You are probably looking at the title and thinking “why did they skip epsisode 10 and 12?” Well, we didn’t. It’s just that our new translator, Ryel, started with episode 14, and she finished it before I could finish episode 10. It looks like I should pick up my pace, or get stripped from the title “Head Tranlator.” But for the fans, I’m sure this piece of news is wonderful, because this means that the episode translations will be super fast!
Someone asked me what would happen if we finished episode 8 before episode 10. The current thought I have right now is to wait for a bit, and if sweet secret subs shows no sign of releasing it, we might release it before hand. But I need to discuss this matter with the team, so this is just a thought, and not the final decision.
I dont think it would hurt if you released what you’ve got finished. I didn’t see anywhere that it’s wrong or unfair to do so lol. Some people might be annoyed if things are out of order but I for one don’t mind at all. If I were a fansubber I would be excited to get my finished piece out there and would have a hard time waiting. ^_^
Anyways whatever you decide, I’ll be eagerly anticipating whatever comes out. You guys are heroic and I want to thank you so much for your time and effort. 😀
THANK YOU!
I’m glad you guys are making such good progress with the show!
Now if only ss could get 7 out..
You guys are the best! Serious, thank you for subbing this amazing anime.
And the news makes me really happy.
Awwh… it’s a good day for me.
happy~ happy~ happy~ … lala! *sing*
^^ thanks so much, FLC~~
Hehe I hope we get to see ep. 8 soon [after 7, of course]!!
dude, can u take over odd episode from sweetsecret. Seem like all staff is quitting. If u need a help for timing let me know.
why is sss slow in releasing episodes..? um anyways hi i’m a new fan of SM season2 um i’m really glad that you guys are fast… can’t w8 for more episodes to come out.. i just want to confirm how many episodes does season2 have?
lolXD Glad to know where you guys are^.^~~~
Keep up teh great work!!!
if only SS would release 7~ So much painXD
thanks for all the subbed eps so far. but do you think that you can continue subbing the entire 2nd season of saiunkoku? because SS is taking a really really really long time for that one ep (ep 7)… Please consider? Thanks.
keep up the good work guys…maybe its better that you guys sub the whole ep. b/c sweetsecrets sub seems like not interested in doing this…
I’m really glad to hear that you’re doing well with the epsiodes. You’re really giving me hope about being abel to see the series subbed. Thank you for your hard work so far! ^^
Kiss has finished with Lovely Complex (Cute anime) and they are looking for something to sub now. Maybe SSF and FLC can ask them to take over the Odd for them. This would give the SSF staff time to get caught up and back on pace and solves Kiss “Holy Grail” search for what to sub.
Plus, they have subbed the first season of this series and did a great and fast job of it.
Since it seems you guys are responsible for ep 10 and 12, are SS responsible for ep 9 and 11?
it’s been awhile since any activity on sweet secrets…last post that owner made was late last month ….there is a supposed to be a post today *where i am it’s sunday” but i have yet to see any forward movement
it might be an idea to potentially try to find another subbing group or possibly double your work load by taking on the odd numbers yourself
either way i know quite a few ppl are wondering the same things i am
we all know none of this is your fault and you are doing the best you can *by you i mean you and your team* and we all wish you the best of luck
PS …ya spelled translator wrong 😉 >^.^<
Yessss. I’m still waiting for 7, I’m dying of impatience.
Haha. =P
Great work though, nonetheless.
please please please why is sss slow in releasing episodes..? um anyways hi i’m a new fan of SM season2 um i’m really glad that you guys are fast… can’t w8 for more episodes to come out.. i just want to confirm how many episodes does season2 have?
Thanks for giving us an update, you guys are great!!! I can’t wait to see the next episode.
Hopefully SS will get it together and release 7 soon.

god bless you guys!
Four Leaf Clover Staff;
Please read the suggestions below and consider what I am saying with all due seriousness; I am making these suggestions in your (your = you and the other group) best interests and the interests of the fans, and in the interests of whatever projects you should undertake in the future.
If the other group is working more slowly, pool resources and release the fansub as a joint project. It already IS a joint project, but in an odd way, even episodes/odd episodes — I guess that’s workable, but if one group is faster than the other, it leads to problems and the possibly of skipped episodes, or having to wait even though something is done — it’s just not working here.
Pool your resources.
Many, many, many smaller fansub groups ROUTINELY do dual releases — check baka-updates.com and you’ll find a great many of smaller group dual releases; and of excellent quality to boot.
The larger groups have translators and encoders and editors and QCers and Timers and Karaoke people and Translation Checkers and typesetters and such galore – they rarely have to seek people because of the prestige or honor perceived in working for an established group — a test is administered to those who wish to work with the group and the new person is called on as necessary. The only category of person who can always count on being needed is a good translator.
Seriously though – make it a real joint release, things would move more smoothly and more quickly, and as you mentioned above, they are having some trouble; okay, work together to take care of that trouble.
For all the years I’ve been involved in fansubbing, that is really the best solution for both groups and for the fans… and getting a channel on Rizon would also give you both a presence and make it possible to obtain more staff when you needed it more easily.
Please do consider what I am suggesting.
with saiunkoku when do you reckon ep 9 will be coming out (smiling)^^ i’m a huge fan of your work (the subs r really good- i mean that thier easy to read and i think saiunkoku would be a pretty hard sub to sub cuz of all the politticle lines (never heard of those words cuz thier not in other anime’s)^^. + i completly agree with AurynMajere that if possible you could upload ep 14 already ^^(not to put you under stress) well i’m looking foorword to your work to come^^ i’m a hugo no magor fan
thanks for all the hard work but I hope they will come out soon. I am desperate to see each episode and can’t stand to see without subs. Thanks and keep working hard!
I like the 2 season of Saiunkoku Monogatari.Do u have Raw of them .So I am looking for them .If you or somebody else have please give me link,thanks.
