Ah, what a beautiful man

I'm too busy fawning over Arthur Rank to think of a better post title for our new release.

Innocent Beauty Arthur Rank 1 (AKA Xabungle 44)

Episode 43 is finally here!

Sorry for all the delays, but we've finally managed to sort all the problems involved, so episode 43 is here for you all!

Available in both classic and new raw format. Both come bundled with the appropriate .ass.

EDIT: Changed the links to BayFiles.

On the subject of DDLs

I've been meaning to post about this for a while now, but Masoukishin II stopped me. As you know, our DDL releases were on Megaupload (Mega, mega, upload) and they are gone now. I haven't yet started to upload the episodes elsewhere because I'm waiting for it to become clear which DDL services are going to stick around in the aftermath. If anybody else wants to upload the episodes somewhere right now, you can do it (not that I could stop you even if I wanted to).

The answer to the ultimate question of Xabungle, Tomino and everything

Episode 42 has finally gone through our quality control process (read: us making bad jokes and improving a few lines), so here it is for your viewing pleasure.

Video, subs and everything

So long and thanks for all the subs

Since my usual Saturday pastime of playing Pokeyman cards is not happening this week, I'll spend the extra time on translating 44 and probably 45 too. "But what about episode 43", you ask. Well, that's already translated, just needs a little spit to make it nice and shiny.

Xabungle Legends 3 is not cancelled

Well, getting episode 41 out took a bit longer than I expected, but here it is.

Full game

Demo version


In other news, a few people have shown interest in possibly helping us finish Xabungle faster. I still need to work out the details with them, so stay tuned for further updates.

We rise from the ashes like a magnificient phoenix

Wow, I have no idea how we ended up not getting any episodes out since November. The next break shouldn't be as long as that, since I'm already working on the translation. Oh, and people from /m/ might remember me mentioning a SECRET SPECIAL MEMBER that's been helping me and Sardien out with this episode. Some of you may have guessed this already, but Denkou is back! Oh yeah! He's now doing essentially the same work I did back when he was the primary translator.

And now the moment you've been waiting for, Xabungle episode 39 in glorious DDL:

Full service

Man the subs

Fanservice time!

There's a rather steamy shower scene in this one.

Nice long shower

A quick shower to wake you up

Sorry that the release took longer than I expected, I forgot to check Sardien's schedule before making that promise. Now back to playing this dating sim I call My Korean Life...

Welcome to flight 3637 to Zola

This is your captain speaking. I'll jump from the plane in Korea, but don't worry, the movies we are showing include Xabungle episodes 36 and 37.

Put on your headsets and enjoy the show

Light reading for the flight

Fatman Begins

I hope you enjoy our new double release, now with 100% more Fatman Power than before.

Fatman Power, full power!

Fatman Power, minimum burst!

I should be able to do at least two more episodes before heading to Korea. Once I'm there, I'm hoping to maintain a "at least 1 episode each month" schedule.

Giant moles join forces with the Iron Gear

Well, I got started a bit late in June, so that month's second episode slipped into early July. Here's episode 32, now with 100% more tsundere Blume.

I'm a poor, lonesome translator...

Well, you might have noticed that we haven't released a new episode in a long time. The nefarious subninjas have been using their most vile mind tricks to screw with Denkou's brain during the last few months and he is now unable to continue working on Xabungle. However, this doesn't mean that the project will be dropped: I'm taking up the entire translation duty with Sardien continuing as the timer/editor. I am currently working on my Master's thesis, but I should have enough time to translate at least two episodes each month until September. Then I'll be heading to Korea for a year to research Super Taekwon V and I'm not sure how much time for subbing I will have while I'm there, but I promise you that this show will be finished one way or another.

We have lost a hero to our glorious and noble cause, but does this foreshadow our defeat? No. It is a new beginning. Compared to subninjas, the national resources of AXSUS are less than one thirtieth of theirs. Despite this major difference, how is it that we have been able to fight the fight for so long? It is because our goal in this war is a righteous one.

