Hello and Welcome to my grand project - May Their Blood Boil

This Fic originally started out as a small idea, meant to be a small birthday present for @ic3-que3n. And then the idea grew, because I love them and wanted to do something BIG. And then I reached out to multiple artists and friends (a complete list of those involved can be found below.) So, now this is a beast (haha) of a project. At the time of this initial posting, I have 70,000 words written for this fic -- my lovely editors and beta readers are helping to make sure each of those words is ready for uploading!!

For now, updates will come on a weekly basis.

I hope you all enjoy!!

Summary

Born in the Underground, Levi has been raised on the fringes of civilization. Never once getting to feel the sunshine on his face. But when one of his closest friend grows sick, the only way to procure the life-saving medicine is to take a dangerous job. One that will lead them above ground. Levi never would have guessed the route this treacherous job would lead them. Raised on the surface, Erwin has lived a life of lies and deception. Knowing more than he should and still nothing at all. He wants, more than anything, to uncover the mysteries that the nobility keep to themselves. Willing to go down a dark road and do whatever it takes to find the answers he seeks. When Levi and Erwin's paths cross, they find themselves inexplicably intertwined. Working together to unravel the lies that Eldia is crumbling beneath. But uncovering the truth will be tricky. The journey dangerous. All the magic in the realm serving as nothing more than a cage. And too often spilling blood is the only way to be set free.

fall 2024 anime 0 very very briefly

this anime season was looking like pretty slim pickings at first, but suddenly it got interesting... admittedly mostly with sequels to stuff I was enjoying before. anyway i've barely started watching it all so this is less reviews and more just like a statement of intent but...

elusive samurai - just watched s1e1. way more of a gorefest than I knew to expect, but that's those wacky samurai for ya! a lot of fun playful meta stuff in the way it's presented, definitely curious where they're going with this. the colour design is absolutely fantastic, in a way that's far too rare these days. well-chosen flat colours > pile of digital filters any day of the week.

oshi no ko s2 - haven't started this yet but it's oshi no ko, and this stage-acting focused arc of the manga should be pretty fascinating in animation. MTBB dropped it but someone's doing some automated cleanup on the hidive subs, which ought to help a lot.

nier automata ver 1.1a - last season i liveblogged this up to episode 8 when the production fell apart and they had a huge hiatus. but they are back now! so I guess it's time to catch up on the last four eps of the prev season that I missed, and see where they take the new one. despite the severe production problems and many aesthetic choices that never really convinced me, this show has managed to hit the NieR vibe more than I first expected. I look forward to seeing how they're gonna fuck with us this time around.

one upside of the hiatus is that there's now a complete fansub of the first season by a one-project group calling themselves [GLORY]. looks real nice, glad to see it get some proper love.

i'll have more to say once I've caught up a bit...

Editing the Monogatari recommendation post to link to the MTBB releases now that those are all done?

done. i'm leaving the commie/coalgirl subs becausei like them, but i replaced the Nise and Koyomi subs because those were definitely in need of a second take

[joyce-stick]

I personally would not say that fansubs are fringe whatsoever, in our experience. They still persist, particularly in cases where the official subs are found deficient in some way (like Revue Starlight, for instance) or as fan edits to the official subtitles, where people fix perceived translation errors without doing the subs from scratch, add the opening/ending/insert theme song lyrics, or stylize the extant subtitles to be in a different font/color, translate onscreen Japanese text, and/or look more attractive to people who dislike the standard "black and white Arial font" approach. And there's still a healthy amount of other groups besides Commie still doing from-scratch subs- Chihiro, Good Job Media, MTBB, and so on.

The fansub community may not be as big as it once was, but it never went away, it just evolved, and the groups got more selective about what they translated.

They also use a lot less weebspeak these days. In fact I'd say that current era fansubs look much more professional, since now they have competition, their focus is often on trying to make good English equivalents of puns that the official translators ignored or didn't get quite right, and generally trying to fill in the gaps that official subs can't - again, like the music that official licensors need to get permission for, and etc. We found our way to watching fansubs because of then-lacking/nonexistent official song subtitles for Symphogear, for instance. (This was before the series got blu-ray releases with essentially official fansubs.)

So, I would speculate that the focus is nowadays a lot less on making the weebs feel included, and more on catering to folks who went looking for other options when they found the legit options to not suit them.

(This is still not at all the case with manga scanlation)

We (somewhat rightly) mock the 2000's era fansub translation notes for their otaku fixations and privileging of trivia over the media, but they should be understood as serving their purpose for a bit of a different era in the anime fandom. Take this classic:

Like, its so obvious, right? Just say "pervert", you don't need the note! Which is true, for like a 'normie' audience member who just wants to watch A TV Show - but no one watching, uh *quick google* "Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne" in 1999 is that person. The audience is weebs, and for them the fact that show is Japanese is a huge selling point. They want it to feel as 'anime' as possible; and in the west language was one of the core signifiers of anime-ness. 2004 con-goers calling their friends "-kun" and throwing in "nani?" into conversations was the way this was done, and alongside that a lexicon of western anime fandom terminology was born. Seeing "ecchi" on the screen is, to this person, a better viewing experience - it enhances their connection to otaku identity the show is providing, and reinforces their shared cultural lexicon (Ecchi is now a term one 'expects' anime fans to know - a truth that translator notes like this simultaneously created and reflected).

