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.
Approved.
I think I have lost some respects for you guys.
why? that’s how this world work
100% approved

THIS IS GG!!! —->KICK :P
Dear gayguys,
We will sell you the IRC channel and domain, but our cappers (hypothetically, if we had cappers) are worth far more than $2000. We hope you will be willing to renegotiate, or accept the IRC channel and domain name for the previously decided price of $2000.
Love,
Soichiro
Dear Shitsen,
Without MBS cappers, the value of 51% of your stock plummets to $10.
ヽ( >∀<)ﾉ AHAHA AHAHA AHAHAHAHA
I think i have regained some respect for you guys, just when I thought i have seen it all.
Gotta loev gg
Have the Boards of Directors of both companies approved this transaction yet?
LOL Breaking VLC!
lulz
Soichiro, you feeded the alien trollpilots with Whiskas, and I can’t stop lmfao on your stupidity. Thx for the drama guys, love y’all
cried MANLY tears you guys are true bros
ahahahahahaaha ROFL
I think you should wait for Shitsen-Chihiro merger 1st then BUY IT! LMAO
9001% untroll? fuck man!
@Soichiro: Dude, work instead of shitsubbing.
Wait, wait, wait. Before you go ahead with this – dare I say – foolish plan, should you not first consider the VALUE of the assets in question? If you inspect them I’m sure you’ll quickly come to agree that Shinsen’s net worth is substantially less than the proposed 2K. you ARE running a business, not a charity, are you not?
gg needs a economist who knows what he’s doing.
we value the brand name of SHS, like microsoft buying their way into the vidya market, we’re buying our way towards the top of the fansub market
not to mention we have the capital too
haha you even opened comments to spread your bullshit even farther :P
Lets see you answer the accusation of being a troll with accusing the post you replied to with being a troll… you realize that automatically makes you a troll also?
Slapping it up on front page news are not really proposing a deal, just so you know.
wahahaha you guys are even worse than Coalguys ever were.
(btw love your subs)
thank you very much
If you can’t afford to pay for this semester of school, maybe you should take a semester off to work and get some money to pay your own damned bills. Just maybe. Especially if you’ve got enough free time to be spending it doing fansubbing.
Also <3 the GG and DB heterosexual love.
gg = full of awesome
mmm boy i do love me some callout threads

@Shuffleblade: Hush, adults speaking… only speak if someone says hey kid…
@GG,Chihiro, DB, Shinsen Subs
Listen, I got a better deal for all of you… Here is how it will work… I will put up $25k but yall will only owe back $10k GG/DB will own Shinsen/Soichiro while I will merge GG/DB/Chihiro which yall will get a paycheck but under the table cause your not supposed to get paid for this. Yall can use Shinsen however yall want to. My other requirements are as follows:
2 nights with Kristen
A BluRay copy of Phantoms
3 nights with any 5 anime women of my choosing
Pack of Little Debbies Powder donuts
1 Roundtrip ticket to the anime dimension
Shinsen’s IRC: Im turning that into a Gentlemens Club/Strip Club
Now if you like the deal let me know… only thing is if Soichiro dont pay the money back things gotta get messy… I’ll have my vampire ninja bunnies, my eye patch wearing zombie samurai ferrets, and my werewolf mystical theksie(warhammer made of troll testicles, and ogre penis) carrying roach beat his face for a couple hours… followed by having a couple hentai tentacle monsters dropped of at his house with Ron Jeremy streaming it on youtube… well let me know whats good I got the loot so hit me up
Oh as a matter of face, I will say forget the 3 nights with any 17 anime women, and the copy of Phantoms, and I will throw in a extra 2Gs just make sure that every anime yall sub I get a VHS copy mailed to me on Saturdays, make sure its got a label too cant ahve that getting mix up with my best of 80s porn…
I am amused.
I love GG just for this sort of stuff. Also if you really did buy shinsens subs that would be hilarious.
SOICHIRO I WANT TO HELP YOU. I WILL GIVE YOU $10,000 TO GET YOUR BACK LIFE ON TRACK.
I ASK ONLY A NOMINAL FEE OF $250 TO START TRANSACTION. PLEAS EMAIL ME YOUR PHONE NUMBER.
You guys almost convinced me to go back to irc, oh, gg.
@DAN MUSA
LOL
@gg
pricelesss…
WHY 51% OWNERSHIP?!?!?!?! U SHOULD TAKE 99.9% OF THE OWNERSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!
I think this joint venture is in Chihiro’s best interest to accept. gg will take a weak and dying company and turn it into a high quality highly profitable enterprise. And with Dattebayo taking part I think, ladies and gentlemen, we can expect a new era in fansub lead by other than our beloved gg, which holds a fanbase no one can match.
