damn that sux but then again it was only a matter of time
Thanx Rumi for all you hard work
August 20th, 2008 at 3:00 am
NOOOOOO. And it sucks so I will need to watch it chinese subbed and episode 20 just came out(in chinese subs).
And Funimation doesn’t even own those titles anyways they are just representing a japanese company so whats the point for them to send a C&D.
August 20th, 2008 at 3:15 am
Oh and thanks for all your great subs in Nabari no Ou.:)
August 20th, 2008 at 3:53 am
I’m sorry to learn of this development…….nevertheless I DEEPLY appreciate your hard work, Rumi and time spent on subbing Nabari no Ou for us who are not native speakers of Japanese.
Thank you so much =)
August 20th, 2008 at 9:07 am
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-_-
I really apreciate your hard work untill now
Many thanks ^^
August 20th, 2008 at 9:35 am
Still thank you for great work and good luck on other projects.
August 20th, 2008 at 10:48 am
*sigh*
But thanks for all the work you did on Nabari! It was much appreciated.
August 20th, 2008 at 10:51 am
DMCA can only be given by the content creator or authorized representative. He, Lance Heiskell, is neither and is acting for someone who he does not legally represent. Yes. Japan’s creators can at any time go sue you even if it’s unlicensed but the odds of them tracking you down, throwing down a bilingual lawyer to wherever you live and trying to sue you, a poor otaku SOB, is not worth it, especially since someone else will just pickup your work.
Retarded companies just think they can throw threatening letters now with no merit and get people to quit, and shamefully its working.
August 20th, 2008 at 11:04 am
Guess the only option left for now is to wait for a certain fansub group to catch up since they only are at episode 13 atm :/ and hope that they won’t get a C&D
August 20th, 2008 at 11:33 am
Hmmm, the only tell about “video formats”. So if someone makes subtitles in .ass format - there will be no copyright violation, ain’t it?
August 20th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
You know, Bob Dole is absolutely spot on. Since Lance Heiskell is not legally involved then nothing will happen if Rumi (or anyone else) continue to sub the series. And also, Bob Dole is right about the Japanese creators too; the chances of them actually bothering to track you down are around 0.6% if you ask me.
And as for the .ass formats… I don’t think there’s anything wrong with those. Should Rumi want to continue writing these .ass files with a certain script for a certain awesome series inside, then I’m sure someone *me* would be more than happy to put the two together.
August 20th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
Rumi PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE think of releasing subtitles (without video)!
August 20th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
What Midas said! please respond to our comments
August 20th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
I definitely agree with the above posters and echo their thoughts in saying - release the .ass file! You’ve done a wonderful job so far and it would be a shame to not be able to finish the series.
August 20th, 2008 at 3:28 pm
For bob DOLE and Hikari-tan:
“I hereby certify, under penalty of perjury, that the following information is accurate to the best of my knowledge and belief.
I am an employee of FUNimation Entertainment. I am authorized to act on behalf FUNimation Entertainment (“FUNimation”) with respect to the matters discussed herein.
d-rights Inc. (“d-rights”) has authorized FUNimation to take enforcement actions on behalf of d‑rights for the purpose of stopping copyright infringement.”
FUNIMATION has the legal authority to act on behalf of the creators as they’ve signed an agreement on the matter. That being said, Nabari no Ou better get licensed or I won’t be too happy myself.
As for releasing .ass files I suspect that they’d still infringe on the creator’s rights, but that until licensed FUNIMATION might (depending on the agreement that they signed) not be able to personally do anything.
However, it’s probably not worth the effort anyway. Also, those waiting on a certain other group probably shouldn’t hold their breath as they probably received the C&D as well and just haven’t seen it yet.
August 20th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
To keep this part more easily read, thanks to Rumi and staff for their efforts and hard work on Nabari no Ou.
