Youtube took it down after a complaint from Wedge Link, the producer of Fifth Stage. There is nothing we can do about it.

Yeah, they're on top of it pretty good now. We'll have to rely on hardsubbed torrents unless someone plans to make softsub files out of the subs we use on Youtube.

Maybe upload onto Dailymotion? I see a lot off that's taken off youtube, but still on that one.

interestingly enough, some LQ raw versions of 5 & 6 are already on there:

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xwpypg_yy...=2#.UPO9jWed7Y8

sadly no sub

i don't think dailymotion supports any kind of annotations or "subtitles" like youtube does anyway.

i wouldn't hold your breath until a release from one of the subbing groups manages to make it's way up there, but you'll find that in this thread before anywhere else, i'm sure.

Because there are no subs. We will alert everyone as soon as subs are out. So until then, just as another reminder, asking for raws or subs will earn you an actual warning and your account post-restricted for a week.

If youtube took down the vids you can always either go to anime44.com or zeroanime.net to watch the raws

You know, normally I would just say ">streaming" and call it a post, but given the abundance of ridiculously inflated upscales for torrent, I can almost understand the decision to stream.

Still, we have a properly sized DDL for both episodes at the top of this thread, so you may as well get those. The quality can only either be as good or better than it is on Youtube (I'm not how the compression used in converting the video to FLV affects the quality of these files, since they're already poor to begin with.)

If, however, the quality on Youtube is the same as with these files and you really want to watch the episodes now without waiting for the HD rips, I'd recommend streaming for the first time in my life.

Chinese subs for episode 5 is available for those who understand chinese (like me!)

Thank you tzhongyan and Kyonpalm for bringing this to my attention! I'll translate them tonight.

yay, tomorrow i can finally watch episode 5! thanks dude!

haven't posted here in a while but i have been aware of stage 5 cus of you guys. thanks for that too.

initial d interest seems to have died down or it was always such a cult thing (although i guess most anime is (except dbz)).

re-watching initial d live action movie currently..on YOUTUBE..haha.

Some updates.. I can't finish it tonight. I had to take some rest... too tired. I am about 1/3 through Episode 5 and it's very hard to translate as there are more and more technical terms. I'll have this done as soon as I can. Going to get some sleep now.

No worries! Please take your time.

We all appreciate what your doing. A few days won't matter compared to the other fansubs which will take week again.

Take your time.

I don't post often despite how long I've been a member, but I do want to show my appreciation. Thanks again for all the hard work Perry!

I also want to thank everyone who is involved in these subs. The work you do is amazing. Keep up the good work.

We have so many members on here that we rarely see, it's really nice seeing them online giving thanks to Perry and everyone involved doing the subs.

I would like to give my thanks as well and keep up the great work!

I wanna add my thanks as well for all the hard work

thanks perry for even wanting to sub it for the community

Can't wait for your subs, Perry. Much appreciated!

From,
Another n00b that doesn't know you!

Thank you guys , and keep up the good work

Here it is: Right Click and Save As

This is just the .ass file that you have to use the existing LQ raw and add it as a subtitle file. It'll sync up. I originally planned to release the hardsub version but it's taking a bit longer than I thought. My goal is to release the subtitles as soon as I can. So feel free to do the re-encoding with whatever raws that are out there. It should sync up perfectly if the raw is based on the original 40mb file. Please, PLEASE credit IDW Fansubs along with a link to either the forums: idforums.net or the facebook group: facebook.com/go2id if you decide to release the re-encode version.

A lot of people took the soft sub we did for Episode 3 & 4 and upload them onto advertisement-laden anime streaming sites that is for profit, all the while without giving us any credit (even though those translation were terrible.) Please be considerate and share this for free. Don't upload them onto sites that can make profit out of the views. Thanks.

Thanks Perry. It looks like it's working pretty good for me.

Great work, thanks!

Yay, Kamiari-Raws released another batch of upscales, this time with "slightly reduce noise"
