It's a bit later than usual, but here you go, Karin episode 11.

Oh, and we dislike "when are you releasing" posts as much as the fansubbers that maintain irc channels. In fact, I'll wager that this is the single most annoying thing to fansubbers in all. So don't. Thanks.

Hey guys, don't make me worry.
I can't see anyone with 100% !

Please don't pester these people with a large number of "no seed" or "we can't download posts". I know there aren't any seeds as of yet, but the small number of posts already given should be enough for them to do something about it. I don't want to see another episode 10 disaster with 100+ posts all saying "no seeds". It's just plain rude.

A few comments on Ep 11 (no major spoilers):

The High video quality is back! Yay! Don't know if you changed the encoding back or got better raws again or what, but the episode was back to your wonderful quality for 1-7 (much better video quality than 8-10 were). Keep it the same way for the later ones! :)

Well, it seems every anime has to have a "pool" (or beach) episode. This one was cute, though Winner isn't one of my favorite characters, so...
(Minor quibble: if Winner's supposed to be Romanian, why does he keep spouting English? Guess that falls into the "all gaijin speak English" thought process..)

I see next week's episode is right out of the manga (Ren targeting Kenta's mom) but that brings up a question I had: Winner-kun doesn't appear in the manga, right? (I haven't had a chance to read all the manga yet). But in one of the manga books it mentions some Karin NOVELS, and shows a picture of a character (that looks a lot like Winner-kun) mentioning he appears in the novels. I was wondering:
* What's the deal with the novels?
* Which came first? Novels or manga? Was it the same creator as the manga?
* If anyone's read the novels, what are they like, what do they focus on?

One more episode next week, and it will be the half-way point.

The novels are by a different author than the manga, and actually I hear the publisher commissioned them without asking the mangaka first. (The problem with doing 'work for hire'.) Didn't Ren go after Kenta's mom when she was working at the Love Hotel? Maybe she gets a job next episode!

And of course I can't forgot to say thanks for more wonderful, well-done work by the We Suck team.

Is it really true We Suck will be engaging Disney with a bidding war over Pixar?

Heh heh, sorry!

Thanks for another great sub. You are the
best and the fastest. Even "late" by your
standards is still early by others. Arigato.

<Torgen> Next I'll claim that my translations are perfect, and any apparent errors are really elaborate typos.
<MSH> typos introduced by the keyboard of course, not by you!
<Torgen> naturally.
<_bla_> Torgen: why is group called "we suck" then not "my keyboard sucks" ?
<Torgen> typo.
<Torgen> Tyreal: not enough room in your nick for |sucks?
<Tyreal|Seeking|Enlightenment> crap!
<Tyreal|Seeking|Enlightenment> I suck!
* Tyreal|Seeking|Enlightenment is now known as Tyreal|Enlightenment|Sucks
<Tyreal|Enlightenment|Sucks> phew
<Tyreal|Sucks> Torgen: how DID you do those DVD type subs by the way :P
<Tyreal|Sucks> just got fonts that looked like that, or used an actual dvd subtitling proggie
<Torgen> It's Arial.
<Torgen> I used TextSub.
<Tyreal|Sucks> ahh
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> Torgen: THERE YOU ARE
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> Torgen: do you really think I suck ;_;
<Torgen> no.
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> oh good
<Torgen> I was a little worried that it'd be interpreted that way, though.
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> Torgen: nah, I just laughed for about 2 hours
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> When I started getting pm's about it
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> "You're from we-suck"
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> apparently we-suck is popular with the french
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> Don't ask me why XD
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> They say they want to "worship you"
<Torgen> I'll put you in parenths next time so it's clear you just post the raws.
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> no, put Tyreal|Sucks in there
<Tyreal|Work|Sucks> I'm amused by this now, I kind of like it XD
<Shouta> <WeSuck> You = my bitch
<Torgen> Yeah, it's like taking the ghost suit of the ghost lego man and putting it on the astronaut lego man.
<Torgen> The ghost lego man is now just a normal lego man with a featureless face.
<Torgen> while the astronaut gets to look out through the ghost suit's eyeholes.
<Spyre> Torgen that has to be the best analogy ever.
<Spyre> Thats EXACTLY what its like!
* Spyre is in awe
<kara|hw> i told crustol...
<kara|hw> '私解析していてちょっぴり濡れちゃった。'

<AWAY-Bomb|AutoShow> Whee!
<AWAY-Bomb|AutoShow> Suck!
<Torgen> no, because Hawaii would have been right
<Torgen> but it was wrong.
<Torgen> so it was left.
<Torgen> :(foot)
<Torgen> Think you could co-produce some Gundam show with cat girls in it?
<Jekichu-clone> gundam....cat girls...
<Jekichu-clone> ...
<Jekichu-clone> ....
<Jekichu-clone> no
<Torgen> Like have cat-girls (and boys, and women, and men) instead of Newtypes or Coordinators...
<Torgen> or whatever other gundam series had.
<Jekichu-clone> laf, thats straight up pornographic
<Torgen> think of the ratings!
<Jekichu-clone> rawwwrrrr
<PyRC> basket, if everything is recursive, maybe there are no fansubs.
<Torgen> And Ensei doesn't sound like I expected him to when I first saw him...
<Torgen> He looks all gruff...
<Torgen> and he sounds so comical.
<arcImpulse> and you expected...
<Torgen> him to sound all gruff, like those assassins...
<Torgen> but he sounds uncultured;
<Torgen> not rogueish.
<Torgen> it's like, if he said "wanna come over and watch the game?" I'd take a moment to realize that was an anachronism.
<arcImpulse> if you think he sounds weird... just wait till we get to Eccentric Kou
<arcImpulse> and you'd be like...holy anachronism~~
<Torgen> what, does Kou sound like a robot or something?
<arcImpulse> damn, I couldn't fool you, ne?
