Alrighty guys and gals. There has been a lot of debate about this and i'm just wondering which group you're going with. In terms of accurate translations not release time. I don't care if it takes a group a couple more days to release it, as long as it's accurate. Besides I usually don't watch it until the weekend because of school.

Mazui, Commie or gg

which one?

I'd put them in this order:

gg
Mazui
Commie

In the order of best to worst accuracy. gg has 8thsin as a translator and checker, so theirs is always top notch. Mazui is a great group, but their checking isn't as dedicated as gg's, and that puts them in 2nd. Commie is the fastest, but least accurate. They focus on speed rather than accuracy, and take way too many liberties with their translations - often injecting unrelated "internet speak" terms for no reason. I use them for some series, but not for Hyouka.

BTW - Love the Ryuuji avatar. <3

Script + Typesetting for episode 1 - gg > Mazui
Script for episode 2 - Mazui > gg ; Typesetting for episode 2 - gg > Mazui
Script + Typesetting for episode 3 - Mazui > gg

Mazui was bad at first but impressively improved latter. I'll go with Mazui for this show.

It's difficult to tell whether a translation is accurate if you do not speak Japanese, and inaccurate translations can cause continuity breaks which can adversely affect the experience. Don't be dismissive.
