      Netflix's search function is a bit screwy.
      What you get depends on how you word a search, and, if you are including genres (sp?) or other categories, the results depend on how the show is categorized by Netflix.
      Sometimes a partial name will find the show you are looking for, sometimes it won't (sometimes with the same partial name for the same show).

      Well yes and no, we are not asking for those SDBR ones and the japanese blu-rays aren't even region free most of the time anyways so what's the point in paying literally hundreds of dollars that it might not even work on you blu-ray player or even be with english subs? That's how ultraman fans felt for YEARS until FINALLY we got it officaly licenced for blu-ray in the states recently. But obviously the sets are going to be cheap, but usually around 35 bucks for a set and that's IF it's remastered and not cheaply ported in some SDBR one to save time and money. So the title is correct, there was nothing wrong about it. Only a select FEW animes have gotten full 1080p remasters to blu-rays as he mentioned here, in fact the most recent ones is city hunter, galaxy roadway express, and now Inuyasha is getting an HD set. It's really only a mater of time till they get remastered, the good ones anyways.... It just takes a really long time.

    Ashita no Joe. Not only is it a shame that this incredible classic anime has no official english release AT ALL, but its also god damn old.
    There is a Bluray release for Episodes 1-32 of season 1 in Japan and its a massive improvement over the previous DVD releases. But there can be done so much more.
    Its also high time the west developed more of an appreciation for that classic. Instead of just knowing it through the countless references that have been engrained into anime and manga by AnJ, people could just watch it, feel it, enjoy it and see where this legacy comes from.

      I can only agree with Jepze, the animation is a lot better! And its made by the same director as well. So no worries there!
      Season 2 has a much more refined and mature artstyle and i think that really improves it even more.
      By the way while you are currently watching it: There is some overlap between season 1 and season 2 where both series cover the same chapters, and I wholeheartedly recommend starting to watch Season 2 after you have seen Season 1 Episode 52.
      You will get the much better version of that arc in Season 2 and it is a seamless transition.

    This is a personal answer, but...The Slayers. It's the first anime that I saw and got hooked on (not counting shows like Pokemon, Yugioh, and DBZ that I didn't yet realize were in any way distinct from the other cartoons I watched). Not to mention that it manages to be both funny and dramatic when the time calls for it. My nostalgia goggles are on full power for this one, but I think it deserves something.

      I LOVE Slayers. I bought the VHS when I was a teen, then rebought them on DVD (and spent WAY too much money) when DVD became standard. (I think I just betrayed my age.) It's the one anime I've watched so many times I could probably reenact the first 3 seasons by heart. (Revolution and Evolution were okay, but if you read the books, you'd see how it went all wrong plot-wise. They would have been better off just animating the AquaKnight arc)

    I got the Neon Genesis Evangelion Blu-Ray box a couple years ago and holy hell, is it fantastic! The only thing that saddens me is that the original film for episode 16 was lost so they decided to do a crappy, and I mean really crappy upscale, I'm sure the DVD looks better. Plus everything has lossless legacy and renewal/revival audio plus it includes all extras that were ever released plus more unreleased. I got mine from CDJapan which translated to around $350 with shipping then but now the US dollar isn't worth as much anymore, compared to Yen anyways, plus my sets were after they fixed some of the content on the disc 9 Blu-Ray and disc 8 on Archives DVD, I definitely got mine at the perfect time.

    • @DamianV8501
      @DamianV8501 6 років тому

      I've been working on some custom encodes and I took the stephric subtitles (might've spelt that wrong) with some changes and I used nlmeans strong to denoise and its amazing how well it worked. If your PC is strong enough I recommend trying that out with Handbrake. Settings I use are nlmeans and strong no tune, high 4.1 or 5.0 with animation tune and I'd recommend quality 16 or better and keeping the audio tracks lossless. The program recommends 22 to 20 for HD sources but I'd definitely go 16 to 14 with animation tune at least (lower number = higher quality on that scale)

Kare Kano you already know is a legend, and I wanna see all those flowery ass backgrounds that we KNOW somebody poured their heart into.

