I'm sorry, but even though we have MANY projects, since when have we not release almost an episode per week, being only 1 episode behind the current episode?colyn7 wrote:hahaha... oh well.. timeless sub have many projects...
Akai Ito is also subbed by them I think.. hehehe... It's almost finished we are at Episode 10.. Its also a great Jdrama...
I've watched Ep 6 raw.. and now am gonna watch the subbed version...
We are working hard for YOUR sake as FANS. Would you wish us not to take up any more projects and leave series unsubbed?
We are fansubbing for YOUR sake to ENJOY the drama. Please tell me which other fansub releases dramas at such consistency like clockwork? (I can name a few btw)
We have tried our best to shave off as much time between episodes during our process without sacrificing quality. We HAVE a life outside fansubbing. It is NOT as if we just sit in front of our computers and fansub all day long. Softsubs do not usually go through a few other steps like typesetting, and encoding which TAKES TIME.
In fact we are planning to expand next season and take up MORE projects than we have now, in order to bring you FANS as many subbed dramas as possible to enjoy. If you think that is unwise, then I think we at TLS should just stop fansubbing altogether.
I hope in future you would think twice and thrice before making a comment like "TLS is handling too many projects" and "TLS is so much slower than softsubs". Such comments discourage our team and question their reason to fansub for people like yourself.
Please you should not get discouraged. I personally believe that you are great on the projects that you have taken. Thank you for your hard work and your marvelous quality in your jobs. I am very glad to hear that you are thinking to handle more projectsthree-ple-z wrote:I'm sorry, but even though we have MANY projects, since when have we not release almost an episode per week, being only 1 episode behind the current episode?colyn7 wrote:hahaha... oh well.. timeless sub have many projects...

If you follow a show week by week we as FANS may become anxious of the following episodes which lead them spoilers, fast SS or even to check streaming sites with poor translations. But we should not forget that these subs (SS or HS) will be available for a long time and many new FANS will watch these shows in future even they had ended years before. Then having SS earlier would mean nothing but subtitle quality would differ. I believe that TLS's HS will be (and have been) great in that respect. I enjoyed many shows because of their dedicated work.
Personally I prefer to follow the series after they end. Hence you would not feel anxious!
I think its great what TLS are doing is really something i mean putting up subs within 4 or 5 days! Most people do not know how much time and work it efforts to make good subs they think you just translate everything and paste it somewhere they don't know you got the set the timing and you must adjust every little thing about it.. I once tried to sub some things just short things and i got crazy i never got to finish it you really must be patience to this sort of work and escpecially if u must sub something of almost an hour! What i wanted to sub was like 5 mins =S (maybe i just really suck at it) but its rlly much work so i rlly apreciate what you guys are doing for many fans who can't understand the language even though you guys have your own life and are like putting on effort for somebody elses sake its a real nice thing to do and not everybody would do something like this, i hope also the fans will apreciate what you guys are doing for them more now. And keep on subbing!
Wow... and just when I think that this show can't surprise me, they dish out such an intense episode!
Poor Rihito... Poor Mei...
Regarding subs... Dear subbing-crew, don't let those "fans" who just demand and behave like they are entitled to get subs right now... don't let yourself being put under pressure by those brain dead selfish "I-want" people.
Those egoists who just want and want, and don't have the decency to roll up their sleeves and help you in the hard work that subtitling is, they have no right to talk big and make you feel bad. So please, don't allow them to disencourage you.
I'm very grateful for the effort you put into the subs. You add information in there that helps me understand the "inside-jokes".
I'm a fansubber myself, and I do know how long it takes to do translations , what a pain in the rear end timing is, and how many days of work go into one episode.
Dear "I want-my-subs-now" crowd... your average 60-minute show has around 800-1000 lines that require translation, and if you work from scratch, you also have to transcribe those lines first!... so, how fast can you "entitlement much"-crowd translate 800-1000 sentences? How many hours can you be bothered to sit in front of the screen and watch a scene dozens of times, watch, rewind, watch, rewind, make the timing fit perfectly...?
And not just do it one time, but do it repeatedly every week?
Dar "Entitlement much" crowd... if you want your subs faster, get your lazy behinds into gear, join a subbing group and WORK.

