Note: This anime is a bit challenging to encode since it’s really dark, has a lot of reds, and has a static grain on top, at first i tried to encode without any filtering while try to retain as much detail as possible and keeping at reasonable size, i play around with the setting and i settled by using crf 15 at strength 1 octile 6, although it was giving a good result on ssimu2 but from my eyes it looks bad from my liking, and the size were pretty big around 380mb/ep, thus i decided to apply some denoising, and it came out pretty good i must say.
