    I’m always in favor of no ordered chapters but that is just my.

    Anyway…exciting news and can’t wait for the release 🙂

    Ohhh what I did have something semi constructive to say > <

    Any particular reason why you when with crf18 for 1080? Usually you do 16 if I'm not mistaken which is always a good choice. Just curious.

    • coalgirls writes:

      Actually, recently I’ve been doing 16-18 since a higher crf will remain visually lossless at higher resolutions.

    Thanks Coalgirls, this is one of the series I wanted to see, luckely you’re doing it ^^

    Will you upload the ISOs after the project would be finished?

  5. coalgirl writes:

    That’s not really my call. It isn’t being shipped to me, since my internet sucks. That’s why Lain hasn’t been uled yet either.

    On second thought, I read your lovely about page tp7.

    The only encoding group we do respect and love (except Yousei-raws – they are cool guys, but still “raws”) is THORAnime. Tormaid, CG, Kira and other groups who don’t really know what they’re doing in terms of encoding, won’t get respect from us.

    So how about no. You really have quite a bit of nerve to ask that.

  6. Sayer writes:

    Owned fuck head =P God that was funny. I don’t see how they don’t know how to encode. Everything is generally in the perfect range, Coalgirls being ideal, Tenshi is a tad overkill on the bit rates but it’s done for the better quality (You may argue it’s not noticeable, depends on the setup etc)..Mind you I still grab ’em.

    Holy shit, what a bottom feeding prick.

    Tp7, how do you find the nerve to ask for something from someone you openly disrespect? Go find your dignity, if you ever had any, damn.

    Wouldn’t asking Taka for their scripts solve the sub-problem?

  9. minedun6 writes:

    Can you, if I send an “ass” file, mux also a french version for the Bluray version of shiki !!!!
    What I mean is that I send the ass file, and what you have to do is just to mux the English version and the french one just like in some films (Black Rock Shooter) !!!
    Of course, the ass file will be completely subbed, completely timed, edited, checked, yu’ll just have to mux ^_^
    Would you like to do that for me ^_^ ???

  10. Iron Sand G writes:

    ^why don’t you just remux the french subs yourself when you get them?
    you want CGI’s release to have french included by default?

  11. Mr Lucipher writes:

    Great news, looking forward to these releases.

    Do you know when episodes 13+ will be available to you?

  12. Horse writes:

    Ooo! Any chance for nice rips of the soundtracks? All that is OUT THERE is 32kHz(yes, 32kHz) mp3s…

  13. minedun6 writes:

    Yes, I’m already doing it !!!
    But……………
    Well, this is not a problem !!!!
    I just extracted lhe ass file and now, all I have to do is just to translate to french ^_^
    I’ve already finished the first ^_^

  14. coalgirl writes:

    minedun6, I usually only mux in the tracks you’d find on the BD + English.

  15. Kat writes:

    Can’t wait <3

  16. minedun6 writes:

    @coalgirl: now that ep 1 is ready, all I need is your permission to up and post it on a french site ^^

  17. minedun6 writes:

    ChrisK, coalgirl and maybe others that I don’t know, may I have the permission ????

  18. minedun6 writes:

    Thank you, but, also, can I put your Team name on the release ^_^ ????
    We’re talking about respect of your woek ^_^

    Dear Coalgirls,

    You just made me a happy panda. Good reason for a re-watch. Shiki and Durarara are the best new series in 2010 (imnsho).

    Btw, any chance for a Durarara release?

  20. Anon writes:

    @Amu-pyon
    Durarara only got a DVD release, no BDs.

  21. Anonymous writes:

    mfw people request coalgirls to do shit when they specifically say “Coalgirls – We will do what we want, and do not care about your opinion.”

    Fucking idiots.

    way to mess it up for people that wanted the bdmv tp7 you douchebag. even if cg is not perfect they are better than your shitty fansubs

    There are plenty of great encoders out there. THORA isn’t the only group doing stuff; it is certainly the most overrated one, though, and by far even, because of fanbois like yourself. A number of encoders are way better than them. But you wouldn’t know. If I am to trust what I see on your beautiful web page and what google tells me, you only started encoding like yesterday. There are people who have been encoding since you were a toddler, in the stone age of video, and you should show them some respect, regardless of it being your website or not.

    Now, if you’d like to offend coalgirls another group on your website, I guess that’s your call to make, but coming here to ask nicely for favors when you’re being so nice behind their backs is, at the very least, retarded. GTFO.

    @coalgirls
    I hope this idiot does not change your plans. Someone who claims THORA knows what they are doing and you don’t, but can’t even provide arguments, CLEARLY doesn’t have a brain.

  24. me writes:

    If you don’t like what you see here, why not just keep it to yourself and don’t download it? I for one greatly enjoy the timely manner of the releases and the quality is, for me, perfect.
    Okay, Tenshi’s stuff is a little on the big side for me personally, but I still mostly get it if I have the space to spare.
    I used to only use Thora for my HD fix, but that was because I knew of no other groups doing decently at BluRay-Encodes.

    Sweet! Shiki on BD, can’t wait. I never finished it but now you’ve given me a reason. Thanks.

    So, I guess this means no Ookami?

    > So how about no. You really have quite a bit of nerve to ask that.

