No 1080p? No-o-o-o… Q_Q

bomberman2 said, in May 4th, 2009 at 8:27 PM

great work as always but.. mind if i ask u if u know a good e-shop that has/sells anime on BD/HDDVD ? cuz id still would like to buy em.

Jaden said, in May 4th, 2009 at 8:56 PM

This 720p much better than the other 1080p!!! Thora, you guys do great job!!! Forward looking for more episodes!!!

Takeshi_K said, in May 4th, 2009 at 9:36 PM

Always thought about watching this, guess now is a good time, thanks for the 720p!

seishin said, in May 4th, 2009 at 10:26 PM

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Skye said, in May 5th, 2009 at 12:00 AM

Thank you. I just started this seies but now i’ll see it in 720p. One problem though, how do I download them. I don’t have a clue of what IRC is. Can I wait till thay are finished to get them by torrent? Thanks once again.

thief_ac said, in May 5th, 2009 at 12:11 AM

This looks promising.Thank you guys!!!

DBaT said, in May 5th, 2009 at 1:35 AM

Yes like description says when all episodes are done it will be available as pack on torrent.

vuzedome said, in May 5th, 2009 at 11:39 AM

oh yeah!

quality over quantity said, in May 5th, 2009 at 12:20 PM

Will there be a 1080p release? One of the things that puzzle me on this site is why do they only release 720p for some series when they can release a much higher quality 1080p. I really hope there will be a 1080p version.

vuzedome said, in May 5th, 2009 at 2:32 PM

i don’t think there is a need for this to be in 1080p.

icxtir said, in May 5th, 2009 at 3:59 PM

Great anime, sad end as always though.
Thanks for this release you are No1

shaniqua said, in May 5th, 2009 at 4:45 PM

I don’t know where to ask it, but will you take up Tayutama or K-ON! ?
By the way, is there a topic called “Will you release…?” Couse if not, you should just name your future plans in “Projects” page.
(postscript: Please warn me if i said to much.)

joe said, in May 5th, 2009 at 4:46 PM

Glad i don’t need to get the E-D version. Something to look forward to once it’s all finished.

Jaden said, in May 5th, 2009 at 5:35 PM

quality over quantity if they could release 1080p, and it will be better than 720p, they will do it. But i saw 1080p, on torrents, and they or the same quality or even lower. Thora rip is rulz ^____^

CCJ said, in May 6th, 2009 at 4:12 AM

Thanks! Love F/SN.

Takeshi_K said, in May 6th, 2009 at 9:13 AM

@quality over quantity: I think, and this is only my personal opinion, some stuff are all right with 720p, and 1080p would only increase the file size without really enhancing video quality, stuff like Appleseed and Advent Children are stuff that should definitely be seen with 1080p, whereas maybe some anime series that don’t include that high motion scenes might be all right with 720p, either way, I’m glad you’re releasing stuff at 720p since that’s the only way I’d be able to watch them, and even if I could play 1080p, I’d take WAY too long to download. 4-6 GB for each movie is more than enough for me. Don’t feel like downloading 10+ for only single movie.

papsi said, in May 6th, 2009 at 12:16 PM

Thank you THORA for releasing fsn!

And some comments about the 720p/1080p debate:
I would personally release everything in 1080p too, even if the quality of the bluray source doesn’t approve it. 1080p is getting more and more popular these days, and in one or two years, it will be a normal thing (probably). Then everyone will whine that the 720p-only encodes need an 1080p rework for “obvious” reasons. It happened with KAA: earlier they’ve used XviD and hardsubs, and after some time, everyone wanted a rework with H264 and softsubs.

Of course, even 720p is better than nothing…

Jaden said, in May 6th, 2009 at 12:20 PM

There is no sense to upscale them to 1080p. Those users ho has 24″ monitors can resize it to it’s resolution, and the 720p will look like 1080p without any re-encode. It will make the file size bigger, but not the quality.

papsi said, in May 6th, 2009 at 1:02 PM

Upscaling a 720p encode to 1080p (literally) is pointless, I agree. What I mean is: re-encode from source in 1080p.

A friend told me that if you want to prove that a 1080p encode is pointless, you need to upscale some 720p encode pics to 1080p, and compare them with the bluray source itself. Is this true?

shiki said, in May 7th, 2009 at 9:14 AM

my screen’s resolution is 1440×900 and 720p is already good enough for me. IMO i think 1080 would benefit large screen users.

quality over quantity said, in May 7th, 2009 at 1:48 PM

Well, I also agree that upscaling is pointless if the source is 720p like what Jaden pointed out. However, from the official Fate/stay Night websites it seems that the source is in 1080p. The following are the links for you guys to check it out yourself

Official Fate/stay Night animation website:
http://www.staynight.com/item/br.html

Official Typemoon website:
http://www.typemoon.com/main.html

quality over quantity said, in May 7th, 2009 at 1:57 PM

Ops, I just realised that it may be in 1080i instead of 1080p. In that case, then releasing only a 720p version would be understandable

Jaden said, in May 7th, 2009 at 4:09 PM

quality over quantity, yeah ^__^ I think it is the best variant!!:)

Apa said, in May 7th, 2009 at 8:28 PM

@quality over quantity

Why? 1080i has the exact same resolution as 1080p.

Jaden said, in May 8th, 2009 at 8:36 AM

As i know 1080i = 1440×1080 auto resize to 1920×1080, and 1080p = 1920×1080.

Demosthenes said, in May 8th, 2009 at 8:48 AM

@Apa
Yeah the “i” in 1080i stands interlaced video, which is meant for analog screens (e.g. CRT screens). Whereas the “p” in 1080p stands for progressive scan, which is meant for digital screens (e.g. LCD, plasma, etc.). Now if you want to play a 1080i resolution on a digital screen, you have to deinterlace it first, and that degrades the video quality quite a bit. Plus, progressive scan takes up more memory in order to bring you more quality, unlike interlaced videos.

shiki said, in May 8th, 2009 at 12:02 PM

oh yeah and thanks thora for fate stay night!!!!it was a suprise.

ryhen said, in May 9th, 2009 at 4:48 AM

many thanks for this. keep it up guys

sushimonster said, in May 9th, 2009 at 2:09 PM

Just wondering, is this going to be softsubbed (all episodes + op and ed)? I had an avi version from eclipse and their ops and eds were hard-subbed… Would like to know (since I already have a raw file, but not at 720p/1080p)…
Cheers

ailailou said, in May 9th, 2009 at 8:38 PM

Strange, episode 5 is out, but what about episode 4? I suppose you didn’t skipped it.^^

sam1456 said, in May 9th, 2009 at 10:28 PM

I was wondering does anyone here know whats a good mkv video video cutter so that I could sync in the english audio perfectly thanks

tph said, in May 11th, 2009 at 4:23 AM

THORA’s encode + Eclipse’s subs. Can’t get much better!

sushimonster said, in May 11th, 2009 at 5:13 AM

Yes, but are they hard-subbed in any part of the anime itself (the main and/or op/ed)? Apart from that, sweet as work thora…

raXmit said, in May 13th, 2009 at 12:37 AM

ailailou: As of today, episode 4 is out.

I noticed 4 was missing last night as well, but I checked today and sure enough.. It’s there now.

Now all they need to do is update the post saying it’s complete up through 5.

Johnny91 said, in May 13th, 2009 at 9:02 PM

indeed like u say raXmit, episode 5 is available! But, as for episode 4 i still can’t see it listed in Thunder or Arutha’s XDCC and i guess it won’t be available on the other one as well.. ANyway it IS a great job and i guess that nobody has problems waiting

Johnny91 said, in May 13th, 2009 at 9:06 PM

Sorry, available only on Arutha

joe said, in May 14th, 2009 at 12:08 AM

6 episodes on the bot mentioned above now.

