#### Original release by Miss Dream and bloat removal by FitWeeb Repacks.
--------------------
I've finally been able to get the latter 4 volumes, because the original torrents were resurrected somehow.
Big shoutout to July, Romao and the JPEG-XL discord server. This release wouldn't be as debloated without them.
Thanks to succ_ for helping seeding

### Understanding JPEG-XL ![](https://files.catbox.moe/4wqbu0.png)
Viewer with JPEG-XL support: https://github.com/d2phap/ImageGlass
JPEG-XL is the best image format I can think of and I hope it gets massively adopted or that an even better codec gets mass adoption instead.
What I like about JPEG-XL is the ability of encoding JPEG images into reversible JPEG-XL losslessly. What does "reversible" mean? JPEG-XL, instead of decoding the JPEG into pixels before compressing, will compress the JPEG. After that you can convert the JPEG-XL image to JPEG using their reference software, [libjxl](https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl).
`cjxl input.jpg reversible.jxl -e 8 -I 1.0 -E 3` will encode the image into a JPEG-XL.
`djxl reversible.jxl reversed.jpg` will reverse the image back to the original.
So, if you want to edit them using non-supported software, like photoshop, you'll have to install libjxl. You can download a static build from [here](https://artifacts.lucaversari.it/libjxl/libjxl/latest/).
--------------------
By using image magick you can compare to see if there is any difference between the two.
`magick compare -metric AE input.jpg reversed.jpg diff.png` will output the number of different pixels between the two images.
--------------------
### Repack information
All colored pages were encoded in reversible JPEG-XL and all grayscale pages were encoded in PNG. This because compressing the grayscale pages in reversable JPEG-XL wouldn't compress as much as PNG.
I could have done `cjxl input.jpg reversible.jxl -j -m -q 100 -e 8 --strip -I 1.0 -E 3` to compress lossless JPEG-XL and have better compression than PNG, but that would be painfully slow on my machine. To compensate, I archived every volume individually in 7zip.
The overall size was reduced from 47.5GB to 20.5GB.
