These guys are pretty boring to watch tb/h.

Zombie is the hero we need, not the one we deserve. He does the hard work of timing and doing a first rough translation of an episode. Then it's passed onto others who do the final finishing touches. And for this is he given a reward? A special thanks? No, he's hunted and attacked and called mean names. but he can survive. He's tougher than that. He's the silent unsung hero of the GCCX translation community. We'd be nowhere without him.

"18th year"? Shit, that makes me feel old. I still remember them celebrating the 10th anniversary back in 2013, with that huge Budokan show and everything.

>>7246000

Ogawa sama!

>>7246012
I want Ogawa-San to jerk my dick raw with those harsh gold fingers.

>>7246012

>>7246567

She was in the Russian special? I didn't notice her. Maybe I hadn't been introduced to her so she didn't stand out. But I do remember a female among them. Why is the production company PR lady doing so much in person stuff?

is there a rip of the RE2 episodes available? I know they're not subbed yet

>>7246012
Which episode was this? Or which season if it was a recurring thing?

>>7247601
It's not unusual for PR to go on trips when the crew is out in public. They keep putting her on camera because she's cute and a good sport about everything.

>>7247876
That's from one of the fortune-telling segments, first half of the current season.

>>7247886
thanks

>>7247906
You're welcome.

Lol you guys would simp so hard for Ogawa. If she opened an onlyfans with just videos o fher feet you'd all sign up.

>>7246000
Its been so long bros. I remember being excited for new episodes of GCCX back in the early 2010s. Fuck. Can't believe Arino has been going this whole time.

>>7248457
Yes, and?

>>7248457
yhea i dont see a problem with that

>>7245962
comfy episode desu

bump desu

>>7245962
Why is dicussion of this nip and his show allowed but dicussion of Based Screenwave Cinemassacre and AVGNs new band Rex Viper isn't?

>>7246000
They'll surely make it to 20 years, but I wonder how long they'll keep it going past that.

>>7245968
Yup

>>7253453
No.

>>7245968
>kabuto
zombiekabuto? lmao that tard knows like 3 languages and sucks at every single one, talk about spreading yourself thin

>>7245962
Thank you based Goose! Happy New Year!

>>7254116
at this point arino has to make more money from GCCX than his comedy stuff, right?

>>7245962
Is there a translation for Ghouls n' Ghosts episode 34 from season 5? The one I downloaded is untranslated.

>>7255154

Yes. It's in the big pack. I'm more shocked you found a raw on your own.

>>7255154
>>7255464
In case he actually got it from a subbed batch, that's one of Clover's softsubs. Make sure your video player can show them and has them turned on.

>>7255628
Yeah my bad, I didn't notice it was an .mkv extension.

>>7255053
You know, I wouldn't be surprised if that'd be the case. Or maybe even that Game Center CX (and streaming on Twitch I believe) is what gives him the bucks to continue comedy as a sort of hobby (similar to how Vinesauce became profitable enough Vinny can afford to follow his rock band dream, while playing vidya became his job)

>>7255956
Arino and Hamaguchi stream on YouTube. I doubt they know anything about Twitch.

>>7245962
Marchen Maze subs when?

>>7257109
newzealand story subs when
earthworm jim subs when

>>7257549
Goose already said no one of the staff cared for Earthworm Jim.

>>7257549
I've got a mostly finished machine translated script for all text on screen, but I can't do spoken JP outside of doing it one word at a time, and I won't bother wasting my time. If anyone has a copy of the closed captioning from the airing that I could work with, please let me know. Or do the JP not do closed captioning?

>>7257771
>Or do the JP not do closed captioning?
They do have captions for reruns of GCCX. An anon uploaded some JP TV subtitle files a few threads ago, but none of them are for Earthworm Jim.

>>7257771
>machine translated
Don't do this. It'll be garbage.

>>7257000
Yeah, I meant YouTube. My bad.

>>7257549
I was considering doing Earthworm Jim myself as a one-off thing but finding someone who actually knows Japanese AND is willing to work on such a project isn't easy.

>>7257982
I had no plans on releasing it into the wild, I'm not Zombie. I just wanted to see how "bad" a machine translation is. From what I've seen so far, it seems pretty damn legit. There's a few lines that it just doesn't know how to translate, but still pretty good otherwise.

ぜひみんなにツカって
ほしいのじや
^ has confused the shit out of the machine translator. It can't decide which of three different sentences(with different meanings) it is. "I want it/I want everyone to give their all/I want everyone to have a good time."

>>7259173
None of those is correct.

>>7260029
No kidding. When the machine translator chokes, that means it doesn't know what it really is. But for most of the written text it seems to be just fine.
死んだ?
Did you die?
阿部さん死にましたね
I died Abe.
嘘! 入れない!
No! I'm not going in!

>>7260123
I can't verify if those are actually correct without having seen the specific moments. While they're not totally wrong, all three can be interpreted in more than one way. I imagine you're smart enough to fix them if that were the case since...

>死んだ?
>Did you die?
Could also mean "Did I die?"

>阿部さん死にましたね
>I died Abe.
Could also mean "You died, Abe."

