It's taking quite a while for [Sudo] or [Syndicate] to release another sub, I don't feel like rolling the dice on another Anonymous one after the last one I saw which was missing entire sentences....

Hmmm, i'm really impressed with the quality of anonymous's releases. Really good picture quality on their releases.

As for missing whole senteces, i'm not too sure what you mean. I think you're gettin put off by the fact that they don't necessarily display subtitles when a character is talking. Rather, they'll wait for the second sentece that is spoken by the character and then display a much longer subtitle for a longer period of time containing what was said previously and what is currently being said (did that make sense?).

It seems like they're not subbing some of the senteces that are being spoken, but i can assure they are. This technique they employ is mildly offputting, but i can definitely put up with it, especially considering the picture quality of their releases.

Actually, there was one episode where the anonymous subbers did not sub a lot of sentences. I think it was episode 13. But it was only that episode, the others were alright Surprised

Oh okay.

That would explain it, as i've only just started getting anonymous's subs.

In fact, i might be getting mixed up with anonymous's releases and that other subber who released claymore last week. Unless they both used that weird subtitle timing.

Yea, I remember the first anonymous sub I watched was missing a lot from it because when I dled either the Sudo or Syndicate version (forgot which) the storyline was different from what I had already seen in the anonymous one. I guess I shouldn't complain though, it's like I got to see a whole other episode!

Since this has been licensed nice to see both Sudo or Syndicate subbing them.

However, the anon group stuff has been lacking so much. Kudos to them for trying. I appreciate the effort. Really reccomend either waiting for a quality sub or the official release.

Argh! DtB is becoming really intriguing.

Lots of mysteries shoudl be revealed in the coming episodes.

Waiting for more episodes is excruciating.

Hmmm, this anime didn't end very well.

Lots of things left unexplained, and it didn't have a satisfying ending.

Seriously, this anime was complicated and intriguing, and i always eagerly awaited the next episode in order to recieve some new info, yet the anime just ended with barely explaining anything.

I heard that the director ran away with the script near ending arc which probably cause some panics there.

Umm .. ep 26 .. what the hell was that about? It definitely didn't look like a continuation from ep 25 ... maybe it's an OVA ep?

Yea .. darker than black really needed one more ep to explain everything. bad ending for a good series

Frankly, I'd love to see a second season. I think episode 26 could have been some sort of DVD special or something. It was obvious that it was written after everything else had wrapped up thus the need for a reset switch like that.