August 20th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
Well, as long as Natsu no Sora is till going I’m happy ^ ^
August 20th, 2008 at 3:36 pm
Trefender, we’ve already seen it
August 20th, 2008 at 3:46 pm
And I think I should say a big thank you to Rumi for all their hard work up to this point on the series; you guys really are the best subbers of the series!
August 20th, 2008 at 4:14 pm
“DMCA can only be given by the content creator or authorized representative. He, Lance Heiskell, is neither…” -bob Dole
My point was that Lance Heiskell, on behalf of FUNimation, actually does have the rights to tell people to stop and that depending on the agreement that FUNimation signed with d-rights, FUNimation might have the legal ability to take it to court even if they haven’t licensed it.
Not that it matters too much. So long as it gets licensed and released with decent speed and quality I’ll be happy to take my money and support the industry.
August 20th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
They could take it to court even though they haven’t licensed it? That seriously sucks. Why bother with this series and the other 4 mentioned? They don’t usually get this serious… they should have just waited until it finished at least.
August 20th, 2008 at 5:49 pm
honestly i see no point in ranting whats done is done and I’d hate Rumi to get it to trouble - that would mean no more subs ever of anything for them and that woud hurt more than a few (AWESOME!!!!) animes being droped but thats just my opinion
Again I say Thanlk you Rumi and I look ofrward to any NEW series you might pick up???
August 20th, 2008 at 6:12 pm
Ah, I suppose, it was only a matter of time that this wonderful series got the nod. Regardless, you did a beautiful job Rumi. Thank you kindly for all of the wonderful episodes, and I look forward to your other subbed releases ^^
August 20th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
Lance Heiskell being given authorization to send threating or mean letters on behalf of d-rights is different from Lance Heiskell being able to take you to court. He is not distributing those titles nor is he working for the content creator. He is not a lawyer and cannot represent them in court. He’s not making money off the series yet so he can’t sue you for damages.
He is useless. In Otakon he faggotted a list of 94 that pirate anime on the internet, and to the crowds shock and horrid boredom proceeded to read half of them. You can see the idiot here: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/convention/2008/fansubs-and-industry-panel I wouldn’t take his word for anything.
It costs japanese companies too much money to wage war on random fansubs, which are usually students with the earning potential of a walmart clerk.
August 20th, 2008 at 6:55 pm
He has the ability to act as you put it earlier an “authorized representative”. Whether or not he could take it to courts is unknown, but he probably wouldn’t for the reasons you mentioned above. As for who he is, he’s a guy doing his job.
Also, I agree tiggi there. Rumi should just keep doing what they do since if there’s one thing we can all agree on it’s that Rumi does good work.
August 20th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
Ah bummer but thanks for your effort!
August 20th, 2008 at 10:08 pm
Threats are only useful if they mean something. Lance is null. If there is no legal basis then all the authorization he has is to send gay letters, not to force the removal of media.
August 20th, 2008 at 11:45 pm
bob dole why are the letters suddenly “gay”? Because you can’t watch your favorite series for free anymore? The fact of the matter is Lance Heiskell isn’t just some corporate tool from funimation who decided he wanted to take on himself the responsibility of C&D fansubs of ongoing series, the Japanese license holders made an agreement with the company he works for to ensure that people stop fansubbing the series they work hard on to feed their families. That’s right, the creators of the show you love so much are the ones asking that people stop subbing and Lance is simply the messenger, ever heard the old saying “don’t shoot the messenger”? In other words your anger is misplaced, if you wanna be mad be mad at the ones who asked funimation to issue the C&D’s.
Second of all, no the Japanese people would waste far too much money to track down individual fansubers on the other side of the globe, which is the reason why they’ve focused on reprimanding the raw providers in their own country thus essentially killing the root of the problem.
Anyway I digress, thanks rumi for all your hard work, I really did enjoy all your releases of Nabari and will keep my eye on your group for release of other series I may show interest in the future. I’ll be sure to pick of the series where it left off when ever it may be licensed here.
