Type: Movie (7 Parts + Epilogue + Remix)
Video: 1920×1080 @ crf 16
1280×720   @ crf 16
Audio: FLAC 5.1 (24 Bit)
Subs: Track 1: gg-TakaJun (restyled)
Track 2: Retail (restyled)
1080p: Torrent
720p: Torrent

Notes:

  • I watched it in 1080p, but I can’t really tell if it’s worth the extra space. You decide.
  • If you watch this at normal distance to your TV, you shouldn’t notice most of the crappy parts. Looks quite good actually.
  • Part 5 is a bit huge because the entire movie was plastered with grain.
  • The chronological order of the parts is: 2, 4, 3, 1, 5, 6, (Remix,) 7, Epilogue. Watch it in this order if you want to have an easier understanding of the story. Or just watch the Remix after Part 6.

    Nice, glad to see you are doing this. I don’t know if the source really warrants 1080p but hey I’ll probably be downloading it anyway, lol.

    I gave up searching for the RAWs (and have absolutely no idea as to Thora’s ETA), so I guess I’ll be waiting here.

    A question though. “Subs: Retail”.
    So you’re going to simply give it a wee bit of a styling fix? Or change some vocab?

    downloading… (?????)
    probably to get the subs from gg-takajun…
    as usually coalgirls use third-party subs… not subbing herself…

    I read over at gg’s website that the quality for the movies (epilogue not included) was rather low. Do you feel like it really deserves a 1080p release?

    Not sure why I’m asking as I know I’ll download them anyways.

    @banger: Care to explain what about Takajun’s translation was horrible? Your comments sounds like trolling to me, but maybe you have good reasons apart from “I don’t like honorifics and eastern name order”, so I’d like to hear them.

    This discussion is pointless since 66/gg’s scripts for the Blu-rays will base on the retail subs anyway and I’m currently planning to take these.

    Listen…we all know the quality of the source. How about everyone quits their bitching and either download it or don’t. No one is going to disagree with you when you say this BD….well shouldn’t be called a BD. It is what it is. You think the DVD is better then keep whatever copy you have now and move on. The question should be 720 or 1080? Hmmmmmm

    Doing 1080p of anything but the epilogue is fuckingpointless.jpg since even the backgrounds are only animated at 720p. Enjoy your bloated upscale I guess.

    Any chance of releasing just the subs? I’m fine with the raws I have, and I don’t want to redownload all 7 movies + epilogue just for the subs.

    Thanks ChrisK, I have never watched this series before, but I am going to after you release it 😀

    Please give us some comparision between 720p and 1080p, when you release it, so we can decide if Full HD is worth downloading for 😉 (Or give us your opinion on that, please)

    @ChrisK: Will you be releasing some preview pictures?
    By the way, I was wondering if adding a slight sharpen (or warpsharp?) effect would improve the overall quality of movies 1 through 7.

    @ChrisK
    I was going to say the same thing. If people are so desperate for filters, I’m sure they could re-encode this release themselves. I’m happy with what you’re doing.
    Quick question, are you encoding the Epilogue in 720p as well, or just 1080?

    Would you mind changing the western name order and add honorifics, this show just need those things;)

  47. 2011-02-07 at 13:57:48
    Anonymous writes:

    @Zakuro – Why would you need western name order and honorifics in the subs? It’s not like you can’t hear them in the dialogue already. “This show just need those things”? No it doesn’t; that’s an opinion, it’s subjective.

    Personally, I think you shouldn’t mess with a perfectly good pair of subs. And if it really bothers you, you could always just edit the .ass file.

    I would also appreciate honorifics and eastern name order. I like that Coalgirls usually takes the time to do that. I like to read what I am hearing. It’s not a deal breaker for me, but it would be nice.

    Pretty sure that if the official subs suck which happens often enough, someone will release a version with the old takajun-gg one’s.

    @Boingman: read the friggin comments. GG releases their bd rips with official subs too, because those are good enough. Just needed few corrections here and there. Hence the [66] instead of usual [Faggots].