CCJ said, in May 15th, 2009 at 3:47 AM

So I’ve joined the IRC, but how do I download the episodes?

ace93 said, in May 16th, 2009 at 7:59 PM

Simply Great !
Keep it up

CCJ said, in May 19th, 2009 at 6:41 AM

Episode 7-9 released on IRC lol, just so you guys know..

Jaden said, in May 19th, 2009 at 1:07 PM

I didn’t see 7 episode -_-… 8 and 9 are on irc, but 7…. Waiting ^____^

joe said, in May 19th, 2009 at 3:10 PM

>Fate_Stay_Night_Ep11_Blood_Fort_Andromeda_[720p,BluRay,x264]_-_THORA.mkv

Seems like this will be finished soon. At this rate they will beat EG with Zeta releases at their peak.

Jaden said, in May 19th, 2009 at 3:43 PM

I belive they will fill the gap soon ^__^

Jaden said, in May 19th, 2009 at 9:08 PM

ooo 7 episode avaible!!!!!

meggido616 said, in May 20th, 2009 at 2:27 AM

thanks, keep it up

sushimonster said, in May 20th, 2009 at 11:10 AM

Hmm.. Quite good quality despite the fact that it is in 720p.

Anyway, just wondering why the ED is not in the episodes (in Episode 1 at least) – is this how the BD source was….?

Apart from that, keep up the good work!

Jaden said, in May 20th, 2009 at 12:23 PM

sushimonster have you downloaded “[70M] Fate_Stay_Night_ED1_[720p,BluRay,x264]_-_THORA.mkv” ???

sushimonster said, in May 20th, 2009 at 2:21 PM

Oops… I’ve been getting this through fellow off rapidshare… Didn’t see the ED on his list though……

Anyways, CHEERS~!

billjin1990 said, in May 24th, 2009 at 10:56 AM

can anyone locate episode 12? I can find 13 but not 12

Jaden said, in May 26th, 2009 at 7:51 AM

billjin1990 yes, there is no 12 episode. The irc chanel says, that the 12 episode will go after.

CCJ said, in May 29th, 2009 at 4:01 AM

Thanks for subbing all the way to 15 lol. Admire the quality, though I’ve noticed how the file sizes now ranges from 500-700MB. Not that it matters, I’m just curious why normal 720p ones are around 330MB-360MB while this is about 2x larger..

Jaden said, in May 29th, 2009 at 8:30 AM

CCJ you can’t compare DBrip’s and not only them. Every anime have there video data, that can be bigger duy to high quality actions scene, or just good animation or maybe how was made this o that BD made. One thing i can tell you clearly: if Thora make it with size 600-700mb – than it is the optimal for there quality/size ^___^.

sushimonster said, in May 29th, 2009 at 3:45 PM

Got the ED and a few episodes, but I noticed that the ED is creditless. Is this normal, and if not, is thora planning on releasing a credited (and soft-subbed) ED? Cheers in advance

Jaden said, in June 1st, 2009 at 6:00 PM

In 16 episode (15:57} Rin has a problem with her hear…

adenozin said, in June 2nd, 2009 at 1:34 AM

There’s not rin at that time.

Jaden said, in June 2nd, 2009 at 7:34 AM

I’m sorry…. 17:57

adenozin said, in June 2nd, 2009 at 9:33 AM

There’s no problem. Read this: http://www.thoranime.org/?page_id=1087#I get glitches in this realease, dammit, I wasted so much bandwidth, sob

Jaden said, in June 2nd, 2009 at 10:45 AM

i read that but still….

amuro said, in June 5th, 2009 at 8:44 AM

um does this series use ordered chapters?

Micko said, in June 5th, 2009 at 3:40 PM

@amuro
yes, though only the ED is in a separate file, OPs are included in the episode files.