August 21st, 2008 at 1:49 am
Letters are gay when they are written with faggotry from someone who you can clearly see has assburger syndrome from the otakon video. You thank Rumi for all (their/his/her)? hard work yet rumi has clearly been hurting earning potential for future licencees by making quality english translations available. Defending the Lance and Rumi in the same breath is hypocrisy. Rumi will continue to illegally sub different titles and again hurt earning potential for prospecting companies.
THE CEASE AND DESIST PART IS IMPLIED WITH PIRATING COPYRIGHT ANIME, WHAT’S WITH THE SPAZZING OUT WHEN AN OFFICIAL LETTER IS SENT, YOU’RE STILL JUST AS LIABLE AND AT RISK AS YOU WERE BEFORE.
August 21st, 2008 at 2:30 am
By the way, it’s stupid to assume d-rights contacted him and asked him to send threatening letters to english fansub groups. It’s clear from the otakon video he’s just a bitter retard that wants to maximize profits after licensing the stupid anime, which he hasn’t even done. He’s not the messenger, but the aggressor, preemptively taking action before he earns the rights for distribution. He was whining about killing fansubs in otakon. It’s also stupid to assume such a douche has a family, the only thing he has to feed is his anus with big vieny ones by devoting a career to foreign cartoons.
August 21st, 2008 at 12:45 pm
bob dole you are so full of crap. I’m not gonna pretend I don’t download illegal fansubs (and will continue to do so probably forever) so yes I will thank rumi for enabling me to, but I’m also not gonna pretend that fansubs can be detrimental and that the Japanese can use d-rights to ensure that they can still make a profit off of the anime they make. If Lance was as bitter as you say he was then why even attend the otakon panel about fansubs and the industry at all? Why not just skip it and then curse the fansubers out at the state of the industry panel instead?
I did see the ann video of the fansubxindustry panel and upon watching that and reading your statements I wonder if you and I even watched the same video? Say what you want about corporate execs “bullying” people who are doing illegal things from continuing to do so, but unless you missed the fansubbers response on that topic all of them were in the common concensus that if sent such a letter they would comply under the understanding that these companies are simply protecting their property.
Don’t feel like keeping food on Lance’s table? Fine whatever, doesn’t change the fact you’re still keeping food off of Yuhki Kamatani’s table.
August 21st, 2008 at 1:19 pm
I’m not going to address all your stupid rambling you didn’t say anything new or defend against anything I said. This isn’t about putting food on the table, it’s about earning some serious fucking money. Apparently you didn’t hear what he said in the panel, he was just bitching and moaning the whole time in the similar manner those faggots throw those 2 minute antipiracy ads before dvds. You’re an absolute idiot for continuing to pirate shit then like an idiot defending those trying to kill the fansubs with C&D letters they could never enforce, and are an implied part of the piracy.
August 21st, 2008 at 2:24 pm
oh goodness, wow. So suddenly I’m the only person in the existence who watches fansubs and still thinks that the anime industry is in the right to support and defend itself? There are plenty out there besides myself who pirate and buy dvds and have no problem with the industry utilizing its right to protect iself. I’m not an idiot because I don’t blindly believe I should take whatever I want without paying for it and get up in arms when the people I’m stealing from to decide to install roadblocks.
Anime is made for one purpose: to make money. No freaking duh. However, as it is now, the people who make it barely make enough to get buy, and no fansubs aren’t helping that matter. So yea, it is about putting food on the table, paying past due bills, or what have you. Money is a means for survival is it not, without it you’re not likely to be able to support yourself are you?
And no I’m not rambling. The fact that you disagree with me doesn’t make what I have to say rambling no less than the fact I disagree with you doesn’t therefore warrant your posts rambling. I did hear what EVERYONE at that panel had to say, from both sides, not just the fansubbers and not just the industry folks and no one on either end was “bitching” or “moaning.” Both sides were simply stating why they do what they do and both sides were in the agreement that fansubs were never going to go away the industry would just need to find a way to work around them to make their impact less detrimental than it is now.