@ kanshu, yet again another great insight. JUST LOVE IT.
last night ep was the most emotional ep ever. i can't remember myself in tears with any of previous eps but ep 7 was really sad and great at the same time.
ok, this drama is getting very good by each eps. it is only going from strength to strength. if it carries like this, i think it can match HYD in popularity even though has none of johnny's guys.

Mmm... actually, I think it's very well possible that Shiori (or the dynamic Tami&Shinobu-duo) is behind the death of Mei's parents. But if that is the case, then why not wipe out those three at the same time? Why risking for Mei to possibly return? Or was Mei supposed to die in that accident, too? And why did the attempts on her life stop? I mean, outside of the blowing up of her home and the arrows shot at her in episode 1, there hasn't been any attempt on her life. So what happened? Did Rihito do much more "behind the scenes" than we saw?Issy wrote:regardig rihito
Regard Rihito:
again for some reason's i have no doubt that evil trio (shiori/shinobu/tami) are behind mei's parent accident. the fact that they did not give us any info about how her parents died and in a such rushed way, it could well mean that they are going back to that part in later eps.kanshu wrote:Mmm... actually, I think it's very well possible that Shiori (or the dynamic Tami&Shinobu-duo) is behind the death of Mei's parents.

some how i think mei was suppose to die with her parents too but it did not happened and blowing up her house was too complete their previous failed plan. but it failed again becausew rihito was there to save her.
and howcome out of all those places, he ends up where mei lives (unless he had decided to see his brother). i guess that he went to find out about those weird stuff that had all connections with mei.
This drama is getting better and better. Now i'm totally addicted. I feel rihito's feelings between his silence. Great acting. Hiro Nana Takeru, i like all of you!
I really love reading the insight of you guys in this discussion. It makes me enjoy this show more and more.
Manga is still at volume 8 and now it's a bit confusing too.

i haven't seen episode 7 yet but from your spoiler, now i only hope they'll not decide to end the show with Mei paired with none of the brothers.now the question is who is going to get MEI now
she knows her firend like her and she also knows her buttler(rihito) likes her... Blink
two brothers Unsure one girl whats next..........>>>>>>>>>>>

Yes, why indeed?Issy wrote: again for some reason's i have no doubt that evil trio (shiori/shinobu/tami) are behind mei's parent accident. the fact that they did not give us any info about how her parents died and in a such rushed way, it could well mean that they are going back to that part in later eps.

I want a happyending for MeixRihito ^^_________^^ .... There is something about them ... i feel like they have something makes me think they are made for each other ... About Kento, i think he is awesome in later episodes but he can't make me feel that something will happen between him & Mei ... ^______^ this is my own opinion because i so felt for rihito ... and i think , Kento is so small when he stand by Mei ... In Manga, mei's grandfather said to Rihito that " Rihito, make love with her as soon as possibe "... So I think, eventhough the drama has many points different from the manga, but the main point can's be changed ... Like the way of the Boy over flowers Korean drama T_________T ... As for Mei to become the heiress of Hongo Corp. I think Rihito is the best choice for her to get married ^_______^ ... He has knowledge , he is trained overseas , since he was a child ^_________^ , from manga, Rihito was the one who MEi's grandfather chose to be together with mei because of Rihito's granfather's fault ( Help Mei's parents run away from Hongo ^^ ).. so Mei's grandfather taught Rihito everything to help him gain everything ( The purpose must be protecting Mei ) but didn't tell him anything about that. So Rihito can't express his felling because he thinks he can't love her ... But Episode 8 is really something . Rihito says he is not giving up on mei ^_________^ i love that part , can't wait anymore ...This drama is getting better and better and I prefer it than any drama at the time ^_____^ ... From what i saw, seem like Rihito is forced to serve that **** SHIORI, he is doing that because he is afraid of something Shiori will do to Mei? or he lost Mei and he can't control his felling if he doesn't work .. so he serve Shiori without emotions, with a dead eyes T____________T And in ep 7, i can see something wrong with Shinobu, i think now Rihito is back, he must feel bad because the Girl he love has the " favorite toy " and kind of forgeting about him ...
Totally totally agree with you. I only hope to see more of the MeiXRihito as a couple. Till now is all suspence, glances and silence. We have senn more of MeiXKento. It seems that is Kento who talk to her more and understand her more. In the manga the first volumes have more of Mei and Rihito relationship.hang_1988 wrote:I want a happyending for MeixRihito ^^_________^^ ....

