Is it better than ANE's TLs?

yes

I liked the LNs, but I think editing eps 13-15 is going to be very difficult because of the LN script.

I thought the ANE version was generally regarded as pretty good?

good for 2010 typesetting, maybe. and there aren't any particularly good subs for the show.

maido.

this is your local govna here to remind you ANE didn't make the subs everyone uses the exact same base since it's the only base available

iirc there's 3 translations (before this). aniplex, gg, and koharubi.

The character commentary if it's the one that's circulating from other releases come off the official retail version.
Perhaps might be by the same guy Jin-kun mentioned.

the original guy but in various text

doin god's work

I LOVE YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH

ane uses gg

coalgirls uses modifed koharubi (unsure the extent of the modifications, but it's CGi so i doubt it's a significant improvement)

ane/cgi both use pem for 14-15

zangafan uses modified ane and coalgirls

the only bd release i'm aware of that uses aniplex's subs for the main series is RH

the commentary subs are aniplex's, and are the only subs available for bake commentary

the commentary subs are aniplex’s

They are? Where can I find an OCR'd version of aniplex's commentary subs?

you can't make me rewatch it! you can't!

Finally, some good food.

CGi's (you have to patch them in, it's a pain in the ass) or zangafan's

i went ahead and uploaded my copy of zangafan's for you

if you want to confirm that these are indeed aniplex's, you can download the original PGS from here

yabai

Today's emotion is tentative wonderment. A bit like when UTW started on Nise. I hope I didn't jinx your flow with that reference, because these are very nice indeed. Thank you.

Thank you, motbob

Finally, someone is saving bake. Thanks a lot motbob

Hopefully there will be batch of this in 5 years. Thanks for the release.

Nice.
Thanks for doing this.

Finally a good english release for this show. I cannot help with the typeset but I might have something useful for you, I’ll try to reach you on IRC sooner or later.

Thank you for the release MTBB.Was hoping to rewatch the series and now I can do it.
I'll check this out.

No to disrespect your release but I found some time ago someone made their own subs version from different releases. Not sure if the script its more accurate or not but I'll leave the link here in case someone is interested: https://web.archive.org/web/20191028163730/http://kitsunekko.net/dirlist.php?dir=subtitles%2FMonogatari+All+Seasons+Modified+Batch%2F

I wouldn't even credit Aniplex for the commentary if I were you, I've had to rewrite and retime every single line.

Also, Bake BDs have the original 4-koma styled TV versions of the preview quizzes as specials, there are some barebones subs for them and they're 15 sec each, you should do them for completion's sake.

This is utterly fantastic, I-wish-you-had-a-Patreon levels of awesome. Thank you so much!

and yet no one wants to save owari s2

@Skullcrane886 from the .txt
" To briefly mention my sources, it's mostly Commie modified (main font isn't montara either) [...]"

This dude didn't really made his own subs, he just edited others.

Wew it's happening! Thanks notbob-!

and yet no one wants to save owari s2

Just wait for herkz till... The fuck do I know?
2023 maybe?

I have some scripts that may be useful to you. By the way, why don't use DeadNews raws?

Mawen is smaller and about the same quality, with plenty of good AA/deband. However, feel free to make screenshot comparisons that show Beatrice's higher filesize is worth it.

Also, I promise you all that no scripts you post are going to be useful to me.

@motbob
Maybe I'll do it later, now I'm at work.
If you're interested here is an old comparisons Afternoon Naps Empire vs Beatrice-Raws.

mawen1250&Natsuki — this guys from VCB-S right? VCB-S always have a lack of bitrate because they do 1 GB/episode.

Broadly speaking, ANE debanded heavily (for good reason) and therefore lost detail. Mawen is more like Beatrice when it comes to the level of deband.

@motbob
Here is a small comparison mawen1250 vs Beatrice. What do you think?

Looks like Beatrice did some rescaling (?) that caused sharpening but also ringing.

Mawen handled the aliasing and banding more thoroughly.

Comparison 5 is the sort of scene where detail would get completely wiped out if you weren't careful with debanding, and it looks like neither release has much less detail than the other.

So mawen looks like a fine choice for the smaller filesize, or even putting that aside.

remind me of this at the next release

Beatrice:

• Better grain retention
• Increased clarity from rescaling
• More detail

• A bit more banding leftover
• Larger filesize

Mawen:

• Much less grain
• Softer due to a lack of rescaling
• Less detail

• Less banding leftover
• Smaller filesize

If you overlook the filesize, the choice should be obvious imo.

Treating releases more favorably because they have some degree of increased sharpening means heading down a very dangerous road.

Anyone is free to slap my subs onto Beatrice video and release it if they feel strongly enough about the difference in image quality.

Treating releases more favorably because they have some degree of increased sharpening means heading down a very dangerous road.

Of course, but the increased sharpness in beatrice's encode is not only subtle but was also from rescaling so theres really no issue there.

Thanks for the amazing release, hope you guys find time to do some more for Bake. Gods knows it needs it.
