What the hell is this? _Check the Show Information above._ 2. I know what this show is, but what is THIS? _An (almost) untouched transport stream that was capped from the semi-recent Tokyo MX re-airing of the show (this episode aired in July 2010)._ 3. Almost untouched? What did you do to it?!?! _The original file itself had three video streams: a 1seg stream (for mobile phones, 320x180), this stream, and another stream that didn't have anything important on it (digital subchannel, maybe?). So, to cut down on size, I removed the 1seg and the unimportant video streams, but everything else is the same. (No, there were not any closed captions.)_ 4. Woah, this show is ancient! I don't even see any DVDs for it on Amazon! How did you get this? _I got it from Share, and there are a bunch more where this came from. However, I do not know if all of the episodes are available, so if there are missing episodes there's nothing I can do about it._ 5. Why start at episode 50? _I didn't intend to. This file was tagged episode 0 on Share, so I thought it was some sort of preview or summary episode. It wasn't till I checked the episode title on ANN that I realized it was actually episode 50._ 6. 720x480i? I thought Tokyo MX was 1440x1080i! _JPTV Trivia: Tokyo MX switches to an SD channel during the day. Why? Maybe so they can allocate some bandwidth to that digital subchannel that I stripped. I don't live in Japan, so I have nfc._ 7. What is up with the audio? It sounds like shit! _I don't know if it's just my player, but while I get stereo during the commercials, it switches to mono (left) and garbage (right) during the episode itself. Maybe this show was only recorded in mono?_ 8. Will you upload the entire series? _I'll upload whatever I can find on Share and PD for it, and I'll continue to upload episodes till either nobody leeches them anymore, or till this starts boring me._ PS. Please continue subbing this show, ANBU!
