December 25, 2020 (21:00 UTC): We have released Goldfish Warning! 53v2 and 54 (the last episode). Happy Gyoppy holidays with wonderfully wacky Wapiko!
One score minus five years ago, that is to say 15 years ago, our fansub team brought forth a new project, conceived in happiness, with the beautiful metaphor that all students, human or non-human, are equally valued and coexist peacefully. Now we are releasing the final episode, Goldfish Warning!, Episode 54. The world will little note, nor long remember what we subbed here, but it can never forget what Wapiko, Gyopi, Chitose, Bad Ox, and others did. It is rather for us old-school fansubbers to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that those old shows from 1990s or so shall not be ignored, overlooked, and forgotten in vain, and that free subbing communities of the fans, by the fans, for the fans, shall not perish from the earth.

October 13, 2020 (4:30 UTC): We’ve released Goldfish Warning! 53.
This is the penultimate episode of Goldfish Warning!. [More info]
September 26, 2020 (21:04 UTC): So we have released Goldfish Warning! 52. Only 2 more to go. [More info]
September 7, 2020: We have a plan to do Minky Momo: The Bridge Over Dreams (BoD) v2. The v1 was multisubbed in 7 languages in 2007 using XviD+Vorbis. The v2 is probably going to be x264+AC3 for better visual quality, and with a few (minor) translation fixes. Currently, 4-language multisubbing (English, Japanese, Dutch, and Italian) is planned. If you like BoD and are interested in adding subs in your language (e.g. Spanish, French, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, Arabic, etc.) feel free to contact us or join #honobono @ irc.aniverse.com!
August 22, 2020 (23:23 UTC): We have released Goldfish Warning! 51. [More info]
August 9, 2020: We are already translating Idol Angel Yōkoso Yōko (YY) pre-emptively, though only God knows when we can release the first episode. Its sister show (アイドル伝説えり子 — lit. “Idol Legend Eriko”) is called variously in English — Legendary Idol Eriko (by NeXT, and by Kirion), Eriko, the Legendary Idol (by Ashi Productions itself), Idol Densetsu Eriko (by KiteSeekers-Licca). Similarly, the title of this show (アイドル天使ようこそようこ) could be translated as “Angelic Idol Yōkoso Yōko” or “Idol Tenshi Yōkoso Yōko,” though we’re going to call it Idol Angel Yōkoso Yōko. Yōko is the heroine of the show; the word yōkoso (literally meaning “welcome”) sounds like Yōko, obviously a pun intended.
July 19, 2020 (22:10 UTC): We have released Fushigiboshi no Futagohime Gyu! 08. [More info]
July 5, 2020 (11:50 UTC): We have released Goldfish Warning! 50.
This episode was actually encoded more than two weeks ago. Final-checking took longer than expected. [More info]

you can see a Chinese restaurant (ramen place) named Chun Li (春麗);
a sporting-good store named Blanka;
and an Indian restaurant named Dhalsim.

This is our v2 release of Episode 53, where the next episode titles said in the preview were fixed. It also includes one minor timing tweak and about 30 additional “cleaned frames” (meaning, dirt was removed as in the following example):

The visual difference is not so significant though, because frame-by-frame cleaning is routinely done in our GfW releases and noticeably dirty frames were already cleaned in v1.

An actual frame from Ep. 53 (left) and the corresponding frame from the preview in Ep. 52 (right).
Brilliant light effects were added some time in the week between the two episodes,
suggesting the animators’ tight schedule and devotion.

Pure white birds symbolically flying away — a Dezaki-esque expression (if you have Rose of Versailles, check e.g. eps. 19–20) but more delicate.

The joke is, Chitose’s mom says she “just got back from Switzerland,” yet for some reason
she brings back “a specialty of Nagoya” as a souvenir — her story doesn’t add up.
Uirō is a sweet cake made of rice flour, indeed a specialty of Nagoya, though fried-shrimp flavored uirō is unrealistic.
As an additional joke, ebifurai (“fried shrimp”) is written as ebifuryā in a (fake) Nagoya accent:
“Japanese comedian Tamori once joked about Nagoya dialect such as ebifuryaa […],”
“but restaurateurs in Nagoya took advantage of the joke and ebifurai became one of Nagoya's specialty foods.”
