Katanagatari 03

Due to capping issues, there's no ts available, so for now you get the share raw. Not that many of you could tell the difference anyway ( ̄- ̄)フーン
For those of you keeping track, this episode has 800 lines.

Here ya goes.

Update: And here's the XviD. We'll have a real raw tomorrow so you'll likely see v2 of the HD version tomorrow evening. (XviD version is unaffected by the vfr asshattery that plagues share raws.)

shichika and togame sittin in a tree

And since this only airs once a month, you get a couple did-you-knows today:

togame=rika

sabi hakuhei=kyousuke

Azure_ShockwaveAwesome show! Speedy release!
Magic Acid MimeI noticed on this episode that from 12:36-13:06 there is MASSIVE video lag, and because of that there's a bit of dialogue that was missed. Now, I don't know if I'll end up being the only one with this problem, or if there are other sections of the episode where that happens, but I just thought I'd mention something.
HinamoriGet a better codec. Cheers
Magic Acid MimeI haven't had this type of problem with anything else I watch, so it's not my codec.
AsuraDidn't notice anything at that interval the first time I watched it and checking it twice again I couldn't hear anything that didn't appear to be subbed (I kinda understood most of the words in that segment even without the subs). At like 12:56 or so it does seem like the screen freezes though. But think it's mostly just an illusion from the text sliding suddenly coming to a halt.
Magic Acid MimeI'm thinking the video lag is directly related to the side-scrolling text, because the second time the text shows up (right when they're about to fight) the video freezes up again.

I thought maybe it might be the download I got, since I've grabbed bad files via Megaupload that merely needed a re-download, so I'm in the process of torrenting it straight from the source. Perhaps that might fix it, but I'm certain it isn't me, because I keep my codecs up to date.
DetectiveThanks for the ultra awesome speed release, but I don't like these-did-you-knows. I find them annoying~ That's juuuust me though.
Magic Acid MimeMatter of fact, I just tried CCCP and it did the exact same thing, except instead of just a video lag, there was an audio lag as well.
johnwho are them?
anonymous@Magic Acid Mime: use coreavc for playback or upgrade to a better cpu. The lag is caused by your machine not being able to render the side scrolling scene fast enough. Or you can just download the xvid version when it comes out.
Novasty@Magic Acid Mime
Well here's a way to fix audio or video lagg as i get them all the time, I found it most effective with Media Player Classic,

1. Open the anime in MPC.
2. Pause it once it starts playing.
3. Open Task Manager (To do that either go Ctrl + Alt + Del or just right-click an empty space in the TaskBar and select "Task Manager.")
4. Go to Processes and look for "mplayerc.exe"
5. Right-click it and set priority to "High"

Done, non-lag A/V

Don't go any high teh "high" or the video will just screw up, if High is crashes your player, Try "Above Normal"
Magic Acid MimeThank you for the tip, Novasty. I'll keep that in mind if I have any lag issues with other video files in the future.

But from what it looks like, it was the download I got that was bad. The torrent finished and it works fine. Problem solved. =)
Felix U. FonMany thanks for the release and for your hard work Mazui.
indifferenceThanks...
MrTRanCeEviLThank~
NovastyStill waiting for XVID lolz, cuz my DVD player aint a Blu-ray that plays x264

lcleongthe banner is Angel Beat!
anonymousawesome~ now i really look forward to it XD gotta love girls and swords or girls and guns~
dtoxis it just me or does the xvid not link to the torrent file like it should?
Blackvialit's not just you
dtoxThanks Blackvial, I tried the every other xvid torrent on the site - Same results; couldn't get the torrent file.
Ghostalkerno matter how many times I try, I don't see any lag or any A/V issues.

Awesome release. If their is a v2 release, then I will surely download it.