You know, now what I think about. . . I don't think she's ever said his name. When she speaks about him, she uses pronouns and when she speaks to him, she says 'you'.
You haven't missed it--I've been waiting for it, too! Will she add the -sama, go with -san, or just say plain "Rihito"? I'm dying to know!OH, and i am also waiting for mei to call rihito by his name. since she met him in ep 1, she has never said his name . not even ONCE. or, have i missed it?
I've also been waiting for a smile from Rihito that shows some teeth. As far as I can tell we've only seen one--in ep one, around the 'I'll be your sword/shield" line. He does show some pearly whites in the end credits, but that doesn't count.
I get the feeling that the closed mouth smile is polite, S-rank, and "Rihito the butler" while an open mouthed smile is "Rihito the man". I'd really like to see it...

OH I just watched ep 7 in raw. I am waiting for the subs, but this raw watching is fun. Kind of improves my listening..I think haha. So thank you to everyone who posted their opinions, I think I was able to understand more too
I also noticed that Mei has never called Rihito by his name. It's always "neeee" or just starts talking. They are so cute. I am definately rooting for them. I thought ep 6 was good with Mameshiba, but Rihito's scene was just as good.

I think Rihito can't quit for being butler because he has do something to repay Mei's grandfather. As you know, Rihito's garandfather help Mei's father run away from home and became normal people but Mei's grandfather did forgive Rihito's grandfather, and let him continue his job as Hongo's butler for generation... Due to the manga, Rihito has to pay for his grandfather's fault by his own life ( Of course, he is forced to become Mei's husband in the beginning but his feeling has changed, he became to love Mei, and want to by her side forever ... ) ... I think in the drama, Rihito doesn't know about it, so he can't quit his job to chase Mei because he think he can't make his grandfather be sad ... Kento was not supposed to be the best choice, so he wasn't raised as a butler, he became a butler because he wants to be near Mei, he doesn't want to separate... I think Mei has to come back to St Lucia to face with her own happiness ...she has to know everything and has to understand Rihito's feeling, and everything he has to suffer ...and try to help him out ... ...
Ive read in the ep07 review in tvaddict that...
Rihito left Lucia because her heart turned into black, he questioned himself as a butler since he couldn't prevent the deterioration of his mistress' personality. Also, he had no other way since he knew Lucia's affection for him yet he would not be able to reciprocate it. With that premise, Rihito- Lucia relationship is no more than unrequited love.
***if i misinterpreted...sorry in advance***

like others, I am also excited to hear Mei call Rihito by his name coz she didn't since #1 episode. Kento is worthy and can stand on the same ground w/ his older bro but then Mei-Rihito tandem has this some kind of spark.
Is Shinubo inlove with Lucia, he seemed upset when Rihito is back in Lucia's world? [just my observation]
Can't wait for ep08, hoping that Rihito will finally give a green signal on his love for Mei.

oooh for those who noticed the possible rose and mei father's twist thingymajiggy,great job!that thought didnt even cross my mind, i was just shocked at rose suddenly appearing in lucia's house/garden/plotting cave that i didnt even put 2 and 2 together!
as for the love triangle, i must admit that this is the first time im actually confused about my choice!and this is a big thing for me to say because i watch a whole slew of dramas (japanese korean taiwanese hindi english indonesian thai malay chinese and you name it i watch it) but this is really the first drama that makes me torn.being a big fan of hiro, initially i obviously rooted for rihito/mei.however, as the drama progressed, and particularly since kento is just giving me warm fuzzy feelings with his dedication to mei, i dont know what to think!
on the surface yes, i am still on for rihito/mei but the wonderful acting, especially the last scene with the beautiful scenery and kento's determination in protecting mei, my heart just went oh noooo!please dont make me choose uhuhu. kudos to mameshiba for his wonderful acting. he has won me over despite the fact that i hate his hair. its probably his cute suspenders and nice checkered shirt that finally did me in heh heh.
and that lucia woman is REALLY getting on my nerves!i really feel like taking one of those big plasticky flowers that she has on her head and stuffing it into her mouth.
and is it just me or are we seeing another layer of complexity to shinobu's character? maybe im reading too much but i wondered at his motivation behind stopping that psychotic tami from sticking a knife into her butler.and when he saw lucia-sama going all pyscho-googly over rihito in bed, was that a troubled look i saw on his face?hmmmmm..
uwah this drama is making me unable to lead a proper life!refreshing the subs page every chance i get (thank you kai and his team for the great subs), staring at the download bar and willing it to go faster, and rewatching it over and over on my mp4 (courtesy of timeless subs).speaking of timeless subs, i loveeee their extra asides to help us understand the drama better!and they even take the trouble to make it the same font/colour as the thing they are subbing (eg the note from mei to aoyama's mistress,the letter that rose was holding etc.)it is just soo pretty and i actually pause my video to read every single detail.thank you timeless subs for the kick ass quality! =)

ok, i need to see ep 7 with subs so i know more what i am talking about.
but this is the first time i am getting so addicted to a drama even though i was really worried when i finished dling ep1 and just saw the first few mins. thank god i did not deleted it straight away and gave it another chance with subs. even though my whole aim of watching was for hiro's sake only, but i could believe that they make a drama even crazier than hana kimi.
oh, and please don't remind me of kento's act. i am feeling for him more and more with each ep but i really don't want to betray Rihito. wilth all my love to hiro, but i really think takeru sato is doing an excellent job so far. maybe because his role is much more active in emotions than rihito. i am not sure.

i think your right..
i am attached to kento but i am definitly not for this pairing, because i don't have the feeling"they could be a good pair".. due to mei's reactions, the fact that kento is smaller than mei and the fact that they've known each other i just can't think of them as a pairing. I don't think they have this chemistry.
On the other hand.. what about rihito? It should be clear that they heading towards the mei/rihito pairing though i didn't get the real feeling yes. Indeed there is chemistry and things.. but there are things like: rihito is always missing the important and dangerous times - Rihito hasn`t shown a lot of emotions yet and so on and so on... i think the emotional string is missing but it's a logic thing that it's missing.. cause he's a butler.
Kento isn't a ready butler yet and he only entered because of mei. He didn`t really care about being a butler, so you can see his emotions.

This whole post pretty much sums up my feelings. This show is turning out much better than I thought it was. I stopped watching it like 5 minutes in and then decided to try again when I was really bored, and I am glad I got into it.Issy wrote: but this is the first time i am getting so addicted to a drama even though i was really worried when i finished dling ep1 and just saw the first few mins. thank god i did not deleted it straight away and gave it another chance with subs. even though my whole aim of watching was for hiro's sake only, but i could believe that they make a drama even crazier than hana kimi.

Also, I was all for mei x rihito from the start and I didn't even like Kento that much in any way, but he's been growing on me each episode and his scenes with mei are so cute, but I don't think I can turn my back on mei x rihito.
I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but it seems to me like Mei's friend Natsumi has a thing for Kento, so I have a feeling they might end up together. Natsumi is barely in this drama so I may imaging things, but in one of the earlier episodes she said something like "I don't think you're a leftover" to Kento and she always seems worried about him as though she likes him.

I noticed that right away. Natsumi seems to feel for Kento what Kento feels for Mei. She seems to be completely in love with him, and he has no clue. I do hope he notices, because I can't see Kento and Mei getting together, and I want Kento to find some kind of happiness.
In the anime.. Kento is really cooL.. He is the top of the class and not really clown.. Sato Takeru seems good-looking but I was wondering why the hair.. He should really be cooL like the Kento in anime.. argh.. I would be rooting for him also..
But, I'm Hiro's fan.. and I Like him.. though why the hair also.. its so roughly made...

I thought it was just a manga. Anyway, a lot of things seem to be different from the manga. Mei seems more likable here, but I agree that Kento is more mature; though, he's become more mature during the last three episodes.

My reasoning for Kento's ugly hair after episode 7 is he needs the hair to make his head look bigger. ESPECIALLY compared to Nana's head in the hug scene.
I think its really cute when Kento and Mei fights.
But I am all for Rihito and Mei, only because they look great together and chemistry is there.
Meanwhile, Kento is so tiny compare to Mei. I am not saying Takeru Sato is short, but Nana is just a giant compare to most Japanese girls

I finished ep 7 with sub ^__________^ ... really really awesome ^_____^ I think in this episode Rihito took a step ... he told Mei " before i realized, i'm not a butler anymore" ... is it a confession hehe I think that way ... because when he told her, he thought about the moment when he hugged her ... But he didn't dare to do anything so Mei left him ... That why the preview of ep 8 is so expected ... he say clearly about his feeling, not only in front of Mei but everybody ... there 4 episodes left, I hope at least Rihito hugs Mei one more time, and Mei call him Rihito... From the start, she didnt' call him by his name, always " oi" " ne" " ano ne" ... I don't care about the butler thing, please let them be together

i have to say that shinobu is still unsolved puzzle for me. i really can't figure out him or his personality. i still can't tell if he is good or evil (but as he is shiori's butler, i used to think of him just like her) but ep7 made me even more confused about him.

About the part of SHiori and Rose, I think this refers to Rose's fiance ... Shiori said " Shiawase dattan sesuka" And Rose told her " Watashi sou omotteta " ( In japanese, this refers to something happened in the past, so i think it must be Rose's fiance ) ... So I think Mei's father was the one who engaged with Rose but left her because of Mei's mother...

Obviously this series deserves a season 2.
This is on the level with Hana Yori Dango I feel as far as popularity. I really thought Hana Kimi was overrated and just focused on one plot (girl dressed up as a boy).
This show gives me the Hana Yori Dango feeling. Shocked to here there is only 3 episodes left.
Also, it'd be nice if Eikura Nana could have long hair like in Proposal Daisakusen. She looks much better with longer hair.

I feel the same too. This is one of the best japanese series in the last months. The character are well portrayed. Only 3 episodes is so little time to see how things will develop between Mei Rihito and Kento. Now everyone of them deserve a complete ending, not just a rushed or open one .Arsenal1508 wrote:Obviously this series deserves a season 2.

In the current state there won't be an happy ending if they're not show us more of Rihito's personality or the consistence of the love between him and Mei. Kento is more present than Rihito is and that is starting pissing me off. Too much open questions.
Now to compare Mei chan no Shitsuji with other drama i think that for me Hana Kimi had high potential but they ended it in a very childish way. The manga was much more better. Instead Hana Yori Dango drama was better than the manga.
Now i truly hope they don't decide an ending like Kimi wa Petto had. I know is a quite old drama now, but i haven't overcome this yet. When they made the drama , manga was not complete yet, and they decided to not finish the drama either! What a stupid ending!!!
I pray they don't kill Mei chan drama either since manga is not complet yet!!!I If not i'll hate it from episode 1
Issy, kanshu, and everyone in this discussion I totally love your comment. Make me feel more of every episode!!!
EDIT: now i've read on dramawiki( in the ratings table) that will be 11 episodes?

Right. there are still 4 more episodes left. Yay!
but i personally feel that this will be the only season they are gonna make. I love this drama to death but I'm not sure what the plot of the season 2 should be.
Since after reading the manga up to volume 8. . .
Might be a major spoliler to some other people.

