Well, I suppose I have a reason to post here again.
As I think you guys are aware, Oban has been airing on NHK'S BS-2 network, and I thought I'd update some information on this.
1. The opening credits now are translated into Japanese. Also, the Opening now has the song credit placed here instead of the ending song.
2. The Episodes now feature eyecatchers.
3. The ending, like the opening, has now translated all the credits. The only disapointment is the french 3D animation team is no longer credited, outside a single credit for "3D Animation Production". The credits also have been reorganised, and flow through the ending slightly better.
4. And we NOW have Next Episode previews for the series.
Here's some video's for this:

I think that may be the last thing that comes from me on the Japanese version of Oban. If there's anything else you guys may want to know or want to see, feel free to ask.
