Well, the raws for this show suck. There really is no point to downloading them if you’re looking for better picture quality. Because of that, i’m not wasting my bandwidth grabbing them and i’d suggest everyone else do the same. So, this is the last post about Code Geass R2 until rips from the Blu-Ray are available (hopefully they actually are degrading the HD broadcast quality to get people to buy the Blu-Ray). As far as fansubs go, i’d suggest GG or Eclipse. You can get a screen shot comparison here:

Subtitles will be available at this site, so bookmark it if you plan on getting the raws still:

Well, no group that I trust has released a raw in a format that I trust, but there is a fansub out from the same group that posted that subtitles for the first episode. If a better raw comes out i’ll post. In all honesty though, the raw that was available for episode 1 wasn’t really that good either. I don’t know whats going on. Thats like two shows that I would have thought would have like amazing raws that only ended up with decent quality. Maybe i’m a conspiracy theorist, but I think some anime producers are purposely not providing the greatest video quality for really huge shows. They might be hoping that if the broadcast isn’t really what HD should look like, that will encourage people to grab the Blu-Ray or DVD when it comes. I can totally imagine them advertising the Blu-Ray as like, “improved” picture quality. Just my opinion though.

When you get to the subtitle site, you’ll have to right click and choose “Save Link As” or “Save Target As”. If you don’t, it will open the subtitles in your browser as if its a text file.

Hmmpf, i’m very disappointed in the quality of the Aniserv raw. Its a 1gb WMV, which is about 1/4 the size of a regular anime film in so I was expecting WMV blu-ray rip quality picture. This doesn’t look anywhere near as good as those do. Very upsetting. I’ve taken it off the site and apologize to any and all who downloaded it. I’m downloading the TV-Japan one now to see if it looks equal, better or worse than this one. Knowing TV-Japan, I highly doubt it will be worse. While i’m at it, i’ll likely download Eclipse’s fansub to see if there are any quality differences.

A group is actually releasing pure softsubs for this. No need to double download. In the future i’ll direct link to the file, but for this one I want everyone to check their site out and give them some hits:
Softsubs @ www.ggkthx.org. Goto the rightmost column and under the “stuff” section click on “r2 scripts”.
I just watched the episode and noticed that the subs have timed karaoke. Usually subs don’t even include the lyrics so I was very surprised (although I dislike the opening song).
