Dattebayo Quits Naruto Fansubs

I used to care about naruto. I stuck through about half the fillers then gave up. It sucks to see Dattebayo quit and drop it.

Btw... Crunchyroll sucks

I don't give a pair of foetid dingo's kidneys about naruto. I just hope dattebayo release more compilations of the Rube-Goldberg-esque eyecatches from Pythagoras Switch.

I stopped caring for Naruto after the fillers and the hordes and hordes of Narutards who keeps raeping the franchise.

This is pretty T_T sad yo. I'm pretty sure DB is really quiting this time for reals.

Fillers kill anime...not unless it's a good filler episode or just a breather

Well unless another sub group takes over I guess I'll stop watching Naruto as an Anime and just stick with the manga.

Now really, who cares about that? I stopped watching Naruto as soon as I see them fanboys or Narutards start jumping around going this-jitsu and that-jitsu. And also the hordes of idiots who flamed at Dattebayo when ever the slowed down a bit on the releases, these people don't understand that they're getting free anime with subs after all.
But seriously, I would prefer fansubs over crunchyroll or whatever those online anime streaming sites, the reason is because I rather pay for the DVDs and donate to the fansubs than let crunchyroll reap huge profits from their not-up-to-par video and subs quality.

let DB rot they are a bunch of whiner they ban you from irc if you tell them hi (or so i heard) they dont want to do it cool, someone will take their place... with the time.

and steaming sucks the quality sucks and oyu have to pray to get a good sub and the quality sucks also you have to wait till someone or the company puts it to stream (as toast crust) and the quality sucks.

got the point?

if you are going to waste 125mb for a crappy stream (talking about highq stream dunno how big is crunchy roll) you better get a fansub for 70 or more mbs and delete the file. at the end its the same result duh... but moar quality.

gg dropped toradora and qq took the place, that happens everyday good anime (even some crappy anime like naruto) can get its replacement sooner or later.

and streaming quality sucks (i have been saying that a lot).

Can anyone tell I'm an Otaku Anime fan yet? I'm not that hardcore so to speak of though... I won't buy ten issues of a mag just for mouse pads! -.- I think people are taking the anime, no scratch that, the internet world too lightly. People in this day an age have use the net for plenty of things that most would think impossible. It seems faith in fan-sub groups has disappeared.... Naruto has over 1 million fans outside of Japan. Lets do the math, how many people who love anime own a comp? Surely not all of them! With anime channels being produced on satellite tv, cable tv, and even tv on the net, it has made a significant jump from where it was ten years ago. Ten years ago, I would not have even been able to load this page in under 5 minutes. Getting back to the topic, who would be to thank for the sudden spike in fans over the years? Obviously the anime creators, the internet, the internet community, and oh ya; THE FAN-SUB GROUPS! Anime will always be alive as long as it is popular. You really think this kind of move from DB will shake the foundation of anime viewing as a whole? Lets see, there are over 40k anime's (from the top of my head) and more than 125 viewers for each alone. Now I'm not saying 125 people watch each anime, there just numbers... you get my point. People need to see this as a step forward instead of a threat. You have to take the good with the bad... I haven't been able to finish D-Gray.Man and now its being forced off fan-sub sites! Does that mean its not available at all? Why don't you tell me the answer!

just to point out there aren't many others subbing this due to the fact that DB do a fast job and if you want the newest naruto you go to them and don't look around as soon as DB stop others will try to take there 100,000s or downloaders for themselves
ps
that one uk anme station is gone no anime ever lasts here get cannd sooner or just after soon

Aren't Crunchyroll streams available internationally anyways? As far as I'm aware, they do not block national IP's for them.

The only thing that might make these streams difficult to view for international audiences is the timeslots they decide to air the streams in (if any).

This is reminiscent to the Strike Witches streams. You can be anywhere to watch them in the world, it's just that the time it was shown during (2pm Pacific time to the subsequent midnight on Thursdays) was US centric. But if a person on the other side of the world wanted to make the effort to be awake in that time?

They can watch it.

I highly doubt this will be a different situation.

I say good riddance to Dattebayo! While they do provide a nice quality fansub...

