I started torrenting recently, and found myself using the same fansub (Erai-raw) for my shows. I tried a different fansub and found that I couldn’t even watch the video due to the video freezing constantly and the sub track crashing my program.
So who is your favorite or most reliable group? DDL or torrent? Why are they your favorite?
I don’t think Erai-raws can be called fansubbing group as, from what I can remember (and from what their name suggests), they don’t do their own translations or typesetting. SubsPlease does fairly acceptable typesetting using official subs, however their file sizes are pretty large (same as Erai) and aren’t of highest quality. GSK, MTBB and Okay-Subs do nice typesetting with reasonable file size and better video quality and add chapters.
If available, I prefer fansubbing groups which do their own translations, such as GJM, Kaleido or Asenshi. Their translations are often much better than the official ones and they put a lot more work into quality assurance.
For your problems with watching some groups it might be an issue with your player. Try using something like mpv or check the tips here.
Oh whoops, I’m not sure then what uploaders would be called then, but I did know they use fansub groups and saw different uploaders use different groups. But worth it to look into finding a source with those translations!
