This is the last series I wanted to re-do in 10-bit because I wasn’t satisfied with my original.

    Awesome. I plan to support this whole heartedly if a BDMV doesn’t happen. ^_^

    You’d be better off donating now than later, because if a BDMV doesn’t happen and I have no donations, I may just cancel.

    Can I donate specifically to this? Your current donation counter is for Nogizaka Disc 3, it seems.

    You know what? I bought a DVD of Haibane Renmei exactly 32 days ago ._.

    Hopefully BD version won’t be as blurry as DVD. Or maybe it’s that blur that gives this series such atmosphere?

    Well somewhat unrelated any thoughts on Serial Experiments Lain BD that should be released end of the year?

    Also from another source, for Lain BD, it seems to have a release date of October 27th, 2010:
    http://www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/ASIN/B002TPFM1G/affenheimthea-22

    Not really interested. Now if there was a Dennou Coil Blu-Ray that’d be a different story.

    I think there are better series to spend money on … I’ve seen Haibane Renmei some years ago, it was nice but I have absolutely no urge to watch it again.

    on BakaBT comments to the cestfait release indicate their subs were taken from the R1 DVDs. Other Subs are mentioned as being superior, you might want to check those out.

    EXCELLENT!!

    How many discs is it? This is why I hate buying; everything could fit on one..

    4. Either way, I only can get ~10 GB downloaded before I get back from vacation. The other 80-90 will have to wait until after.

    [QTS] made their 720p-BD-rip, and the quality is quite poor. Maybe they have failed with filtering, but either way the source is not worth it. Looks like average DVD-upscale.

    Well i checked the QTS raws as well and they sucked,but so did their ga rei zero raws so maybe its justwhoever is ripping them is crap and not doing a very good job.Personally i will wait for a good encode of the bdiso/bdmv and see if the quality’s good instead of judging it on QTS raws

    “I knew this would look bad but I didn’t think it would be THIS bad.”
    “For Haibane… sigh… it looks horrible… Q-tec + horrible masters = disaster.”
    “In any case, it looks horrible. I feel bad for those who bought the release…”
    CG,good luck with your releases.

    Both images are bad IMO and R1DVD is always bad in term of video quality. Interested to see R2DVD vs JP bluray and how many details are lost.

    Definitely a great series, but the BD is a q-tec upscale, not sure if it’s worth it or not.

    Yay for Macross! Stupid hardsubbed karaoke-lossy audio thora 😛

    As for Haibane, I will get 1 episode and see if how it looks. Not really a big fan. But I am glad to read if Dennou Coil would be done if it ever got released!

    Can you do a DVD-BD comparison? So far I’ve seen DVD version, and I’m not sure if BD it’s worth downloading.

    @Tim: Outside of R1 subs, the only other option for Haibane Renmei is to OCR/transcribe the old AonE hardsubbed TV-rips. And there’s no guarantee that those will be any better.

    @Guy: There is no English audio for Macross Frontier. Idk if you meant original Macross or what.

    DmonHiro writes:

    No, Zalis, I guarantee you that the old AonE subs are NOT better. In fact, they kind of suck, translation wise.

    I´m very exited with Macross Frontier, I have the Thora version and the fansub have trolls to death.

    Also is 720 and the bitrate is very poor for the mecha fights and the sound isn´t FLAC, very bad work for an Anime with music like this.

    Keep the good work coalgirls !! ^o^

    Could you spare to add the total size in your usual description? My internet connection sucks and I need to proportion what I download first. Now I have to download the torrent first and open it in µTorrent before I get to see how big it is. It’d just spare me and a lot of other people (think about those with a transfer limit) a lot of time. Thanks either way.

    When you’ve downloaded and watched the quality of the 720p version, I don’t think you will still ask that question.

    Thanks anyway, Coalgirls. I find that the colors look better than the R1 DVDs, if nothing else.

    Anyone else having problems with a choppy playback?

    It will be slightly choppy. The BDMV was poorly rendered, so it had a weird telecine pattern that often skipped telecined frames.

    I really don’t want to bother you, but the audio gets out of sync after the OP for me. I use the newest version of cccp and the problem only occurs with this release. When I skip the OP the problem disappears.