The rest of the time they act like egotistic jerkoffs! As if they are the only ones in the world that could ever sub the show.

I'll just find some other way to watch it... I'm sure others will jump at the chance.

their 100th "Press Release" sound like a YHBT to me

Ι wonder how many times I have heared Dattebayo announced that they will stop fansubbing Naruto. Even if they mean it that time...I DON'T GIVE A SH*T! There are plenty of fansub groups that can do the job.

hmph! I blame those who uploads DB subs of naruto, as i have read the article on the DB site (before it closed) that the main root of all this trouble are those who uploads their subs in stream sites.... well I can't blame them, I mean they've asked nicely (about in every 0.1 secs of the very beggining of their subs) to stop uploading their subs, but now... all of us who complied by their rules are now suffering a faith that we didn't deserve, but it can't be helped, the problem became an epidemic for DB, so they have to resort to permanently stop their operation..... it's such a waste though, for me, they had the best naruto subs.

Dattebayo did a terrific job subbing all these years.

It's a shame though that crunchyroll and joost isn't an option for me because I'm living in Europe.

I found Animebento to at least sub again in HD (the other quality out there is horrible), but still I miss the dattebayo quality :-(

And nothing is going to change. They're just going to upload their private releases to public torrent trackers like Inferno Demonoid or The Pirate Bay.

Honestly, trying to change things in the fansub scene is futile. People will fansub no matter what you do, and if a series is licensed, they'll just clandestinely slip it in a public anonymous tracker.

No mkv or avi files on my beloved HD....
dam it's time set up raw

I don't mind to watch ads or something or pay small fee..

but I just want them on my HD with good quality on my 22 inch screen.

So getting the raw and ripping the subs if they don't give me choice.. because there will be day and you don't have internet >.>

Reading their article, and if this is not a troll/joke and they're actually serious, then this is a good move towards the greater anime community.
Though, I HATE crunchyroll, streaming anime is never good.

Although, I heard this here first, rather than going onto the DB site(I don't even watch their releases). I hope you post up some more fansub news too :)

Well, you can always use snag-it to capture the shitty stream and then go through it with v-dub, taking down the text and the time indexes of the frames and typing/pasting them into a text file and make an .srt out of it. Could also be good for people who want to translate it from english or get creative with the wording. Could use it with just about any raw though the timing may be off, depends on the raw itself.

It's just amazing how ignorant anime "fans" can be,

Ahh well. All good things some to an end =[

Personally, I just skipped the fillers after a couple of arcs -- then everything got better =]

Anyhow, this is fine for me. My sister speaks fluent Japanese =]

Yeah, right, pre-empting pressures. Why don't they just come out and say that they've lost motivation and/or are afraid of being sued? Besides, it's not like another group won't take up where they've left off. The paid/free streaming is a great idea but only if you live in the US. Sure, worldwide licenses are problematic and all but come on.

I couldn't care less about Naruto, but I hope this "US only" trend will stop in the near future. I like the idea of free, ad-supported streaming, but only if everyone can watch it, not only Americans.

I expect a YHBT post on their site soon enough. Doesn't matter to me anyway, since I haven't been following Naruto for some time now and probably won't start to do so again.

I am, however, a bit worried about fansubbing in general as of late. Good thing my Japanese is improving steadily.

I hope they pick up something good now for a change.

Should i BELIEVE IT OR NOT.
DB said many times that they will cancel sub naruto,but they didn't.

well, gotta love their attitude.

Last episode was cool however.
I have not been watching it for a while before the Hidan and Kakuzu arc.

Not the first time they said that they want to stop.

Anyway. I couldn't give three shits and more.

Some other group will pick it up i bet.

To be totally honest?
I would have cared a lot more if I was still watching Naruto... Just can't bring myself to start it again.

this sucks. how will i watch it subbed?

Um.. this is like the 5th or 6th time they've said they were going to quit.

This is hardly news, expect a 2 week hiatus and they'll be back again. Not that I really care for Naruto.

Well, I dunno know if Dattebayo has a damaged brain or something. They want it, as seems, they've needed sympathy each time they do this crazy statement. They think of themselves mighty since they are a pioneering Naruto Fansubber. They're such a loser.
