Fansubbing Websites

A few friends of mine have noticed that I have been addicted to Asian Dramas particularly Taiwanese and Japanese Idol Dramas. Recently, TV stations such as ABS-CBN and GMA 7 have been showing these programs in their respective channels and is dubbed in Tagalog. Their subbing has been improved somewhat though I still have a problem that the voices do not fit the actors playing the role and there are a lot of the times that the translations are wrong and the dubbing isn't perfect. What really annoys me in these TV stations are the fact that the only show about 15 minutes of the real episode and the commercials are really longer than the actual program itself.

So, to satisfy my Asian drama cravings I have no choice but to resort to buying pirated DVD in stalls that sells them of look for the site of the fan subbing team who subs the shows that I want to watch. I know a few of them, but there are 3 fan subbing sites that I go to the most.

This is the Fansubbing site that I love to go to the most. I love their choices of dramas to sub and their translations are really good. They have small explanations for some of the terms that are used in the shows that they sub. Their website is easy to go to and the way they organize their projects are done well that you wouldn't get lost while browsing through them. And even with the pictures, their site loads easily.

Downloading them is also easy. You have a choice between torrent or megaupload. And their format is in AVI so it's compatible with our DVD player that all I need to do is copy into a CD-R or DVD-R. The quality of the video is really good and the subbing is easy to read.

Although, I understand the reason why they aren't that fast in finishing a project or episode, it leaves the people who patiently waits for updates of their favorite dramas craving. For each episode that they have, they tell you at what stage they are in the subbing and how much they are done in percentage. But the quality of their work is really well done that I don't mind the long wait.

This is another fansub website that I go to often. Though, I only have a couple of series that I would like to download and watch.

Like Doremii, their translations is well done and they have those small explanations for stuff that needs to be explained. But their website is a bit slow to load and the font is small and the color is not really clear. You can load the series by torrent, megaupload or mediafire. But unlike Doremii, you also have option to upload the raw file of the series that you like to watch (personally, I do not see the point in doing this but I guess this is for those people who speaks the language of the drama being subbed).

Like most subbing teams that prefers quality over quantity, they don't hurry to finish a project, making a lot of people wait patiently for them to finish and episode or a drama series.

I only got one series from here and the translation and timing is spot on.

The website is a little confusing. I do have trouble finding what I am looking for there but once I do, it easy to look through it. The site is fast to load and you can see the progress of their subbing by how many percent the particular episode is done.

You can upload their series via torrent, mediafire or megaupload.
