8:32 PM 1/11/2026New raws for The Magnificent Zubat sourced from the Blu-Ray box. Main Video: 10-bit x264, 720p Extras video: 10-bit x264, 480p Audio: AAC Series is pretty good. There is DNR, but it's less heavy than, say, Gavan. Biggest issue is that some of the previews (and only previews) have color grading issues. One frame will be fine, and the next will have a red tint. Extras were included on a reprint of the bonus disc from the 2004 DVD box. Given the things I learned since making the DVD raws, I've redone everything there. Hiroshi Miyauchi's Location Scouting Trip Made for the 2004 DVD box set.
