Bet most of you don't even know this show. Also yes, I am aware that it's big. Sue me.
The websources, despite all appearances with this encode's filesize, is incredibly starved. To get the best out of it, I averaged out every episode between ep4-ep13 for the OP (those episodes specifically because of animation fixes), which helped dampen a lot of the blocking quite well. Sadly couldn't do this with the ED, since the credits change every episode. After that, I did a basic rescale (lanczos, taps=5) and reupscaled with nnedi3+SSIM. The credits in the OP seemed to be the same native resolution, but the ED ones had to be masked. I further denoised the ED using knlm and ccd, and did a weak decsize on both OP/ED. This was then followed by weak line darkening on the ED to help make the lines more consistent across the board, and then debanding + adaptive dynamic graining for both.
I'm not particularly proud of this, but I couldn't really do much more with how shit the sources were. If anyone happens to have the BDs lying around, please don't hesitate to contact me. I'll do a re-release if I get my hands on them. If not, oh well.
Requests are welcome, but don't count on me to follow through with yours from the get-go.
