Hello!! Long-time reader, first-time poster, I'm sure you know the drill...
I'll just get down to it: I can't be the only one that's been dying to watch the Tamagotchi (2009-2015) anime from start to finish for years, but can't seem to find a single source for subtitled episodes, or even raw episodes anywhere online (yeah, there's a couple episodes here and there, but no one seems to have all 271 episodes).
I think the main reason all requests and attempts to have the anime subtitled have fizzled out is because of the lack of a single, high-quality source that can provide them to those who could make it happen.
Well, I've decided to take matters into my own hands here: I've ordered the first 35 DVDs that make up the 'Tamagotchi!' anime, which include the first 143 episodes of the series, and I'm already making arrangements to get 'Yume Kira Dream', 'Miracle Friends', and 'Go-Go Tamagotchi!' DVDs (as well as the un-dubbed movies) some time before June. I have the necessary (region-unlocking) tools to rip these DVDs in order to get the raw, high quality episodes and share them.
With this in mind, once I gather all of these files together, do you think there could finally be hope in requesting a complete English fansub of the series from a subbing group?
Or possibly, do you think we could try and make one ourselves? I sure as heck couldn't do translations, but I can do some of the more technical things, which is why I'm here in the first place I guess.
In any case, I hope doing this will bring some semblance of hope to anyone like me that's still holding onto hope for ever watching this show, I'll keep you posted as my packages come in!