Now salute Denkou for his great work as a member of our team and then click on the links below to download episode 31.

Merry Christmas, dear viewers

It's a bit early, but here's your Christmas present.

A Sweet Sweater also avalaible.

This will be the last new episode this year, see you again in 2010: The Year We Make Contact (or Odyssey Two, if you want to stick with the novel's title).

Hey you! Hey you! It's episode 25!

It has two sub files too, one with the insert song translated and the other without any additional stuff on screen.

Video with two ASSes

Just the dual ASS

A batch torrent is fine too

Oh, and Who's That WM? posted last time now has some additional information from Professor Cotset.

What time is it? It's naked MILF o' clock

See everything.

If you're just an .ASS man, we've got you covered as well.

Oh, and Denkou provided us with some additional fun, but I'm too tired right now to figure out how to properly add it here, so I'll edit it in tomorrow. There's a super extra special mega preview of it on 4chan's /m/, though.

EDIT: And here's that game, now that I'm finally awake enough to figure out how to make Blogspot accept the code for a "click and reveal".


Who's that Walker Machine?

It's Dugger!












Dugger was designed with simple technology and as such is a very dependable machine, but it lacks some mobility compared to the Government or Caprico type.

It is generally equipped with a 4 tube missile launcher with continuous fire as left arm part and a large pincer as right arm part, though variants have been seen with two missile launcher arms equipped (e.g. episode 24). Like a bird, it's reverse legged. There are four hovernozzles placed on the base of its fuselage which allow the Dugger to perform long jumps. Having two turret pods and one central cockpit, three people are needed to operate the machine to its fullest potential, but a driver in the cockpit can also operate the turrets with a remote control. The central cockpit can accommodate two people, and there is some flat space on its torso which could be used to transport even more, so its transportation capability is pretty high for a Walker Machine.

It's considered to be a rather old type of Walker Machine, but thanks to the heavy armor and good amount of fixed armaments it remains popular among Breakers and Rockmen. Jiron's father, "Arms of Steel" used one. It was designed by Yutaka Izubuchi.

Specs
Height: 16.9m
Weight: 125.0t
Power: 24000HP
Crew (max): 1 (4)

Fixed armaments
20mm machine gun turrets x 2 (on top part)
4 tube continuous missile launcher (left arm)
12.7mm machine gun turret (anti-aircraft turret on the back)

AXSUS' first anniversary! Daironeri is (almost) 25! Episode count is 23!

Well, today's the anniversary of AXSUS' first release and tomorrow's my 25th birthday, so in accordance with the ancient Hobbit tradition, you guys get a gift too.

Big package

Small package

Our original plan was to release episode 22 on Sardien's 22nd birthday on November 12th and 25 for the anniversary/my birthday, but that ninja kidnapping screwed up our schedule.

Surprise! It's episode 22 already!

Rag saga continues, now with 50% more betrayal than before. Also, domestic violence.

For some reason I feel like Akon should shout "Breast Fire"

After a couple of Elchi centric episodes, we turn our attention to Rag for a tale of love, betrayal and bathing in a barrel.

New DDL links for episodes 4-6

It appears they have gone down and for some reason I can't edit the original posts, so you get a shiny new post.

Oh, and in case you haven't been reading the comments, here's some delicious pasta of my bub Sardien on why the hell there hasn't been MOAR SUBS lately:

Don't worry, we'll see this through to the end.

We kinda forgot to synch up our vacation plans and ended up with some other obligations. We do suck for not announcing our break here, but it all just went so fast.

Some work on the next episode is done, but can't say when it'll be ready for release. It's an incredibly emotional episode with Jiron Amos dieing in quicksand and stuff.

Batch torrent for 1-17, some updates to the .ass files

Well, at long last we are ready to release the new batch torrent for episodes 1-17. There are some changes made to the earlier versions (especially the first five episodes), so even you folks who already have the subs should download this pack of .ass. The video files are the same as before so you can keep those.
