Thanks, I’m happy to know that someone appreciated my work!

Are you going to work on the 4k mastered from the original camera negatives blu ray released by arrow? It has one major issue and it is grain reduction. Side note what’s your latest regrade and where can i find updates on your regrades?

Actually, there’s been no grain reduction, according to the guy who encoded the disk. The original photography is just a bit soft in spots. The Scream transfer has likely been artificially sharpened. Someone claims to have taken the Arrow version and put it into After Effects and boosted the sharpness to get it to look virtually the same as the Scream Factory.

Thinking to use the Arrow as a source for a new version, but can’t say if/when I’ll do that, though! 😄

I’m still gonna keep the Universal UK Blu-ray disc and this V2 BD25. Going to buy the Scream release more for the bonus features and the Arrow for watching the film. Haven’t gotten around to either.
Who cares.

How does this compare to the 4k ?

Fate is best Anime/Visual Novel.

Color wise? Better.
Audio wise? Better.
Definition? Worst of course; still some shots have bigger frame size.

It seems a great work. I’m interested to have a link to compare to my previous 4k download.

You should make an entirely new project but make it a BD50 instead of a BD25. With the source video from the 4K disc, audio from the ARROW BD and Universal Signature LD, and uncensored commentary from the Universal LD and/or early DVDs.
