Video Source: [German BDMV](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1194280) Audio Source: Muxed from BDMV Subs Source: [FroZen/Gao](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1360028) (Shifted +1s & retimed based on keyframes) Uploader Notes: **This should be the best release available for realsies this time.** Downscaling to 720p had virtually zero affect on quality. This release was also not denoised at all to maintain maximum amount of detail hence the bloated file sizes. Upscaled screenshots were taken in mpv using ewa_lanczossharp for scale and cscale. Comparison between the [Xspitfire911](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1197567) encode I used for my previous release and my encode below. The denoiser in the Xspitfire911 encode appeared to cause some blurring of details and it's most noticeable in the 4th screenshot around the rain drops as well as the lines on the cap in the 3rd screenshot. I also didn't bother converting the audio to FLAC because DTS-HD has better hardware decoding support and this release is already so bloated the extra 1gb saved from converting to FLAC is virtually useless. ***TL;DR Looks better than the last encode at a smaller filesize*** | Source | Old Encode | New Encode | | :-: | :-: | :-: | | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2Ttw5) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2T0Y9) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2TAfm) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2TR1z) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2TZ22) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2T8KP) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2TTpT) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2TgCv) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2Ti0i) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2TEfb) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2TrSC) | [](https://lensdump.com/i/Z2Tjqo) Mediainfo: >General >Unique ID : 266779798879529136005012496935304498231 (0xC8B3EB9A38766FD6AD62FEF1D08F0C37) >Complete name : [Tess] Rainbow Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin -
