My Annette batch torrents released, and hiatus

Batch torrents for My Annette have been released.  There are two more version 2 encodes in this batch torrent, namely episodes 3 and 21.

If you already have the episodes, please seed the torrents if you can.

In other news, I will be on vacation (going to an anime convention) for the next few days, so the group will be in hiatus until Monday, August 19th.  Afterwards, Lucy-May of the Southern Rainbow will take over My Annette's slot, and it will be our main focus.

Normally, I would be deciding on another series to replace Lucy-May's slot.  However, due to the fact that I don't have as much energy to do these things, I will be postponing my decision on what to do with that until after my vacation.

My Annette Episode 48 released!

Lucien turned away, because there were tears in his eyes. He had been honored above everybody--his sin was forgiven and forgotten forever--Dani could walk just as though he had never fallen.

As Lucien turned he noticed that the almond tree on the platform had burst into flower at the top. Yesterday there was nothing but its bare branches; but spring had proved too strong for it, and straight from the bare wood had come the starry pink blossoms.

The winter was over and gone, the flowers had come to the north--and the birds had begun their singing.

- Treasures of the Snow, Chapter 26




The final episode pretty much neatly wraps up the story.  Everything in Rossiniere is back the way it is now that Dani's leg is completely healed.  Everyone is now contemplating their future lives, as if the accident had never occurred.

As per my usual practice, I would like to make some concluding remarks.

This project has been one of the most difficult projects we have ever worked on.  Between my having health problems throughout a substantial portion of this project, staff scheduling, and the sheer emotional strength of the storyline and the faithfulness of its presentation, progress on this project was very slow and difficult.  As I mentioned in my introductory post on this series, even though the series is adapted from a primarily Christian novel, the lessons that we can take away from the series of forgiveness and patience are lessons that all faiths and creeds teach.

I would like to personally thank everyone who have assisted us in making this project possible.  Again, the sheer number of folks that have contributed to this project in some way or fashion is too numerous to count.  It didn't matter what kind of obscure material that we needed help on, such as German language translation, or obscure Biblical references, someone stepped up and made this project better in the end.

I would also like to thank all of our supporters for sticking with us thick and thin, and it is for you all that we finally finish this series.  The series was definitely difficult to work with, but it was all well worth it in the end, for the storyline and for everyone who wanted this series to be subbed.

In this episode, Lucien arrives in Montreux just in time to catch Dr. Givet just about to leave for the train station.  He comes back with Lucien to the village of Rossiniere on both the sincerity of Lucien's request, and the fact that Lucien's request had a few aspects to it that he wanted to clear up.

However, Lucien had three problems to deal with: how was he going to get the money to pay for the doctor, how was he going to get to the doctor in the snowstorm, and how was he going to convince the doctor to come back to the village to treat Dani?  The episode answers all three questions.
