nice try

>Well /m/, in light of all the April Fool's pranks

I don't know if your seriously being... serious... or pulling the most epic troll on my fragile heart right now.

If this is legit I want to Kill Em ALL

>>4795972
The timing for this is just...too perfect.

if it wasn't a prank it would've been posted two days ago

>>4795993

No, mainly because I had to CONFIRM whether I was being trolled by Bandai or not. I had to call bullshit on them "representing" Kadokawa, but *shrugs* it is what it is.

Cool story bro

>>4795996

So... If this is real, and you aren't pulling legs, are you shutting Zeonic down?

>>4795996
I guess what they are trying to tell you and the rest of us is that they don't want us to have more gundamu :-(

>Robert Napton
Now imagine this bloke knocking on your door shouting an order for you to C&D

>we believe that the entire Internet community benefits etc.

I-I I have no suitable reaction image for this.

I can't put my anger and sorrow into words, now how I am suppose read the Unicorn manga?

Come on, this HAS to be an April's Fool joke.

There is absolutely nothing stopping you from continuing to scanlate and uploading the finished product on mediafire or some such. They can't stop it if it has no central source, ie a website.

lol at trying to control the internet

Cool Century Gothic bro

>>4795972
can you just me the gist?

Yes, a scan comes out perfectly like so, and C&Ds come in PDFs using non-standard fonts.

Forgive me for my healthy suspicion for all news of this day.

Not. Biting. See you tomorrow.

8D

I copied it over from the PDF that it was in... hence the [Private]. It's called censorship.

Translate volume 5 of Char's Deleted Loli affair already

>Gundam manga translations get C&D
>Big 3 manga translations still exist

funny how things work

hahahaha,

no

Go home Deacon and stop the 00 shit. Translate something people actually give a shit about.

>>4795972
This wasn't funny the first time you did it and it isn't funny now.

in b4 CLOSING ZEONIC AGAIN

the person does not know how to write a letter. the salutation is not followed by a colon (:). a colon is used in many ways, one of them being to list items. but not used like that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colon_(punctuation)

I'll kill you if it's true!

>>4796147
Ending the salutation with a colon is standard in business letters. There should be plenty of easily available templates that show this, if you want to check.

>>4796183
That is true, however it still is not entirely correct.

>>4796196
Who said that it has to be right for everyone to follow it? They just do.

C&Ds are sent by lawyers, not the Director of Marketing. And probably on law firm stationary.

Come back when you can actually write.

What's Zeonic?

>>4796250
This is also the problem with their scanlations actually.

I'm not sure if the people who believe this are really that gullible or they're double April Fooling me.

>>4795972
I might have believed this since last month Bandai went on a Jihad deleting most Gundam related material from Youtube.

Good old Deacon. Always had a snarky sense of humor. Greetings from Zeonic, past, present, and an insight to the future! I miss you all.

>>4796265
>>4796250
ITT: People bitching about a free product.

>>4796334
>implying a really shitty attempt at April Fool's qualifies as free product
And yes, you are a fag.

>>4796322
Shouldn't you be busy doing more drugs and spamming more channels?

If this is actually real, I have just one thing to say:

Maybe if they didn't take so fucking long to get releases out to the english market, if they even get them out at all, there wouldn't be a need for scanlators.

OP is gay and no one can prove me wrong.

>>4796579
Sadly, the good old days are over, my friend. Many have moved on. It was truly a great time that we all had.

>>4797058
>good days

So you're even more an of asshole drug abuser now? Cool story bro.

I miss the earlier days of anime releases in the US, when fansubbers would be hired on by companies wanting to find motivated employees, and then pay them for what was once a hobby... rather than getting utterly fucked over by them in the legal system like nowadays.

>>4797078
Old grudges, my friend. Drugs consumed. Fun had. The past was a great big ride of excitement. BAMF and I went to rehab. You are forgiven my son. Go with Christ or some other deity. No hard feelings to you and your ilk. The Internet evolves and changes. Even this very site. Just sit back and relax. Enjoy your hobbies. People calling out assholes leads in turn they are now the assholes themselves. I hold no grudges on times past. In a short moment as the universe blinks its eye on us. This will be petty dust long forgotten. Try to enjoy that what is now.

>>4797370

HURF

>implying we're going to miss you

We can post to facebook now...?

BRB letting the whole of UB lol at this.