    To be fair, you didn’t pay for the BD’s your donators did. So, its the least you could do

    • coalgirl writes:

      Our donators paid for us to make a BD rip. If they wanted to donate for the BDMV, they’d have bought it themselves.

  28. ChrisK writes:

    Who is tp7 anyway that WE need his respect …

    Of course we are still planing to release the Blu-rays … at some point. Make sure to follow our Twitter to see when.

    LOL You completely missed my point. You are taking money/donations from people to buy blu-rays, the least you can do is upload it back for the donators. They are the ones who bought it not you.

    You claim to not-for-profit right? You are keeping the bd’s for yourself ;o

    • ChrisK writes:

      Please keep in mind that this is a ripping group with the aim to provide rips. Not a buyers club to supply people with a cheap way of getting Blu-rays.

      Also, no one of us knows enough japanese to watch Anime without subs. So there isn’t much we can do with the Blu-rays anyway (except from ripping them and put subs on the rips). We would be happy to sell the Blu-rays after ripping them to regain some of the money to buy other Blu-rays. But we currently don’t really know how to do that.

    Hey Chris a quick reply to this :

    What you could do is rip them and then put them on the site up here for sale, I'm sure you'd have a few people interested in buying them, if you guys are interested in getting rid of them.

    • ChrisK writes:

      Yeah, we are currently evaluating various ways of how to sell them. That is one way, another one is through eBay. But we would sell them as a complete set anyway, so this gets only relevant in 5 months.

    Yep, it’s on Share.

  34. anonycat writes:

    Great, no one answered the initial question, lol.
    Personally, I don’t care if it’s option 1, 2 or 5. But, since those previews haven’t been in the TV version, I think it would be best to cut them out.

  35. MikeP writes:

    @anonycat
    The post was only edited today with the question.

    Anyway, I suggest option 2. Previews are mostly pointless but you might as well leave the episodes “whole”.

  36. Nettosama writes:

    2, 3 or 5 IMO, I would like the entire released content, if u dont like it, fastforward it.

  37. Perplexing writes:

    I never watch the previews as is. Personally I would rather you cut them out as I am more concerned about getting this show done in HD.

  38. banger writes:

    i think releasing the previews in the episodes without subs is the best choice. i know i’d like to watch them raw rather than not at all, as chrisk did with the occult gakuin specials.

  39. Wr4tH writes:

    Anything but 4 is fine, maybe releasing them apart and link them as ordered chapters, so it would be easier to add subs later. I’m not a professional translator nor do I speak Japanese fluently (English is not even my mother tongue) but I happen to do my own release of all One Piece episodes from raws and have to translate every preview since they’re not in the base subs I use. I’ll probably translate the previews for myself if you release them unsubbed and would be glad to share my translation if you deem it worthy.
    Thank you very much for your great releases.

  40. Merushi writes:

    I don’t care about previews. Seriously, who watches them anyway, if you’re really eager to see what’s next, just watch the next episode. It’s a BD release, so no need to wait a week ’til the next airs.
    I would just leave them raw at the end of the episode. If there really are people who want to see them they can, but I guess most of us just skip it and watch the next episode. 🙂
    But I wouldn’t mind option 1, 3 or 5, as long as it doesn’t take ages to release while you guys, and most of us too, find it ready to be released.

  41. Sayer writes:

    ‘Wait until another group releases it and steal their preview TL’ That just sounds funny when you say it.

    I’m down with with 1 since I don’t care about previews, but 2 honestly would be the logical choice. Someone will probably release the subs for the previews sooner or later.

    QQ: Do people actually watch the previews before they jump to the next episode? o.O

  42. CTS writes:

    I haven’t seen any other vampire based anime other than Vampire Knight and a few episodes of Blood+. So I’m gonna download this hoping this is a good series. Great job as always CG.

  43. Scarf writes:

    The next episode previews are unnecessary, just leave them as extras.. unsubbed for now, subbed if someones gets around to it latter on…

  44. futz writes:

    1. Cut out the previews. Please.
    I never watch the preview anyway.

  45. zed writes:

    I’m for 2. Release episodes with unsubbed previews

  46. Anoki writes:

    I think you should just cut them out. I mean if you are downloading these, then you are probably going to watch them within a certain time of each other and previews will just add to the filesize. They are not needed imo.

  47. Grizzly writes:

    I’m not bothered one way or the other by the lack of subbing, or previews all together. You guys are the ones encoding the series, you guys make the call. IMO given that the previews are not part of the major series dialogue subbing them may be more work than warranted. Whether they come in as unsubbed extras, well I doubt it would hurt anything.

  48. cuvia writes:

    I also suggest option two, since ppl will still be watching the next episode in its entirety so having previews is more suitable for TV releases than BDs or DVDs. Cutting the previews off would also be a liable option, but some would rather have the entire episode “complete” with preview.
    And in another case, when some other group releases the previews subbed, you could easily make a patch to include this translation or simply release a new script to be muxed in by those who prefer to do so.

  49. Mr Lucipher writes:

    Personally, I’d rather have the previews cut out since I’ve alreadys een the series.

  50. IZEROII writes:

    Just go 1 or 2 preferably 2 so there isn’t any cutting and what not.
