I quote...I'm Italian and I always download AonE subs of Naruto...now it has been licensed in the USA, but not in Italy (we have only the manga here), so I'm really glad to AonE. [img]i/expressions/heart.gif[/img]
I like your relases because they are hight quality, I'm patience and don't like speedsubs. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

hi all, been watching aone/anbu naruto subs since ep1, love the quality, though i agree with others, a bit more speed would be nice, maybe i am wrong but i remember when we got episodes 2-3 days after shown on tv, no more, but i am not whining, i think its worth the wait for a good subbing

thanks, though i admit i prefer not to cross lines like subbing shows after licensing, continueing to do so does make fansub community look bad, which could be bad for its future, they can be patient with cease/decist for now but could get tired of it if they see too often groups ignoring licenses, they may be worried about making the fanbase mad, but with so many people seeing it on cartoon network they wont need the core fans to make a good sell. 20000 people is nothing compared to what i think they will sell.

after saying that i do admit i am also nervous how they will treat the show, i wish for it to be unedited on tv, that guy with the second petition is irritating acting like dumbing something down so everybody can see it is prefering to keeping integrity so people can see naruto for what it really is even if a few less people see it. Keeping true to original is not purist, or elitest, its just loving the art form, its what we are all here for after all, there is blood and seriousness in that show enough that it should go to adult swim, it may be a childrens show in japan, but it to me is a teens show here, and with its blood and death, which few shows have, i wonder how they will deal with it on toonami. i dont think i am purist to not want it distorted, i dont think the original creator wants that either.

I will continue to watch your fansubs because i dont want to wait 2+ years to catch up to the current ep in japan, and i dont catch cartoon network, where i would then only be able to see the dub, i love japan voices, and learning japan jokes and such, fansubs present them and explain them better then american dub companies due, though i have seen occasions of good american distro stuff.

and one more thing, i saw posts on ANN about fansubbers not caring about the companies that make anime, odd people over there, i dont know about the people of gotwoot, but i think fansubbers show many anime that dont get picked up for years, or not at all, that i otherwise wouldnt be able to see, they arent hurting the companies there, also i spend over $2000 a year on anime while downloading fansubs, i support the industry. and i know of others that do also, whether my type is a minority or not i dont know, i also like niche genres that mainstream dont.

also about fansubbers thinking we have a right to anime for free, maybe so, though i still think most fansub watchers buy plenty of anime and/or merchandise supporting the industry plenty.
my thoughts: i want to pay for anything i find value in, these companies actually dont deserve my money til i find value in what they are selling, i already said how much anime i buy, i like others just dont like having to wait years to see new eps, once a creation is in the open, it wants to be seen, if when they release the dvd i like what they have done, and i find value i will buy it, if not i wont, you can say what you like, but nobody owes anybody anything, i to be honest havent seen one piece since it was licensed, though i love the series, i heard a few eps dubbed and my brain exploded, i am refusing to buy the DVD even if i can get uncut subs on it, i am nervous if there subs are even up to par and it will lead them to believe that i like the dub as they dont know why i bought it, just that i did, so they havent lost money because i watched the subs, bur because i dont find value in there work.

Sorry if i break the thread, i wanted to get alot off of me, i am not good with expressing myself, hope i did a good job, good luck, hope you get to sub til either the end of the series or when viz catches up to current. darn, one more thing, i think its only right to show a bit of ethics, and if you think viz did a good sub job stop providing torrents for any eps that are released on dvd, whenever that is.

Wow. I return, and the world is upside down. Who would have thought that Naruto could have been licenced? It is almost as weird as Mut giving out complements. Personally, I wish ADV had picked up Naruto. ShoPro is going to kill it. They're the guys that gave us Inuyasha. Remember how THAT turned out? For example, Inuyasha's trade mark attack of "Sankon tessou" (soul scattering iron claws) was change to "Iron reaver soul stealer" in the dub. This does not bode well for Kage Bunshin fans. Though, I have to admit, as time goes on they are getting more things right; for most of the series they called the Saimyousho "poison insects". But this does not redeem them, no, not by a long shot. ADV brought us "The Slayers". I was amazed at the translation job theydid with that. The dragon slave incantation was translated PERFECTLY, even though it changed during the run of the series.

While I really don't have to worry about the subbing (being Japanese and all that), I would like to NOT have to translate everything to english (it taking over my speech damnit) as I watch anime. I support the fansubbing industry (can you call it that?) 100%, and would like to see it continue.

damn thats one long post, lol
It is good to know that someone will continue to sub naruto even though it was licensed

I think TW would be motivated with this joint. And AonE wouldnt let them slack either.

That won't happen. TW is like ANBU; once a series get licensed they drop it.

[psycoSAM]

I was in the gotwoot mIRC room talking about the licensing and AonE's position to continue subbing (which will keep me from jumping off a bridge) but there's the likely possibility VIZ will send out the legal letters. What will be the likely course of action if a letter comes AonE's way? (understandibly and appropriately decide to discontinue subbing or endure the hardships for the devoted fans?)

[basey44]

ciber already told us what will happen
hell blow up the servers and move to canada, like any naruto lover would, self sacrifices must be made sometimes

[Luchio]

Sure, move in Canada, lots of Naruto fans here!

[MyStiX]

aone is the fuckin shit! if i knew you guys id blaze you out so sickkkkkkkkkkk

[diskrnguyjl236]

You know what i think? I think that Americans as lazy as they are, are going to get too lazy to edit all the killing/blood that they will eventually move it to adult swim. =)

[Lefty]

Have we forgoten how much blood FMA has and they happly edited all of that out for Toonami run. So get used to the fact of an edited Naruto for TV.
