We had to mail a hard disk around in Germany and rape a campus connection for three days in order to get ahold of the BDMVs. So you’d better be grateful for this 😀

@ChrisK
That is freaking awesome! I’m surprised that this is getting done so soon. I started watching frosti’s release but now I can finish with yours.

Tenshi I was thinking the same thing.

Especially when he said campus. Uni usually got insane (everything’s relative) speed.

You know there are 2 opening titles, the second overlays the inside of the engine with the last bit of the first op.

Thanks for RideBack.
So with this project done that fast, would you reconsider doing also Railgun?
Since it got many votes too. Anyway do what you want, I appreciate your work.

What Tormaid said, there’s 2 opening video version. Would be nice if you could fix that.

coalgirls writes:

There are 2 opening video versions in the TV series, because it was a case like Bakemonogatari’s ED. They started off with a simpler one until they had the time to finish it. So the “first version” is more the “incomplete version”, which the “second version” is the “complete version”.

The only one on the BDs is the one with the mechanics, and that is the one used here.

Okay, here are some comparison screenshots between Coalgirls and THORAnime, taken from the OP. These screenshots were captured using ffdshow, they were originally captured as BMP files and converted to JPEG files using PhotoShop CS5 at maximum quality compression (so they looked identical to the BMP files, unless you zoomed in and inspect every pixel or something…)

Anyway, here they are:

As you can see, the differences in quality between the two are slight at most. Now, I did notice, after straining my eyes looking at the monitor, that THORA’s version retained more details (well, they should since their release have higher bitrates,) but they are so slight that you will have a hard time spotting them even when you’re looking at still images, which means that there is no way you can see those differences in details during playback.

Personally, I chose Coalgirl’s release. It has FLAC, it’s not as bloated as THORA’s, and it’s completed.

Anyway, I’ll go and enjoy RideBack now. Many thanks to Coalgirls.

Is it possible for you to release the Credited OP/ED as well? Personally I like Rideback’s Credited OP more than the Creditless. Thanks.

No. And I’m not going to release an XviD, I’m not going to release one with commentary, and I’m not going to release one with compressed audio.

Requests specific to you are exactly that, and you need to do that on your own.

Ever heard of PNG? 😉

Bloodios writes:

@asfaoikj:
Bigger, waste more time to upload, and imageshack tends to compress PNG files, so no. And like I said before, I used PS CS5 to convert the original BMP files to JPEG files at maximum quality compression, you won’t see any differences unless you magnify the image or something.

Don’t use Imageshack*, then. JPEG means they’re pretty much worthless for video comparison purposes.

* Try, for instance, sadpanda.us or the nifty new min.us.

Bloodios writes:

^ Will check those out, but as I was saying, I checked the quality and they look identical to the original. I wouldn’t even bother uploading these images if there were visible differences between the compressed and the original ones, that’ll just make a fool out of myself.

At first, I uploaded the PNG images (compressed from the original BMP images) on screenshotcomparison but they didn’t show up on the site (maybe glitches or whatever), so I uploaded two more times but the result doesn’t change so I went back, compressed the original BMP files to JPEG and uploaded them on imageshack.

Thank you so much. I was watching this Anime last year from other web site. Somehow, they only made 1-5 episode and stopped, and couldn’t found anywhere for the rest of the 1080p version. Wow, you made my dream come true 🙂

@Bloodios

Thanks for the comparison shots…
I would personally choose FLAC audio in this case…. it just sounds SO much better.

Moreira writes:

It looks great, but in the 1st ep in the 1080 batch the audio is out of synch. Are you going to fix this or is it just me?
2010-12-11 at 21:39:42

Sayer writes:

^For some reason when I play with MPC I get the same syncing problems as Moreira stated, but when I play the file with KMPlayer it runs fine. It’s the first time it’s ever happened to me in MPC.

Overall I don’t think there is anything wrong with the files.

This was one of the best anime series I have seen.
The characters were solid, the story was engaging, and the only thing missing was a little romance.
Thx for bringing us such a great anime!

Do you girls think you’d be able to get this dual audio sometime in the near future I’m going nuts trying to find it but there are no torrents anywhere for it, and I really love this series!
Thanks in advance!!!

^ why would you want duel audio bigger file sizes and most of the time people just reuse the english subs from the BD which suck

I guess there’s no way you’d put up the BDMVs as DDL?

awesome release!!! thanks coalgirls!

anyway, why do you use the creditless op ed as the op ed in the episode? this is the first time i’ve seen a release using creditless op ed for the episode’s op ed.

Didn’t expect it to be that good after watching first episode I could force my self to stop till I’ve watch it all. Nothing special but it was pleasant to watch. Awesome release, thanks.