>嘘! 入れない!
>No! I'm not going in!
I would need the reading "入れない", depending on whether it was "hairenai" or "irenai" it could mean all sorts of different things. No way of knowing for sure without context. The first word 嘘 (uso) means "lie(s)" and is often used in a "No freaking way!", "Hell no!" or "WTF" kind of exclamation. But a simple "No!" gets the point across.

>>7259173
if you have accurate subtitle timings i say fuck it, put it out (as softsub). someone can use it down the road if they decide to translate the episode for real

>>7245962
I'm watching this pizza pop episode and decided to try the game. Goddamn that melee attack is awful.

>>7259173
Just release it, Goose has already shown they're willing to take your work, fix it up and not give you credit for anything.

>>7261164

Pizza Pop was made by Arc System Works of all people. They were under contract by toy manufacturers to make video games in their early years.

I like this segment because it is using the retro game for its intended purpose and having fun with it.

Has anyone else noticed that sometimes the console's cables aren't plugged in?

>>7263213

what's not plugged in?

>>7257736
AFAIK someone clarified that no-one specifically cared enough to make it a priority. Same could probably be said for a bunch of games.

>>7260814
If it's mainly for timing the original sub would probably work fine too.

>>7260728
Yeah, the first two were when Arino walks off the edge of a cliff and the screen goes black. Abe asks the first line, and Arino responds with the second line. The third line is Arino struggling to get the underwater bulb to the exit before time runs out. I could have made it "Shit, I'm not going in!", but I figured a simple translation was better than one with too much emphasis.

>>7260814
It would probably create more work for Goose to redo all the translations than to start with a blank slate. Plus it might make them even less likely to work on EWJ subs, so I really don't wanna do that.

>>7261186
In all honesty Zombie, you should be glad ANYONE is using your work period. It's worthless as a translation and holds no value beyond what the raw would have, so at least someone is actually using your shit.

SPELUNKER SUB WHEN

It's already too late.

>>7263213
I can very faintly see that the right plastic piece that encloses the controller port is missing. That means it's highly likely it's modded for AV out which makes sense considering they'd want a cleaner image to record, and if I was Arino I wouldn't want to stare at RF everyday.
So unless the camera pans over and it shows no AV cable coming from the hole, then it's unplugged.
My AV modded famicom, the AV cables come out of that same controller hole.

>>7266104
Yep, you're probably right. Just checked another episode and the Famicom still has its plastic piece, so perhaps they have a few different Famicoms that they use on the show.

>>7266214
Yup, there's another version of an AV mod on that one, different type. It's neat to imagine someone working that show must've been enough of a nerd to say "Hey! We can get better image if we get a modded console!"

>>7257109
I also hope that this and Majuu Ou will be subbed, so that the Makuhari Messe challenge can be subbed.

>>7269537
BON BON?

>>7245962
Being a fan of Strider, on that episode I was impressed by some of his moves and sheer luck with discovering the solution to things quickly.
Sometimes though it makes me wonder if Capcom itself was a genius developer.

>>7270710
DASH, Bon Bon!

>>7268380
oh my god

Why doesn't he play on a crt?

>>7245962

Really boring episode for a boring kid's game. I watched it over the course of a week.

So much soul

>>7272949
Congrats on being a fag with no sense of enjoyment.

>>7273134

These pandemic episodes are lame as hell. And Pokemon has always been gay shit for kids.

>>7260728
Not that guy, but I'm learning japanese and I hate how many meanings certain sentences can have because of nips not using pronouns almost at all. Even if you know all the words and understand the grammar of the sentence you can still be confused when it comes to what it all actually means.

>>7273187
Yes, we already know how gay you are.

>>7246567
it says she has sexy legs not nice legs.

>>7273617
It looks like the goose translator went with a tamer meaning. A lot of loanwords can be open to interpretation, like テンション can mean eager anticipation, not just nervous anxiety.

>>7272915
He does - but only when he uses a light gun.

>>7274965
>like テンション can mean eager anticipation, not just nervous anxiety.

It can also mean that in English.

>>7276234
It's more likely to be the positive meaning when used by the Japanese than it is when used in English. The point is that loanwords from one language to another can end up being used more commonly in a way that's different from their typical native meaning.

>>7276234
I think the most common example of loadword drift is how Japanese still use an older usage of "bitch" that's closer in meaning to "slut", while in modern English it's almost always used to either refer to a woman with a bad attitude or to call someone weaker than you. It's extremely obvious in hentai because translators usually just leave the word as bitch, even when it's being used in a way it wouldn't normally be used in English.

God, you guys are fucking lame...

>>7263213
It's AV modded.

>>7266214
You can clearly see the three wire AV cable in this shot. It outputs composite video and stereo audio via a 3.5mm to 3 RCA cable. Common way to mod Famicom.

>>7266215
Kiba is a huge nerd and is probably the one who suggested it. Weird that they never bothered with RGB and a scaler, would be way fucking easier to deal with.

