[subbed] Himitsu no Arashi-chan #120 (2011.02.24) Marionette – Best Kiss cut

‘sup, lovelies! I present to you my second subbing project – a collaboration with my partner-in-crime-in-everything-shophail-and-awesomeness, KittyFiqa. 8Dv

Fun-but-probably-unimportant-and-useless fact — this Marionette segment is what kickstarted our venture into subbing, one fine day when we were watching the raw episode together and Kitty translated it for me (more like I demanded it, because seriously, Sho’s Marionette was giving me an explosive fangasm). One thing led to another, we took this project in seriously and worked our pedantic OCD-ridden asses off for two months to make it perfect. So yes, this is our first major solo subbing project, a.k.a. our precious firstborn baby, and we’re practically hyperventilating from the excitement to share our baby with the world!

A few notes regarding this video:

1. The audio is slightly softer than normal – perhaps around 80%. It’s no biggie but I thought I should mention this.
2. The subtitle font-size is still the same as it is in the VSA Tom/Cameron cut, since this episode was completed around the same time. But, fear not! I’ve provided a HQ version this time around, so if you find the subs in MQ too small, feel free to go for HQ instead. If you’d like, you can view this lovely Sho-focused screencap from both the MQ version and the HQ version for comparison. And, I’ll be sure to increase the font size in future subbing projects!
3. I apologise for the larger-than-usual file size – I don’t know if this is related, but I added a Sharpen effect to the video quality during rendering in Sony Vegas. It could be related to the encoding settings, too (I did notice the audio data size was larger than it usually was). I’ll definitely look into this problem. If you’ve got any tips, it’d be greatly helpful! :D

With that said, ONWARDS TO THE NECESSARY SCREENCAPS.

Because the Marionette theme (‘Best Kiss’) sounds totally like Matsujun’s thang:

…and because I’m evidently Sho-biased (repeat: EXPLOSIVE FANGASM):

…and because this is the weirdest, most mind-boggling one-liner ever…

…so you gotta trust Nino to explain it:

And, last but not least, here’s a huge CONGRATS to Matsushima on her pregnancy, and wishing Nakajima all the best in her recovery. HnA wouldn’t be the same without Othello – wish they’ll be back soon. ):
