New Anime - Tentai Senshi Sunred (Comedy)

Posted: Sat Oct 18, 2008 4:11 am

I am in Tokyo right now, anyways, maybe that gives me a little bit of a jump on whats on TV -if you haven't checked it out, make sure to watch Tentai Senshi Sunred.

It is hilarious -there are currently three episodes, unfortunately not fansubbed. But with beginner level Japanese you should be able to pick up most of the conversations.

I'm in it for the little things... like the fact that Sunred is trying to sell his motorcycle in the opening credits, and the price keeps going down each episode.

No one is working on the manga right now... i've downloaded the raws for the first volume but my Japanese isn't quite at the level that I can translate it yet.

It's comedy + without furigana (at least I assume so since it runs in Young Gangan), so yeah not exactly the easiest translation for amateurs like ourselves.

But do hook me up with the raws if you'd please.

It's not that horribly complicated, the main difficulty seems to lie in actually making the translation funny. (I know I'd suck at it, anyway.)

Yeah... only Stephen Paul would be capable of doing Sun Red any justice, so its best we don't touch it.

We learned our lesson from Katteni Kaizo. And the lesson was re-learned with Sexy Commando.