>>7271678
>>7270710
>>7269537
We all want to see Makuhari Messe subbed. Bon bon is one of the highlights of the Twitch stream.
Also Majuu Ou is a good episode between Arino wanting his fairy wife, heating jelly fairies off Kaga's hand, the entire ending

Am I the only one who felt like Aniki got hosed as an AD? It felt like whenever Osuka was the director he injected himself into the show to be on screen to do the stuff that the AD normally does.
Altered Beat was a great example

>>7277542
I know Oosuka was super popular with fans and staff. He was a very hard worker and a great sport. I don't know if that actually led to him overshadowing other staffers though.

>>7277653
It just felt like in episodes you knew Osuka directed, it felt like Aniki's role got diminished. Same with the 88 game trip where he was in charge of the pictures when it felt like that would normally be the AD.

Does anyone else want to see more of the Season 1 interview episodes fully translated (instead of only the challenges)?

For reference, here's the list of episodes that aren't fully translated yet:
>Sakura Wars (Roommania #203)
>Momotaro Dentetsu (Star Force)
>Derby Stallion (Astro Robo SASA)
>Namco (Galaga)
>Chunsoft (Door Door)
>Nintendo (Super Mario Bros 2 - The Lost Levels)

>>7246012
Imagine the handjobs.

>>7274965
That doesn't mean "sexy" doesn't mean "sexy". The meaning is very unambiguous. Sounds just like yet another case of a translator trying to tame things down because it offends his personal moral sensibilities.

>>7279572
Simple answer is what did he say in the audio? Arino knows his pervy english. Did he say sekushi?

>Arino is turning 49
Fuck, I don't like this at all. Feels like we just had that amazing 40th birthday Pilotwings bash.

>>7279635
Its okay, we have lots of time
When is Kan getting a nice gf?

Twitch stream is dead.
RIP

>>7279710
Is it gone for good? Banned? The steamer had been dealing with bandwidth issues for a while.

>>7279718
Looks like he's just offline and not banned.
Is there a place to download all the raws he's shown? I only see some of them in the bin.

>>7279710
>>7279737
The schedule website is unreachable as well which leads me to believe that streamer is having connectivity issues atm. Potentially a new modem or the old one dying? There was talk about it in the chat the up speed issues might be tied to old hardware. I'm sure it'll be back before long. At least I hope so...

>>7279572
You might not have read the replies about loanword drift.

>>7280024
I might not care, you seething twat.

>>7280027
It's just a thing that happens both ways. Like futon is a Japanese word that refers to something similar to indoor sleeping bags, but in the west it's usually used to refer to fold-out sofas. So if you were to subtitle a western furniture commercial into Japanese where they mention futons, you might have to pick a different term so there isn't any confusion over what's being talked about.

>>7280119
blah blah blah seethe seethe seethe
think I'm reading any of that garbage?

>>7266825
Not him, cry moar.

>>7280119
That's just our neighborhood troll getting antsy. Don't bother replying to him.

>>7263213
that reminds me, what's up with the second famicom under the desk here in the takeshi's challenge live replay?

>>7280987
Famicom on deck in case the one he's using shits out. For some games the AD also plays along matching Arino to swap in, I think they did this for Comix Zone to save time.

>>7279023
Absolutely, I'd love to see more of the general recurring features from way back then.
On a related note, is there even a raw, let alone a translation, for the season 13 interview he did with Yuji Horii?

>>7280987
>>7281003
They also used it for the Tokyo Budokan Super Mario Bros run where they actually did switch over to the back up one so Arino could have another shot.

>>7268546
I'm STILL looking for the song they used in the early seasons that sounds like a bootleg off the pirates of the caribbean theme.

In the first Rondo of Blood episode, when the narrator explains that you can play as Maria after saving her, what's the song with lyrics that production played as BGM? Anyone know?

>>7281681
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03y-KyezDS4
They used the song for the Majuu Ou episode too.

>>7281798
Thanks

>>7281798

Pastebin should include a list of all known music tracks used in the show.

>>7281798
Ayumi Hamasaki, the first idol i knew. And read about her in a magazine, a paper magazine.
I'm fucking old.

>>7282271
That is painfully out of date.

Anyone know what's going on with the stream?

>>7263213
>>7280987

/x/

>>7282271
I asked the editor if that could be done. He said it would be a massive undertaking to do and maintain. He really only has time to keep the news and episode list promptly up to date and to answer emails, and his contacts are less reachable than him, especially since covid hit. He's been able to find some music pieces I've asked him about before, but a list of all music is probably not going to happen any time soon.

The youtube playlist in the miscellaneous stuff is from the SA translator who stopped maintaining it years ago because of how difficult it was to keep on top of it.

>>7282271
The Japanese Wikipedia article has a list that covers everything up to around Season 23.

https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0%E3%82%BB%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BF%E3%83%BCCX#%E4%BD%BF%E7%94%A8%E3%81%95%E3%82%8C%E3%81%A6%E3%81%84%E3%82%8B%E6%A5%BD%E6%9B%B2%E3%83%BB%E5%8A%B9%E6%9E%9C%E9%9F%B3

>>7284951
I assumed he wanted a list in English with links to listen to every piece of music like that old youtube playlist had. That's what I had asked the editor about.

>>7268546
base as fuck

>>7280119
Or you could just be accurate and require the viewer to educate themselves.
