Description
loligeddon with added ENG audio track and Signs/Songs sub track
We're using an edited Commie script, borrowing some lines from Funi's TL.
The notable goals of this release are
-Edit out all the made up NISA localizations (e.g. CPU->goddess)
-Edit out Commie being Commie (i.e. trolling/joking around with the script)
To keep in line with our new typesetting standards, there are now two subtitle tracks
-Regular Typesetting - Commie's typesetting, but without the trolling/joking
Not really sure what happened with eps 1 and 11 but here are the corrected versions: https://mega.nz/#F!uMQFiAoA!izWyd-M4FqMpR_gm6Nhe7Q

I could be mistaken, but the english audio in episode 1 seems to be out of place...
I'm pretty sure the CPU->Goddess thing isn't a 'Made-up NISA Translation'
It's still present in newer media which isn't translated by NISA anymore and with the way Idea Factory and NIS parted ways i doubt they'd want to keep any 'wrong, made up translations' NISA did.
I'm pretty sure that the translation of 'Megami' to 'CPU' is just a thing that fits the theme of it, but CPU wouldn't sound very good in spoken japanese and they have to avoid butthurt religious people throwing a fit over the term 'goddess' being used
@Kiyome
Wasn't aware of episode 11 for I haven't checked/watched the rest of them yet. Thanks for the corrected versions.
@Katyna IFI, unfortunately, uses a lot of ex-NISA employees and localizers tend to like using names and terms from previous companies to remain consistent even if they're not correct.
An example of this would be with Tecmo Koei continuing to use Esty Dee as Esti Erhard's name after they took Atelier from NISA back in 2014-ish (the Plus games for VITA).
@Gogetters Possible, but i'm pretty sure that the term 'CPU' is being used in Japan as well. I vaguely remember Merchandise that feature the Term. Merchandise not sold outside Japan so it wouldn't make too much sense for them to go out of their way to add a term that they don't approve.
