• The above picture raises a point about Schneizel’s outfit: Is the purple thing under sleeveless or not? We’ve never seen him w/o the overcoat, huh. Also, living in Arizona sucks. I used this picture because I’ve been eating ice cream lately for a cold snack.
• The Geass.jp website has a summary for Turn 22 which includes the phrase, “a new story is being sung” or something similar, which is really comforting to hear for episode 22 in a 25 episode series. If it was “new chapter” I probably wouldn’t be saying anything but uhm!
• There’s a new poll on BIGLOBE for your favorite R2 episode. The fields on the bottom = Comment, Gender (M / F) and Age. I’m tempted to vote for R2 19 and put “Schneizel is a fucking magician” in the comment box.
• The Geass.jp website also lists a new event called Cafe Geass which will take place at the mai:lish maid cafe in Akiba. They’re making a drink and food menu of some sort to reflect the characters images and will have various Geass merchandise on display. Maybe it’s due to subbing Antique Bakery, but I really want pics of the food they make for it…
• The Sound Episode 4 cover and details have been announced. It features Lelouch and a fabulous rainbow of fast food, and Kallen doing some semi-Guren cosplay.
• Yesterday I went to my anime club to try to make them watch Geass R2. It was rejected because they’re strict about watching series as a club. When I suggested this, people yelled out, “Just do what she said, Geass is awesome” and the Club President said something like, “Wat no Geass was okay until like ep 22 of the first season”. Interesting, seeing as how most think that srsbsns shit went down in 22-25 that made Geass awesum in the first place.
  • They ended up watching Kara no Kyoukai 3 without watching 1 or 2 (though this is likely because we explained that it’s told out of order anyway). It’s extremely weird watching stuff you sub on the projector at school… and in Windows Media Player. D: I avoided telling them I’m from the fansub group so they don’t ask me where the fuck movie 4 is.
  • Dio/Yujiro from IRC and ADTRW went to his anime club too yesterday because they advertised themselves using a Spinzaku wearing a top hat and cane poster. I have yet to hear anything from him about how that went though.
• S1 19 of the dub is supposed to be on AdultSwim today, which will introduce Schneizel’s dub voice actor. I suspect it’ll be up by the time I get home from class so if they did a separate clip with him in it I’ll throw it up. (Also since I’m lazy I think I’ll make the next poll about Dubeizel)
• Canned Dogs posted about Geass’s BIGLOBE’s online stream viewing numbers from an MSN article. I asked Tamaki’s Girlfriend to check out the BIGLOBE webpage before to see if there were any view counters that the public could see, and she gave us a screenshot that didn’t indicate there was a view counter. The numbers are, assuming Bandai Visual isn’t lying out of their asses, mostly positive (420k+ views on R2 01). Why no public view counter on the stream anyway?
• Oh, speaking of the dub, Bandai Ent. has begun shipping replacement disks for the defectives.

Missing S1 Sound Episodes

Edit: The missing sound eps have been translated. You can download them here. Many thanks to Soljashy for doing them.

Tamaki’s Girlfriend translated all of the Geass S1 sound episodes then took them down when she found out that Bandai was bringing them out in the USA commercially. 15 of the 18 translations have since been passed around the internets. The ones missing are for 5.831, 0.916, and 21.534. I saved the transcripts for 5.831 and 21.534 from 2ch. Maybe a kind anon would/will translate them? gg is kinda busy (tonight is Geass night then there’s the cool down and sanity check period from the speedsub rush). D:

0.916 (The Black King) is from when Lelouch meets Rivalz! Rivalz is playing chess and getting his ass kicked, then Lelouch is like “lol nub i take over dis game 4 u”. They haven’t met before, but Lelouch has SUPER MEMORY SKILLS and knows who Rivalz is because he memorized the entire Ashford student roster. Lelouch takes over the chess game for him against the Generic Snooty Noble. Lelouch gives Rivalz a note to open after the game. He uses his move the King magic and wins. Rivalz opens up the note and finds that Lelouch had written down the moves for the rest of the game. PSYCHIC POWERS! On his way out, Rivalz offers to give him a lift on his bike, but Lelouch think he would look unfabulous and 100% faggot if he was riding on another guys back. And thus, Rivalz got his sidecar. The end!

Anyway, transcripts for the missing ones after the break.
