I need subs for Gurankuresuto Senki but can't find them on any of this page, in Jimkau you can find only the first 6 Episode. What can I do?

Gurankuresuto Senki

I can't find it in my collection either.

Folks... you won't find subtitles available for any given anime or movie, there is good chance that subtitles for the show you're looking very hard for don't even exist on the web, after all there's very little demand for Japanese subtitles, asking here would help you little, just take that opportunity to practice your hearing comprehension, leave your comfort zone so to say, or try that subtitle generation through AI thing but it won't be accurate, needless to say.

okay thanks. What engine do you recommend on subtilteedit? I use Tesseract it isn't very accurate. PaddleOCR also doesn't seem to work

Yeah GIDDATRATIYO is right lol. I've decided I am indeed spending too much time looking for subtitles that just aren't out there...

But I actually did go ahead and try using a standalone version of OpenAI's Whisper (https://github.com/Purfview/whisper-standalone-win) to make subtitles and it's surprisingly accurate with the "medium" model. I have a mid-range GPU from four years ago and it only took about seven minutes to transcribe a 20-minute anime episode. You still gotta keep your ears open to make sure what you're reading is accurate, but personally it's already making picking up new words a lot easier.

Hm that's interesting bro, can you tell me what command line you're using to transcribe japanese, please? I'm kinda very bad with cmd based apps, and are there any other models you tried? I'd prefer the most accurate one obviously
