Starting with (technically, prior to) the next batch of releases, we'll be offering exclusive early releases for Hiatari Ryoukou and Maicchingu Machiko Sensei* (some conditions apply, read below).
*Yes, Maicchingu Machiko Sensei is still active. We are almost 25% complete with the translation of the whole series, however due to no active timers on the project, it is stalled. Help us if you are a timer!
Now, as you know, most subtitling groups, including us run/host servers for distribution, project management and/or the purchase of DVDs for the projects. However, doing so isn't free nor cheap, so we have bills to pay every so often (bi-monthly). As I personally don't have the budget to pay those bills all the time, I tend to rely on fan donations. Therefore, we urgently need your help.
To provide an incentive, any person that donates $10 USD or more per batch**, shall be given exclusive early releases of Hiatari Ryoukou or Maicchingu Machiko Sensei*** (one or the other depending on which anime you are a fan of). If you are a fan of both anime, the early release quota is $15 USD or more. These exclusive early releases shall be 2-3 weeks before our official release, which is obviously provided freely to you if you don't mind the wait. If batches for both anime are ready at the same time, then the exclusive releases will be a month earlier. Donating for this cause is entirely optional, however if you want to watch the latest subtitled episodes first or approximately a month before everybody else, you now also have the option.
Distribution of these exclusive early releases shall be through BitTorrent at the e-mail addresses mentioned in your PayPal account. Keep in mind, if more than one person signs up to this, that same torrent will be shared to those people as well, so I will expect for you to seed too. To sign-up, just donate for the next batch and your e-mail address will automatically be entered to our early exclusive list. Once we have the releases ready, you will receive an e-mail with the torrent - it will be seeded until the end period which shall be stated in the e-mail as well.
**One (1) batch of Hiatari Ryoukou contains six (6) episodes.
***As of the 8th of August, Maicchingu Machiko Sensei will be released in batches of 5-episodes so that releases are faster and efficient, among other reasons.
