Tsugunaga Momoko "Momo Only" Subtitle Release


Tsugnaga Momoko is a very special idol. In a sea of unique personalities and styles Momoko is H!P’s Lion Fish—Even when compared to the menagerie, she remains highly unusual, and thus oddly fascinating.

Momoko combines the usual button cuteness and constant pleasantness of your average idol with something more; Momoko is actually a Momoko wota. She aspires to be the personification of the idol fantasy. To be the only idol any wota could ever need. And if she occasionally descends into self-parody because of it, so much the better. In fact, it’s clearly intentional. Watch as Momoko claims every failure as victory. Watch as she turns embarrassment into personal achievement. Watch as she denies all her vices. And know that it is all part of the show.

No H!P idol works as hard as Momoko to fascinate or entertain. So, even though Momoko is not my favorite idol ever, or even my favorite current idol, there’s no other girl I’d rather watch in a solo DVD. If you give this release a try, I think you’ll agree.

Release includes both the main video and the extra "making of" track from the same DVD that chronicles the shooting of her Momo no Mi photobook.
========================================

This release is a bit of a format experiment for the group. Normally our releases are encoded at 720x400 just to simplify things and ensure that everyone viewing it gets the same experience. However, this release has been encoded at 720x480 with the anamorphic tags left intact. This means it will display at 853x480 when you view it.

So basically, I’d like to know if people would prefer this format for future releases or if they’d rather just keep rocking at 720x400. Feedback on this specific subject would be welcome.

Thanks you for this release! I personally would like to see the format encoded at 720x480 anamorphic. As a huge Suzuki Airi fan, any chance or plans on subbing Pure Blue? I'm really looking for to °C-ute's Cyotto Ichi Kyoku Kiite Kudasai Vol.1&2

^Last I heard Pure Blue was being done by Hyakupa. But they've shown little sense of urgency on that project.

Thank you for this great release. Momo is hilarious!
I have no input on the encode, I never notice much difference between different formats/sizes.

However, I find that the audio of the first file (A) in the XviD version is a bit out of sync. Have tried it in WMP, MPC and VLC, all with the same result. No biggie, I just set the audio time shift to -1500 ms. And Momoko is certainly worth it.

Thanks again for a wonderful release!

^ Word. This was an issue just for the XviD encode, not the H.264 encode.
By accident, I applied the delay meant only for the "making of" video to both videos on the XviD encode.
I've corrected the issue and uploaded it to the tracker again. Now it works fine.

Or maybe that sorta elusive (if not buried on somewhere) Airi's Classic perhaps?
Thanks for this release.
