[YHBT]The truth at last
Staff @ 2011-04-01
It time for the truth to come out. As many of you have suspected, we are in fact Dattebayo... well, one of the sub-teams.

In truth we were the team that worked on Bleach - we had decided to take a change of pace and took on a new name and continued subbing Naruto after we had to stop because of Crunchyroll, the old Naruto team taking over the subbing of Bleach in our absence. When Crunchyroll finally started subbing Bleach as well, they were unable to continue subbing under the name of Dattebayo, but simply assumed a different name and continued subbing. As you may have guessed, that assumed name was SGKK.

Recently we have phased out the old Dattebayo name, putting up a seized notice as a final farewell. This was all in preparation for what we are about to do: announce the reformation of the entire Dattebayo staff, albeit under a different name. To honor the names that we have operated under, we have chosen to use Shottebaka. "Sho" from SGKK's Shogakukan, "tteba" from Dattebayo and "ka" from Taka. And, just as Dattebayo linked into Naruto, this links to Bleach through Urahara's cane!

To celebrate our reformation, we vow to continue the tradition of releasing in the superior AVI format the day after airing! As a sign of this vow we've released Naruto Shippuuden 205 along with this news post.

New channel is #Shottebaka@irc.rizon.net

While we do have a few staff members between both groups who're from DB, the main staff members/founders are in no way from DB. The merger is false, though we do tend to help each other out behind the scenes a bit here and there.

April Fools!
