GX 49 Animation Fix: Burstlady’s Strapping Issue #4792 (WIP here)

Alright, managed to get this one fixed! At least, hoping I did so, anyway lol.  Once I added her shoulder strap to the one later frame and connected it with the cuff on her arm, I had to go and keyframe it along to the zoom-out that happens here, and then try to work it into her fade-in where I just gradually increased the opacity of the frame.  I’m hoping it’s not noticeable since you sorta see her original shoulder cuff when going frame-by-frame, but it seems to blend in well enough here (plus, I’m hoping the subtitle gets more attention, lol).

GX 49 WIP: A Strapping Situation #4792

Trying to get things ready so I can work on 47-49 together, and came upon this to tack onto my to-fix list; Burstlady can’t catch a break… Curious what folks might think of this edit; I took inspiration from Burstlady’s pose in the ED and @se-to-oh‘s attempt a while back for this.  I extended her cuff to link it with the strap, then added a few shading details; I don’t think it looks too bad! Though the challenge will be to work it into the zooming shot here and tweaking the transparency accordingly…

Also included the dub’s edit because THEY DIDN’T EVEN TRY to keep the color scheme.  But at least they kinda had the right idea with the strap??

Laughing because I’m preparing to see what I’ll be translating in GX 47, I see this from Samejima who’s packing away some top-secret training docs, and you’ll notice the text on top of the front sheet saying “[For?] Your Eyes Only] in Frame 1; the “Your” text on the left by his right hand just vanishes by the third shot somehow after 1-3 frames

QUALITY

(The full text [bottom text is already in the bag here] reads “YOUR EYES ONLY / TOP SECRET / Duel Academia Training Curriculum / Academic Year 2006″)

also samejima why did you think a potted plant would keep the Spirit Gate keys safe

GX 39: Put On Your Pants and [Corrected] Jacket

Went back to fix an error I missed in GX 39 that @se-to-oh‘s #gx-errors tag reminded me of, lol. Within a frame of Shou walking up to everyone and turning to Chick here, the white in his jacket’s chest area vanishes; it’s there as he’s turning, then suddenly red the rest of the shot.  Just recolored it and mixed it into the video; a simple fix.  Unsurprisingly, the dub didn’t catch this.  

Re-encoding the episode now and will post it later on NAC, in case you’d like an updated hardsub and/or DVDRip! While there, I also revised Armed Dragon LV7′s attack name back to Armed Banisher thanks to Duel Links sorta confirming that spelling; I’ll be revising episode 26 as well for this.
