Hi Everyone! This is L speaking. This is an introduction post to our humble abode.
K here! Yoroshiku!
We're called Shimai Fansubs because shimai in japanese = sisters, and that's what we are. The two of us (that's K and me) started to sub to practise our Japanese and because K is a massive fan of Shoon/Hyakushiki. Okay, so basically, it was a project started by K and L went along with it. Now, K does 99% of the work, and I help her with timing and checking and generally we spend our time arguing over what they're mumbling on the show.
Which, K wants to add, is about all of the time because Innochi et al are either mumbling or squeezing a full sentence into one long, slurred syllable. We kid you not.
By the way, L is too humble. She does the layout and icons because K is clueless about photoshop and has no idea about html and whatnot. Without L, these subs would still be scripts in some dark corner of K's computer.
We're not exclusive to Hyakushiki, we sub Hyakushiki because we like it, but we'll probably sub anything else we like, not limited to just JE programs.
SO! on to the main topic, and that's our Ground Rules
basically we are all right with our subs being streamed online and whatnot and all that- However we have just one rule...
We ask that you please credit us. Whether you are uploading on streaming sites or using caps from our subs or taking our translations, PLEASE CREDIT US. It would be nice if you could let us know where you are uploading them as well.
We know there are many non-English speaking fans out there, so if you wish to use our subs for re-subbing to your native language, we ask that you please inform us. We work very, very hard on our translations and we hope this is not too much to ask out of you.
That's about all we have to say, so, please have fun, and look forward to our new releases!
Thank you for all your support and feel free to friend us! Please let us know if you enjoy our subs!