You say you won’t address what I have to say cause you deem it as “stupid rambling” but in essence you have not stated anything new either and have not put forth any counter arguments to what I have said. So what if funimation put 2min antipiracy ads in their dvds? Skip them if you feel so much offense towards them or simply click the mute button until it’s over if you can’t skip straight to the menu.
August 21st, 2008 at 2:29 pm
Those arguments don’t even make sense bob Dole. I was going to just ignore you and let you think what you want, but your argument is: “Lance is gay.” Then, you continue to say that BOTH fansubbers and licensors are wrong which makes no sense. In addition, like kakoishii, I’m forced to wonder if you even watched the video.
Japan, licensors, and fansubbers all recognize the system. It’s a common policy amongst fansubbers to stop when asked for whatever reason as ultimately it’s always for the sake of the creators that fansubbers do stop.
As a note, I’m a fansubber myself and can assure you that most fansubbers will stop on a C&D even if it can’t be enforced. There’s a reason why Rumi dropped the project and if you can’t figure out why it’s your own fault and problem. You shouldn’t blame it on anyone else. You need to realize that this world does not exist for you, for Lance, or even for the creators of the anime you watch. What happens happens so live with it!
August 21st, 2008 at 3:14 pm
You have no reading comprehension trefender. That’s not what I was saying at all. There’s a difference between being homosexuality and an assburger writing faggotry, if you don’t get it your SOL. I said nothing about both fansubbers and licensers are wrong you impossibly retarded fucktard.
kakoishii, you don’t even merit me reading all the trash you wrote because it’s obvious you’re sub-monkey intelligence.
August 21st, 2008 at 3:22 pm
as bob dole continues to make an ass of himself this able body person will no longer concern herself with his dysfunction [insert facepalm].
August 21st, 2008 at 3:35 pm
“You have no reading comprehension trefender. That’s not what I was saying at all. There’s a difference between being homosexuality and an assburger writing faggotry, if you don’t get it your SOL. I said nothing about both fansubbers and licensers are wrong you impossibly retarded fucktard.
kakoishii, you don’t even merit me reading all the trash you wrote because it’s obvious you’re sub-monkey intelligence.”
Gone from attacking the topic to the people…
August 21st, 2008 at 3:55 pm
I can’t argue with absolute stupidity. It’s impossible. God forbid I might teach you something. Your stupidity insults insults me more than any insult I could possibly throw back.
August 21st, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Maybe bob Dole would be the next one to provide quality Nabari no Ou english subs? Can’t explain his activity here in other way…
August 21st, 2008 at 6:36 pm
bob Dole should go make orange juice.
August 21st, 2008 at 9:50 pm
bob dole, are you retarded? It’s Rumi’s decision to comply with FUNimation’s C&D. And, Lance never stated that FUNimation licensed all those titles in the video. And if he actually licensed Nabari no Ou, he has full rights to send a C&D from himself and not on behalf of “d-rights”, I see no reason why FUNimation would “blame” a Japanese company if they licensed it.
Idiot.
and again, it’s Rumi’s decision, if he wants to drop it - it’s up to him. You have no right to say he can’t drop it, you’re just another leecher to all fansubbers out their. Fansubbers sub for themselves, not you leecher. Idiot.
August 22nd, 2008 at 9:29 am
Thanks for all your efforts Rumi :]
August 22nd, 2008 at 9:44 am
Haha Nikita :] it should be done!
But I am just hoping for the .ass files still ;]
August 23rd, 2008 at 5:40 am
Though these series have ******NOT BEEN LICENSED******* to a local distributor in North America, it is important to note that the rights owned by Japanese producers are still applicable, and enforceable, worldwide.
