Japanese historical drama

by touga_kiryuukun

Hiya!

Touga desu. Newbie desu. No japanese speaking desu. ^^;;

Anyways. I found a site that sells japanese historical drama with
english subs. I haven't ordered anything from them yet (*is too broke
at the moment*), but some looks really interesting, like the
shinsengumi keppuroku.

Welcome,
We have alot of stuff going on...so you may want to amuse yourself and
read the hundreds of posts here :p
yes samuraiflix.com is well known...however the films are bootlegs
-AND- they want to make tons of money off of them so keep that in
mind....I mean there is no other way to acquire these works but the
cost is just astronomical that's all...

The series is discussed at http://www.shinsengumimb.com

It is a very cool series by the way...very detailed and good pace

Samuraiflix.com is Merlin's site. He is one of the
few people that is subtitling some of these types of
movies. In that particular version of "Shinsengumi
Keppuroku" he just just got it from the Kiku tv Hawaii
broadcast. I have the series on vcd from that
broadcast if you don't mind vcd quality.
However, he is the one to support if you want to see
more subtitled movies. The guys on e-bay that mass
produce his subitled movies should be avoided like the
plague since they will be the ones that kill off the
fansubs.

touga_kiryuukun,
If you are too broke for samuraiflix.com (I bought one movie a long
time ago and the packing, shipping and item good) right now consider
the following:

1) go to Amazon search for Criterion Dvd, or any VHS copy releases of
the titles you want and do this special function thingy where you
input the price you can afford and Amazon will notify you if a seller
will meet your price...then you can snap up a copy right away

2) search for a college university nearby and see if they have a film
archive...usually they'll let you view stuff (and you don't always
have to be a student)

3) search for people who will trade with you...I know a trustworthy
worthy person email me offlist...but a trade is a trade you don't get
your movie back and there is no money involved
