Nodame Cantabile

So no uploading or downloading for me at the moment (and I'm so close to finishing the 720p raw of Lost Time Life too!). My wireless connection can be iffy at times. I'll start up Utorrent before I head to bed and leave it running. I'll only be seeding Episode 4 for now, but FarOutFreak if my connection picks up tomorrow I'll restart Episode 1 for you.

Thanks. I usually leave torrents downloading overnight and kill the client before going to work. Not sure if it'll help a lot since either of you may be seeding while I'm away, given the time difference :sweat:. I see two seeders and one peer currently.

I really have to get a better ISP at some point, since I'm getting used to the 720p episodes of shows out.

Will let you know if it goes faster by my morning...

I still have Episode 1 running and have Episodes 4 and 5 downloading... At a 2KB crawl. :sweat:

We'll see what we can do in regards to the time difference. I should be able to upload more in the next few days, so perhaps we'll both be on at the same time so you can connect to me. With not very many seeders or peers, the download rates are going to be slow, but that's pretty much a given knowing how bittorrent works. I checked the stats for Episode 1 and the average upload rate is at 7 kB/s, so the download rate will be around there as well.

Leaving it on for the day, will see if more progress is made later. Am currently at 42% now, so pretty significant jump over the last 6 hours.

My Episode 4 download is tanking..... Help! :sweat: :puppydog:

I find myself still waiting for DVD. Didn't come last Friday or Saturday, and I opened the mail Monday in hopes I could at least take it with me to work, but nope. Got a delivery notice, except upon reading I saw it had nothing to do with our place at all. I'm just hoping my package didn't drop at that place. Doesn't help that the confirmation number Yesasia gave me doesn't work.

On the seeding front I'm just uploading Ep.4 for now. I'll reseed Ep.1 one later today.

I've noticed in the past that YesAsia's delivery info tends to be lacking... :sweat:

Yatta! :woot:

I'm still seeding Episode 1 as well... Don't know how long I'll keep live... :sweat:

Now at 80% for Episode 1. Should be ok in a day or two. :sweat:

When you say DVD, this is the box set? Does that have subtitles?

It's a good thing you're at 80%, it'll make it easier to seed Ep.1 since you don't have much more to complete. You should be ok for the next four episodes as well. I saw 2-3 seeders for the next four, so hopefully it won't take too long to download.

When I refer to the DVD I actually mean the Location Guide DVD, which is a behind the scenes look of the filming in Paris and Prague. Sadly, it did not show up in the mailbox today either and the latest issue of Wired serves as no consolation whatsoever. Anyhow, I believe neither this DVD nor the box set have subtitles, at least the official ones. You can scour Ebay, but it's safe to assume those are merely ones downloaded from d-addicts or other sites and hardsubbed.

Lastly when I'm done with Ep.1 and 4, I'll probably hold off on uploading Ep.5 seeing as there are two seeders. I just need some time get some uploading of other things out of the way before going back to the Nodame raws. Should take a day. Once I get that done, I can just focus on Nodame for the uploads, with Last Friends as the only show I'm downloading.

Japanese subtitles. :sweat:



Yatta! Episode 4 is finally on the go after three insufferable 2KB days... :sweat:

Episode 4 download complete! :woot: :dancing:

On to Episode 6...! :fingerscrossed:

Done with episode 1!

Should I continue with episode 2? That's slow, as well. Or should I go with the other episodes first?

The download time is excruciating... :banghead:

Download what you can for now. I just started seeding Ep. 2 and will continue to do so for the rest of the day and evening. Hopefully it'll give you a boost in download rate.

Far as download time goes, well it's to be expected really, slow rates and all. A little bit of patience, and Juri-chan (or Tamaki, Eita, Asami, whoever tickles your fancy) in 720p glory will eventually be yours :victory:

Episode 5 is in the bank...! :woot:

Episode 6 has one peer... :puppydog:

Just started Episode 7... One seed, 5KB/sec. :sweat:

Currently seeding the following episodes:

I'm sure you all have an idea as to which episodes each shot was taken from. If not, then shame on you :sweat:

That doesn't do me any good: I need Episode 6 at the moment... :sweat:

I think I darn near fried my brain trying to process that statement.

FarOutFreak, I've had Ep. 2 seeding throughout the day, but I haven't been able to connect with anyone, so it looks like you might want to jump to the later episodes for now. I'll try to figure out another way to upload Ep. 2.

Yeah, I'm bummed that the DVD didn't show up too Nodame :(

Wow you're definitely the winner for the evening. Pouty Nodame rules. And how can you go wrong with toast-sig?

Oh, come on.... Toast??? :headscratch:
