Submit a list of your archived shit regulary in the meta thread

The Story: with TPP and other recent events, the loss of much material is at stake. The fall of megaupload, as well as other hosting services, just gives this precedent.

What do? We will assemble various teams to archive all the shit possible, from every corner possible, and preserve it for future use.

We must essentially find and save everything we can. Each team will be tasked with a specific era dating back to the 1970s - preferably subbed, and in high quality (i.e. BDrips, for instance) but if there's no other alternative, what is around will suffice.

>Team 0079: 70s anime - original Gundam, the Mazinger series, Ginguiser, Aim for the Ace, are just the famous examples of what was around that era.

>Team 0083. your task is to find all the anime that you can find, from 1980 to 1985. Macross, VOTOMS, Urusei Yatsura, Dougram and Ideon are only the tip of the iceberg.

>Team 0087: your task is to dig out every anime from 1986 to 1989. Good examples are Bubblegum Crisis, Gundam ZZ, and Gall Force, to name a few.

>Team 0093: your task is to hoard all the anime from the early 90s era, which would cover 1990-1995. Some few examples would be Tekkaman Blade, Victory Gundam, Sailor Moon, and Cyber Formula.

>Team 0096: your tast is to cover what's left of the 90s. You saw a lot of this shit on Toonami, so it shouldn't be hard to find any of these.

>Team 00: you will hunt down every early 2000s (i.e. 2000-2005) anime you can find. Unlike the previous eras, these should not only be easier to find, but also the most numerous.

>Team OOO: as above, these should be the easiest and most plentiful.

In addition, I was thinking that there should be a team devoted to anything pre-70s. Since much of the material from the 60s and prior isn't exactly available (masters are lost, etc.), then there probably won't be much to work with to begin with.

>[HorribleSubs] BlazBlue - Alter Memory [720p][MKV]

>[HorribleSubs] Death Parade 1080p

>[HorribleSubs] Garo - The Animation 1080p

Thank you for your participation.

A .torrent would be easier for you and us.

I'm illiterate when it comes to that so a guide would be necessary. Sorry for any trouble that'd cause.

no trouble. Thanks for wanting to help.

>>150

Thank you, I'll archive it in parts before I put it into the torrent as my internet connection is ass and that'll help slightly. What tracker do we use here and is there any special requirement to use it?


6a1e81 No.152

>>151

We are currently using no specific tracker. A couple of people on the core team will download the torrent and later reupload it via secure i2p trackers.

If you have more question feel free to come on the IRC channel: https://rizon.net/chat #eternalarchive


16a621 No.161

>>152

Welp. It turns out my ISP love cooperating when it comes to copyright charges. It'll be safer for me to upload to MEGA than using a public tracker because of this. Sorry for the inconvenience.


16a621 No.162

>>161

Because of this change in plan, out of the ones I listed, what do you have copies of?


6a1e81 No.168

>>162

No problem, up it on mega then.

Out of your list we already have:

>Claymore.JP,EN

>Fate Stay Night 1-24 (avi)

>Fate Zero [Dual Audio] [BD 1080p]

>Neon Genesis Evangelion

>Samurai Deeper Kyo (Complete) (avi)


16a621 No.175

>>168

Right, it'll be going up in two lots. I hope to have the first (everything not already uploaded or prefixed with [HorribleSubs]) by tomorrow evening Britbong time. The next should follow the day after if my ISP stays stable so expect delays.

Yes, I know, but if Ordianbro ever gets to finish properly subbing this, the RAWs must be preserved first.

tl;dr we need more seeds

Where did you got that info from?

Make a master spreadsheet, pastebins will be a clusterfuck. Then make team based sheets, just divide the spread sheets for each team to work on.

And scratch having to look for non-Flac 720p stuff, some us (me) have an AB account and those are not usually free leech, the others are.

If I am going to be hoarding stuff, I will rather not blow my ratio. And I really don't mind seeding bloated stuff, if someone else has a lighter version and people prefer them then we would have two versions, not duplicates. no big deal.

This is what I have in relative order, I might start the uploading to i2p of these tomorrow. I will make my own sheet of what I've uploaded and then I'll give it to whoever is organizing this.

Unless anyone has another suggestion.

