Hello again from your friends at </redacted/>! Decided to do a quick mux of today's dumps of CR AVC video+Amazon E-AC3 audio for those that can not view our HEVC release for whatever reason. This version uses the same script/translation as the HEVC version. No changes. Although in the near future we may make some revisions and do a v2 release. But no promises. Going forward we still plan to release episodes before they stream on western outlets. But I'd also like to use the higher quality sources when they come out. So I'm not sure what kind of release schedule we'll be on week-to-week. You should continue to expect ABEMA being used as our source for future releases though. At least the ones that come out first. Provided the anons involved have the free time to continue getting them out as quickly as we did episode 2 and 3. We also eventually plan to go back and revise our Episode 2 release and do Episode 1. For now I highly suggest DeerGod's version of both of those. ## Note: This is 8-bit AVC. I did not do my own encode for this. Since 8-bit AVC works in browsers and set-top devices. I may make another HEVC encode for this episode in the next few days using the higher quality raw. But for now I'm not sure if it'll come out tomorrow or later in the week. The video itself looked fine and I don't want to put a lot of effort into filtering it when the BDs are just around the corner. At first I was going to include the English Dub audio in this release. But a good friend reminded me that would be sacrilegious and from the few minutes of the dub that I watched it was _really_ awful. However, in the future if people really want dual-audio you might be able to change my mind on this issue. Leave a comment and let us know! We aim to please! ## Original release nfo follows Our translator decided he liked the show enough to continue working on it so here we are. We took more time and care with things this time and some new anons showed up to help out. Thanks to everyone who helped out and put in some late hours to get this out as soon as possible. This week the script is 100% original effort. We decided not to base it on anyone else's since we had to re-time everything last week anyway. This week's release also has better typesetting and proper signs. So that should make everyone happy. In addition we did our own encode for the HEVC version since that's our primary codec these days. As always you can take our script or anything else included in this release and use it/modify it/include it in your own release. We'll never ask you for money. But if you feel like giving some away in lieu of donations to us (or any other group) we ask that you please send Nekotofu gambling money. You can send him gambling money here: https://grinp.fanbox.cc/ ## Translation notes: Within the .mkv file are some TL notes. We've also included Japanese Closed Captions for those that are learning Japanese. Thanks to SweetSub for dumping them and the anon that edited them to fix a few errors. ## GREETINGS!: [DeerGod], Our good friend [LWL], [CA], [A-Flux], [Orphan], [Doremi] and that anon that keeps us in steady supply of Onimai raws. Good luck to everyone rolling on the next Blue Archive event! ## Sources used: - Video: varyg1001 CR WEBRip (H264 High@L4, 1920x1080 @ 7934 kbps, 23.976 (24000/1001) FPS) - Audio: varyg1001 Amazon WEBRip (Japanese, E-AC3 @ 224 kbps (stereo)) - Main Subtitles: Original English translation by anon(s) (aka DeerStalker) - Extra Subtitles: English (DeerStalker) SRT | CR Translation in English, ASS │ German, ASS │ Spanish (Latin American), ASS │ French, ASS │ Portuguese (Brazilian), ASS | Chinese, ASS - Japanese closed captions: SweetSub with minor edits by anon - Chapters: YES! We can into XML. ## How to play: All our releases are designed for playback on set-top devices (e.g. AppleTV, Firesticks, Xbox One) with native .ass rendering support provided you use a good software player. For most devices we suggest KODI with either a third party Plex or Jellyfin plug-in. For AppleTV we HIGHLY suggest Infuse. Which will play back our releases for free since we use AAC/Opus audio. Note that since this is a one-off release we did not have time to make SRT subtitle track for Roku support as usual. We will probably do this for the batch release if we do one. All our release playback on PC as well of course. We HIGHLY suggest using mpv or recent fork of MPC-HC with proper libass renderer. Note that if your device can not render .ass subtitles we've included an SRT version of the script. It's the same translation without signs due to the limitations of the SubRip subtitle format. These will work for devices that can't natively render .ass like Roku. ## Note: While we can not respond to comments we do read them and make fixes if reported. You can always download our releases from our usual XDCC bot on Rizon and our MEGA archives. ## Personal note: While the typesetter and editor was working on this today I decided to spend a few hours in my yard working on a small engine. While I was busy working a young deer wandered up and started eating corn that I toss out for the animals. Hence the cover art for this file. Take care! - Your friends at [Redacted] ## See .nfo for further information
