[Orphan] Animated Classics of Japanese Literature (DVD).

This is the batch torrent for Orphan’s twelve episodes of Seishun Anime Zenshuu (Animated Classics of Japanese Literature), from the US DVD release. It includes nine stories:

Episode 1: The Izu Dancer by Kawabata Yasunari.
Episodes 2,3: The Sound of Waves by Mishima Yukio.
Episodes 7,8: Botchan by Souseki Natsume.
Episode 10: The Dancing Girl by Ougai Mori.
Episode 14: Growing Up by Higuchi Ichiyou.

Episode S1 (33): Student Days by Kume Masao.

For more information, see the blog entries on the individual stories.

If you have already downloaded the individual episodes, episode 1 has some minor styling fixes, for consistency with later episodes. A patch can be found here. Episodes 2 and 3 are unchanged, but the CRC32 values weren’t included in the file names. They should be renamed to include them.

Thanks for watching. If sources without hardsubs can be found - Japanese VHS tapes or, even better, the R2J ISOs - we may come back to this series.