>>4797176
Go to Europe or Mexico

>>4797370
You have no grudges to hold because you're the one who caused everyone shit in the first place. Zeonic should get die. Biggest group of asshats and users I ever did see, even gg is more civil and less backstabbing.

>>4797426
Yes actually! I don't use facebook but it's an interesting choice to say the least.

>>4797487
They still do that in Europe?

>>4797426
Doesn't this kind of remove the anonymity of posters on here? Also would you really want people knowing you post on here?

Sage for non-contribution.

ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWER

how is removing this for the benefit of the entire internet community?

Do not know if serious.

>>4797426
Facepalm.

>>4796208

This

Yes, this was really just a prank on my part. I've been doing this stuff for nearly six years... why would they suddenly come after us now? :P

^_^

Damnit Deacon, I thought it was serious.

And I was beginning to DL everything before you shut down!

Damn you!

>>4797960
What gave you that idea? I've not worked with ZC or even been around fansubbing for a good three years. It was all in good fun. This is the internet. Back then, at least; the Internet was not to be taken seriously. Why do you hold such grudges against me? Was there something personally I did to you? I never realized I was such a name among jerks. I feel sorta bad now.

You guys can translate it, just fucking decentralize you fucks and then release it here in /m/ when you're done.

LOL PEOPLE ARE STILL PISSED HAY GUIZE U R ALL FAGGOTS LOLOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOL.

People at ZC take shit waaay to seriously. As far as im concerned, ZC died years ago when all the serious-business faggots came to town.

>>4799298
Besides, it wouldn't be the first time you "quit," would it Deacky?

>>4800276

Decentralize what?

>>4800281
I guess to put it in such a way as you did, my good friend. Lee Marsh, you may be right.

>>4800294
he means ditch the site and post the translated stuff strait here and in /rs/.

>>4800295

Pretty much. Most of the people flaming you probably haven't been with the community very long. new fags are new. Hell, most of them probably dont even know you.

>>4800299

So I run a website, big fucking deal. I have direct downloads and a gallery with the releases on it. I post it on /m/ first and then on my website. Soooo problem = where?

>>4800294

I assume he meant have no website, just work on things then release them here without any "homebase" they could track down.

Of course it's all irrelevant given he didn't read your reply. Find it kinda funny anyone fell for it - props for that. Never will understand how people can fall for any April Fools joke.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju35JVEJ8T0 grease is the word

>>4800306

>So I run a website, big fucking deal. I have direct downloads and a gallery with the releases on it.

There's your problem.

Will you finish Gundam SEED Deltra Astray someday?

Or maybe translate Steel Seven?

>>4800336

And this is a problem... how?

>>4800325
Quite a snappy tune. Sure to be a hit with the kids.

>>4800346
$10 says it's just a troll.

>>4800340
I meant Frame Astrays. Didn't know why I wrote Delta Astray, I'm pretty certain it sucks.

If you translated something worthwile, let's say... not-Gundam 00, maybe I would have fallen.

>>4800352

Both suck. LoL. Not sure if we're gonna dabble in SEED anymore...

http://zeonic-republic.net/?p=1716

>>4800353

The only Gundam 00 related thing we translated last was 00V Senki, and even that was lame and pointless. Please see the last three Universal Century releases for examples, plus the upcoming Revival of Zeon manga.

>>4800358

What about the aforementioned Crossbone: Steel Seven?

>>4800306
by posting to the site at all you made yourselves visible, and therefore and target for the notice you received.
Plus translating the 00 stuff was a massive red flag. stuff like F90 and Silhouette F91 were older and never coming to the states

>>4800361

Yes, given that I've been switching over to a new font, I've been reworking the first volume. As soon as I finish up the photoshop work on Char's Deleted Affair Volume 5, I'm going to pump that out. God knows I don't want another Crossbone thorn...

>>4800369

Draco... I already said it was a PRANK. lrn2read plz. :D

>>4800370
Yay.

>>4800370

Awesome, definitely anticipating that.

Could you tell me something though? I assume you've read the whole thing, so can you tell me what's up with the ending? Did Tobia get a nasty sunburn and become Bernadette's bodyguard or something? I didn't quite understand anything that happened after the X-1FC got fried.

>>4800355

>>4800378

Or anyone for that matter I suppose. This ending has stumped me for a long time.

>>4800408


Bumping one last time for answer.

*sigh* He basically follows her wherever she goes. She "hires" him to work for him.

Please finish CDA~

So he is the black guy then?

Awesome, I always knew Tobia had it in him.
