I dunno, I think it's エリンの勉強 の手伝い, beacause they're saything the robot is Erin's study helper. Although listening to it again it sounds more like you're right lol. I guess they just left off the する in お手伝いする :mtongue:

Also at about a minute in Erin says something about her school, Kyle wrote この学校ね and I thought she said 佳な学校, what doth a third opinion think?

And it might be 優しく because the narrator isn't talking about himself, but Honigon. But you're probably right.

Also, I edited my 2nd post to include the dialouge of the rest of the video however, I cannot figure out the teacher's words (About 2 minutes in to about 2:40) He doesn't speak clearly enough D: So If you guys could help me with that I'd really appreciate it.

Can't believe someone who thinks 佳な学校 makes ANY sense is trying to correct this native speaker. I don't need a lesson on particle を, either.

Leaving thread for Shinjuku for a drink. :rolleyes:

There are 8 parts where I can't understand the words, and it's marked by question marks in the subs. If someone could just tell those parts so I could finish this damn thing I'd really appreciate it. :) Also, sorry for the low quality and that the first 4 seconds are cut off. This is the only RAW version I could find (although my subs are so big I could've subbed over the english ones :mtongue: )

I may have made some retarded mistakes so please tell me if you see any. This is my first time subbing in Japanese and you wouldn't believe how long I had to troubleshoot my code to get the kana to display properly, even now my position codes were overridden D': not that it matters in this instance though.

Sorry about the romaji.

Every time i see 今日は I always read it as きょうは... It's very confusing and annoying when people use kanji for こんにちは.

Also things like やってみる and おはよう
I'm not totally sure about the やってみる thing but I don't really see it written as やって見る unless the 見る is not an auxiliary　verb.

You won't really see お早う either.
