I'm pretty sure its safe to say the file is in the good hands of GinRei.

I would like to take this opportunity to mention a few things. Just like with the anime, it is no easy task to bring you quality scanlations. From the raw, to cleaning, to translation, to editing, to final release... Each step is time consuming. And we all have lives, so one must take that into account as well.

For instance... Raw scanning alone takes a few hours, if I want them to be top quality. That is, straight, not ripped, clean cut. Then rotating, and cropping. And that is just to get the basic full sized large raw scan. And that alone takes at least 1h 30min. During that... I also clean it, cut out any unsightly edges, desaturate, whiten the "white areas" and blacken the "black areas," resize, monochrome, and usually level it, to get rid of lightness. And I'd like to remind everyone this is only initial cleaning, I'm sure most realize the final product is even darker and more defined than the raw I put out. Just that initial cleaning takes about 2 hours (added onto the initial 1 hr 30). So now, imagine this... just the initial step takes about 3hrs 30 minutes. Not to mention the HW that I must do for my classes, tests, and any papers that I need to do.

And I am sure if you ask our newest staffer HiddenDetective how it is translating. If I recall just after his first time out, he found new respect for the translators. It is not easy translating from Japanese to English. I'm sure most of you know there is no such thing as an "exact" translation. Especially with Japanese where there is a certain amount of inflection, and interpreting based on context to make the translation accurate. Then to make it into understandable English... (The reason why I chose not to translate, though capable)

Then editing.... Honestly... I can only imagine what GinRei does... I have no idea... I can only guess... He puts the translation in the right places, makes them the right size to fit the bubbles, puts in all the notes, and basically makes it readable for everyone. Not to mention fixing any grammatical mistakes, and so fourth. He also finalizes the images to make them what you see in the final product.

Yet even with our own personal busy lives we still manage to release the file within a week. This week may be different, due to unforeseen delays, both in Japan (accident), and with me for personal reasons. Translation may be able to progress with other raws found on the internet, but GinRei's job depends on the HQ raws I provide for him. So because of those delays he was delayed as well...

In short... Stop complaining.

If you people who constantly ask for the raw think you can do everything I have listed (and somethings I may not even know about in the editing dept), and release it within a week at the same HQ that we do, please, be my guest.

For now... be patient. It MAY not come out today, because of the late start. I am not sure, you would have to ask GinRei about that.

Thank you,
-kyuu

but you also edit, right? does that mean your way of editing and GinRei's is somewhat different? What application do you use? :D

As I said... I scan and clean... Editing is a whole different thing. I probably have the same tools as GinRei, but that doesn't mean we do the same thing. Editing involves more.

If you read up... you could have deduced that it was, but the link to download was removed by me as it was not a DCTP  raw. Search google, you are bound to find the early release, if you want my HQ, you'll have to wait until later. Also... I feel like I am a broken record today... DON'T ASK! BE PATIENT! Seriously... Given that you wanted any raw google would have been much better to ask than here. If you wanted my raws... not asking is the better policy unless it is late (ie Wednesday). If it is late for any reason, I'll be sure to tell everyone through a post.

Well, we already know by now, but I already expected the new case to be non-BO related. The Red Wall case will eventually be somehow related to the BO imo (notice there's not a triangle at the end). And I believe Yui, Kansuke and Koumei will probably play some role in the big picture. I can't see why else Gosho would introduce them again (and the focus really was pretty much on Koumei, so I can't believe he's some insignificant character).

But I sure hope there'll soon be a case in which the BO plays an important part, and doesn't just contain some random remarks about them.

Usually I'd agree with Jd-, I don't like childhood memory cases either, but since I really like Shiratori, it's pretty interesting for me. And as long as the Detective Boys efface themselves, I don't have a problem with them.

I think the next episode would have Yamamoto bringing Conan and everyone back home, since he drove them all out there, then something BO related happens. Conan tries to make Yamamoto stay off track and off the truth about the BO, confusing the man whom used to get brilliant deductions from the child. He suspects Conan of something, what, he does not know.

Somehow during all of this, Yamamoto learns either Conan's true identity, or just who the BO is, about the FBI, and hence suspects Conan for having something to do with them (seeing as h was acting funny earlier.)

Maybe they watch another dealing?Or Kaito Kid gets sniped by Chianti for being a bad boy and continuing to steal? OR, maybe there is a murder hat they just can't solve! We haven't had an unsolvable murder as of yet. =D

This seems to be a topic that is always posed when a case ends and a new one begins.

I enjoy random murder cases. They area lot of fun to try and solve. I even got the previous case's solution. It's such a rush to see your deductions prove to be true. This is y favorite murder mystery series.
CSI is just too easy to solve most of the time.

i agree CSI is not exactly difficult to solve, but then isn't it more based on the science not the deduction?

I don't think it is boring. I like normal cases a lot. Especially those, where the culprit is already known and you only have to look for the clues against tah person. I'm, a big fan of Colombo-mysteries. ^^

I liked that Ai & Conan consulted about the case (I think it was about the case) and Shiratori's anxiety or what. I've seen far worse cases.
