Yes, mine is 50/50 mix; I'd like to test some screenshots more, but they should be subtitle-free to be feeded to my colourmatch script... of course, a short clip would be better.

IIRC though, the japanese HDTV color grading is not the same of the DVD and/or laserdisc, am I right?

Looks like the non-anamorphic DVD is closer to the new HD master but still not exactly the same:

R1 DVD/JPN HD/Cinemax HD (Far from the exact frame)

I assume the DVD's look was created with blue filters and gels and the new HD was created via digital color correction. What does the LD look like? I have to say of the three, I like the DVD's colors best.
