[Puella Magi Madoka Magica](https://myanimelist.net/anime/9756/Mahou_Shoujo_Madoka%E2%98%85Magica) **Original subs**: Meguca **QC**: motbob There are some signs in this show that don't have a translation even though they look like they really ought to. That's because those signs are not written in Japanese. A word on the encodes. There are two usable sources for this show: the Italian BD and the Japanese BD. Both have areas of significant detail loss, but the ITBD's loss at least comes with the benefit of debanding whereas the JPBD's loss comes with no benefit whatsoever. [Here are some video quality comparisons to other options](https://slow.pics/c/zecFOCyh). VCB-Studio is not included because it has too many compression artifacts to be competitive, though its filtering is decent. Meguca is not included because it has haloing everywhere. There are alternate honorifics tracks in this release. Set your media player to play "enm" language tracks by default to automatically play honorifics tracks.