Shakraka said, in June 5th, 2009 at 11:53 PM

So, as I pray, Unlimited Blu-Ray Works!

shiki said, in June 7th, 2009 at 7:47 AM

yes! 4 more episodes!!

joe said, in June 9th, 2009 at 8:43 AM

Only one more episode to go.

maumastoks said, in June 9th, 2009 at 7:03 PM

Hooray! It is done! =3

icxtir said, in June 9th, 2009 at 9:15 PM

Thank you very much guys.

ailailou said, in June 9th, 2009 at 9:54 PM

THORA! THORA! THORA!

jartsi said, in June 10th, 2009 at 12:48 AM

My favorite anime, thanks!

shiki said, in June 10th, 2009 at 2:24 AM

finally!!
THANKS thoranime!

Alucard said, in June 10th, 2009 at 4:34 AM

sex

way2quik said, in June 11th, 2009 at 11:02 PM

I noticed episode 14 had no ordered Chapters but along with the correct ED.

Am I missing something? There is no ED2 on the bots either.

way2quik said, in June 11th, 2009 at 11:12 PM

Cross that out.
My mistake.
Ep14 along with 24 are different.
My apologies.

papsi said, in June 15th, 2009 at 6:14 PM

I’ve just downloaded a 1080p BluRay release of the 2nd episode of FSN (from Anime-Supreme) and compared it with the 720p version from THORA. I’ve captured some pictures from both releases, resized THORA’s 720p release to 1080p and compared it with the 1080p pictures. Now I must admit that a 1080p release is not worth. The native 1080p video is nothing better than the 720p video from THORA. The image quality of the BluRay source is not sharp enough to justify a 1080p release.

Bottom line: a 720p release of FSN is sufficient.

Reno said, in July 1st, 2009 at 9:28 PM

I can not download
Invalid torrent file

Reno said, in July 2nd, 2009 at 7:23 AM

I’m sorry
There’s nothing wrong with it
It’s because of my torrent file

Reno said, in July 10th, 2009 at 12:06 PM

There’s something wrong with the torrent’s Fate_Stay_Night_ED
It can not be played

Micko said, in July 10th, 2009 at 1:20 PM

In 99,9% of times there’s nothing wrong with Thora’s releases so it’s probably a problem on your side.

In which way can’t it be played, as a stand alone file or it doesn’t show when you play the episode?

If it’s the latter then you should make sure you’re using a player that supports ordered chapters.

I got FSN from IRC and it’s working fine so if the problem persists, try getting ED from IRC.

Reno said, in July 10th, 2009 at 5:20 PM

I use KMPlayer to play mkv file
The ED file is continue to play but the picture is stand still and there’s no sound at all
And even it doesn’t finish playing the file, it automatically skip to the next file
I really don’t have any idea what this problem is
All the order files is oke

Micko said, in July 10th, 2009 at 5:59 PM

Ok, the problem is most probably the codecs and KMPlayer.

To have you’re Thora files working properly download and install CCCP codec pack and use Media Player Classic to play the files. The problems will disappear.

adenozin said, in July 10th, 2009 at 9:49 PM

Use Haali splitter.

Reno said, in July 23rd, 2009 at 9:05 AM

Sorry this problem is a long time ago but where can I find Media Player Classic and this CCCP codes pack thing again

Micko said, in July 23rd, 2009 at 11:44 AM

CCCP:
http://cccp-project.net/

Windows Media Player Classic comes with the windows installation (XP, don’t know about Vista), so you can find it in Program Files. But I suggest you use MP Classic Home Cinema that will be installed automatically (if I’m not mistaking) with CCCP.

If it’s not, just search it on google, it’s free.

And one last thing, if you want to watch 1080p you’ll probably need CoreAVC, but for more on that look in Evangelion page.

Reno said, in July 23rd, 2009 at 2:48 PM

I use Vista and I can’t find MPC anywhere so I just download it from this page http://www.pree-codecs.com and cccp from this page cccp-project.net
And after finishing install it, everything work well
But I still have a question, in the ED, does the karaoke appear later than the lyric?
And you say I need the CoreAVC to watch 1080p, right, so where can I find it (you want me to look at Evangelion page huh, I’ll do it right away)

Micko said, in July 23rd, 2009 at 3:50 PM

No, there’s nothing wrong with karaoke, they appear simultaneously with the lyrics.