Thanks alot!
:DUm, I'm having trouble with the Katanagatari 3 xvid download. Instead of a torrent i'm getting a 12.1kb video file, sorry for the bother but :D
dtoxHeh, I finally thought to download the xvid by imputing the url in my torrent client, rather than wait for the .torrent file.

That worked; should have realized it sooner. hope that helps anyone else that was having troubles
BlackvialThanks dtox that does help in downloading the xvid
ProfTBeemerThanks guys, you're the best
:DOh, you're a genius dtox.
gawatThanks guys for continuing and speedsubbing (with quality nonetheless!) this series. :D

Seems the next episode will finally contain a decent amount of action scene, can't wait. :D

Btw for the scrolling text, is there any reason for it to be the only scene with 60FPS? Just curious, I don't have any problem playing it with coreavc.
DemandredDoes anyone know what song is playing just before the end credits? Something about "You gotta lay back," but I'm not finding it with just that.
OKazeThanks for subbing this!
JJohnnyI'm having problems with the xvid torrents for Katanagatari.How can I download them?
MThanks a lot for subbing this, you guys are awesome!
Inara963hi there, firstly thank you so much for all the great work, really appreciate all the effort.
For Katanagatari 03 i can't seem to access the torrent file, when i click on the link it gives me an avi format link not a torrent.
Please help!
arina1992xvid torrent not working :(
Daniel LindDemandred, all music that plays in Katanagatari is composed specifically for it, so you'll have to wait for OST.
AmeyU gota rename and remove the .avi from the back making it .avi.torrent

instead of .avi.torrent.avi
Xypherwoohoo thanks mazui!!
arina1992Amey, I still can't download it
UlrezajRandom mime type issues appeared for some reason. I've fixed it, the torrent links should work now.
arina1992Thanks :D
RakuenThank you for the release and for the xvid!
ActarAmazing, simply amazing. Mazui is definitely one of the top sub groups in my book! (^.^)

EXCELLENT WORK

Oh, DID YOU KNOW, that Togame is voiced by the same Seiyuu that voices Nanoha? (^.^;)
vietnamesewtf with vietnamese rap when he "rape" Togame ???
"ao dai vui , ao dai noi , ao dai cuoi ..."

Anon523I can't believe mazui puts up with all this cancer. If I were on this team I'd ban every faggot in this comment section.
MidgemageWhich is why you're not on the team, jackass.
Janedoe401Thank you soooooo very much for continuing this!!!!! Domo arigatooooh!!

Yataa"-I'll have you fall for me"
*killed by Mazui's awesomeness*
"-So cool.."
rI think it'd be more fun if you put a picture of Nanoha and her older bro. Or Mei and Yuusuke.

Either way, thanks for the subs.
kuizame?first of all, thank you for your release, second, if possible i would like to know which animal a kuizame is,since from what i understood in last month's ep descripsion, Maniwa corps heads are named after animals, so if you would be kind enough please reply
yanggis there a difference between v2 and the regular v?
anonMiku moe? World is Mine.
NorgusKuizame is a shark (shark = same, in the compound that is his name, the 'sa' sound changes to 'za')
kui is from the verb to eat (vulgar version of taberu)
kuizame?Thx Norgus
njamunkyso im sure im not the only one that thinks this....the whole "falling for her" thing he says....does he HIMSELF know what hes talking about in this case? whenever he mentions it, it seems to be rather nonchalant and "matter-of-factly" than an emotional response.

I think hes so dense he doesnt know what the expression refers to, which is very likely. it only adds to his character i guess....a completely dimwitted, yet savant fighter.
kuizame2Maniwa Kuizame

0:17:26 why does he call himself Kuizame of Sabaku — written 'chain' and 'bind'(i dont get the translation chain&bind)

0:28:28 This is why they call me Sabaku Izame, written 'curse' and 'chain'!
rutrothe lay back song is on the yet to be released vol 2 of the ost. (source: japanese amazon site)
vietnameseagain, what with vietnamese rap at the 12:30 ????? Is this an error ?
