Wondering where is this week's Naruto?

Guess what. Profits are down again, Pokemon ratings are dropping faster than iPhone sales, and since we were refused entry to Otakon, we need to get into 20 other less relevant anime cons, and most importantly - Naruto and Bleach keep showing up on Youtube and other crap video upload sites regularly, so here's the deal: Pokemon reaches 100k downloads per episode within 24 hours, or else Naruto is permanently dropped*.

You heard it here first.

*Note: Only the English, French, and Portuguese-Brazilian versions of Naruto will be dropped. We will still release the Hebrew sub.

Well... it doesn't actually say YHBT, but I still think YHB.

[lav2k4]

Good, I hope they stop subbing it.

They did this before, so who knows.

To the best of my knowledge, all they did before was the same as they have done now. Perhaps you're referring to this (http://yhbt.mine.nu/pr/26), which was nothing but a troll. They like having fun with people. If there's another incident that I don't know about... please enlighten me.

There's still another group anyway. Their subs blow, but it is better than nothing. The funny thing is that the latest Pokemon episode isn't far short of reaching that download target anyway, to judge from the posted tracker stats. I'm curious to know why they skipped episodes #7 and #8 though. I don't watch the show, but that seems odd.

Who cares, they the biggest douche bag subbers out there plus naruto has been going downhill anyways. Go ahead and stop subbing it, I don't like being threatened by some two bit fansub group. Fansubbing is about enjoyment and doing a service to people, and if your going to be a prick about it don't even bother.

for real DB needs to stfu. im not downloading pokemon so they can lick my choad.

[Soluzar]

You guys should realise that they love it when you start to foam at the mouth... this is exactly what they want to see. Do we even know for sure there was an episode aired this week? I'd bet they are just screwing with ya...

None of the "usual places" have a Shippuden #19 raw up yet... and someone on the AnimeSuki Naruto forum has stated that the anime is taking breaks now, to avoid the risk of going back to filler. Nothing huge. Just two weeks instead of one, sometimes.

[Cow]

....


There is no episode this week as I posted in the episode 18 thread, for the next 2 episodes they air biweekly.

[Soluzar]

Yep. To everyone except Cow and I who posted:

YHBT. YHL.

HAND.

[Lone Signal]

HAY GUYS AT LEAST THEY'LL STILL HAVE HEBREW VERSION.
I mean srsly...

[EV.]

come on guys don't believe every cancelation posted on DB.

Haha just as planned. Death note ftw!

[Jay Fanel]

Yah, they can do whatever they want. Their jokes are pretty lame. Even if they drop the series, someone else will pick it up. A part of me would like them to leave as they think far too highly of themselves to be pulling pranks like this more frequently each year.

[Nomnomnom]

Why is this crap in our forum? It's a joke or its true, either way we really don't care.

Maybe... but at the same time, ya gotta admit that the reaction of all the Narutards going emo every time DB delay an episode is pretty funny. In this case, they didn't even need to delay an episode. They just pretended to do so. Hell, I'm starting to think that next time this little brush fire sparks up, I won't bother dousing the flames quite so early, so that people have the chance to really start worrying.

Wait, so now people who get upset when episodes are delayed from DB are considered Narutards? Times ara' changing... changing indeed.

Why wouldn't they be? It's just an affectionate term for the more obsessive fans among us. Despite the root of the word, it's not intended to be offensive.

[Jay Fanel]

In any case, pretending that every few weeks is April Fool's gets old pretty quick.

[Talon]

The only time DB has ever so much as irked me is when they did that VT thing and then added a YHBT to their apology. I am a jerk too but that is just wrong.

I don't feel the need to like the people who sub anime for me... :naughty:

You got a point thar. ;)

[Jack_Bauer]

i dont know what YHBT and YHL mean... i feel like a total douche, someone tell me please. lol

ANCIENT usenet jargon. Don't feel bad for not knowing it, unless you used the internet about a decade ago.

The customary response when someone bit at the trollbait was to say:

YHBT. YHL.
HAND.

You Have Been Trolled. You Have Lost. Have A Nice Day.

The customary response when everyone had fallen for the bait, if it was an especially irritating or convincing troll was to simply make a minor change.

WHBT. WHL.

We Have Been Trolled. We Have Lost.

It's only Dattebayo's continued usage of such terms that keeps them alive in my memory, to be honest. Otherwise I would have forgotten long ago.

[Jack_Bauer]

ah, ok i get it now. thats why on the link itself, it has the yhbt.

Thanks, now I know.. and knowing is half the battle

[Soluzar]

ah, ok i get it now. thats why on the link itself, it has the yhbt.
The DB website has yhbt in the address. I guess by going there... you basically are being trolled. :P

Next time DB say they aren't gonna give y'all free Naruto until <words>... remember this.

OK. This helps. There are negative connotations to the word though. 'tard'.