About getting CoreAVC, somebody wrote in on the Evangelion page, just search for it in the comments. Actually, read all the comments, some of them are really helpful.

Reno said, in July 23rd, 2009 at 4:29 PM

I don’t know what wrong with it
At first, the karaoke appear correctly but it run slowly and after a while it appear later than the lyric
If I turn off the sub and then turn on again, it appear correctly with the lyric at that time but then it still run slowly and the same problem happen again

Reno said, in July 23rd, 2009 at 9:16 PM

Oh yeah, I finally make it
Everything works well now
All thanks to you Micko-senpai

MacKubeX said, in July 31st, 2009 at 10:51 PM

Would someone care to elaborate, as to what (Eclipse + R1) subs mean?

digitalrurouni said, in August 1st, 2009 at 12:58 AM

I am not sure about R1 but I know about Eclipse. THey are a pretty good fansubbing group.

Apa said, in August 1st, 2009 at 11:03 PM

Eclipse Fansubs and region 1 DVDs?

MacKubeX said, in August 2nd, 2009 at 2:31 AM

I know about Eclipse and the fact that R1 stands for the region 1 DVDs.
What I was wondering is whether there’s a choice between the two [multi-sub] or if it was Eclipse’s sub re-adapted with the region 1 DVD original.

teohhanhui said, in September 1st, 2009 at 7:59 AM

Too bad that the flashback, the OP and the episode itself are all in the same chapter titled “Main”. I know the OP is not linked but still… A few extra chapters won’t hurt as it’s better for navigation.

BackLash said, in September 8th, 2009 at 3:05 AM

:S 500-800 mb for one episode….
but anything is worth for blueray

digitalrurouni said, in September 9th, 2009 at 3:50 AM

Yes it is except this show despite looking pretty sucks lol

tieungaogiangho said, in November 26th, 2009 at 7:09 AM

hey guys, did you know something happen to episode 3 in the torrent. Instead of receiving episode 3 I got something else completely different. The file is still the same but the content is about Vietnamese communists in the Vietnam war (audio is in Vietnamese also).
adenozin, do you know why?
Thank you in advance.
The rest is great though. THORA rule!!

bnye88 said, in November 26th, 2009 at 8:53 AM

will an OP with credits be released in the future?

tieungaogiangho said, in November 27th, 2009 at 7:34 AM

is this the only season of fate/stay night?
i am newbie in anime

jasonxiao said, in November 29th, 2009 at 4:32 AM

yes, and fate/stay night will have a movie in 2009

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki

go to wiki and search for information

jasonxiao said, in November 29th, 2009 at 4:32 AM

i mean 2010

Sebastian said, in January 28th, 2010 at 2:35 AM

Mmm, I downloaded the thing but I don’t have any subtitles, not even encoded hard subs. Just 27 .mkv files, an .md5 file and a .nfo file.

Matthew said, in January 28th, 2010 at 11:14 AM

The subtitles are in the mkvs (as is the video and audio). Installing CCCP (http://www.cccp-project.net/) is probably the easiest way to watch these.

Sebastian said, in January 28th, 2010 at 10:37 PM

That did it. Thank you.

EncoreZ said, in February 19th, 2010 at 9:46 PM

Thanks for this release guys!

On another note… I’ve heard that your OP/ED are creditless so somehow, I got disappointed, like how I got turned off by your Toaru Majutsu no Index release when I discovered while watching it without the OP/ED credits, and was having doubts in grabbing this.

But anyways, I’ll just grab both yours and Doki’s despite of me having really slow internet. I don’t wanna watch my anime OP/ED without credits the first time after all.

Hopefully your future releases will not change the OP/ED in creditless though.
