Below you will find some information about some of our staffers here at Zeonic|Scanlations. Some of their stories are wildly insane and who knows what kind of drama they're liable to kick up on the internet!
DEACON BLUES: Deacon is the administrator, founder, overall lazyass and emo creator of Zeonic|Scanlations. He's been through more bouts of emo and drama than the internet has cared to see. After closing the group about 6 times, he always managed to bring the group back over and over again after coaxing from his former staff members. He's a photoshop whore and translator for the group who insists upon perfection. He also purchases all of the manga that the group utilizes entirely out of pocket. Donations for him please?

BAMF : Bad Ass Mother Fucker, or BAMF for short, has been around the digital fansubbing scene since its inception at the dawn of the millenium. Originally starting out as a lower level quality checker for hit shows such as Inuyasha and Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex, BAMF's fansub whoring finally paid off when he was auditioned to be an editor for the group #Anime-Kraze and got the job. Early into his career as an editor, BAMF, then going by the pseudonym "MrAnderson", was placed on the editing team for Mobile Suit Gundam Seed. Kraze was soon forced to drop the Gundam Seed series after it was licensed, and after a short-lived intra-group project to continue the series, the team behind Gundam Seed at Kraze collectively decided to cease operations. Around the same time, the leader of the Inuyasha project, caught up in the fame of being a fansubbing celebrity, overdosed on cocaine at a sex party in northeastern Cleveland. BAMF, trying to look "cool", said that he could fill in on the jobs done his late colleague when actually he had no idea how to do anything other than edit. Seizing this opportunity to make a break in the fansubbing business, BAMF learned the skills of typsetting and timing, and used them to continue the Inuyasha project until allowing the younger generation of fansubbers to take over. Now a hotshot in the fansubbing underworld, BAMF decided to bring the Gundam Seed project back from the dead and continued it until completion. By this time, he was doing pretty much everything except translating. After completing the Gundam Seed Special Edition trilogy, BAMF left the group over creative differences. Kraze was headed in a different direction, and BAMF was destined for greater things. Ironically, BAMF's sympathizers within the group would later turn to him to help several projects he left behind be completed when others in the group failed to get the job done.
Around the same time BAMF was cutting himself off from Kraze, a group of like-minded fansubbers decided to band together and continue another popular show that was dropped due to the evil North American Anime Industry sticking its nose where it doesn't belong. Together, the best fansubbers from across the universe formed the Justice League of Interplanetary Fansubbers, which after legal negotiations with DC Comics, was changed to #Spoon. The team at Spoon devoted themselves to finishing out the series Fullmetal Alchemist, and after a brief hiccup in release speed during the final five episodes, they succeed. A few short months afterward, with the group in limbo, BAMF took it upon himself to release the series Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny under the Spoon label. However, this new-look version of Spoon featured BAMF singing lead vocals and playing both lead and backup guitar, except drums which he preferred not to play (read: doing all fansubbing jobs except timing). BAMF, also acting as group manager, signed up a little known timer from an obscure corner of the internet, and a new magic was reborn. Due to a lame and increasing penchant of using Adobe After Effects for fansub title screen logos, BAMF was forced to cease operations on Seed Destiny when his logo artist delayed the project indefinitely whilst working on the logo for the third opening sequence of GSD. This wouldn't be the end of BAMF, as word spread that a Gundam Seed Destiny four part compilation film series would be coming out of Japan relatively soon after BAMF and his team quit work on the TV series. With translations done deep into the series, the remnants of Spoon closed up shop and joined forces with Zeonic-Corps, a group known for scanlating Gundam manga and occasionally hosting jam sessions in Deacon Blues' basement in upstate New York. This alliance would lead BAMF to direct the best team of fansubbers he has ever worked with, and also produce the best work of his career. After spending nearly a year working on the four part series, BAMF decided that he would have the GSD compilation films be his swan song, and he left the fansubbing underworld.
With his celebrity icon status and tons of free time on his hands, BAMF became what is called a "party animal" in some sociological circles. This lifestyle led him to meet many interesting people, and unfortunately led him down the path of hard drugs. Heavy into cocaine use, BAMF became so paranoid that it led to massive destruction of his and others' property, therapy, a stint in rehab, and an eventual arrest trafficking one thousand kilos across the California/Mexico border with intent to distribute. He hired Johnny Cochrane to use his patented "Chewbacca Defense" and was found not guilty of all charges. Deciding that hard drugs were not the answer, BAMF decided he was safer not doing drugs at all...until he found that there was a whole different subculture of people, referred to as "hippies", who use drugs that don't make you go crazy. BAMF found himself at home with the hippies and devoted himself to their cause. But eventually BAMF missed the one thing that made him truly happy. The drugs, the women and the sex were great, but his one true love was fansubbing. BAMF scheduled a reunion tour with Deacon Blues and the Zeonic-Corps Band, but Deacon couldn't take time out of his schedule to accomodate. Another group, which will remain nameless due to an ongoing flamewar on 4chan and a legal battle in the court system, approached BAMF willing to help him with his reunion tour. Reluctantly he accepted the offer, but after only a month and a half of touring, he decided to call it quits and go back to hanging with the hippies. Once again he couldn't say no to fansubbing and is finally reuniting with Deacon Blues and the Zeonic-Corps Band for their first live performance tour in two and a half years. Tickets at most venues are already sold out and are going for astronomical prices on eBay.
Known for his wit, sarcasm, occasional drama kinging, and one-of-a-kind attention to editing detail, BAMF has been voted Best Editor five times at the International Fansubbing Awards, voted Best Subtitler twice at the Academy Awards, and was voted Best Fansubber of 2007 by Everyone On The Internet.
AIRMASTER: Hailing from the Northern, frozen lands of Canada, AirMaster is a slacker that decided to stop slacking to work for Z-C. He too is often left uncredited (although, he sometimes doesn't work on the releases at all since he's never informed of them until they actually come out). Loves to announce his arrival by screaming "AIRMASTER KENZAN!".
Quotable Quotes:
<AirMaster> I'm gay for Gackt
DERRINGER: A long time Gundam fan and GunPla builder, Derringer is one of our main editors, and is often left uncredited due to the lolwutness of the release staff on the credits page. Fumigating his anger often, he often cybers with Starscream.

<Derringer> MY DICK IS FINE <Derringer> MY SPERM IS NOT <Derringer> END OF STORY <@Derringer> k, it's bath time with rubber ducky
REDTAIL: Resident Titans/Feddie-lover and editor. Everyone constantly says his soul is weighed down by gravity, but those people are stupid doo doo heads.?Perhaps one day, Yazan Gable shall visit their homes, and when the right moment arises, he'll rip off their testicles and force-feed 'em their fleshy sacks of manhood! RedTail's enemies are advised to keep plenty of oranges on hand as Vitamin C has proven to ward of sudden Yazan attacks.
HEDGESMFG: All around notable Gundam@nut, rabid editor, and QCer who enjoys giving you free stuff just a little bit 'too' much...
ZANKU: The Great Lone Photoshoper whose dream of being an astronaut has been turned into shambles and now in solitude photoshops in a dark empty corner. Have patience and your glorious manga will be completed. Believe in me, who believes in you!
