>if you get the 1080p. - Is the 720p that much worse?

In Funi's case, yes, because they encode the 720p with a crappy fixed bitrate. Always get 1080p for Funi.

K it must have either been my eyes or just that one episode of Laplace, seems the levels on other Funi-HS releases are fine now, but colours are still a bit off sometimes as you said. Now just for those hardsubs and terrible translations...

Yep well
fwiw I thought Funi's Laplace subs were pretty decent.

We need low effort groups who OCR FUNi stuff and time it to raws, because holy shit FUNi is full cancer.

Isn't that what Senketsu is
Frankly if you're not going to change the subs you're probably better off using direct Funi rips because in most cases they look better than TV if you get the 1080p. Yes, really.

*meant effort not effect in my earlier question but I guess you figured it out* So why is it that fansubbers seem less willing to work on a funi release?

Well, on average their scripts tend to be worse, and you have to type them out...
Their Waremete and Inakon were pretty good, though.

How much more effect is it to work on a funimation release compared to CR?

Really depends on the script quality tbh

In anime when a character says another characters name, should you sub it as "you" or ""?

Whatever works in context? Just don't use the name every single time if you can help it

Why is the Fate/stay night loud and obnoxious fanbase so bitter and unhappy about UBW, again? It's probably my favorite adaptation of anything visual novel related. It delivered in more ways than I could ever really imagine.

Haven't I already been asked this exact question? I wasn't even aware they *were* bitter about it.

Why not kill UTW with a final Meguca release for the recap movies? You only have to copy paste the old scripts...

And encode them. And get them timed. And update the typesetting. And do songs. And QC.
FYI, QC alone took me ~6 hours for Rebellion, so multiply that by two and then add on all the other stuff...

Did you cry with NNBR? Because I did cry, I'm so glad it's back.

[Xythar] oh god renge stop killing my heart

Why does UBW episode 1 say "Winters Day, A Fateful Night" while the episode itself says "A Winter's Day, A Fateful Night"?

I dunno. Maybe that got missed.

About that TV overlay on Funimation, remember that there are quite many of ways to achieve it. It just happens that that detail-based mask works pretty well with Funimation. Just wanted to add this info to your ask.fm feed.

Fair enough

3 translators for symphogear? How does that work?

vale is the translator with Nanu on TLC and fnord on songs (though he went and got smashed instead this week so vale did them too)

Really? How does that work then? I thought the process was simply masking the logo with a clean source.

The logo is only alpha blended with the background, not completely opaque, so it's generally possible to remove by blending an inverse of the logo with the image. Or that's how I understand it, anyway.
You need to already have an accurate mask of the logo for it to work (which you can build up by analysing the video) and it doesn't always work, but Japanese TV logos are generally faint enough that it's doable.

So wait, you said Daiz removed the station logo from Gangsta but where did he find a clean source?

You don't need a clean source to delogo. That's the point of delogo.

Wait, wasn't Gakkou Gurashi announced by CR? Will fnord still do an original translation?

Sounds like it

How come you hate Symphogeah so much? I mean, Hibiki just fucking punched a mountain out of their way and then suplexed the ship, how can you not like this?

I feel you may be receiving your information from an unreliable source
