Commie's is much lighter, especially on certain scenes. The contrast is much lower as well.

Commie's version of Horizon was just fine, the only thing that could possibly be "wrong" with it is that you hadn't updated CCCP for 10bit yet.

Probably one of the more "extreme" examples, they look just fine. Commies is definitely of lesser contrast. Had I not seen horriblesub's version first, I probably would not have noticed the difference anyway.

yea I sorted it I didnt really bother to check what the problem was since I had both.

(Yuru yuri deja vu) + Show Spoiler [Hayate no Gotoku 339] +I thought we would be continuing with the Izumi arc. I was tricked! At least it had a pretty profound message in it. The metaphor of money and life was pretty good imoimo. Also, there was a cameo of Chiharu in zettai ryouiki. She needs more screen/page time. So does Aika.  Except honestly it isn't all that profound a message, nor is it something we want Hayate to deliver as a manga. Then there is the fact that we have to put up with freaking Nagi. Hm. Well, I've heard it before but I liked the execution here. Maybe I'm just being too forgiving because they actually have Chiharu more than one panel. But yes. Too much Nagi recently. You'd think I would be more forgiving because Maria-san proves to be awesome as usual, except that should be the standard and not the cameo appearance or punchline. Chapter is just so out of norm in terms of the general style of the manga that it is hard not to consider it as a filler, and when the supposed MC is getting used as the focus of a filler chapter...yeah, you get the idea. EDIT - Hmm, Hentai Ouji scans coming out pretty fast, maybe I'll get pressured into reading the vol I don't want to read. I just wanna see more Hinaemon and A-tan. A sulking Nagi doesn't really make that great a chapter. I'm surprised you're not so spoilt and self-centred about your own manga :o Happy Birthday Nagisama~ lol, thanks. My name came from Kannagi, not Hayate, but enough people kept mistaking my name for that which got me to read/watch it.

The anime managed to cover a pretty big chunk of it anyway even though it was a bit different.
I wasnt a huge fan though, I went for it after the anime the art was a bit amateurish. May have been on purpose but it didnt sit well with me, that and Nana also being incomplete was like, w/e the art was meant to be true to the original manga but yeah I guess, though shame we'll never see how the manga will end I thought that art style was pretty typical of shojo manga/anime. Regarding the ending, I read it was from a general outline of what the author had planned for the ending prior to her death. Which was aired on the anime yes, but the manga was never completed

Hmm, thanks 
I generally don't care or notice, unlike the people at say, bakabt, but this one was noticable for whatever reason. Probably because I was looking for something due to the video quality post, instead of just watching whatever tv download releases each week with varying fansub groups due to availability or whatever.

So, with 10bit does anyone know what I can do for my PS3 server? I'm assuming that's the reason I've been getting so many "corrupted" files from my downloads.

