[Orphan] Animated Classics of Japanese Literature E02 - E03 - The Sound of Waves (DVD)

Orphan is redoing as many of the stories from the 1986 anthology series Seishun Anime Zenshuu (translated as Animated Classics of Japanese Literature for its English release) as we can find sources for, starting with the twelve episodes released in North America on DVD. We’ll be releasing the show as individual stories; the second is a two-parter, The Sound of Waves, based on a 1954 novel by Mishima Yukio. It’s a coming-of-age story and a romance set on an island off Japan. Kubo Shinji is a young fisherman. He meets and falls in love with Hatsue, the daughter of a local bigwig, and the feeling is mutual. But the young lovers face multiple obstacles in their path: jealous acquaintances, gossipy numbers, and Hatsue’s suspicious father. Will the course of Young Love™ run true? No points for guessing.


New encode from the R1 DVD. Translation checked script, with fixed timing and new typesetting. See this blog entry for more details.