    Urusei Yatsura: its *THE* comedy anime. EVERYTHING references it, its the foundation point for every high school anime, every harem, every magical girlfriend. At least 60% of all seasonal shows can be traced back to this anime, and almost no one has seen it any more

    - Slayers
    - Shamanic Princess (at least a GOOD DVD release with a GOOD sub)
    - Galaxy Express 999 (though it is already on Crunchy Roll)
    I am pretty sure many digitally coloured animus were produced at a resolution above 480 NTSC.

    • @Zalis116
      @Zalis116 5 років тому

      Slayers has BD remasters of the OVAs and movies in Japan, but afaik the film stock for the three 90s TV series was lost, so no remastering is possible. Shamanic Princess did get a DVD re-release in 2013, although I don't know if they updated the subs. GE999 TV got BDs in Japan, but they're upscaled from the analog masters, not rescanned from film stock.
      Sure, many digitally colo(u)red anime were produced at >480p, but not until around 2006-07. And even then, it was a gradual climb, as seen with 2009-10's Fullmetal Alchemist series being 540p. Most early/mid-00s digipaint shows were done in SD resolutions, some at even *less* than 480p. The DVDs for certain titles like Vandread, SaiKano, and Zaion ~ i wish you were here present a 16:9 image in a 4:3 letterbox (i.e. if you play them on a widescreen TV, you'll have black bars on all 4 sides), meaning that they were effectively made in 360p.

  • @joycestick
    @joycestick 6 років тому +3

    Thought about Evangelion:
    Recently, FLCL Progressive was released for us Western folks, dub only, because we get it first and if it were only subtitled then Japanese folks could just reverse import/use a VPN for it and pay the subtitles no mind. So, in a similar vein... maybe to cut down on the possible reverse importing, if a hypothetical US blu ray was released with only an English dub (the original ADV dub or a redub, whatever), then Gainax *might* be willing to let it go over here since Japanese consumers wouldn't be able to import it as easily? Or, well, would, but find little use in doing so.
    I mean, a lot of people probably wouldn't like that, but it'd be better than nothing.

  • @paolol.110
    @paolol.110 4 роки тому

    Mahoromatic was already released on Blu-Ray in Japan some years ago, but the Blu Ray was (likely?) sourced from a videotape master or from a 16mm or 35mm prints or negatives. Also, the opening credits of the series are stretched, because the credits was designed for an aspect ratio of 1:33:1 in mind, and thus, Gainax placed the intro credits on the squeezed aspect ratio, instead of placing it in a safe area.
    The only problem that Evangelion have on all of the home video releases (since Renewal/Platinum Collection) is that the 16th episode (an episode were it is cited as a psychological shift in the series) had their original 16mm negatives/prints were lost inside a laboratory (either it was in Tokyo Laboratory or in IMAGICA) due to a flood or fire or how it was mishandled, which is why we only have two sources for the 16th episode, either a 35mm interpositive or an original broadcast master tape in SD (which it was a telecine of the original 16mm master), which both of them are considered as upscales (and they are both notorious for having artifacts and loss of detail).

    Does Lupin need a remaster or not?

    But _should_ we really get high-def remasters? I mean, as much as this cel art is beautiful and detailed, it wasn't meant for window-sized 4k panels, and a lot of small imperfections were probably neglected because of nature of analog media. I mean, you may like HD remasters, but they might _not_ _necessarily_ look better.

      A lot of old anime remasters do have those black side bars

      One example is the Japanese Space Battleship Yamato blu-ray. The remaster reveals a lot of stuff that you weren't supposed to see, like glass panels sliding across each other to create the backdrop of space. It's hard to watch, despite the quality.

      Дмитрий М On other hand it's reveals stuff that weren't clear seen or you missed remasters for the most are a good thing.

    $99.99 = 90 bucks
    As expected of the shill master

    I dont know how many people have heard of it, but Nightwalker the midnight detective was like my most favourite anime.