But of course your audiences have different levels of otaku-dom, and so you can't just say 'ecchi' and call it a day - so for those who are only Level 2 on their anime journey, you give them a translation note. Most of the translation notes of the era are like this - terms the fansubber thought the audience might know well enough that they would understand it and want that pure Japanese cultural experience, but that not all of them would know, so you have to hedge. The Lucky Star one I posted is a great example of that:

Its Lucky Star, the otaku-crown of anime! You desperately want the core text to preserve as much anime vocab as possible, to give off that feeling, but you can't assume everyone knows what a GALGE is - doing both is the only way to solve that dilemma.

This is often a good guideline when looking at old memetically bad fansubs by the way:

This isn't real, no fansub had this - it was a meme that was posted on a wiki forum in 2007. Which makes sense, right? "Plan" isn't a Japanese cultural or otaku term, so there is no reason not to translate it, it doesn't deepen the ~otaku connection~.

Which, I know, I'm explaining the joke right now, but over time I think many have grown to believe that this (and others like it) is a real fansub, and that these sort of arbitrary untranslations just peppered fansub works of the time? It happened, sure, but they would be equally mocked back then as missteps - or were jokes themselves. Some groups even had a reputation for inserting jokes into their works, imo Commie Subs was most notable for this; part of the competitive & casual environment of the time. But they weren't serious, they are not examples of "bad fansubs" in the same way.

This all faded for a bunch of reasons - primarily that the market for anime expanded dramatically. First, that lead to professionally released translations by centralized agencies that had universal standards for their subs and accountability to the original creators of the show. Second, the far larger audience is far less invested in anime-as-identity; they like it, but its not special the way its special when you are a bullied internet recluse in 2004. They just want to watch the show, and would find "caring" about translation nuances to be cringe. And since these centralized agencies release their product infinitely faster and more accessibly than fansubs ever did, their copies now dominate the space (including being the versions ripped to all illegal streaming sites), so fansubs died.

Though not totally - a lot of those fansub groups are still around! Commie Subs is still kicking for example. They either do the weird nuance stuff, or fansub unreleased-in-the-west old or niche anime, or even have pivoted to non-anime Japanese content that never gets international release. But they used to be the taste-makers of the community; now they are the fringe devotees in a culture that has moved beyond them. So fansubs remain something of a joke of the 90's and 2000's in the eyes of the anime culture of today, in a way that maybe they don't deserve.

How To Take Care Of Your Vintage Lamps?

Vintage lamps exhibit timeless appeal and lend a touch of nostalgia to any decor. Carefully maintaining your antique lamps will keep them shining for years, whether you received them as a gift or found them at a flea market. Here, you'll learn how to care for your treasured antique lights so that they retain their luster and efficiency for years to come.

1. Dusting and Cleaning

Dusting softly: Use a soft, dry cloth to regularly dust and clean your antique lights. This easy maintenance routine keeps the lamp free of dirt and dust, extending its life and beautiful look.

Cleaning products: Choose gentle, nonabrasive cleaners wherever possible. Cleaning vintage lamps with harsh chemicals risks ruining their fragile surfaces and coatings. Cleaning using a solution of mild soap and water or vinegar is usually safe.

Careful polishing: Metal and brass lamp parts can restore their shine with periodic cleaning. Use a reputed metal polish applied with a soft cloth, and be cautious to avoid scratching or wearing away any protective coatings.

2. Protection from the Natural Factors

Sun protection: Lamp shades and finishes are especially susceptible to fading and cracking when exposed to direct sunlight. Protect your antique lamps from direct sunlight by placing them in a shaded area or using window coverings.

Constant temperature: Vintage lamps, especially those constructed of fragile materials like glass or porcelain, are susceptible to damage from sudden shifts in temperature. Keep lights in a steady atmosphere to avoid cracks and other damage.

3. Safeguarding Electrical Components 

Check wiring: Older vintage light wires may become brittle and eroded over time. Regularly check for fraying, exposed wires, and other damage indicators in the wiring. Contact an expert to rewire the lamp securely if you discover problems.

Proper bulbs: Ensure you use the right wattage and bulbs specified for your vintage lamps. Lampshades and other parts can be damaged by the extra heat produced by bulbs whose wattage is higher than what is advised.

Disconnect timely: Remove your antique lamp from its power source before cleaning or maintaining it. This elementary measure protects you from harmful electric shock and protects your lamp. 

4. Presentation and Location

Strategic positioning: Think about the room where you plan to put your vintage lights. Avoid having them get bumped into or knocked over by keeping them out of high-traffic areas. Choose areas where they may be enjoyed without severe wear and tear.

Keep changing: You should alternate using your collection of vintage lamps. It guarantees that no one light in your collection is subjected to excessive wear and tear due to overuse.

Expert care: Seek the advice of repair professionals if you have a precious or sentimental old lamp that needs work. They may restore your beloved lights to their former splendor by renewing old coatings and fixing structural issues.

Cleaning Services: Periodically cleaning your antique lights by a professional is a good idea. Professionals have the tools and training to clean the lamp carefully without damaging the fragile elements.

In conclusion, antique lamp maintenance entails routine cleaning, thoughtful positioning, and occasional expert attention. If you take care of your antique lighting correctly, it will continue to shine its warm light and share its story with future generations. Bring the timeless beauty of well-maintained vintage lamps from Fenchel Shades into your house and let their light carry you beyond time.
