[gg]_White_Album_-_14_[2BFA2D83].mkv
it's out by gg. some might want to hold off and see if Eclipse will be doing this, for consistencies sake. though i just went with them.

the episode was pretty much exactly like the first season. if there was something you liked/disliked about the first season, chances are it's still here.
i thought it was a pretty good introduction back into the series. at first i was pretty lost, without remembering much of what happened at the end of the first season. But by the end of this episode i was definitely back into the White Album mindset.

Yeah, me too, especially when they went to the apartment to pick up this Menou girl. I was sitting here thinking, I don't remember her at all. Mana's mom sure beat her down good, though. If that one guy hadn't intervened, it would have turned into a crime scene.
I'm guessing that the girl that came to visit her in the storeroom is going to be the new Yuki. She seems like she could be the amateur type they're looking for to compete against the Rina/Yuki combo.
Poor Yuki. She doesn't seem to realize how much screwing around (literally) is going on behind her back. I can't wait to see her reaction when she finds out.
Rina is still my favorite. I enjoyed the song she was singing on the TV screen immensely.

yeah definitely, when it like turned into a music video, and it had the dude with the guitar on his back, that was really cool

Yeah, I think that was Eiji when he was younger. When he stood up with the guitar in his hand, I thought he was going to smash that painting to bits, but he called Franky instead. It was kind of weird hearing him being referred to as something other than "Master".

I find myself surprised to see that all the hatred I harbored toward Misaki last season has totally shifted onto Yuki.
Yuki just comes off woefully immature, a fitting match for Touya I suppose, while Misaki has gotten over whatever obnoxious funk she was in and became responsible and mature. Calling out Touya for being an asshole was quite impressive. Misaki seems to have developed a great deal of confidence in only a matter of days. Yuki doesn't seem to have made nearly as much progress as they made it out to be after her concert. She's gotten even more pathetic by comparison. Everything she did this episode just screamed...child.
Sharply contrasting Menou. It does seem like she will leave the Sakura Girls and strike out on her own, perhaps either supporting the singer/songwriter girl, or performing with her. It seemed like they added them both to the ED (unless all those dark haired girls were young Yayoi!), so I guess they will be playing major roles soon.
Rina was just really confusing this episode. They didn't fill us in on what she was worried about. I'd like to see more of her, and especially her with Touya instead of Yayoi, but I guess we will have to wait and see.
Touya of course, is rather weak willed as always. Pathetic.
Rina's song by the way, is SOUND OF DESTINY, and was released last season as a single with another song.

Aww, what the hell.
White Album added to the Crunchyroll Fall Lineup
How can they do so many shows that they didn't even do the first seasons of? Way to screw both watchers of fansubs and your paying members.
-
Yeah, I heard about this earlier when Koda announced that they dropped it. No one else released White Album 14 besides gg, so HorribleSubs is my only hope now.

Edit: Wow, CR has 13 of the new fall shows. That's pretty insane.
01. Letter Bee
02. Asura Cryin' 2
03. Natsu no Arashi 2
04. Sora no Otoshimono
05. Book of Bantorra
06. Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu 2
07. Miracle Train
08. Sasameki Koto
09. 11eyes
10. Shin Koihime Musou
11. Fairy Tail
12. White Album
13. Shugo Chara Party!

I might just have to bend over and take it by paying those assholes at this rate. I'll be supporting the creators at least. I don't really have an legitimate excuse against it since CR works in my region.
Problem is...I've got a good feeling they will screw up White Album because they don't seem to bother with insert songs, and I wonder how they will sub Touya's thoughts written out on the screen.
But at the very least it will break immersion with their generic fonts scrawled across the top of the screen instead of nicely woven in like quality fansubs did.
...shit.
-
Ugh, White Album won't start on CR until Wed at 3:30 eastern, even though 14 has already been subbed and a raw for 15 has been out since Friday. I hope someone subs 15 before then.
-
so are thye just gonna up the whole of season 1, and then simulcast season 2? will they be starting with episode 14? so like, we have to wait for them to air ep 14, and then they're gonna be like 2 weeks behind the actual airing of the show?
ugg, i'm so confused.. why did they have to go and pick this up...
-
Episodes 14 & 15 are going up at the same time. The countdown timer on each is the same.
-
-
I can't blame CR's translation for the confusion of this episode. Their translation wasn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be, even if it lacked a certain elegance.
I seriously have no clue what the hell went on here. I'm hoping I wasn't meant to.
So this is what I got out of this episode...
- Akira: Still an asshole.
- Touya: Still a scumbag.
- Yuki: Still annoying.
- Yayoi: Still a robot skank.
- Misaki: Still obsessed with Touya.
- Touya's Dad: Still in love with Misaki (hopefully in a daughter-in-law way).
- Ogata: Still ultra-secretive.
- Mana & Haruka: Still not yuri?
- Rina: Still too small a part!

I am still disappointed Eclipse isnt releasing this show.
I'd like to see someone release a 720p verion of it.

Episode 16 by TMD
-
16 = S2 ep 3, right? all this continuing from the first seasons episode numbering is throwing me off x_x.
alright! still like 2 days until a CR release, but a subs already out. this is awesome :D
-
Yeah, Episode 16 is the third ep of the second season. It won't be on CR until Wednesday, so it was nice to see it two days ahead of time.

Episode 17 & 2nd Season OP + ED Singles

I have no idea what's going on in this show right now. Or why everybody likes Touma.
I don't think Akira's been a bitch even once this season.
Menou looks much more like Yayoi than Mana.
Right now the biggest problem I'm having with this show is the seemingly lack of coherency. Stuff's just happening for the sake of happening. I don't see any reasoning or point behind it.
