Guilty Crown was... meh, had a good concept but felt badly excecuted. Maybe I should make an effort to complete it.

This is a Big Middle Finger to Manga Entertainment in the UK.

Seriously, first you have one sub style which is standard not the easiest to work with specially when converting VOB to .srt and .ass. Then you drop the subs for the lyrics at some point, and half way through the season you switch over to a different font. Let's not begin on the translation quality.

I have been struggling for 4 hours to get the timing right and it's still off.... Looks like I am going to have to do this old school and type set, time and compile my own subs.

It appears that phrase; 'Polishing a turd' stands with some anime DVD releases as well, CQ of 18-22 renders almost identical results. CFR from 500kbps to about 2000kbps (which is bordering a 720p BD) renders the same results. Maybe I should remember that the original source is about 7 years old so that could attribute to the okay-ish quality.

This does not mean I have forgiven you Manga UK, yet.
At least I find Manga UK's DVD sets slightly more affordable than, for example Aniplex USA.

And I tend to find translation issues with most of the DVDs I own - sometimes it's a case of the translators altering something to make a bit more sense in English, and other times it's just plain horribly wrong.
