Info...

This is the animated opening sequence to the 2002.10.25 bishoujo game Tenaku. Actually, this game is a yarugee (yah-roo-geh), in that all you do is try to violate the two girls you see in the banner as many times as possible. I'm not kidding.


Story...

While browsing around Studio e.go's site after doing My Fair Angel Op, this was their newest game. Since it looked interesting, I looked around for two weeks trying to get the Op. Eventually we got it, and we started work on the 12th of December. However, with Canvas Op being top priority at that time, there was very slow progress on this for most of December. It was eventually done in about a month, making it our third solo release and second in January.

The original raw had many shitblocks. Landcaster went through every frame and fixed them all up!

Yeah, this release didnt have much of a story behind it... sorry about that.


Qualitative rating - 2

So you think the qualitative rating is just a measure of how pretty our fansubs are? Think again.

After watching this again a year after it was released, I realized how horrible some of the translated lines are. We can't redo this easily because the retouched raw was lost in a hard drive crash. This gets my vote as our worst Op fansub because the lyrics are poorly translated. =(

UFG said that the line "when will the real you show up?" was off. However, Reikoku insisted that "tadori tsukeru" was two words in this context, even though "tadoritsuku" means 'to reach'. If used in that way, the line becomes "when will you reach out to me?". Subtle, but different. Your call. I personally think Reikoku was incorrect.

The karaoke FX used were also lame and were distracting instead of complementing.


Feedback...
"I just saw the Tenaku OP and I thought it was great! There may have been a few technical difficulties (I was told there were... I didn't actually spot any :) ) but the overall impression is quite good. The fansub shows that care was put into it, something that could almost be felt!"

Side notes...
  • Tenaku is actually a combination of two Japanese words: tenshi (angel), and akuma (devil). Hence the secondary name Angel and Devil.
  • The song? Kokubyaku No Tenpuu (Heretical Holy Way), sung by CANDY.
  • The blonde is named Shouko, while the guy is Shouichi. They are brother and sister.
