Darker than Black 2 – 04

Thanks to one of our commentors for pointing out that the varying agencies still believe that Suou is Shion. Notes have been updated to include this.

Here are some words from the translator.

Torrent: HD
XDCC: 141@INB4RAEP @ BSS IRC Channel
Scripts: DtB S2 Ep4 Script

  1. As a show progresses, you begin to learn more stuff and realize more facts (and translation errors). And so with DtB2, I’ve been going back and updating the .ass for the past eps.
  2. Changes that were made include:
  3. Pecha -> Petya
  4. Mentions of Suou as a girl by the other agencies when in fact they still believe that she is Shion. In particular, in episode 2 when Shizume first meets Suou and calls her a cutie. However, in episode 3, you hear Shizume calling her a “prince.” As of the end of episode 3 however, I do believe all the agencies realize that she is in fact not Shion.
  5. In episode 3, when Kobayashi mentions that laws were passed to allow them to destroy the Syndicate, it was actually supposed to say: “And for that purpose, we have been permitted to take the law into our own hands.”
  6. That’s all for the fixes I believe, and they have been uploaded to our script repository. I will continue updating these scripts as the show progresses, so check back once in a while to see if anything is different. We won’t be releasing any patches for these, however, so you’ll have to make due with muxing it yourselves. Only our final batch release will have all these fixes applied. I might make a tutorial on how to use MKVTOOLNIX though so you won’t have to download the batch.
  7. ———————————————-
  8. Now, to clear up some confusion in episode 3. When Mao asks where Yin is, Hei replies with “Yin… I… I will kill ‘her.’”. It’s hard to translate the first line when Hei doesn’t use any verbs. Some ideas as to what he might have meant may be:
  9. “I left Yin to die.”
  10. or
  11. “I abandoned Yin.”
  12. Something along those lines, though I can’t be sure of course. But this means that the person he means to kill doesn’t exactly mean that it’s Yin, but most likely the person who caused Yin to “die”, be taken away from Hei or cause whatever happened to her. The best answer to this though is to wait and continue watching DtB as the story unfolds, which I’m sure you all will.
  13. One last fact for you guys though. Almost all the lines that Mr. Smith says come straight from Sun Tzu’s “The Art of War.” The only one that doesn’t is “With three advantages, there will be three disadvantages,” which apparently comes from a Korean poem or song. I googled and read through “The Art of War” furiously to look for the exact passages, so I thought I’d just share this with you all. I expect I’ll have to do it again though when Mr. Smith shows up.

    You can convert mkvs for the psp with PSPVC. BSS’ font is big enough with the internal ass renderer, but you can also configure ffdshow to handle the subtitles and increase the size to say 150%.

    I think that from the beginning the translator needed to understand that everyone is thinking that Suou is Shion. That is a cumulative error.

    Whoops, scratch that, I just rechecked and the line it the same.

    Shadow says:

    You may want to dl the RC2 subtitles, they changed that line to, “The little cutie that BK-201 is dragging around.”

    blabla says:

    you said that at the end of episode 3 everyone realizes that she’s not Shion, then why at episode 4 Shizume calls her “the professor’s son – the one who BK201 IS DRAGGING AROUND”??
    i think you’re wrong. I think he still believes that Sohou is Shion. It just a bit weird because if that’s true then Shizume is a boys pedophille.

    Thanks for the release! But, whatever happened to the SD version of the episodes? I’m running out of space, and the .mkv files take up twice as much space. Not that I’m complaining, just wondering what happened to them.

    Uh oh at this rate Hei will have a cirrhotic liver by the end of the dozen or so eps.

    Kirihara x himecut onna? Oh yeah! ;)

    You guys are one of the best subbers out there. Most others are lazy and sarcastic, while you all keep to your passion. Keep up the work & thanks for DtB4!
