Rebellions, I mean Travelers released

So sit down, fellers, and listen to my theory. I think that Travelers is what became of that rad Rebellions trailer from a few years ago.

A few years ago, we saw Nao and Tsukui Minami do a rad trailer. They were on bikes and wore tight outfits and fought monster stuff. It looks like they were originally backed by Toei and the director was Sakamoto Koichi.

But I guess they didn't get the money they needed. So they turned to Next Media of Taiwan to get the funding, and changed some stuff. We've still got Nao in a partner role (her new partner is Kinoshita Ayumi of Yuuko/Jasmine fame). There's still prominent bikes. the L is still big and capitalized in the center of both logos. I think the case is strong.

Gaim 16 raw is messed up, will need a new source

So I guess the 5 seconds that were missing last week was a symptom of the capper dying. Like any good mecha anime, this is the time to bring in Capper V to replace his fallen brother, but we still need a raw for this week's episode of Gaim. Kyouryuuger was okay.

Strawberry Tart (Christmas Tree Style)

18 cm tart shell
2 15cm sponge cakes
About 15 sliced strawberries
*Custard cream
*Whipped cream
*Simple syrup

60 grams sugar
20 grams flour
200 mL milk
Dash of vanilla extract

(1) Beat egg yolks and granulated until whitish, slowly add flour and mix.

(2) Slowly add milk and any remaining flour. Add vanilla.

(3) Cook on medium heat, constantly stirring until it boils and thickens. Reduce heat and stir until smooth.

(4) Cool mixture. Once cooled, stir until it achieves a cream-like consistency.

(5) For whipped cream, beat 200 mL of heavy whipping cream and 20 grams of sugar together until whipped.

(6) For simple syrup, mix 25 grams of sugar with 50 mL water and 5 drops of lemon juice. Heat and stir until sugar is dissolved and mixture starts to boil.

(7) Cut the sponge cakes into circles of 15, 12, 9 and 6cm diameters.

(8) Put some simple syrup at the bottom of the tart shell and place the 15 cm cake inside

(9) Layer custard cream, strawberries and the whipped cream on top of the cake

(10) Successively layer on smaller and smaller sponge cakes with the cream and strawberry layers in between. Coat the whole tart in the remaining whipped cream and decorate like a Christmas tree with strawberries and sprinkles.

Gaim 15 HD v2 released

Just fixing the torrent to include the HD version of EXA.

Good news everybody

Someone generously provided a raw for Gaim 14, so an 1080 version is coming out after all.

KR Gaim 15, EXA, Yuta Cafe 1-2 released

A few seconds of the opening was lost, but it's just the recap footage. Sorry!

Hopefully the wonderful E-X-A music video and Yuta (Baron) Cafe 1-2 will salve the situation. Enjoy the bonuses!

KR Gaim 14 released (At last!)

   

Sorry this took forever. The only raws we found were 1280x720, so that's what we went with. No 1080 version this week. (We can revisit it from the Blu-ray later)

I finally got around to making a cheat-cheat for Matsubokkuri Arms and Donguri Arms. These were kind of hard, since I didn't have any obvious tricks for memorizing them. Still, maybe you'd find it interesting if you have trouble remembering these two words.

Update on last week's episodes

Sorry for the delay, between the hardware failure, staff members getting sick and moving, it's been a hectic mess. But we're turning things around and this week's episodes are in the process of getting done. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Anyone want to qc for Sexy Voice and Robo DVD versions?

E-mail if you're interested. Contact info is in the Contact Us tab above.

Someone volunteered to time shift the scripts and mark the parts where there's new lines, so this is a thing that's happening.

More wiki stuff: Articles about guest actors

http://wiki.tvnihon.com/wiki/Trope_Sentai_Member_Guests

Per someone's suggestion, I've created some more pages for listing guest actors for Kamen Rider and Sentai:

http://wiki.tvnihon.com/wiki/Trope_Toku_Guests_on_Kamen_Rider

http://wiki.tvnihon.com/wiki/Trope_Toku_Guests_on_Sentai

The latter is just a more generic version of the Sentai-only article above.

Thanks and have fun!

Probable image source

Apparently we released it yesterday, but I only found out about it today. Let me know if there's a release without a matching front page post, since sometimes the left hand doesn't talk with the right.
