Thank you for this! OOOHHHHH MY SOURCE WHO WILL DOWNLOAD THIS! ADD 32GB MORE IT WILL BE 1TB! IT WILL TAKE ME 3 MONTHS TO DOWNLOAD THIS! I do not have hard disk capacity to download this!

Damn, Im just out of words!! Monumental Job man

I just downloaded an episode. The quality is really something compared to all other dragon ball z blurays that I have downloaded! Thank you! Nice work!

it looks like a good job for the new IMac

This must have taken months to encode without a supercomputer hihi...

DAMN...

Thanks. I'll check out the art book. > The quality is really something compared to all other dragon ball z blurays There's just the Season Sets other than this. And the 30A are basically a 4:3 AR, tweaked version with fake grain. If the 30A were to get a standard release (not to mention they're in "Season" format) this would still be an improvement over the OB and SS. Yes, I know the OBs look technically better, but overall they're all mediocre.

Just in case anyone wants to look at the comparisons, I took a snapshot from VLC: 1. Dragon Box [anime4life], 2. Orange Bricks Remastered [pseudo], 3. and this encoding. https://imgur.com/a/wEGWA6w

Holy Shit

Holy Shit thank you so much!

211411142314 What even is "anime 4 life"? Some pirated anime streaming website that offers a downloadable version? But I digress, even as such, it still looks vastly better. It just needs a color correction.

Dragon Box still looks the best based on that comparison

@Impakt I think anime4life is a release group.

Thanks for sharing. Wish I had the extra space for this.

Some version in 8bits please

Good luck with that. The artificial grain filters bloats the file size so badly that a x264 encode at this quality ends up larger than the raw episode file.

Just checked the art book and the cardboard boxes, and all that. - Artbook - Depressingly uninteresting and looks more like a bunch of scraps. - Cardboard Boxes - The artwork used looks actually really nice. - Discs - The disc art are almost like Dbox-like! What a shame FUNimation ruined what could have been an amazing release.

I am sure they are going to release another anniversary box down the line and milk the fans once again and fans are going to buy it.

FUNi definitely will. This is really just a "Collector's" Edition of the Season Sets in 4:3 AR. The only thing not scanned was the figure. ?

Is this a remux?

Very commendable job! However, this release doesn't justify taking up that much space, considering the footage is still cropped and the "smooth edge-like" effects were added in to make it look remastered. Would love to have these in 200-250 mb encodes.

There are smaller encodes on this site if that's what you want, but nothing in that range. Whatever you think about how much space this set is worth, the artificial grain filter bloats the file size such that an encode at the file size you're looking for would be artifacted to hell and back. If you don't think it's worth the space, then just don't download it. There's no point at all in downloading an encode that poor. Also... >the footage is still cropped Even the Dragon Boxes are cropped. It depends on how much damage there is on the edges of the film. Some episodes in this remaster have more visible picture than their corresponding Dragon Box episodes.

> Would love to have these in 200-250 mb encodes. Maybe a scene group or YIFY-like will make such rips. xD

Thanks for the hard work. This will be my definitive version when re-watching Dragon Ball Z on my larger TV. I still like the Dragon Box but it gets unwatchable sadly when watching it on anything over 50" Artificial grain or not this is very watchable and sharper.

tq for your hardwork,hopefully animerg or someone will compress this in smaller size like 400-500mb in the future...i hope..

Impressive work. I do not have hard drive for this now. This can wait. PLEASE SEED!

please someone could upload it to a direct download server like mega or googledrive my connection does not let me download. Thank you. Greetings.

is anyone seeding? 92% and it's so slow

Stuck at 87% can someone seed and i'll leave it up indefinitely? thanks

Wheres the Funimation version

Does anyone know how the Japanese audio compares to the recently uploaded OAB audio @ (https://nyaa.si/view/1208556)? EDIT: Changed spelling.

@ThorThe1 It's a different edit, but both are so much better than the set's native JP audio that it doesn't really matter. @DrakeSSJ257 Funimation version of what? @floodth3sky @cornbeatle I have been seeding this continuously. (45 TB and counting.) It's possible that you got throttled by your ISP after downloading so much. It's a big torrent.

When played on MPC-HC the subs aren't centered but moved a bit to the right...This doesn't happens to other releases like horriblesubs etc tho... But still, THANKS A LOT FOR SHARING THESE !!!

how can i crop the black bars left and right without losing any quality? i want it to be true 4:3 so i can switch to 16:9 if i should be in the mood.

So I decided to get this because I recently got unlimited cloud storage and bandwidth so I figured why not grab it, and I'm sooo glad I didn't buy the bluray set now.... The picture is really sharp and clear but the colors are way over saturated and the picture has a weird wobbly effect that gives me a headache watching it, which I believe is from them adding artificial grain to the the video. FUNimation was sooo close to giving us a good release, if they would have just left the footage untouched it would have been amazing... oh well, maybe we'll get a proper release in another 30 years. Thank you to the uploader though, your efforts are appreciated.

@SSJBejito It is impossible to crop the video without encoding it. The best you can do is encode it to the highest quality possible. This release does all that for you.

hope this is still here by next week because i have to order a new hdd to get this downloaded

Seed it, please.

someone could seed this torrent please is dragon ball z 30th anniversary https://itorrents.org/torrent/E2C9E737B06B8B3EDFB9B0A11682EE4123E75335.torrent?title=Dragon-Ball-Z-30th-Anniversary-%5BNEW-Encode%5D&__cf_chl_jschl_tk__=a278383578199e69a7573563b0a9178cf6853665-1601038102-0-AZE-K2qAVrKF673pxsUYK3KXlwERDasXioSOi1BVzpCbMzgyk1QGlzMpod8cfLkD-RTrYJix5Tyb0Y7mTRUsd6R4UEPkigqwKfdfOkHfTBneobuRe8anqd8YTVrgRi_61fgWWGoYVmwy7Bjo71j2ewIa4glz291KRp0xfTqC7yaRwMMkWSIONLFmJ1WAFcr2grgMGi6dcjle2mvk8ghxbSsKuQfMAJd0i0aWZ70lbq-jw92Y_1ojtCihrABMx7FyjkcyMeGaV3pEJg_j2gzXW3wmrUVfV2PYZecS7wjT1AyECQVGTxela7MZWE5-gWkk-AJcgId00E_-l1RsZeI9Bg4MMH6WrKCh0jtMdDY5danYrqp7lIHw5zRTzF3UKRoIza4TEKivgWnqy7D-cIkElcbCEbTdRkcAAp-aRkl-pWPx

Let's goooooooo!!! Thank you!

Please seed!!! thanks

16:9 version?

@gyudani1996 No, it's 4:3 (sadly it's slightly cropped). I found an other release which isn't cropped, and weighs around 100 gigs. Big minus is that there are no subs or dubs in your language. However, remuxing (adding) audio tracks is fairly easy (for example with mkvtoolnix).

Dot

Looks amazing!

Are there any plans to make each episode around 1Gb each without any loss of quality? I mean, is that possible?

Well, I went and bought a new HD just for this lmao! Now, please seed....I'm depending on y'all. :p Will help seed when done.
