Rizel-chan, Rizel-chan, Wherefore Art Thou?
I was looking for more anime to extract clips from, and I thought to myself Rizelmine, that had a nice opening sequence. So I look on the server and... No Rizelmine. Check the unsorted directory. Nope. Check the backup folder. Nothing.
Well, damn and blast. Rizelmine came out a couple of years ago, so it would be licensed by now for sure, and I'd have to buy it on DVD, rip it, and re-encode it before I could actually make the clip. I'll be doing that soon enough (once I get through the fansubs), but it was a bit annoying that I'd lost a series that I once had. (And a bit disturbing that it had happened at all. I thought I'd juggled the various server switches smoothly enough not to have lost entire directories full of anime.)
Turns out, though, that no-one's bothered to pick up Rizelmine. It's still in fansub. Clicky clicky, download.
In fact, according to my list, it's backed up on DVD #20, but I don't know if that's the full series or just the first half. Just the first half, I think, because it says that Kokoro Library is on there as well, and it wouldn't all fit if it was the full two seasons of Rizelmine.
Downloading is easier, anyway.
(If I was with Telstra on one of their non-capped broadband plans, they'd charge me $510 to download that much data. Yeah. Still. In 2005. Bunch of thieves.)

Rizelmine was 15 minute episodes.

Yes, it was, but the fansubbers encoded them with loving care, and each episode is about 150MB. Kokoro Library is another 2GB, so that makes around 5.6GB in all.
I need a proper database for my backups...
