Steins;Gate The Ultimate Enthusiast's Collected Edition

![alt text][logo] [logo]: https://i.imgur.com/veom4TP.jpg "Logo Title Text 2" ### Steins;Gate - The Ultimate Enthusiast's Collected Edition *The best picture quality, dual audio + the finest subtitles* The Dynit circle jerk continues... Here we have the best edition of Steins;Gate to date. The huge amount of banding has been reduced and detail that was lost on the JPBD has been retained and made visible by better use of filters(?) by mp3dom at Dynit. All I did for this torrent was mux and retime deanzel's great release with video from the ITBD so that you're getting all the same amazing subtitles (+italian subs from the ITBD), but now with the best possible picture quality. [27 Comparisons with JPBD｜Beatrice-raws｜Deanzel｜AOmundson](https://slow.pics/c/cPomRUEC) As you might know, Steins;Gate has *lots* of *very noticeable* banding which is most likely a problem with the master source, and because of that, every Bluray release of the series suffers from banding in varying degrees, with Dynit's release being the best case scenario thus far. The banding is not all gone here but I feel like this is the best we're going to get, It is better than anything else available for sure. The other big thing that stuck out to me was that the JPBD looks as though it has some filter or something applied that causes the lineart and other smaller elements to become smeared/smudged or them to even disappear completely in dark areas. You can find this occurring in many of the comparisons, for example check out the bottom right corner in comparison #4, where the lines have vanished on the JPBD but are clearly visible on the ITBD. Or in #5, look at Mayuri's hair and you'll again see that the lines are smeared on the JPBD compared to the ITBD, where they're actually discernible. If the file size is too much for you, I recommend you get deanzel's release (even if it does unfortunately use the JPBD's video) as a smaller alternative. 170 gigs for *one show* is a lot, but for people like me who literally don't care and just want the best possible version, this is the best choice. #### Specifics of this release: All tracks were retimed to match the ITBD.
