Fandom complains.

[yinghung]

And this is mostly for Kat-tun fans, but I don't even know how many Kat-tun fans would actually read my LJ.

I rarely participate or give comments with regards to discussion about fandom rules because different people have different opinions no matter how much I disagree with them. One example will be no reposting even if credits are given. I mean I

Comments

I really have no comment on most of this; I was never one to participate or help in fandom. Arashi may be the first group that I've followed with such a strong following, haha.

But I do wonder why Kame has been blasted with such poor roles of late. I mean, all my love to Oh-chan, but Maou and even Uta no Onii-san are superior to One Pound and Kami no Shizuku. Oh-chan's not even "popular;" at least I would wager that Kame is more so (take the results from Nikkan Sports as an example). I think that they weighted his popularity too heavily these past two times. When there are so many good dramas with strong storylines and great casting, can you really depend on one idol to pull in high viewer ratings? Apparently that was their hope.

I usually have no comments too, it's just the girl puts in so much efforts, my heart hurts for her.

LOL. well.... I have no watch any of the shows u mentioned except for Maou. But you are right, they can be hoping for kame alone to bring in the viewership. Either that or Johnny-san hates Kame.

Anyway, the saddest fandom must be SMAP. I have worked hard to find the maybe eight but surely still less than ten episodes of SMAPxSMAP, even dling torrents for weeks. If I ever learn enough Japanese, that is what I am going to attempt. (Then again, if I ever learn enough Japanese, I probably wouldn't care enough or be kind enough to help a fandom out, because I'm cruel. I'm nowhere as nice as you and other subbers, and I don't care about being "virtually" elite.)

(Sadly, Arashi doesn't need me for subbing; at least, not unless their popularity suddenly takes a downturn x:)

Is it terrible that I don't really notice colors then? And Arashi videos are very colorful; it's almost a prerequisite. I actually prefer the plain text ... good translation and grammar matter more to me than effects x: (although I do like karaoke themes!)

and I've only watched the Ohno dramas x:
but I still haven't finished Maou yet since I already knew what was going to happen from the original drama

*ask ohno to smack jenn with a fish*

you being an uploader is more than helping
*smack fish* *smack fish*

wait, why am i smacking the fish? o_O
*salwa ish high*

[yuckie_chan]

Who thinks they're mightier because they allow people to share their stuff? xD

People should try to live in the fandom 3 years ago where I just started subbing and all existed subs can be counted by one hand.

[yinghung]

Ahhaa... I am not pointing fingers at anyone. It's just that I think some fangirls insinuates this, and it's a little upsetting. :X

YAYS to your internet. I LOVE YOUR RANDOM SPAMMING. so that I wont feel like the only one doing spamming my flist. XD

I was about to point fingers with a link, then I realized that your entry does not seem to be locked. :x

[yinghung]

ya. This post will serve no purpose locked.

We can always point fingers to CK in private.

*eyes her newest locked entry*

[yinghung]

and Ohmiya-sg and en-chan! and futari!!! We are not dead. We have subs ready for release soon!!! XD

[jliann]

I guess I don't really see the validity of that complaint. I'd agree that it's *hard* being a Kat-tun fan, but I wouldn't hate being a fan just because of slow subs. It's the group that should decide whether you like being a fan -- not whether you get subbed vids or not.

And plus - slow subs better than no subs at all, right? That's the view I take, anyway. That's why I don't consider uploader's/scanner's demands unreasonable --ever. If they're nice enough to scan/upload/sub, then their demands over their own efforts = Law, to me, and I'm bloody well going to follow it.

I don't ever want to be a reason for people to stop doing nice things for fandom, is why.

[yinghung]

I only feel so sad for pple running those kattun sub groups and comms because they work so hard, and they get the most crap. :X

*is fuming*

[ohmiya_sg]

KAT-TUN GETS MORE SUBS IN A MONTH THAN TOKIO HAS EVER GOTTEN THAT EN OR I HAD NO HAND IN.

FUCKERS.

Re: *is fuming*

[ohmiya_sg]

Nah, Nagase's too nice for that. :/

I'm glad.^^

Re: *is fuming*

[yinghung]

I know. And honestly. I think Jones records is like the best maintained comm in the fandom. so kat-tuns really shld not be complaining at all.

*back to translating tsuyo-shi.... Boring LOL*
