I can probably speak for Lovely by using the tried and true excuse of laziness!
I asked her about this last week and she honestly said that she may actually not get around to ever doing them either. I don't remember if she had a reason other than laziness... ;D

Well, laziness is a part of it. But honestly, I'm just mentally exausted from working on them and I have a LOT of things going on in my "real life" right now. I feel that if I work on the comparisons any longer I'll grow to dislike the series and I DO NOT want that (Shaman King is my favorite anime series.) I feel like my point for doing the episode comparisons is pretty much over. There is an uncut release (sorta). The Voice actors have drasticly improved over time, and the script isn't so horribly off as some other 4kids shows (*cough*One Piece*cough*). That, and letters like the following kind of take all the joy of things away:  That isn't to say that I don't get a LOT of support and nice mails though ^^;. It's just the stupid ones like that that stand out sometimes. I should really write an official announcement on the site proper saying "I'm done.", but yes, laziness comes into play concerning that. This isn't to say that I'll NEVER write a comparison again, just... probably not. My apologies to everyone concerned. And thank you ALL for reading them. As a side note, I really WOULD like to go back and fix up a few things in the older comparisons someday. The first block of comparisons seem too "bloggy" and not professional enough. Ah, but that's just me babbling. oh! As another side note. If any of you would like the original fansub scripts I have them all in a .zip file. Just pm me your e-mail adress and I'll send them to you. (Credit goes to Garnet-chan for the scripts.) |

Hey, Lovely-sama, I remember you mentioning in one of the threads that maybe one of us could try and write a comparison , heck, it could be a group activity. I know it's not a very good idea but I thought I just might bring it up. But there's also the thing that the un-cut DVD's may not be released in the UK (I havn't seen them around anywhere and even when you order them off amazon.co.uk they still need to import them and not everyone has a region 1 DVD player)...please don't shoot *runs off*

what! you mean there's not much of a chance there'll be more comparisons! oh well. lovely, ill do the rest of the comparisons! ill do the comparisons then email them to you. then you can just copy and paste it on a page.
P.S. on the comparisons page, it says "episode 27". however, there's no comparison page for it. why'd you put it there if there wasnt a comparison? im not mad, just curious. (see resurie, i stopped the sof jokes)

(see resurie, i stopped the sof jokes) It's just a place marker. It would bother the heck out of me to see a numbered list that goes... 26, 29 . I'm just anal that way. I WAS going to go back and do a comparison for it eventually, but that didn't pan out ^^;. I don't mind others making a comparison, that would be pretty cool actually. But I do have some standards. 1- grammar 2- Don't be anal overexagerating example: "OMG Anna's voice soooo sucks. In the original she said "how are you?" in that scene and the dub made her say "How are you TODAY." GOD! Why do they always add stupid dialoge like that!" 3- Don't be rude. That is, don't have every other sentence calling for 4kids blood and rallying warcries of burning their buildings. I've been trying to keep the comparisons as polite and professional as posible. But sure, if you guys want to send in a comparison feel free  . |

I can't believe that! it's the EXACT SAME LINE, just translated slightly differently. one sees it often when comparing liscenced subs to fansubs. yeah, some people are strange like that... I think you do well on the comparisons though, Lovely. I often refer to them when writing my SK fanfics. |