Sigh… If it’s not been licensed then it’s still ok to sub it. but.. Rumi’s choice is Rumi’s choice. I just wish they continue it, It only has 7 more episodes left. x( *we need Anonymous or pseudonym*
August 23rd, 2008 at 5:45 am
*One behalf of d-rights, please drop Nabari no Ou and remove all torrents from http://tracker.anirena.com/ other torrent tracker sites and your irc channel.*
He/She/It asked to remove all torrents from tracker but he didn’t say about not releasing subs right? ^^ please continue the subs. Thanks in advance~~
August 23rd, 2008 at 9:58 am
Subtitles have nothing common with their rights! Everyone can release subtitles freely.
August 23rd, 2008 at 11:25 am
Just releasing the subtitles with no video would be so awesome… Ainex, who sub Monochrome Factor, said that if they recieved a C&D then they would still release the subtitles as .ass files :]
August 24th, 2008 at 1:37 am
In response to those wanting only subs:
The C&D encompasses everything. Video, subtitles, and actually even Anime Music Videos. Releasing anything related to the series is infringing on the creator’s rights. Funimation has the right to send out these C&D by the creator which also means, if they catch me doing anything related, they can track me down and sue my silly ass; or even worst, the Canadian Government would be involved. Funimation has an operation in Canada; therefore it would be unwise of me to do so.
To those who think I’m being a lazy ass or hate me for dropping, I’m sorry I’m hurting your feelings, but you’ll have to live with the fact I’ve dropped it. I will not, and will never try anything that would provoke any studio or R1 production company.
As someone said above, I do this out of pure pleasure to helping those who I can, and however far I can help as time permits.
If you still don’t sympathize with me, then please, kindly, GTFO.
August 24th, 2008 at 3:15 am
Well, maybe Rumi is not aware of the fact that receiving a C&D does not mean that Funimation (or anyone else) has started monitoring you in every possible way.
There are some simple ways to go on subbing anonymously, and I would gladly explain them. Doing that here is not really safe, so I’ll just start giving a hint: the word “Syndicate” should ring a few bells.
August 24th, 2008 at 5:31 am
Rumi, no one thinks you’re lazy; I’m pretty sure we all understand :] thanks for everything anyway…
And here’s to some anon subbing it in the future!
August 24th, 2008 at 10:24 am
@khelbenaru
I very much understand they do not monitor my actions, they do however monitor the releases through torrent sites and direct download sites, most probably with search bots. Should they find that “Rumi Productions” is still releasing I will without a doubt be held responsible. A simple call to the Canadian Government would put “Rumi” in a lot of trouble. Therefore, “Rumi” has dropped.
@Hikari-tan
As for anon subbing “Rumi” has dropped. Though, I look forward to serving you guys more anime coming in the fall.
I know not everyone thinks I’m lazy but I read some comments and I became upset
August 24th, 2008 at 1:53 pm
Rumi, you still can change your nick
Anyhow, MANY THANKS for your hard work. We enjoyed it a lot.
August 24th, 2008 at 2:53 pm
Ahh Rumi~ your subs were always the best anyways :[ just such a shame that they had to get this series… and Midas, nickname changing is an option of course but I don’t think it’ll happen ;[
August 24th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
Rumi, of course the method I have in mind is not as simple as changing your nick. I cannot discuss it here for obvious reasons, anyway I guess I can use the e-mail address above to explain it in detail. I will do that asap.
August 25th, 2008 at 1:30 am
@khelbenaru
That isn’t my email address, unfortunately. Not sure where Funimation got the idea that would be it.
August 25th, 2008 at 12:36 pm
First of all: big THANK YOU and a deeeeep bow for you for you hard work. I really, really love your subs ^^
But.. one bad news after another: first that you were forced to drop the project *sob* and now.. I just checked youtube for the new, 21st raw episode, and yeah, there is first part of it REMOVED due to a copyright claim by the third party *faints* Which means - no NnO this week.
The funny thing is, all episodes with spanish subtitles are still available to watch.