I would love to see a second season come to life....I don't believe they have enough time to explain exactly why was Rihito engaged to Shiori or why does Grampa Hongo(don't now his whole name ) want to hook Rihito up with Mei ( I remember him saying something in the first epi about Rihito sleeping with Mei )
Is it true? 11 eps? i am over the moon.
first of, i think that hana kimi was over-rated too. it is because it had more high profile actors than MnS. not that i think of these actors any less than hana kimi cost. but if really look at HK cost, you know what i am talking about.
thankfully, hiro was one of them. but this time he is playing the main character. to me, there is no way of any comparison between HN and MnS at all. the first one dragged too long and as someone above said, it had only one plot and you could have guess where is heading to.
with mei chan, even though like hana kimi was based on a manga too, but they have made so much changes that it still keep you wondering about the ending. MnS with all its craziness (and sometimes even more crazy than HK to the point of being totally unbelieveable) still have one decent story line that keeps interested.
at the moment, MnS is in the same level of popularity (for me) with HYD. i am getting more and more convinced that it might be a S2 for it too. but i am not sure how i am going to react to it. they still can end the story perfectly but it needs clever writing and not getting fans disappointed. sometimes this is very hard thing to do. (specially with the whole unfinished managa business)
plus, second season does not always gurantee sucess too. it can be too dragy (like HYD S2 got in some eps and got fans frustrated) and pointless so it can ruin S1 reputation too.
now that there are 4 more eps left, i still think they can do perfect job if they decided to end this drama just by one season. all they have to do is to get to serious parts more with least attention to side characters.
as isaid, i still i dont know how i feel about a 2nd season. when think for sure, if there is one, i can't wait until it is aired.

I hope they'll it wrap up in one season. I'll rather watch a SP than a 2nd season of this. I guess it's a good thing that MnS is in the same league as HYD rather than HK. I like the manga version of HK than the live action. There's not enough intensity to the story in HK to make it enjoyable in the live action.

People keep talking about a second season or an SP, but are the ratings good enough? I know some shows can get, at least, a SP with rating that are in the 15% range, but could Mei-chan? I do think that two or three episodes is not enough time to wrap everything up nicely, and I would love to see the crazy girls and their butlers (as well as more M/K/R), but. . . is it possible?

here is the Rating. as you see is not that good but it's not bad either.
as i said, i too confused about S2 and if you ask me, i do want it to end nicely in one season. i just don't have enough patience to wait for S2.
but i do think that they can rap it up nicely if they start from ep8. if it is really 11 ep series, then they nearly have half of what passed to spend on finishing the story. it is not that bad. i too want my sidedish of watching all adorable people there. is 4 eps not enough to have a perfect ending for this drama that is not rushed too? i think it all depends on the writer. one thing for sure, Tuesdays are getting very interesting to me. the problem lies when i see each ep on tuesday or wednesday night because rest of week days seems too long.

As it stands up to episode seven, the overall ratings for the show is 13.8%. Shibatora, which aired a couple of seasons ago on the same day, same time, same network, got a 12.5% and is getting a SP, so a SP is not totally out of the question.
I'm not sure what the writer has written before, but I agree that a lot of it depends on what happens in the next four episodes. Things can more or less be wrapped up nicely. I just don't want a huge open-ended thing, that usually happens for shows based on yet unfinished mangas.

It's interesting to read people's views on the drama.
About the triangle K/M/R, I prefer M-R rather than M-K, probably just because they look more compatible with each other. (No offend to Takeru's fans.... Nana is just too tall for a normal Japanese actress.... but she was paired up with Hamada Gaku in Proposal Daisakusen, so who knows what producers would do )
Well, but according to my experience with J-drama, I should not keep my hope too high.... The lead girl would end up with someone she knows for a long time or someone who stays beside her through all hardships. And that's not likely to be the first one she has a crush on....Just look at the whole thing so far, R, despite being there most of the time, hasn't got much development yet. On the other hand, K's character is really well developed, I mean, becoming more mature and much more interactions with M....
Another experience is that they tend to let us know that the guy and the girl fall for each other but make them stay apart without saying a clear confession or even worse, leave story open-ended for the fans to wondering who the girl/guy gonna end up with. So, I think they may make some of the fan-girls go crazy by not pairing up any one at all at the end and let M live together with both R and K.
That's my view, I hope it contain no spoiler.
@ fragolina: they always put an 11-episode table on wikidrama first, since it is normal for a j-drama to have 11 eps. They only change it when the producers announce the exact number. And that (to have more or less) depends a lot on how popular the drama is....A clear example would be Kami no Shizuku.
