Well, actually they edited their announcement and changed it from 2007 to 2008.

So now our only proof of them not subbing naruto is when naruto shippuden 67 is released. But then again, they can release it few days late or so....we'll see when the times comes

[the_gallant_jiraiya]

they pulled this before around christmas time last year, they're gonna sub again.
they're bluffing, theres no way they're going to stop subbing naruto lol the site wouldve already been closed

[BlizzarD]

yeh i saw that joke too and then again they write something at aprils fools... they geting retaired...

[mastaz911]

ROFL....ya, just ignore it. Getting trolled once is bad...but don't let the joke to be on you continuously! I know there will STILL be people asking about it on what they can do....BUT...I'll state it again. TROLLLLL

[Filip The Great]

So they are going to have a double episode....

I guess that's when the filler ends I hope
I read the manga but it's much more
interesting when it is in color and motion + the
music and sounds and the voices.....

[ayane]

Too bad we have to wait for fillers

hey guys an update, it is real actually.

dattebayo fansubs :: News

99% positive that they have no choice but to drop it due to legal issues

Here's one of the question that was asked and answered, an aswer that it isn't being a troll

Help, I'm confused! Despite the lengthy explanations linked above, I still don't understand why you're dropping Naruto Shippuuden.

Anyone who follows the anime industry knows that in bringing fansubs a wider audience, streaming sites time have made it increasingly difficult for copyright holders to ignore the existence of the groups that subtitle and distribute their property. At some point, they will stop trying to go after the sites themselves and simply cut off the problem at the source (i.e., us). To paraphrase one of the few intelligent comments we've received in regards to this matter, people who are uploading our work to streaming sites are basically putting us in harm's way without our permission. Some people have commented that uploaders are "helping" us by making us more popular, but this is the kind of "help" we don't need.

In addition, as we have stated repeatedly, we do not approve of others taking our work and using it to make a profit. Many streaming sites not only solicit donations but fill their pages with ads, even though for the most part they are simply linking to videos that were uploaded at no cost (to YouTube or other sites) and are using free hosting services. This means that they are essentially scamming viewers into thinking that donations are required to keep their "free" service running, even though they are already making a profit off advertisements. We do not spend hours of our lives subbing episodes for free so that other people can make a profit off our videos with a few clicks of their mouse.

Soooo what now? if they really do will this be a normal anime forum or will we get new subbers?

[Alpha_522]

Hopefully there will be another subber that will takeover. we'll see

highly positive that they have no choice but to drop it.
