About fansubbing

[kakuhiro]

I want to post about fansubbing a bit, just in case if fans decide to go the path as a subber! Any help is needed these days after all.

Hi! Thank you for this insightful post. I hope this will enlighten everyone about how fansubbing works. As a subber, it really pains me how others take for granted our works and break the rules. With the detailed description on how each role works, I hope they would understand now that subbing isn't easy and it takes awful lot of time and effort

Hello there! It's totally okay to post as anon :)
Glad to hear your opinion and I thank you for it! (I assume you are a very experienced fansubber)
Thanks for telling about that part :) I will try to think about it bit more (yeah a 16yo like me is just dumb)
I am kinda curious to which groups you belong to... :)
Thanks for commenting and telling your opinion!

Uwaaaa ERU-ONEECHAAAN! THANKS FOR READING *u*
I have mostly written this from my experience and yeah, totally true with choosing the fonts /flips the fonts
But you can really choose good ones ^^b
You know that feeling when k-timing (replays the syllable milion times again just to check if it's k-timed correctly) LOOOL HAHAHA
Just wanted for other fangirls to know lol so they can join JS hehehe ;)
I also want for people to know what kind of eyesore it can be when someone's just complaining and breaking rules =__=" blah
Really thanks for reading and commenting! ^^

Ooooh~ I wonder what happened that you posted this... :P
But yeah, really interesting point of view. I agree with you on a lot of things you said here, but just like Anonymous said, it is true that it is possible to release good quality and fast subs. Anime subbers banzai! ^0^ Some Jdrama subbing communities release fast subs too, but mostly people complain on us because we're practically too slow compared to the other subbing communities (anime, Kdrama, etc.)

Truth be told, if you stay in this business long enough you just start to think, "Ah, fudge it" whenever people break your rules. =="

Hehehe! I posted this because of some friends being curious about subbing and want to start subbing ne~ LOL 8D
But the main point is, it doesn't depend on the speed of subs at all~ I mean, it doesn't matter at all when the certain project is released. If soon or later, fans shouldn't be complaining... O.o
Haha and yeah, we shouldn't stop subbing just because someone broke our rules :| xD you will get used to it because there will be always rulesbreakers no matter what ;|
