Well it really depends on your distance from the screen, if its TV the difference is seamless but on PC it’s noticeable. however encoding in 1080p (and good compression ratio without much quality loss) is really resource consuming, so it’s understandable.
@puto: thanks for noting that :)
I don’t believe you would know, but no pain in asking: would you happen to know if it’s just the UK BD or is it in all of the dub BD’s?

this is the english Bluray with dual audio and official subs.
BTW did you use any kind of color manipulation or filter in your encode?
It looks a bit more blue than the japanese, did 4k to this?

I personally had no involvement in this one, so I don’t know what was done to it. AFAIK it’s just a straight, minimally processed encode.

Thanks a lot! If this is from the Bluray, is there a 1080p version available?

The encoder, like me, generally doesn’t feel that encoding at 1080 offers enough benefit over 720p.

Really? Is it a question of the effort involved or the difference in quality? Thank you for your reply!

Both. A lot of anime - even theatrical - just isn’t animated at such a high resolution.

@fxpijs: There was no colour manipulation involved whatsoever, the UK BD really is a bit bluer than the Japanese BD.

Huh. Thank you all! The perfectionist in me is upset but I can understand the balancing act between the effort and payoff involved :)

@passwordgiver don’t worry, there will be another torrents in time…
