It's not an episode; it's one of the CD dramas (Number 3, if I remember right), playing between episode 39 and 40 (and thus named 39.5 by somebody...). It was done with stills to provide a background for the subtitles, which, I think, is a rather good way to deal with CD dramas and hope that other fansubbing groups pick up on that technique.

What it was about? If I remember right, it was about Kantai becoming a general of the army of Kei, and he doesn't want to take the post at first because he is a hanjyuu, but then he meets up with Rakushun and pretty much gets his head straightened out... correct me if that was wrong, it's been forever since I've seen it, have to do that again...

Greetz,

It sounds like quite an inovative technique and could come out quite good. Who did it? And are other CD dramas available that way as well?
Who dunnit - Some of the folks on this board (thanks again for a great job)! 8)

Are there more? - I don't know. I haven't seen any more so far, which is sad, since I would be interested in being able to understand more CD dramas...
