This is my first larger project.
First of all, I'm going to note that sxales (the only release that wasn't terribly dated) was excluded from this comparison because it very easily desynced because of a different automated IVTC used. The source has a good amount of film grain all over, and my encode preserves it. My encode also uses Zewia-approved IVTC and has the correct aspect ratio (scoot W)
The sxales encode also seems to run a [nuke chroma denoise](https://slow.pics/c/SgQwkXkY), which is confusing because that was absolutely unnecessary
Second of all, it seems like all this movie essentially had was officials, which had an ellipsis/comma spam and was horrifically literal. It seemed to use an ellipsis to indicate they were going to split a subtitle (so, quite often). Originally, this was just going to be an encode, but I very quickly found this intolerable. I sought out an editor and a timer, but I evidently only found one of these. I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering most people tend to work on seasonals, but in any case I think this is your best choice, both subtitle and video wise.
The subs were also restyled because they looked [horrendous](https://slow.pics/c/jtaPdryy).
