Here are episodes 1-31 of the P Productions' tokusatsu series Spectreman in a raw format. I ripped these from the Portuguese ISOs in 720p in order to improve the quality of the poor master materials the Portuguese distributors used. The DVDs used VHS masters (or dups) as their video source. To complicate matters, they crammed 8 episodes onto one single-layered DVD-5, which caused a lot of artifacing and compression issues on the video that I can't fix. It's not terrible, but it's there, so consider yourself warned. The reason I split this into a separate torrent (the second one is on the way) is because I could not reliably host the complete series torrent on my slightly older setup. So, the series raws will be split between two torrents, which encapsulate the two 4-disc Portuguese DVD sets for Spectreman. This torrent is DVD Set 1, discs 1-4, respectively. The files are raw mkvs and include the original Japanese audio in AAC format. They range in size from 350 MB to 590 MB. I hope you can still enjoy this rare series in its original raw format, and be sure to seed for a while after you're done!

I did a rip of the same DVDs a while ago. https://nyaa.si/view/1330701 The mastering really is terrible, one of these days I'll track down the R2 sets and rip those.

I had no idea you had already ripped those, Dodgy; my apologies. Should I just take this down? I don't want to undercut you if I can avoid it.
Nah, that's fine keep them up.

@ml0606148: You're welcome! Have fun watching Spectreman! @DodgyAussie: Sounds good, Dodgy. I have three more ISOs left to rip and then Spectreman is done. Time to get back to work!
Henshin-Man, will you be putting up the rest of Spectreman in the future? Would be excellent! The ultimate of all would be to sub Spectreman and Tiger Mask. I've been waiting for so long - it astonishes me that this has not been done yet (cannot stand the US dub of Spectreman) - they are only two of the most important shows EVER. If anyone is to do it....let it be HENSHIN-MAN!!!!!!!!

@robotoku: I actually had the rest of the series ripped, believe it or not, and ended up losing it in a weird hardware issue with my laptop. It was taking up a lot of hard drive space, so who knows what happened. I will try and work on this again, but as far as subbing it goes, Spectreman's Japanese is a bit beyond my current level. As for Tiger Seven, I did end up subbing eps 1 & 2 with a very passionate translator back in the day, but have since lost touch with him, and I definitely need a translator for that one; it made things so much easier. Thank you for your vote of confidence in me and for commenting, I really appreciate it!
Great to hear from you, Henshin-Man! I'll keep the faith that your Japanese keeps getting better because I really enjoy your subbing style - would love to see YOU tackle Spectreman someday. Though I think Tiger 7 is absolutely fantastic and am awaiting more subbed eps, I was actually referring to the AMAZING Tiger Mask anime from 1969. Can you try it out, man? Truly, Tiger Mask anime and Spectreman toku are sorely needed - want to see them subbed before the earth disintegrates. Tiger! Tiger! YOU be a Tiger, Henshin-Man!!!!!

@robotoku: I did read this message when you first posted it and downloaded eps 1-6 of Tiger Mask '69 from tygerrh (sp?)'s batch torrent, and also got the ARR scripts for whatever eps fell in that arc (1 and 4-6, I think). I think I got about six or seven minutes into ep #1 and the re-timing became a total mess, because as I've said many times on the blog, fixing ARR's timing is not as simple as shifting times in Aegisub--when you shift one line, it affects all of their other ones, because their timing is almost always off by a few seconds anyway. I promise I will plug away at it in my spare time (when I don't have my face stuffed in Pokemon Arceus, that is; just got it last week and I love it!) and maybe I'll get a scrubbed ep #1 out sometime before Christmas. I know that sounds bleak, but that's about the pace I'm at right now. I hope that helps you in some way, and I'm glad you pointed me to that show, it is pretty cool!
