Hakuouki 03 – Twilight Blossom

“The sound of the Gion Shouja bells echoes the impermanence of all things;
The color of the Sala flowers reveals the truth that the prosperous must decline.
The proud do not endure, they are like a dream on a spring night.
The mighty fall at last, they are as dust before the wind.”

v2 torrent

patch to v2

DDL

 v2 CRC= 692FA20E

Note: Official lyrics for the OP will be used in episode 4. Did not want to delay any further to change the lyrics.
As usual, the quality of the raw sources is not that great since its not broadcast in HD.  Will re-release later if HD or BD becomes available.
Also, distorted warp sharp filters does not equal quality! :P

[EDIT]  In v2 we added proper styling and chapters for those who care. Use the patch to transform the v1 into v2. :)

    Well.. it could be just me but each time I am hitting the torrentlink I get the “404 – Not Found”-page. :>
    Same on the side of Wasurenai.

    Thank you very much. Italy is watching your subs! PS: I noticed some little bug with ending kara fx position

  11. by Asairo, on April 21 2010 @ 12:30 pm

     

    No, it’s the nature of the ed kara effect. There is a mathrandom in the starting position, that’s why it’s a little off. I will change it in the next episode when the official lyrics are released.

    Thank you for releasing Hakuouki. I just saw the episode today. A quick question though, did you guys forgot to mux the font? Because I like the font used in the previous episodes.

  13. by Shinkun, on April 22 2010 @ 10:33 am

     

    Stay tuned for a patch :P

    I liked the styling better when the fonts weren’t attached and it was defaulting to something else. The font you guys are using is way, way too thin. You should really switch to the regular or semibold version instead of light.

    Thank you for subbing this. I really enjoy your subs.
    One question if you do not mind, i would like to ask what is the name of the font that it is used in the ending?…
    I really liked it and i want to use it associating the show and this font on a wallpaper. I would really appreciate your reply. Thank you.

    Thx a lot!

    @ Desbreko
    We’ll think about it. It’s a bit on the thin side, yes.

    @ zeronineonefour
    The font you’re looking for is called: WorstveldSlingExtra2Oblique.ttf

    @ Everyone
    Thanks for your feedback. :)

  18. by Shinkun, on April 22 2010 @ 9:11 pm

     

    Keeping the current font for now. The show is kind of dialogue-heavy. It’s the same one I used in Mouryou no Hako for that very reason. I really really despise splitting lines and sentences onto two different lines. If we get enough requests will switch to the bolder version of the same font.

    Thank you for the v2 patch!! Keep up the good work, guys!

    thanks. i just love your subs. i have a question though.

    at the beginning of episode 3, kondo isami said “By imperial command, we are here to inspect this inn.”

    but at the end of episode 2, he said “Under imperial proclamation, you are under arrest.”

    i’m wondering why there is a difference in translation since i think he said the same thing.

  22. by Shinkun, on April 24 2010 @ 7:09 am

     

    TBH, it was difficult to tell what he was yelling. My final decision is that he’s actually saying:

    詮議のため宿内を改める!!!

    We are here to inspect this inn! The “under imperial proclomation” would be if he were saying Senge no tame, but I believe he was actually saying “sengi no tame”. To inspect.

    There are various translations of his initial announcement at the Ikedaya… “We have official business here”, “We’re here to inspect this place” , “You’re under arrest.”

    Anyway, that’s my final call. Sorry for the confusion.

  23. by silver, on April 24 2010 @ 7:50 pm

     

    @Shinkun: thanks for the reply! i watched episode 3 immediately after i watched episode 2. so, it just threw me off since it wasn’t consistent. no worries. :)
