Oh yeah…it’s here. Thanks

I really enjoyed this episode, thanks to all involved.

So just yesterday I found out you guys were subbing Layzner.
And today, this is released.
Godspeed, my co/m/padres.

Thanks for this Layzner episode.
Anyway, I heard you want to know what to sub next on /m/. Someone mentioned Govarian, and I actually want to see that series subbed as well, at least one episode of it.
You see, Govarian isn’t really super. Sure it has aliens coming to earth because of lack of resources on their home planet, but the feel of the show is very much like a real robot one maybe except for the perverted humor thrown at times.
The series has some history as it was Go Nagai’s attempt to catch up with the real robot boom, but the show unfortunately sank like a stone, leaving a bit of a following only in South Korea. One of the major reasons could be that it was animated by Knack, the studio that Go Nagai worked with after his quarrels with Toei over Gaiking. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a good animation studio. They still seem to exist under a different name today, and doesn’t seem to animate anymore. Anyway the second reason was Knack’s request to use Mazinger’s head for Govarian. We all know how that turned out.
Long story short, bad animation, great ost, and interesting psychic powers. Apparently, there are some good quality raws on Open Nap, better than the other ones available via direct links.

Actually, I take back what I said about the series being super. It’s more like a hybrid. The show does tend to take itself seriously. There is a major character death, and there’s one brutal scene that reminded me of ideon, where a kid gets squashed by a giant mecha in front of his mother.
January 18, 2011 at 1:37 am |
I’d say Dancougar is kind of a hybrid, maybe something like that? Sounds cool, for now though let’s wait to see some current projects finish!
January 18, 2011 at 9:10 am |
I think we need to finish Layzner first before we even begin to think of what to sub next. I’ve actually seen a third or so of Govarian, the translating logistics of it are very different to Layzner.
January 18, 2011 at 9:36 am |
Does “different” mean “easier” by any chance?
Also I’m amazed that anybody else cares about the machinegun-wielding red Mazinger as well.
The only thing I really know about it is its cameo in the Mazinkaiser promos.

Different sort of issues, mainly making out what’s being said. Layzner at least has fairly clear dialogue (except Phoron and Rei) which can usually be solved by throwing a dictionary at it until it submits. Govarian has simpler dialogue but it’s a lot less clear.

You do NOT want to know how many years I have been waiting for an English translation of Eiji’s argument with that freaking computer! Great episode, thanks again, guys.
January 18, 2011 at 5:28 am |
I checked this on a cynical whim and HELL YEAH, LAYZNER 22!
You guys are /m/en among /m/en.
That picture is cool too, where’d you get it?
January 18, 2011 at 5:32 am |
*21
Should not post while DSing
January 18, 2011 at 9:12 am |
Found it on /m/ along with the rest of my Layzner picture stash, didn’t have any screenshots of this ep lying around.
January 18, 2011 at 2:09 pm |
Now I personally only want Layzner to be done XD
Anyway, if I can give you a hint for the future, what do you think about the conclusive Dancougar oav series Blazing Epilogue? Only four episodes and no one translated them yet 🙂
January 18, 2011 at 6:42 pm |
I like Dancouga, from what I’ve heard that OVA is a travesty to the rest of the series.
January 19, 2011 at 5:41 pm |
Hell yeah! Anyone know what the Layzner OVA is about? I have it, but i don’t dare look at it.
January 19, 2011 at 8:18 pm |
It’s a summary of the series, the 3rd one has the planned ending for the series as it was cut short due to a sponsor pulling out.
January 19, 2011 at 10:37 pm |
Yeah, the final episode of Layzner is a bit of a mess, due to the sponsor pulling out there’s clearly about four episodes worth of story skipped between episodes 37 and 38, and the ending is sort of left up in the air.
OVA 1 is a recap of the first story arc, OVA 2 is a recap of the second story arc and OVA 3 is an expanded finale with new animation that fills in some of the missing story material and gives the story a more definitive ending.
January 19, 2011 at 11:05 pm |
I believe Blue Fixer plan to sub the OVAs at some point.
January 19, 2011 at 11:57 pm |
Very cool, I look forward to seeing Blue Fixer’s subtitle of the Layzner OVAs eventually.
Of course we’ll still never know how the cliffhanger ending of episode 37 was resolved…even OVA #3 doesn’t reveal what happened!
January 23, 2011 at 7:18 pm |
Please never give up on Layzner, I hope you complete this show.
Much thanks for all your work msubs rule!
January 29, 2011 at 1:37 am |
I knew if I kept checking, it’d appear one day,
YAHOOOOOOOO!
January 29, 2011 at 2:54 am |
I happened upon this during my travels and figured I’d share it with you all:

It has, among other things, scans of the artbooks that came with the DVD boxset.

Finally! It’s been worth the wait! Thanks

“episode 22 will take substantially less long to complete short of nuclear war breaking out.”
