Baldric Productions and he had such a wide assortment of fandubs. I found the quality of his tape to be excellent and his subtitles to be better than American dubbing, he even injected humor in his subtitles of the coming attractions. I know he has a bad reputation but I have no problem with the guy, through him we got anime that sometimes took years to reach our shores legitimately.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26498739.post-42911781086439029852010-10-09T13:44:04.140-07:002010-10-09T13:44:04.140-07:00E.

I don't even want to think about all the hundreds if not thoasands of dollars I dumped into fansubs back in the mid-ninties. I agree with annoymous when he/she says that there was something special about that time period. Yeah, it's great that you can quickly download any anime you want now but I miss getting those packages in the mail all the time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26498739.post-43659305296699753662010-07-28T12:06:26.090-07:002010-07-28T12:06:26.090-07:00In the Bronx (late 90s/early 2000), the stores me ...In the Bronx (late 90s/early 2000), the stores me and my friends went to only had "E. Monsoon" and "Anime Labs". That was it. At least for DBZ subs.<br /><br />I distinctly remember, "E. Monsoon" being more professionally doneālike only light cussing/better video quality etc.<br /><br />Surprised to here the opposite.Jack Christophernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26498739.post-64786347088039535512010-07-20T10:51:01.856-07:002010-07-20T10:51:01.856-07:00E Monsoon?
Oh man... I remember that fansub guy....E Monsoon? <br /><br />Oh man... I remember that fansub guy. He was known in just about EVERY fansub trading circle for being the worst fansubber ever. I think that even the Hong Kong subs of today are a notch above what he did. <br /><br />I remember that the only people who collected his subs were people who were either newbies, people collecting them to laugh at them, or because he was the only one who had them subbed at the time. <br /><br />But of course nowadays there are far higher standards for fansubs & most people won't know of him or have any of his fansubs. <br /><br />(sigh) Those were great times for fansubs. I love downloading my fansubs & not having to wait as long, but there's something to be said about getting all of those packages in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26498739.post-38824537369573934022010-07-03T09:31:43.068-07:002010-07-03T09:31:43.068-07:00Haha this reminds me of the VHS fansubs I bought o...Haha this reminds me of the VHS fansubs I bought of Dragon Ball Z from a con.
