Basically I am going on break for a while, until I can actually start devoting more time to releasing things and such. The main reason that I am doing this is because well, nobody is working on stuff, including me so basically nothing is getting done and nothing is being released so we aren’t really much of a group now are we? I am not dissolving the group I am simply saying that for now, just expect the exact same thing you have been from us that you have always been expecting, nothing. I will try to stay in contact for the time being.

Hello again

If you are for some reason still checking this site for updates you are both in luck and dumb lol

I have teamed up with the good people at CO-AC or as you know them “Who?” to release H2 another show you have never heard of.

I am simply handling the encoding and they are doing the rest, it will be a joint release under CO-AC and C.U.T.E

Releases might start to pick up again though marimar has been missing for a bit which is why Hells has been stalled… again T.T

As promised I am working on Burn Up Excess in all seriousness this time around, got the first couple episodes encoded and handed off to marimar for further sub processing. If we are lucky releases should start coming out soon.

Thank you for your time, and I apologize that this show took so SOOOOOOOOO long to actually get started on.

Sorry guys, been a bit busy as of late, not to mention the fucktons™ of setbacks and issues that have basically halted all our releases. But who cares about that, time to actually get started on things. I think, I, personally am gonna take from encoding BD’s and hand those off to marimar and such so that I can now focus on DVDs and first up is Burn Up Excess. That is all.

So here is our first v2 release from the Phase 2 projects. :3

This show is quite a pleaser if you get my drift. Old style art with a contemporary setting plus an über cute main female character equals win in my book.

We will also be doing the BDs for the TV show which are currently in the later stages of scripting by The_Profileth.

With no further ado, you can get the release from here. ‘Til next time cowboy~

I plan to get the scripts done for Sakamichi, Nazo no Kanojo X and Maken-Ki! relatively soon so that we can start encoding them.  I personally will also be continuing to work on my backlog of dvd projects as well while these shows are encoded by marimar and Mari (just need to get a member named mar to confuse everyone) Sexy potatoes, Hopscotch and America None of these rhyme

Relatively unrelated^

Either way I think I am gonna start doing weekly updates again, since there tend to be things that actually have gotten done that need updating on.

First off I am pregnant.

This concludes the weekly update.

Hey everyone~ Here is the promised update on everything and anything Dual-Duality. With a few projects under our belt, and a few currently on the works, we are now confident to announce the upcoming projects for the next few months. I also wanted to explain the difference between Dual-Duality and C.U.T.E. releases since you’ll be seeing both in the next few months. The_Profileth structured the group so that different group names could be tagged with a specific type of release done by Dual-Duality. While Dual-Duality is the release group to look for the best available dual audio DVD/BD releases, C.U.T.E. is the release group you should associate with the best available single audio DVD/BD releases. We have a third release group, Xenophile, which will aim to provide the best available dub only releases; of course, we *NEED* staff in order to expand our portfolio to such areas. We should note that for the last few years, Dual-Duality has been mostly a one-man group with help from some but not long lasting individuals. If you think you can contribute to our cause, feel free to catch us in IRC or leave us a comment. Trust me, we *NEED* you; we really do. Now, on to the news you’ve been waiting to hear. Read more

Hello again everyone.

Here is the complete OVA series batch for Idol Project. This has been a very fun project for both The_Profileth and myself as well as a very fun show to watch. All the episodes have received a v2. Padding was added to the subtitles, I went through all the scripts to fix any weird looking line breaks, and I also fixed the way the number “1″ looked in the dialogue font; it looked like roman numeral one.

With this release, Dual-Duality will be moving on to phase 2 of the plan The_Profileth and myself have for the future of the group for the months to come. Make sure to check the website during this week to get the full announcement.

Without further ado, you can download the batch from here.

You can download the patch from here.

How to apply a patch:

1. Unzip the .zip file.

2. Have original files in the same folder as the xdelta files and the .bat file unzipped from the .zip file.

3. Click on the .bat file that says CLICK ME.

4. Profit…
