In general, another very grainy anime. Since this one doesn't have grain to just hide ugly upscale artifacts, I decided to keep much more of it, which is why it's a little bigger this time. The blu-rays already look pretty good, so there wasn't really anything else to do besides a little debanding and rescaling. Subtitles: Well, there aren't many phones or signs in general, so the only thing I did was add blur and uniformed the styling across all files and typeset two or so signs. Chapters are from the blu-rays. Stereo audio encoded with 256kbit/s and 5.1 with 512kbit/s. If you want any of the source files, just tell me. QC: My ignorance let me to believe, that if one sign is timed correctly, all the others must be as well. But this is not the case for a single sign in EP03, appearing 4 frames early.
