I cannot download episode eight of Tokyo Majin. I mean, I can, but it won't play on anything. Well, anything that I have, at any rate. Not Windows Media Player not that that's good for much anyway, not RealMedia Player, not even Media Player Classic, which can supposedly play everything except RM files. My current assumption is that it's a bad upload that's missing an essential piece or two I'd need to actually play it, but I have my doubts. The other option is a missing codec, which is... plausible, but eight is the only episode I have any problems with what-so-ever, and why would they code just that episode differently? Long story short, I may be without that episode, and I hate being without episodes, especially with how sequential Tokyo Majin is turning out to be. I don't suppose anyone who has a working episode would be willing to upload it somewhere for me...?

On a somewhat related note, let me just say that I kinda live for well-thought-out action sequences. If I ever get an opportunity to shove some in a manga (and believe me, if I don't I'll make one), I will have so much fun with it. It will likely be tiring and hate-inducing on many levels, but I will so be going to town.

Edit: Never mind, got it covered on two angles now ^^a

http://kaizoku-fansubs.com/ you could always try these. Hug I hope you gett the other ones working soon if not there's always youtube.

Do they have direct download there, or just torrents? And ditto ;_; But having to use YouTube kinda makes me a sad panda.

You can always try playing it with VLC player? It's pretty awesome and plays just about everything except RM files. You can just google it and DL for free. |D

I guess I could, though that's basically the same description I got for Media Player Classic, s-so.

You know, don't you that Windows Media Player comes from Microsoft with no video codecs (coders/decoders) at all, don't you? And then, every time you install something like CyberLink PowerDVD or DivX/XviD, your system gets new codecs installed, right? Well, in my experience, if you Google "K-Lite Mega Codec download" (without the quotes, of course) to find the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack, you can play pretty much anything that has video encoding. Well, at least in terms of the codecs, anyway. K-Lite won't help with Macrovision or most other copy protection schemes. Anyway, you might give K-Lite a try.

Yeah, I'm familiar with WMP's awesome suckage that way -_-a I used the Gordian Knot codec pack myself, actually, and haven't had any real trouble with it until now. ...Which actually turned out to probably be two bad downloads in a row, since I tried again Just In Case and the new version of the file looks like it'll work with MPC, so.

Oh, and on another related topic, whether one believes in God or not, one may have faith that RealMedia is spawn of Satan...

[soc_puppet]

XD I'd buy that.
