The Yokozawa Takafumi no Baai movie goes on sale August 29, 2014, and is already up for preorder on sites that ship internationally like Amazon Japan (bluray, dvd)
Please note that the DVD is Region 2 (will not play in the US), while the BluRay is Region 1/A (WILL play in the US); make sure to check your country code before purchasing, unless you have a region-free player!
Will you be subtitling this?
Yes! We’re planning on doing so and expect to have the subbed version out very soon after the DVD is released. It will be released as an AVI hardsub.
So no softsubs?
To encourage those with the available funds to help support the franchise, anyone who provides proof of purchase (like a receipt, or a pic of yourself holding the DVD lol) of the DVD/BluRay will be freely given the standalone subtitle file. This will be a relatively small file that you select when playing the DVD in a player like VLC that will automatically append the subs to the video as you watch :) If you’ve gone through the trouble of purchasing the DVD, after all, we want to help you enjoy it to its fullest!
Can we use your subtitles to sub in our own language?
Yes and no…kind of? If you want to just eyeball the screen and translate the text you see in our AVI hardsubbed version and then time and encode your own non-English version using a raw file you got somewhere, or block out our subs and paste your own over them…have fun. We won’t try to stop you (mostly because we can’t).
If you would like access to our ALREADY-TIMED subtitle file (the one we give anyone who purchases the DVD), where all you have to do is just change the English text in the file to your own language and VOILA instant subs, you’ll have to do as everyone else does and provide proof of purchase. Just our way of trying to give the movie a few more sales. It’s also a pain in the butt to time these things, and the movie isn’t super short, so we’d like others to have to do a little work in this case :P
So this means that at the end of August, we’ll get: New Onodera Ritsu no Baai, new Yokozawa Takafumi no Baai novel canon, and Yokozawa Takafumi no Baai movie! August-September is gonna be pretty darn awesome XD