I`m depressed now. NnO is still being aired, is not even licensed and I don`t even know when -or if ever - will be. I live in UK now, I could buy it, but when I`ll come back to my country, I`ll have NO chance to get it. I know I sound stupid and whiny, but.. me and my friends always dl subbed anime *blushes* and if we like it - we buy manga or anime as soon as it`s being released in English (and we have someone in UK, France or Germany who has access to the manga stores, like me at the moment^^).
Thank you Rumi once again!
August 25th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
I have episode 21 of NNO and I own the manga volume 1-8. (well that’s cause it’s not in english….but in chinese)
Thanks Rumi for all you’ve done.
August 26th, 2008 at 5:05 am
Get episode 21 from torrents
Haha custard I own those volumes too but in Japanese X3
August 27th, 2008 at 6:50 pm
Does someone knows that True Tears was licensed too and m33w contiuned to sub it with a different name.why canT yopu just do the same???
August 28th, 2008 at 12:05 am
@Rumi we know what you feel about this issue.. We all know that fansubbing is dangerous because you can be sued by companies who LICENSED the anime.. It’s just that… the C&D letter that you received is BULLSHIT, they haven’t licensed it so they have no rights to stop ANYONE who subs or dubs it UNTIL they license it and we “leechers” feel left behind cuz we “leechers” are expecting more episodes from this awesome anime. Well it’s too late. *prays that anon and sudo jumps in this anime* or *whistles* !@$&$&$^$%#$@#!@! :O censored!
August 28th, 2008 at 2:35 am
Geez everyone don’t pressure Rumi. He will do what he wants to do and leechers like us, will just have to live with it.
August 28th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
I did get NnO from torrents Hikari-tan ^^
*sighs*
But I have no idea whats going on! Could someone tell me what happened in 20th and 21st episode? Just some basics, please!
I`m sure, licensed NnO will NEVER be as good as with your subtitles, Rumi ^^ (which is a common thing, did you notic that? some fansub groups translations are better than those licensed!)
Kisses XXXX
August 29th, 2008 at 5:07 pm
Good good Mikuni ;D
There is a sub for NnO 20… but I can’t say more than that for obvious reasons. Good luck finding it! <3
August 30th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Etoooooo……
*bribes Hikari-tan with chockolate chunk cookies and when that fails, tries old good paddle*
You know, I`m simple and stupid. I`ll try google. I hope it`ll work. If not, I`ll go and sit in the corner and sulk ^-^ And wait until someone will pity me give me the sub on a plate *blinks innocently*
August 31st, 2008 at 11:11 am
Aww Mikuni :[ I hope you find it soon!
August 31st, 2008 at 5:04 pm
I don`t even try. I`m gonna invite Rumi to the club, get err…um…. her? him? drunk and have my own personal subtitles, yay!
Ruuuuumi!!!! Where are youuuu? I hope somewhere in Europe… O.o
August 31st, 2008 at 5:05 pm
Shit. You`re Canadian.
September 1st, 2008 at 9:22 am
XD! No chance of that happening then ;D
September 1st, 2008 at 10:01 am
Rumi, thanks for all of your hard work. Any thoughts on releasing just the subs? Those *cannot* be licensed, and are fully covered under DMCA as legit in the US.
I finally DL’d the 20 and 21 RAWs…can anyone translate? lol
September 1st, 2008 at 10:04 am
Ouch, didn’t realize that C&D covered the subs as well…holy &*^%. Either way, great work on everything you’ve done so far. Plz don’t put yourself @ risk, stay legit
I’d rather have great releases from you than risking having you behind bars just to get us NoO subbed!
November 6th, 2008 at 10:52 pm
hey Rumi, sry to hear about the C&D. I thought your work on the series was awesome. Oh yah, i saw the panel at Otakon and Lance Heiskell is a total tool. You know, the kinda kid who was hated in school by the geeks and so the industry is his escape for revenge on all those who never invited him to lan parties, but thats what i see
