For some subtitlers, it's required that you contact them first. Other subtitlers have their address listed, so an initial contact isn't completely necessary, but still recommended. Your tapes are more likely to get done quicker and be taken better care of if the person remembers your name. 2) Follow the rules (if any) that the subtitler/distributor has set in order to get copies. Any breaking of the rules will decrease the speed in which copies are made, and possibly offend the dubber and subtitler. 3) If there are no rules given, follow these basics: a) Maximum of 2 tapes at a time (unless permission has been given to the contrary). b) Do not send cheap quality tapes. The tape brands Sony, Maxell, TDK, and Fuji are your safest bet. c) Right down EXACTLY what you want on a post-it note or its equivalent on each tape. (EXACTLY= What anime, what episodes, what speed, etc) d) Make sure you mark each tape with your name, address, phone number, and email address. e) Put your tapes and a self-addressed stamped padded envelope (make sure the postage is correct) inside of another padded envelope and mail it. f) BE PATIENT! These people have put many hours of their time into creating wonderful subtitles for you to enjoy and making copies of them for free. Please show courtesy in waiting for your tapes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- Arctic Animation ---------------- Effective immediately, Arctic Animation will not accept any new orders from March 10th to October 1st, 1996. The rapid growth and the extreme number of requests that we have received has caused a decline in communications and customer service. Thus, we are not accepting any new orders until after Anime Expo and the San Diego Comic Convention. This will give us time to catch up with the orders received so far. It will also give us a period of time where we can update the fan sub list and remove pending commerical titles like Patlabor, Maison Ikkoku, Sailor Moon, and Dan Cougar. This blanket period will also give me time to re-vamp the tape dubbing policy sheet to remove ambiguity and streamline the options. Anyone who has orders in the queue will still be processed, status reports will still be posted on the web pages for your convience. Contact numbers and email addresses are still the same. We are not closing up. We are restructuring again to find a better way to deal with all the requests that we get. The new list in October promises to have many new titles including Slam Dunk, Nurse Angel Ririka, Saint Tail and more City Hunter and Gundam. Please join the Arctic mailing list if you want to receive the weekly updates being posted to the new list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- Dark Ops -------- * Please e-mail your distributor for permission to send the tapes for dubs everytime. Anime will be available in the following format, unless otherwise specified. NTSC: SVHS & VHS & Video 8mm Video 8mm not available for International Requests. If you are looking for PAL versions instead of NTSC versions you must contact our European Distributor. In case you are wondering, there's no SVHS version of PAL. Due to incompatibility and that sort of thing. For suggestions or donations or offer of help of any sort ^_^; (God knows we need help....) e-mail the following address: changr1@watmail.ucr.edu If there's any particular anime you think we should subtitle, please feel free to make suggestions. Dark Ops. now has a web page.

If you do, you will be marked down and remembered, ;). So, when you get a copy of this, keep it, don't lose it or you better hope you have Web page access. Please follow these rules. If you do not, one of the following two things are sure to happen. a) They will be sent back, uncopied. b) They will be lost and we won't know what happened to them. 1) In order to get dubs from us, you must first contact this e-mail address: "changr1@watmail.ucr.edu" stating "what" and who you are, for permission and requesting information regarding the distributors. However, Dark Ops. reserve the right to reject your request at anytime. If you are not some kind of back stabbing pirating bastard, then you have nothing to worry about. Then I will supply you with the information regarding the distributors and you can contact them for permissions to send tapes for dubs and where to send them and so forth, ONLY one at a time mind you. There's no membership requirement. 2) Please SEND ONLY TWO tapes at a time for dub. If you send more, I will keep them and use them as a target for my kendo practice, ;). 3) Send ONLY the unopened HIGH QUALITY BRAND NEW tapes. ONLY the following High Quality tapes are acceptable. This is to insure that the copy you get will be of good quality and you will be satisfied with the copy. If you send any other brand or any other grade of tapes, I will be using them as target practice so don't expect to get them back in one piece. *For Video 8mm: Sony HG Maxell HG grade *For SVHS: 3M Black Watch TDK Fuji Maxell *For VHS: 3M Black Watch Series - 2000 or higher Fuji A/V Master Fuji A/V Pro TDK HD-X Pro TDK Hi-Fi Maxell Hi-Fi JVC Hi-Fi Scotch Professional Archive Grade-these come in clam shells 4) EACH tape should have a post-it note or a piece of paper stuck on it to make sure its designation. Such a note needs to be typed or nicely written, no ugly unlegible hand writing please, with the following information on them. A) Name B) Address C) E-maill address D) Title of the Anime you are requesting 5) Please send the tapes in a US Postal Service Plastic-Air-Bubble Mailing Bags or equivalent. Send them with the shipping postages paid in full. Include another Mailing Bag with the postage fully paid to be used to return your tapes. Write your full address on the both mailing bags. The reasons for these are that, first of all, I don't have money to spare. Second, I don't keep track of where you live. * Alternative. Buy one Plastic-Air-Bubble Mailing Bags or equivalent and get US PS Priority mailing envelope. Put the mailing bag with tapes in them into the Priority mailing envelope and include another Priority mailing envelope with postages. This way, you only have to buy one Bubble bag and you don't pay for another packaging cost ever. If you live outside of US, it is possible to get dubs from us. You will be given the information when you obtain permission. 6) No mix and matching, please. 7) Dubs will be done in SP mode. No exceptions. 8) E-mail your distributors before sending tapes for dub, EVERYTIME. 9) Send another package for dub when you receive your previous requests back. However, send only one package per month, maximum. 10) For information about your tape copying status, e-mail the distributor. Any questions toward the policy of the rule, e-mail changr1@watmail.ucr.edu. Follow these rules, or you will be penalized. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- Nexus Studios ------------- Nexus Studios Email: nexus@soyokaze.biosci.ohio-state.edu WWW: http://soyokaze.biosci.ohio-state.edu/~nexus {VHS and SVHS copies are available} Membership spots open for qualifying anime clubs.
