Uploader Notes:
This source was an interesting one while their are multiple encodes of this show I’ve failed to find one that addresses a massive issue with the DVDs. Despite the DVDs being soft-telecined they still have, what I presume to be, residual combing artifacts every few frames making them virtually unwatchable. I ended up anti-aliasing the video with santiag with these settings: ‘strh=1, strv=0, type=“nnedi3”, nns=4, nsize=6, opencl=True, device=0.’ Beyond that the source has not been denoised or filtered in any way. Below are some screenshots comparing the source DVDs with this encode.

I played your release with Koten Gars release back to back and I struggle to find the difference, am I missing something?
Tesseract (uploader)
@Rowri88 It depends on the frame some frames have pretty bad aliasing others are perfectly fine, when comparing pay attention to line edges specifically. Some frames have edges that are a lot more jagged than others if you step through frame by frame this aliasing becomes a lot more noticeable. You can also refer to the comparison screenshots I’ve included in the description.

Thanks. Great encode!
A minor difference, sure, but definitely worth it. Much appreciated.
