There were many obstacles. Corrupt original files, yes they play but when something as complicated as reripping occurs the flaws in the data shine brightly and crash the conversion. But everything is in perfect shape to the best of my knowledge now. Im 99.999999% sure I fixed EVERYTHING. ##### ALL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE 720p to 1080p UPSCALE BY MAXINE NVIDIA ENGINE Its true. Artificial Intelligence removed SO MUCH grain, white noise, color inconsistencies etc allowed me to shrink ORIGINAL STUDIO COMPRESSED BLURAYS BY 22.3%. Then I had room to set the CQP higher on the rerip for even better quality improvement during ripping. STILL MANAGED TO FIT 60FPS +HEVC +1080P INTO THE SAME SPACE AS THEIR ORIGINAL BLURAY SIZED BUT VASTLY IMPROVED. _________________________________________ IF ANYONE WANTS A NON 60FPS VERSION OF THIS DONGHUA I HAVE THE ORIGINALS ALL CUT FOR EFC BUT NOT UPSIZED OR RERIPPED. iF i GET ENUF VOTES IN COMMENTS ILL POST THE CUT ORIGINAL WHICH IS STILL 720P. But not without enough votes. This upscale to me is so beautiful why watch the original washed out too bright faded colors gray blacks etc. when you could watch this. But, hey I am prejudiced of course. haha. ____________________________________________ ##### **NVIDIA ENGINE COLOR, CONTRAST, BRIGHTNESS, SATURATION WERE ALL ADJUSTED.** ##### **ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT was THE MASSIVELY EXCESSIVE BRIGHTNESS AND THE OLD GRAINY 720p 1988 type donghua. Their faces are BLINDING - my god!!** Please understand I battled with these settings because if brightness was brought under control all the tiny specs of light in the dark universe setting for all the battles disappear. Thats right NO STARS IN THE UNIVERSE. Well that **WONT** work at all. **So if anyone thinks that the anime faces in particular are still too bright its because I had to strike a balance between adjusting brightness or having any stars in the universe expanse of Space for basically 180-200 episodes with stars in them.** If it bothers you just adjust the brightness in potplayer or VLC a little. Fortunately, adjusting brightness after conversion all the stars stay in the expanse of space. I had to let the little stars shine and they do but I still was able to shrink brightness by 22% as well which helped the donghua alot. ___________________________________________ **From now on the EDITED FOR CONTENT(EFC) will be the BRAND for my** **Exclusive Edited Series which once torrent is started it will be upgraded and maintained REGULARLY unlike most things nyaa** **You can count on EFC to provide quality video cuts of popular anime and donghua Without all that video junk properly seeded on a seedbox.** **Requests are welcome** ___________________________________________ #### WHAT ELSE WAS DONE? I was going to RIP at 12 REF Frames like the original BluRay videos were but at 60fps 12 REF frames bloomed the archive to 325GB so I backed off to 8 REF Frames which I think is adequate for an original hand drawn donghua anyway. I tested 12 REF frames and it looked absolutely the same on 100" screen so I went with 8. I could at least see the improvement increasing from 4 REF to 8 frames but not increasing to 12. So its 8 which is still twice the norm. This donghua is EXTREMELY POPULAR - LEGENDARY actually to produce something this MASSIVE during a period of time when some computers still booted from FLOPPIES. What an incredible undertaking. To think some donghuas started in 1988 and in 2024 they are **still going after 36 YEARS. TRULY AMAZING!!** **All the originals are SEVERELY overexposed to brightness.** Run any color balance tool at all and it will tell you how wacked LOGH brightness is. All the blacks look 65-70% gray in the original 720p and everything looks really bright and overexposed. Everyones faces are SUPER SUPER SUPER WHITE. Way too freaking white and bright. It always annoyed me to have such overexposed black Cosmos during all their battles in deep space but I didnt have the time to tackle an 100-120 hour over 260 episode 300GB donghua at the time. But I finally got around to this BEAST. Trust me folks. I spent many hours testing different NVIDIA settings. This seemed the most balanced tradeoff of reduced brightness without going too far. I did my best in a very difficult trade off. NVIDIA engine didn't remove all the whitewash but killed a LOT of it thankfully. The cosmos is much blacker and colors are crisper not so washed out.. Peoples faces arent so BRIGHT now. They are STILL quite BRIGHT WHITE but at least theres a better balance now. I think this is the most balanced RIP of this anime I could produce without making all the colors vanish by going too dark or just giving up and not trying at all and live with the severe washout. **I think the Rips stand up well on 100" plasma screen here so they should suite ANYONE. (I hope).** **Just remember this is 1988-20XX animation. It will only clean up so much and 1080p will actually reveal some of the original flaws in the anime when enlarged despite using the best computer controls and filters. I've done my very best but it will always be inferior to computer drawn animation. The artificial Intelligence filled in many colors darker and if you play an original side by side the sky in space is MUCH MUCH blacker with all the whitewash removed..** ________________________________________________________ #### **SUMMARY** "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" is a science fiction novel set in the distant future. This is a MASSIVE work by Yoshiki Tanaka, a popular author who has created many hit works. Since the first volume was published in 1982, it has sold a total of 15 million copies as a long novel with 10 main volumes and 5 side stories. . Reprints are still continuing. From 1988, the anime series expanded to include an overwhelming volume of 110 main stories, 52 side stories, and 3 full-length stories, gaining even more fans. Then, in April 2018, Production IG produced a new REBOOT animation called "Legend of the Galactic Heroes Die Neue These." This work, which features new voice actors, fleet battles using the latest technology, and a new interpretation, will be aired on TV in the first season (episodes 1 to 12) and in the second season, "Seiran" (episode 13). ~Episode 24) will be screened at movie theaters in 2019. It became a hot topic not only for fans of Legend of the Galactic Heroes but also for a wide range of anime fans. From April 2020, a total of 24 new episodes, including the OP and ED, will be broadcast on NHK E-Tele. From March to June 2022, the third season "Clash" (episodes 25-36) and the fourth season "Scheme" (episodes 37-48) will be screened at movie theaters from September to December. Ta. From January 16, 2024, all 48 episodes from the first season to the fourth season will be broadcast on the Nippon Television anime slot "AnichU". ______________________________________________ #### **LOGH is composed of 110 Episode main story + 52 episode Gaiden + 3 movies + a 48 episode (so far) reboot Die Neue These. Its all in here.** THERES A 10240 CHARACTER LIMIT IN DESCRIPTIONS SO IF YOU WANT THE INDIVIDUAL STORY SUMMARIES, LOOK THEM UP IN MAL. ___________________________________ ALL IDENTICAL INTRO MUSIC , RECAPS, AND ENDLESS EXIT MUSIC HAVE BEEN REMOVED (Except for Episode 001 left untouched of each season and each gaiden) #### 84:00 EIGHTY-THREE hours of pure content - no interruptions #### (110) - 22 minute Episodes + (52) 22 min Gaiden + (3) 60-90 min Movies+ (48) 25 min Die Neue These suggest watching at 80% speed. the mandarin is spoken VERY fast and makes reading subtitles RUSHED and annoying IMHO. Potplayer is a fantastic video player and has special code to make spoken words sound NORMAL at slower speeds. To slow down just click the playback tab in console and click SLOWER and it goes down to 90% 80% 70% so forth with each click. Slower is ESPECIALLY useful when trying to learn another language as well. Other players have similar functions but the code to sound normal when slower is unique to Potplayer I believe. >>>If you enjoy my releases please help seed as much as possible. I only have 100Mbit seed ability so any help you can give is GREATLY appreciated by me as well as others trying to access this torrent. Cheers>>
