But once Kotaku's license to show the series expired, they pretty much officially sanctioned people watching fansubbed versions instead.

* Almost every translated episode was done by a team from Website/SomethingAwful, likewise the site is also where newly translated episodes are first posted. Eventually another group known as "Last Continue GCCX" took up translation duties, around the same time SA did. There have been multiple instances where LC actually got an episode done before SA did. Their blog can be seen at [[http://lcgccx.tumblr.com/ LCGCCX]] and streaming versions of their releases can be found at [[http://www.dailymotion.com/user/lcgccx// their Dailymotion page]].
