Elfen Lied

Last update on 2012-12-27 by ChrisK | Posted in Completed

Elfen-Lied-Cover

Type: Series (13+1 Episodes)
Video: 1280×720
Audio: Track 1: FLAC 5.1 (24bit) – Japanese
Track 2: AC3 5.1 – English
Track 3: AC3 5.1 – German
Subs: Retail – English (modified)
anime-mx – English (OVA, modified)
Torrent: 720p

Notes:

  • Video and Japanese audio are from the Japanese Blu-rays. 720p only because SD upscale.
  • English dub and sub and German dub are from the German ADV DVDs. Subs were OCRed and modified.
  • No full German subs because they are bad (the dub is much better) and not worth the effort required to fix them up. German signs and songs for the dub are included.
  • The OVA can be considered as episode 10.5. No dubs for it, as it was never released outside of Japan.

    Is there no way that y’all could release without the german so that the files a little smaller for achieving purpose?

    @Gungrave223 You can use MkvToolNix to remove german and english audio.

    What a coincidence, I fell asleep watching the DVDs last night as I was laying in bed and was wondering if there was a decent torrent floating around.

    Thanks for the German audio track.
    I usually watch it in japanese, but it’s nice to have the option if you watch it with friends.
    Dual Audio releases should contain more languages than english if possible.

      I didn’t say that it is good, just that it is better than the German sub from the DVD. But I would still say the dub is okay.

    If any of you guys is interested read the manga its way better
    and goes really beyond the story in the anime.

    Whoa. I found out about the BD release just this week, and now you post this. Thanks. Will replace my Zero-Raws DVD upscale w/ AHQ subs home-mux.

    Some detail has gone missing in the BD release though. I’m not one to care, but I know that a few do.
    DVD vs BD:

    I wish they’d had more budget and episodes to do this one back then. The story is very condensed, and has to bounce around too much. Still, it’s a classic, though quite a disturbing one.

    I’m editing your release to get smaller file sizes but I’m having some problems.
    First, I’m demuxing the mkv.
    After, I’m converting the jpn audio from FLAC 5.1 to AAC 2.0.
    Finally, I merge your video, eng subs and chapters with the AAC audio, decreasing the file size by 50%.
    However, the outputed mkv file doesn’t play.
    I know that the problem is some wrong configuration regarding the extraction/muxing process.
    I know this because when I generate a mkv containing only the video it also doesn’t play.
    MKVtools are version 5.9.0, the latest.
    I’m using the following cmd line to merge:

    mkvmerge -o 01.mkv –language 0:jpn -d 0 video.h264 –chapters chapters.xml –language 0:jpn -a 0 audio.mp4 –language 0:eng -s 0 sub.ass

    Do u have any idea of what I’m doing wrong?

    Thanks in advance

    @gilgamesh, I didn’t had any problems with demuxing and muxing it back on a smaller file sized, oh yeah, I managed to limit the, up to 356MB, that’s the average of all.

    @shi0nmaku, what are you using to mux/demux?
    Because I’m using mkvetract and mkvmerge directly from the command line.
