Re: Actress Kinjo Mana (Tatsui Ui, Ryusoulger) passed away

She was very lovable.

I really enjoyed her on the series.
She had an adorable hairdo that reminded me of one of my Japanese classmates from university that I had a crush on.

Re: What's your TN origin story?

Well I've been following TV-Nihon for about 11 years now. Around 2007-2008 I was rewatching classic Power Rangers and eventually learned about Super Sentai, leading to TV-Nihon and that opened the floodgates. I ended up acquiring my first WD 500GB hard drive in 2009, eventually needing a second one ...

Re: Keitai Sousakan 7 Blu-Ray Revisit Project FAQ

Thank you for the cover scan. And congratulations to a successful first scan. :lol: Yeah, that framerate discrepancy threw me off at first. I was a little concerned at first since some parts of the original 720p versions of KS7 had some of the same motion issues that Cutie Honey THE LIVE in the firs...

Re: Keitai Sousakan 7 Blu-Ray Revisit Project FAQ

I noticed that the frame rate on the Blu-ray's is listed at 29.97 fps. Is there a reason why it is down to 23.976 for the finalized version? Is it something to do with conversion from interlaced to progressive from the source? Also was the Blu-ray source listed at 1080i? I've tried to find a reverse...

Yeah, I remember something about that. I think it has to do with bandwidth saving for broadcasters or something.

Blu-ray is the best source (obviously) for true 1080p material and (eek!) 4K.

Re: The trouble with raws

I honestly don't know. We suspect that it's poor quality Taiwanese hardware, cobbled together by pirates, and miraculously openly sold on Amazon Japan. To actually answer your question, the program needs to initialize the TV program, and for some reason it won't load. So usually the video will say ...

I completely forgot about her there! I marathoned Shinkenger recently.

There's always a future Blu-ray source, if necessary. Whichever works for you, I guess.

Things are starting to pick up a little more.

Re: Shenmue 3

This is awesome.

Hoping that a PS4 physical version will be made in the future.

(The announcement at E3 came minutes after the Final Fantasy VII remake announcement. People went crazy for both!)

Re: Ryuki HD op and music karaoke released

This should be good in order to know what to expect. Anyone follow how Star Trek: The Next Generation was remastered for Blu-ray? They (CBS/Paramount) took the film negatives and rescanned them, and the difference was tremendous. I wonder how they (Toei) did it for Ryuki, and for how the other early...

Re: ZyuRanger to be released on DVD in US by Shout! Factory

I tried to watch the official subbed Digimon Adventure 02 a few years ago, and it was jarring to see names and references replaced entirely. I just didn't like it. If memory serves, that was likely the translations that Toei's company did. Shout Factory likely will use a different translator than t...
