AT-X advance broadcast of Episodes 1-3.
https://twitter.com/ATX_PR/status/1708059863513960933

This is female mangaka Shizuki Fujisawa's first anime adapted series, though she has other more recognizable Shoujo manga series like 2014's Hatsu*Haru, which I low-key love.

The coming-of-age story of the Yuzuki Family: 4 brothers who lost their parents, they have to live by each other: the oldest of Hayato, the second son of Mikoto, the youngest of Gakuto and the third son of Minato. Together with their next-door opposite neighbour of siblings Uta and Waka, all 4 brothers attend the same school with Mikoto and Minato being in the same grade (though born 11 months apart), and Hayato being the teacher-cum-parent figure.

Clearly, both Minato and Mikoto are close to each other, and wanting to participate in the usual fireworks festival, the two of them went ahead without them, leaving brothers Hayato and Mikoto to go find them, which after all of the craze, they manage to find Gakuto, and the 4 brothers are able to enjoy the fireworks together.

From meals to daily life surrounding them, this is a rather nice feeling of just slowing down and soaking in the feelings,
But Crunchyroll, fix your AI subs or whatever, it doesn't make sense and is shit.

Is it only in Japanese no subtitle?

Kinda awkward, but it's fun to watch. The OP song is so good, the visual OP is fun and colorful. But well shuka is always be shuka, I don't like the ED visual

Sony spent all that money on Crunchyroll and is spending tons of money to license the majority of show every season, and this embarrassing attempt at subtitles is what they put out for this show? Did they get someone to use Google translate?

@HOOfan_1 Haven't seen subs this bad in quite awhile. They might as well have released it raw given how bad the subs are.

They almost certainly used an AI or translation app for these subtitles. These kind of mistakes would simply not be made by a human translator. It feels like this show was added last minute, so I'm inclined to believe that Crunchyroll translators are overworked and someone made the decision to just throw the episode through Google translate. Even if that is the case, this level of translation is abysmal. They should have just taken more time and released it later if they weren't ready. As for the actual show however, I loved it. It seems like a bittersweet sol family story. Hopefully the translations can do better by it in the future.

I'm glad it wasn't only me, these subtitles are terrible.

But damn, what a shame! It's an award-winning manga, and it's the same studio as Natsume Yuujinchou. The manga was so cute.

Edit: they really screwed up the subtitles.

Like when Minato says "he is not my brother" in the subtitles. It should be "he is not my OLDER brother." Because they're the same age (only separated by 11 months), but Mikoto seems more responsible. So Minato is jealous.

At one point, Gaku refers to Hayato as "Brother Falcon".

Minato shouts out "Gaku!", but the subtitles read "Gakuto!".

At one point, the subtitles repeat themselves for some reason.

"Sir Yuzuki, sir"

"What you are doing is a carcinogen."

"Sir Yuzuki is obviously only 23 years. But he has sadness of a father who is in 40s."

"When I was saving my New Year's money. On post mail shaped money box from the post office." (Translation: Gakuto has a piggy bank shaped like a mailbox. He recieved it at the post office when he deposited his New Year's money.)

"Are your foot hurts" (this one is extra confusing because Minato hurt his knee, not his foot)

Who translated this lmao?

The botched Crunchyroll subtitles are a shame and shouldn't have happened. Very disappointing. The show and manga deserve a lot better.
Nevertheless, it was a really cute first episode. Finally something new from Shuka. Looking forward to watching it every week. :)

This is why crunchyroll needs more competition. These subtitles are a disgrace. Luckily I was able to understand most things with my JP knowledge, but this is truly embarrassing.

As for the show itself. “Life without parents is hard, but there’s nothing we can do. There’s no resurrection” 😢 really a beautiful story of family pulling together after unimaginable loss. I mean losing both parents is just devastating. This reminds me of Otonari ni Ginga’s set up with an older brother trying to provide for his siblings. I can’t imagine how difficult that is on one teacher’s salary at 23..

At least the parents left them a massive house so that bit is sorted.

Really nice introductory episode that gave us some insight into all the boys. Lot of different personalities in this one. I’m all for a nice family oriented slice of life, particularly with all young men trying to make it through life in such difficult circumstances.

“Mom, dad, even though we fight, our relationship is still strong. Please watch over us in heaven 😢” that fireworks ending scene was beautiful! I think this’ll be another contender for hidden gem of the season along with 16bit and Dali to Magli.

I can’t finish the episode let alone rate this until there’s a fansub or fresh hiring of translators at Crunchy.
I can understand a decent amount of Japanese but I still lean on subs cause it feels more like you’re [watching a manga] you know? BUT WTF HOLYYYY these were so horrific that I had to shut the episode off.

Over the last year, Crunchy subs have slowly declined in terms of grammar and accuracy, though they were still obv better than Netflix’s “im gonna totally rewrite this scene via subs” translators and HIDIVE’s shtty font/size/lack of drop shadow/placement.
But this…? Someone who learned English using Duolingo could’ve done a better job. First-time webtoon scanlators using an app to translate would’ve done a better job.

I’m almost afraid to watch the rest of this week’s shows on Crunchy, and idk if I’ll ever be able to watch this. Massive L

Damn it bad subs nooooooooooooooo. It's bad when I think I could even translate better from my little Japanese knowledge. I hope it gets better subs because it can really ruin the impact of scenes when I'm trying to parse what the characters actually said.

Aside from that, I like this so far. Simple and cute art style. I like the brothers dynamic. It's funny how in these series the youngest one seems the most mature.

@Halo_s_Maze It is getting a decent amount of buzz online so hopefully CR fixes it. It makes me wonder how many times something like this has gone unnoticed though. Bad subs are one thing but these are an embarrassment.

@Pikagreg Thanks for the context.

Well, I'll have to hope it's growing popularity forces crunchy roll to do something about the subtitles. I'll wait 2 or 3 weeks and then check back in to see how things are progressing.

If they keep up this subtitle quality throughout it’s airing, they are going to lose a ton of people just off of that alone. It was too distracting and hard to watch honestly, but I did enjoy the content itself. Hopefully they fix this by next week.

Nice start. I was expecting a comedy about 4 brothers. This gives me a feeling similar to Gakuen Babysitters mixed with 3-gatsu.

I feel bad about this one, in a less stacked anime Season I probably would have given this a few more episodes if not watched the whole thing but there's just way too many other shows on my list this season, I've had to leave this one.

I swapped to german subtitles after 3 minutes. So gladly, I could actually enjoy the show. And I'm kinda happy about the drama because this is perhaps the best way for this show to gain popularity. "Came for the Subs, stayed for the show", perhaps?

About the actual content: I really liked it. It's not really Iyashikei like Cool Doji Danshi due to the harsh reality of the parents' deaths and Hayato being overworked. But it does have a really positive atmosphere and the way the kids are portrayed is heartwarming. It was also pretty funny at times.

The character dynamic should also provide a good amount of enjoyable Slice of Life content. I'm looking forward to what they come up with!

Hmm, based on some dialogues I've read of the Eng subs some guy just made a literal translation for the Spanish subs. Well, at least you can understand everything that happend based on the context, but if this keeps happening in next episodes guess I'll read the manga someday.
Anyway, I had a good impression on this anime.

Crunchyroll must be filled with a bunch of disgusting pancake lovers to create subs this bad. Got to admit though it was really funny to watch but I hope this gets resolved soon because I don't think this is suppose to be a comedy.
