Mahoromatic Update

I haven't had an opportunity to finalize those subtitles yet...school is really sucking the life out of me. But to appease those of you who have been asking questions, here is a list of the edits made to the first movie. It comprises episodes 1-7. The rationale for editing was to cut out any scene that was (a) redundant, (b) pointless, or (c) used just to fill in the running time.

All episodes:
-- Opening removed (except the first)
-- Eyecatch removed.
-- Closing removed. (except the last)

Ep 1
-- All references to Mahoro's shortened lifespan removed.

Ep 2
-- Miss Shikijo's explanation in the teacher's lounge removed.
-- Angry students becoming winded after chasing Suguru removed.

Ep 3
-- Weird bird scene removed.
-- Suguru's scene hanging out with Miyuki's family removed.
-- The family father thinking of Suguru as his own son removed.
-- Mahoro's inner reflection on the end of her life and Suguru possibly hating her removed.

Ep 4
-- Friends calling one another on the phone scene removed.
-- Human military removed, so now the Crab Robot is a part of Saint, and not a mere accident.

Ep 5
-- Beginning scene of Vesper discussing the previous episode against the crab robot removed.
-- All references to Mahoro's shortened lifespan removed.

Ep 6
-- All references to Mahoro's shortened lifespan removed.
-- Old men complementing Mahoro, and remarking how hot she looks removed.

Ep 7
-- Suguru's weirded out face looking at the sky removed.
-- Added title card "To Be Continued."

Run time: 2 hr. 10 min. 34 sec.

Mahoromatic Rebuild

Coming soon! Another one of Gainax's often overlooked shows is Mahoromatic: Automatic Maiden, and it's sequel Something More Beautiful. Personally, I found the shows to be amazing, EXCEPT the ending was completely terrible. I couldn't think of a worse way to end a series. It was almost as if they were intentionally trying to piss off the fans. Well, I've decided to create a rebuild of Mahoromatic in the form of films. The episodes have been spliced together into films to give a slightly different version of Mahoromatic. One that won't leave a bitter taste in your mouth at the end. Here's some of the things to expect:

1) All references to Mahoro's life span removed.
2) All references to Management removed.
3) Ryuga will remain Mahoro's final enemy.
4) Episode title, eyecatches, openings, closings removed (for obvious reasons).

The last thing I need is a proper title. I've been thinking about Rebuild, Reboot, Remix, etc. Can anyone come up with something else? Most likely this will be a series of three films in order to include most of the episodes, and get a richer, fuller understanding of the characters. Currently, the first film in the series has been edited completely, but so far there are no subtitles yet. I'll keep posting as more info comes along.
