Dattebayo Fansubs Is Dropping Naruto Shippuden


As usual, I went to my trustworthy Dattebayo website on a weekly basis to find out whether the latest episode of Naruto Shippuden is available...then I came across this bit of news...Dattebayo is to stop fan-subbing Naruto on 15th January 2009.

Mixed emotions really, angry, frustrated, sad, all rolled into one. Why would you do that to us? Wasn't Naruto what made your presence known in the internet fan-subbing community? Although Dattebayo also offers other fan-subs such as Bleach, come on, of all the ones you can drop, you drop something which the fans still want to watch?

Yes, I know the filler episodes can be a drag at times, but thats just the nature of translating an ongoing manga to anime. The Naruto Shippuden manga is currently at chapter 424, with the author on hiatus now so that he can work on upcoming chapters. I don't want to give any spoilers, but at the end of 424, Kakashi is meeting his fate with death.


Naruto Shippuden has a lot to offer still in the anime. Perhaps the staff at Dattebayo should take some time to find out what is going to happen in Naruto Shippuden and perhaps, like me, will like to find out how well the future chapters of the manga is to be translated to anime and also see how the movements, actions and story depicted in the manga is moved onto the small screen.

Please Dattebayo, please re-consider about dropping Naruto. Give the fans a chance to see, on the screen, of whats to come on Naruto Shippuden, with your skills of sub-titling and timing, its these qualities of yours which adds to the quality of the anime too making it worthwhile for me and others to visit your site on a regular basis to find out what news in the world of Naruto and also what new projects you have coming up for your team.

Lunch with Grandma Ng - Japanese Style

For lunch, after praying at Grandpa's resting place, we set off to a local Japanese restuarant which Grandma likes very much. I went for the roasted eel in teriyaki sauce with rice. It was really really nice, and could have had another two bowls. Grandma's favourite dish was the barbecued squid. We also have pan-fried dumplings, beef rice-don, and my Aunt ordered her favourite sushi rolls. Really enjoyed that meal! More photos here .

Its been a while!

Hey all, sorry, had been away for so long.  Sometimes have so many things going on and so many thoughts, not sure what to write. Life update is that we've moved out of the in-laws place, and renting an apartment in the city.  It's not brand new. No lifts, and we live on the top floor, but it's my home now. Just recently been in hospital for stomach ulcers causing internal bleeding.  Nightmare, when you wasn't allowed to eat or drink for 4 days.  But I'm back home now, but only this morning, I discovered I now have a gout attack.  FML. Anyway, life continues to surprise or annoy me in new and fascinating ways. Mimi is still with us by the way, always staying loyal and guarding. Until next time.

Homeward Bound

Hello again, thought I'd give an update of what's going on in my mundane life. After chatting with my wife, We will be moving back to my parents's home in Manchester (well Ashon-under-Lyne to be precise). We feel it would be better for her to have people around like our friends and family should anything happen. Plus I get to hang out with my friends again! As with my work, I will still be working at my current job in London. The plan is that I will be travelling to London to work in the office for three days (Tuesday to Thrusday) and work from home in Manchester for the other two days. I felt it was a good compromise, and I'll get something back for the travel and accommodation costs (some but not all), plus I'll will be stilling working and earning the dough. Now we're in the middle of putting stuff in boxes ready for the big move in mid-June. Dug out a lot of stuff that we don't need, so we'll be holding a car boot sale to make some ca...
