Version 5! Oh sorry, force of habit.
Kusadama 薬玉 【くすだま】 (n) ornamental scent bag, decorative paper ball
From the kanji for "medicine/chemicals" and "ball". You know these things, they pop open and banner or confetti falls out. Looking at the definition, I guess there was a time when scented herbs were included at some point? Anyone want to look up the etymology for that for me? Words are fun!

Allllright. Think this one is good for sure. Sorry about messing up so many times. Just one of those things where you fix one thing and something else breaks.

Scratch that, the audio is missing the delay. Get ready for version four ze!
Clipped off the audio from 6-8 and reallocated it to video. Hurray!
But all seriousness, you probably won't notice any difference in video quality. This release is mostly for people who haven't downloaded version 2 yet and people who want to archive the best quality version possible.

Time 01 version 3. In case you didn't see my post earlier, I wasn't satisfied with the quality of the version 2 encode. I've been experimenting with filters all week and this is what I've come up with. I think this is much better and that you should delete our previous versions.
Some of you may be wondering why you should get this version instead of the ones we released 5 years ago. This version has a better translator. There's a better QC standard now. We have Ais' awesome typesetting. Plus they will fit in better with the rest of the episodes when we get to them.

So I've been experimenting with different filters over the week, and I think I've found a better way of dealing with those crappy old Toei DVDs. The gist of it is, a new version of Time 1 is forthcoming and it should look better than the one I released earlier this week.
I'm sure this is more intricate than most of you care to know, but compared to the newer DVDs like Zyu or Dai, the early Toei DVDs release before 2002ish were really awful to deal with. It'd use these awful interlacing techniques or with Kuuga, the whole TV series was letterboxed. It's just a pain in the ass.
Blu-rays are pretty awesome to encode by comparison. But not everything comes out on Blu-ray. Anyway, enough griping about stuff. Back to work. Back to work.

I summon DaiZyuJin in attack mode! And that's 20% done for ZyuRanger, not too shabby for half a year's work.
But man, what an unfortunate DVD/Blu-Ray release schedule. Japan usually releases stuff in the last third of the month. So we've got Eternal and Precure DX 3 from last month. But for some reason they released the August stuff the first week. So now there's All Riders Net Movies, Garo movie, and stuff going on as well. And next month there's Kiba and the DC for OOO/W. Crazy! I think the OOO hyper battle video should be coming out soon too.
Remember when a series was just a TV series, a movie, and a hyper battle video? When did everything become so complicated?

Fixed up translation, better encode. Time 01 is rereleased. If you've enjoyed seeing Ais effects in Gokai, then watch them in the actual series here. This new version has been a long time coming.
By the way, did you know that at one time, TimePink and Gills was married?
So I'm basically releasing this before the rest of Zyu because I want to gather more splash pics for it. If you're an artist or something, maybe consider putting one together for us? Just needs to be 640x480 and have #TV-Nihon somewhere in there. As well as the artist's name.