Sakai and Musashi onboard the Musashino, during the chase scene.
Judgement, 10 years ago, when one Sakai-sama split off, Mikawa, which had just finished converting their temporary alliance with P.A.Oda into a formal one, was forbidden by the Holy Union's meeting from bringing Musashi into the Mikawa duchy, and communication with the rest of the world was limited to just the executive committee. That means right now, the Central Authority is a Black Box to us. The head of Mikawa's Matsudaira household, as the ruler of the Far East as acknowledged by the Holy Union, maintains their land based on their acknowledgement as ruler, so while the Holy Union has technically given them the authority to act as "the window" between the Far East and the Holy Union- Lord Motonobu of the Matsudaira household, based on his formal alliance with P.A.Oda, which is half-withdrawn from the Holy Union, can be determined to have a rather unique and independent status. The Matsudaira household appears to be replacing most of the non-inner-circle people with automata, and because they've built the factory "New Nagoya Castle" right on top of the earthen furnace, directly against the Holy Union's orders, their city is teeming with abominations, and is therefore extremely unstable. Please heed this to the best you can, so that nothing significant happens. -That is all.
Wow, that's right on top of the forbidden land. I don't wann ago. ... Man, they've been ignoring me for like 10 years so why're they calling me back now, after I left them?
Judgement, perhaps it is a reunion. Of the Matsudaira Four Kings, whom were supporting Matsudaira until 10 years ago. --Regardless, please be careful. Mikawa's leader, Matsudaira "Yes Man" Motonobu-sama has created a gift to Oda in the form of New Nagoya Castle on top of an earthen furnace. Musashi is Mikawa's leader Motonobu's personal belonging, but re-building of its core facilities as well as the giant repair-work 10 years ago both took place after we left Izumo, so I am no longer an automata that has loyalty to Lord Motonobu. This time we are again re-supplying as a neutral country entering the Far East, and because their civilians also don't seem to have any intent to interact with us, we are also only able to go out as far as Sekijo. -That is all.
So, what do you think, as "Musashi"-san
Judgement, compared to last year I can determine that it is quite flamboyant. In terms of physical quality I believe their destructiveness is gone up, and from a civilian perspective their "bothersomeness" as well as their "spectator value" has gone up-
Personally?
As "Musashi" is a collective entity from the multiple Musashi ships, along with the fact that I am not a person, I cannot pass "personal" judgement. -That is all.
Then how about as the Musashi fleet?
Judgement, I would say they are the best over the past ten years, as according to the records kept since the repairs. Given that we are unable to teach war, as per the Holy Union's orders, and as a student body that cannot field a combat unit beyond that of the self defense force, relative to other combat units- *thinks* if they are able to pull their individual strengths together, they might be able to hold up. -That is all. That was the marker closest to Mikawa. After this Musashino's bridge has received a response, we will enter an information-class stealth current and fly over the residential area, and arrive at Mikawa's air facility. -That is all.
Musashi can only hover above the horizons of other countries, under their observation. ...and if our presented flight-path doesn't stay over the markers, other countries are able to take this as "invasion" and immediately receive firing permission from the Holy Union... What a pain in the ass, if "Convergent World Collapse" causes the Far East and countries from the Convergent Worlds to overlap. Right over this divine providence we'd have a Warring States Era and World Chaos led by the Church Uprisings at the same time. Lead by the game guide to the world, the Testament that's guiding us through the former Earth's history. The Oda household that drives the Warring States Era conquered the Murasai rebels centered around Osman to strengthen P.A.Oda eight years ago, after someone had grabbed Nobunaga's name. Then they half-withdrew from the Holy Union. ... Nobunaga avoided stepping out into the open because he was afraid of the Holy Union plotting an assassination against him to move history on, but they didn't stop conquest of other countries, and became a Demon King feared by the world that's unstoppable by mere assassination. ... 160 years ago, the other countries probably felt that if they created the civilian land Musashi and shoved the Far East's civilians onto it, they'd be able to indirectly control the Far East, but now the Matsudaira household, including the Musashi, has formulated an alliance with the Oda household, as per history, and the Musashi has been able to avoid control from other countries.
However, According to the Testament the world is about to end. -That is all.
-- the Testament, which was designed to automatically update 100 years of history by synchronizing with destiny, had stopped updating 100 years ago, and as such there is no history written beyond next year. The final notation is the West Farren Meeting, in other words, this year, in 1648, when the meeting ends October 24th, is the last historical notation. ... As such, [we] believe that this meeting which will take place on October 24 will "acknowledge the extinction of mankind due to the end of the world" and will work toward the end of the world next year. -That is all.
Which is why the different countries are currently seriously looking into why destiny is ending this year, but no one's figured anything out, ... and P.A.Oda is probably the only one that has come up with any sort of plan, the "Creation Plan," and that's why they're recruiting people. But the "Creation Plan" is still mostly in its "let's figure shit out for this" stage anyways.
Currently the world looks like it's functioning as per normal, but it's definite that the Testament, which has synchronized with destiny, has stopped updating, and various places around the world are overflowing with abominations. The third-year apricot-class Asama-sama, she's be able to enter into a high-class contract with her temple this year, but the flight-class and high-speed-movement class monsters that are needed for high-class fire support were supposed to have become extremely rare over the past ten years. Similarly the trendy Hyakkiyakou and Kamikakushi can be attributed to the earthen veins losing their stability, but these earthen veins are directly related to destiny because of their stature as corridors for the control of all things. In other words, it can be theorized that if destiny is to disappear in the future, it would be because the earthen veins are losing their balance. -That is all.
So, there're plenty of reasons to believe destiny is about to end?
Judgement. I have received reports of abominations all over the world. For example, VIPs around the world have suddenly disappeared in Kamikakushi, some villages diappear from the map entirely, and in Exagon Francaise various prophets attemped to look into the future and lost their souls. In the New Continent the frontier populace has reported that their clairvoyant tablets have all disappeared. -That is all.
... Lively.
Judgement. Currently, the number of these have risen, and are spreading further out. It is like abominations are flooding out into the world, toward the end of destiny. -That is all.
I see. However, Musashi-san, you're surprisingly knowledgeable about this. -Hobby? Mania? Or are you just an otaku?
The answer would be "boredom." -That is all.

Kind soul care to spoil ending of Spice and Wolf? The storys epilogue ending (whole story, not anime). I did saw the japanese magazinepicture which spoiled a lot, but I'd like to have more specific knowledge of ending. :/ If anyone know where I can watch/read it would be awesome too.
I just hate when this kind of anime/manga gets stuck in my head and I don't know how it ends. ARGH. I am really going to get bitter taste from it.
But the ending just seems different from the japanese magazines pic.
e: happy birthday Nagisama =)

Ryndika, not sure what you want exactly, but + Show Spoiler [Spice & Wolf] +Horo and Lawrence hook up and Lawrence open up a shop in the north
Uta, look up history -.-
Edit as you see necessary, adding terms as I go along. Some smaller notes here too. Matsudaira Motonobu is one of Tokugawa Ieyasu's names (Went from Matsudaira Motonobu -> Matsudaira Motoyasu -> Tokugawa Ieyasu. Family name change was a thing from that time to claim heritage from earlier eras, specifically the Minamoto/Genji or the Heike). Part about Murasai rebels and Osman should be referring to the Ottoman empire. West Farren = the Peace of Westphalia. Hyakkiyakou and Kamikakushi might need a translation but a bit annoying to do, so let's settle with a phenomenon where people get spirited away for kamikakushi.
Musashi can only hover above the horizons of other countries you meant borders? we see horizon everywhere it is almost hard to tell what it is supposed to be zz

Most shit still works, but now I'm having trouble with 720. So really... who is using the PS3 Media Server and is working around these issues? 'Cause there is no way I'm going back to watching crap on my computer when I can watch it on my couch on my 47" TV

You can still watch it on your couch. Or even while laying on your bed. With a computer.

the first episode of Horizon confused me a lot. At first I was not sure if I should just forget the show as some weird fighting anime but after reading southlights post the first episode actually made some sense.
I spend some time abroad. So I didnt watch anime. Which shows seem to be worth looking into this season? So far I only saw Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai and Horizon
