A while ago I went through most of Seikai series and did some BD encodes + subtitled releases. Not happy with how they were detelecined / encoded / everything, I’m doing the whole Seikai series again, and also releasing them here. Might take a few months (actually, years), hope you enjoy them!
This source appears to be from the weird low-res digital era, with mixed old content and newer content. Subtitles have been sourced from AonE-Conclave release, and re-timed and edited to fit.
This v2 is a major improvement from previous encode (not available in Nyaa). Due to how scenes were stitched in this release, some scenes run at native speed, while others are hard telecined, and others hard interlaced at 540p then scaled to 1080i. Major blending artifacts existed, and residual combing from what the masterers did.

I started working on Crest of the Stars and the BD source caused some minor depression. Here’s two episodes of an even more cursed source thanks to masterers stitching scenes from three seasons (but only had two episodes of frame-by-frame suffering)

thanks for showing some love to this classic. Will wait for your Crest of the Stars encode. I have been waiting to watch this anime for a long long time

@johnbradshaw Just get the km encode: https://nyaa.si/view/1550134 Who knows when this will be done and if it will be better or not. km’s encodes are generally really good and properly filter out issues with the source.

That’s a DVD, which has more blocking issues, but it’s not fucked beyond belief like the bluray. Bluray however has some 1080p sections (few) and no blocking issues

Is it possible to upload the [SCP-2223] release of Seikai no Senki II series to Nyaa? According to AniDB https://anidb.net/a5 , the full TV series has been released by [SCP-2223] but for some reason, only the movie is available on Nyaa.
Thank you :)

It has been released in private trackers only. It’s not proper. As mentioned here and in other releases I am working on getting a watchable release out of the BD(s) for all Crest/Banner of the stars. Once it’s done properly, it will be here on Nyaa.
