Really? Haven't kept up with the news and I honestly forgot about this. That's great news if true.

So no grain reduction?
How are the colors?
Is this an AI upscale or the Dbox master on Blu Ray with less compression than the DVD?

Mind posting some screenshots?

It was someone on kanzenshuu but yeah here it is no screenshots or video yet sadly. https://www.kanzenshuu.com/forum/vie...46985&start=60

Not good enough

We need screencaps ASAP

It looks like most things Dragon Ball on DVD & Blu Ray are discounted for a limited time on Amazon if anyone needs to fill any gaps in their collections. I was able to pick up most of Kai for pretty cheap.

If he has a PS4/PS5 or an Xbox he could use it to take screenshots even if they're not totally accurate, it's still something as a sample.

Until we see some screenshots, have to remain skeptical.

Is that a mistake? That's too small.

The French Blu-ray actually looks really nice. Finally, something better than that serviceable release by Selecta Vision.

What happened was I downloaded it to my phone and when trying to upload it came out as small. how do I prevent that problem because I have another show upscale comparison image I like upload?

Ok i saw the pics and it looks great. They color corrected it and white balanced it, the level of detail is noticably increassed over the Dragon Boxes. So far i'm impressed and if theyt keep this up this will be the best releasse of DB by far.

Holy shit I can not beli eve this is actually happening and it has Next Episode Previews and everything. My god this is a miracle.

Fingers crossed though because it i's only like 68 episodes but so far this blows anything that's out there. Good job remastering team. If this is AI upscaled then it is vastly superior to SV efforts.

I normally open the full image link, save it, then upload it on Imgur or wherever. This way it tends to stay alive longer.

Is there anyway to check when the next volume is supposed to come out like ETA? I hope they don't take as long as SV has been taking with their own upscale of Z. Actually if the results are this good then I hope this group does Z and GT next after DB.

From what I hear yes no joke this is a ai upscale I’m shocked it’s ai upscaled because it doesn’t looked ai upscaled at all to me.

Frustrating though it is, I have a feeling that if/when Kai - The Final Chapters gets re-issued the audio problem on the dub track will still be present.

I would be content if what's on the Crunchyroll app is present on these DVDS. Intro/Outro with original logo and Jalanese credits, Japanese Title Cards, and I prefer the slight difference in colors.

audio issues? aka lack of subwoofer use for the dub or?

My god this looks so much better than anything out there. I don't even care that it's possibly an AI upscale. Absolutely crazy they color corrected this and made it look this nice. I wonder how extensive the job was but so far these screencaps look fantastic. I'm hoping that they do Z next with this method. Props to those guys doing the releasse. They are putting everything else to shame.

Kind of sad about SoM though. I hope those guys won't discouraged from putting out the Dboxes color corrected.

Still getting this though. Have to support releasses that are worth supporting.
