awesome i been wanting to watch this show for a long time. i love these new shows you are doing…first fma then this. totally different from the usual cg stuff
Oh dear, it would seem that I have mistakenly posted the link to the 3rd screenshot of Cyrasβ version twice.
I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this might have caused.
Nice encode, even with .flac it’s that much smaller. Honestly, I couldn’t care less
for a few grains missing (?) or whatnot. This is a good release.
Please bring more in the future, Cyras.
Ah I see thanks Cyras! If it’s just the signs and such, it’s ok. I tend to avoid gg’s translations that’s why I ask. Thanks again! I’ll be getting this. π
wow… it’s size’s smaller than etb’s
Guess I’ll give it a shot, thanks!
This show really deserves more attention than it got while airing. Thanks for the release.

*Cautious*
Any plans for Baccano! maybe ?
Thanks man
Interesting I never heard of this show, but I just checked MAL because of this and it looks good. Guess I’ll try it out.
Anyone have a comparison between this and the EnterTheBlog’s version which is in BakaBT?

I already like this one better. Smaller file sizes with flac. <3
Here are some comparison screenshots between Cyras’ and EnterTheBlog’s version, taken from the first episode of Aoi Bungaku.

As you can see, both versions look almost identical to one another, with EnterTheBlog’s version being marginally better by sporting a higher bit rate encode that retains slightly more grains, though the downside being that their batch is approximately 3GB larger than Cyras’. In all seriousness though, dark scenes are horrendously splattered with displeasing artifacts on both versions, and the cause is either that the quality of the source files were very poor to begin with, or both encoders are simply incompetent (although I highly doubt that it’s the latter one.)
And for those of you who think audio matters, it is worth pointing out that for EnterTheBlog’s version, the original audio track was re-encoded using AAC at 185 kbps, as opposed to Cyras’ lossless FLAC.
On the side note, EnterTheBlog’s version uses the gg’s translations, while Cyras’ uses Masterpiece’s.

Thx for the comparison scrns π
I would just also add one note, these are all from the first story, which was also the one with the worst quality (on source ofc) π
Oh dear lord 720P Ningen Shikaku, I’m already feeling depressed…..
@Cyras: You’re welcome. I also appreciated it that merged the posts for me.
Anyway, I have some more screenshots, this time taken from the last episode:

Please bring more in the future, Cyras.
Thanks for this, it is truly a masterpiece.
What does it mean by using gg’s “typeset”? Like font-styling and such? But translations are from Masterpiece? Did I get that right?
It’s their typesetting of signs etc. But I’ve edited all of the signs to match Masterpiece releases, so yea all translations are from Masterpiece.
If you don’t know the reason of doing this, it’s because Masterpiece had hardsubbed most of their own typesetting.
Ah I see thanks Cyras! If it’s just the signs and such, it’s ok. I tend to avoid gg’s translations that’s why I ask. Thanks again! I’ll be getting this. π
thank you very much
ITP: Mindless gg hate.
Thank you very much !
I’ll better take [Coalgirls] series that ETB.
FLAC Audio, Video Quality is almost the same, and size is a lot smaller.
Thank you !