Just heard, glad there are some people helping out in trying times.

I don't know much about i2p, TPP or TOR, but i have some anime already, and i'm willing to share when/if possible.


43a92f No.254

>>245

The hardsubbed version is worthless, in all honesty.

I'll see if I can contact Ordianbro somehow, let him know what's up so he gets his gears ready for when the time comes.

If we have a distribution method, then i've got almost 800 animes archived already.

A number of them are 480p as i was in the middle of replacing them, but theres also a good amount of stuff that cant really be found elsewhere, or was too old or obscure for rerelease. Ialready have alot of what you gave the teams to findbtw


b4933c No.277

>>275

God, fuck this keyboard.

Anyway, I've been prepping for something like TPP for a while now.

I'll try to throw together a script to go through and compile a list all the shit I have. I'll probably do the same for some of the other boards while I'm at it.


9399b1 No.288

>>247

The list is from an IRC guy (me). His friend has scraped several APIs to get the list together.

I second that idea with the spreasheet. It will also help us to get things sorted way better.

The proposed naming conventions are based on releases of Western TV shows, and hardly anyone in the anime scene uses them. Because they aren't very good. The torrent name doesn't specify the video source, the video and audio codecs, 10-bit encoding, and release group. How will you even distinguish between different releases without consulting a text file? The file names have no useful information at all, and almost everything people will share will be pre-existing rips anyway, and their filenames should be left unchanged as a rule.

I hope this archival team thing somehow works out, but to anyone not participating I would tell you to just go out and hoard anything and everything that catches your interest even a little, or because it seems like something rare that's worth saving.

By the way, don't forget about music and artbooks. I don't have much of the latter (at the moment), but I download a lot of music. When I download a new show I always get the music too, if it's available.

Any artbooks and OSTs of particular interest? I have access to AnimeBytes, so we could be able to hoard some stuff from there.

What are your thoughts on DVD rips? Is there a good guide somewhere on DVD ripping without fucking up discs?

Well fuck me, MEGA banned me for some backups of a game that I'd put on /v/ a while back. I'll try to get it done another way but this is getting annoying.

How are we going to handle video quality, subtitle quality, codecs, that kind of stuff? We're probably going to end up having people downloading 360p, files that have been transcoded more than once (you lose quality every time unless you're using lossless codecs), someone uploading something that only has Spanish subtitles, or from some subgroup that is horrible at subtitling. Some files will be theora, others h264, others h265, some idiot will probably only have Xvid or h262 or h263 files. We'll probably also have a bunch of 1080p stuff which is usually just upscaled 720p.

We need a way to get everyone on the same board as far as what fansub groups are best, to try to find good quality vp9 or h265 first, then vp8 or h264, to try to only download 720p unless 1080p is actually true 1080p and not an upscale, that kind of stuff. We should also have at least 2 people with copies of data in case someone disappears or their hard drive dies and they didn't keep proper backups.


8468d0 No.552

>>551

We should also aim for English and Japanese subtitles, preferably with optional sign subtitles and notes when something is said that those outside of Japanese culture probably wouldn't understand. Dual audio would also be good if it's been dubbed (some people like dubs).

If the TPP really does hit like a bomb it would suck to have poor quality anime and that be your only option.

Forgive me if my question is stupid. In one of the stickies there is a pastebin of "archived anime."

How do we "update" the list? I, as many anons do, already have a bunch of series on hand that aren't listed in the pastebin. Suppose I have series X that isn't listed, would I have to physically upload it to the postmans eep page for it to be considered archived? Is simply having it backed up on a hoarding hard drive considered sufficient?

Secondly, suppose I "archive" a new series. Is there a way to update the pastebin myself? Do I IRC/post/message someone with the series info so they update the list?

Yes that helps, thank you.

Any word on how/where we communicate our inventories to to prevent a gross duplication of effort? I understand redundancy is a good thing to a large extent but without a better way to track what's handled and what's not we're not getting far


43a92f No.703

There's an IRC channel for the effort as a whole, but we could always make one for anime, specifically.

This is what I have currently stored.

Contemplating on changing Coalgirls releases to other ones, possibly Doki.

Definitely going to replace my dual audio releases.

Why is Doki better than Coalgirls?
