Of the earlier seasons, DGz is technically better. They took Triad's translation and fixed any errors that Triad listed (but never released v2's for). I'd still recommend Triad for the earlier seasons.Originally Posted by RyougaZell
As for StrikerS, DGz has their own translation team this time around, produce the best visual quality (even over Triad's eps 1), and their translations have slightly less mistakes than Triad's, and much fewer than yesy.
If you go to Triad's site, it's pretty clear that they really lost all interest in Nanoha. Many members of the staff hold the series openly in disdain. Before it was more of a joke, but now they seem to actually mean it. They put very little effort into episode 1. My Japanese isn't all that good, but even I was able to notice problems. There are a lot of translation mistakes, and the encoding and timing are sub-par for their typical work. I no longer believe they are just waiting for good raws. The video quality on the first season of Triad's releases was about equivalent to yesy's medium quality. There is no reason that they should not have found a better raw for episode 2 by now. The whole team is obviously much more interested in Bokurano.
As much as I hate to admit it, don't waste your time on Triad's StrikerS releases. Even for archiving. They really just don't seem to care anymore. Watch DGz instead.
