Gurren Lagann Parallel Works »
Okay, quick little release for you guys. I decided to work on Gurren Lagann Parallel Works in the meantime while I’m plugging away at Samurai 7. It’s a series of what essentially amount to awesome music videos. 8 pieces, 32 minutes total. They feature music from or inspired by the original series, and each video is directed by one of the project’s staff members. They use the same character designs, but are essentially set in parallel universes, so what happens in the videos is not at all canon.
This release does not have any subs. There is no dialogue, but there is some text that remains untranslated. Why? I was lazy, had an R2 source, and didn’t feel like getting someone to translate them for me. If you really want to know what they little bits of text say, you can try and find someone’s translation elsewhere, but as far as I’m concerned, it’s really not necessary. Other than that, this release features stereo FLAC audio from the LPCM on the disc. It’s all music, so the FLAC is more than justified (and in my opinion it is always justified, so whatever). The video bitrate is pretty high as well, but hey, they’re high-action music videos. What would you expect?
Anyway, have fun grabbing it. Oh, and since I seem to have neglected to mention this, we do have a new bot, [NPC]Kino, provided by Faufnir. Not sure when GLPW will be on the bot though, so check in later or just grab it from the torrent.

Thanks for the release, thought you might’ve gone awol since you’ve been working on 7 for a long time. Do you plan on doing parallel works 2 as well? Just curious.

If I can get my hands on the source, yes.
