Welcome to the first internetional Arlong Park thread for BalF releases. Though i don't agree with the single thread strategy i will say that i'm happy other groups apart from the ones that are favoured by the admins get to exist and make this community even more special than it is, thank you mods and admins.
A quick refresh regarding who balf are to the best of my knowledge, their Balfango Fansubs (or something of similar nature) and appear to be from Eastern Europe. like a super hero they plug gaps in subbing continuity, i.e. when everyone needed KF -> HK they stepped up and when everyone needed Helll -> Geru, they…wait, that's what's happening now, well they're here to perform the favour and i assume we're all greateful.
While their subs are only intended to like morphine to a heroin addict, the quality is nice and the subs are above that of speed subbers, though their research seems to go Jessica Alba-Fantastic Four on occasion. that basically means these aren't for the archive but they're a great service to the fan and beam with personality, so a huge thank you to [BalF] for rescuing the lowly fan from a life of waiting for KF to catch up.
LATEST EPISODE: 210
