Soichiro posted the following on Chihiro’s webpage:
P.S. If you’re planning to troll me or Chihiro because of this post, don’t bother. gg already did it. It’s only funny once. ;D
Soichiro, not cool bro, not cool. We know you’re not really in debt with your university and that you’re actually trying to scam downloaders for money to go to Japan. Please don’t call us trolls when we’re trying to help you. We even drew up a PDF describing the deal.

Earlier today, fellow fansubber Soichiro posted a cry for help on Shinsen’s webpage.

As many of you know, I’ve been with Shinsen for three and a half years now, and I’ve taken part in dozens of projects. However, I currently find myself at a difficult and desperate point. I currently owe my university $2127 for this semester, and if I don’t pay it off by November 20th, I won’t be able to register for classes for next semester. I’ve maxed out my government financial aid, I’ve spent all the money in my bank account toward tuition, I can’t get any private loans because of my family’s terrible credit history, and my parents can’t help me because they don’t have any money to spare after paying their bills. So, as a last-ditch effort, I’m asking you, the loyal supporters of Shinsen, to help me in my hour of need. Every little bit that you can chip in would help. If you are willing and able to help, please send your donations to my paypal, kaiichisoichiro@sbcglobal.net. Thank you very much, all of you.Yours Truly,
Soichiro
gg has always been an innovator in the fansub world: h264, mkv, breaking VLC, commercials, full softsubs, “video and anime quality correlative encoding” – we’ve done it all. But recently, we’ve been in a slump asking ourselves, “Hey, what do we do next?” After seeing Soichiro’s post, we immediately knew where to take fansubbing next: Buying other groups. Thus, gg staff has gotten out our bottle caps and lemonade stand money. One of our Senior VP’s, `House, would like to buy 51% ownership of Shinsen Subs for $2000. As part of the deal, Freya should be made founder of #shinsen-subs on Rizon, your domain should be transferred to us, and we want your MBS capper(s).
Please contact us on Rizon if you’d like to discuss the matter further.

The gg board of directors fully supports our CEO and president miasmacloud in this venture.
