Wouldn't know, I sold the R3K 2.0ch yesterday. Picking a DVD set of this show is about the lesser of evils really. The R3K 5.1ch set (which was $30-40nzd cheaper than the combined R1 remix volumes) will tide me over until this series sees an HD remastering. I'll take caps of the 5.1 set once I get it.Shingster wrote:Is the dot crawl on the r3k as extensive as on the r1?
They also need to remaster Evangelion again, christ knows why the 2003 Renewal Project wasn't done in HD. Gainax will undoubtedly re-release the series (and End) in promotion of the new Eva movies coming in a couple years. (The R1 Platinum releases are all interlaced BTW.)

You're right - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=KIBA-91401 . No remaster though, Rebuild is out this year.EvaUnit02 wrote:They also need to remaster Evangelion again, christ knows why the 2003 Renewal Project wasn't done in HD.

Afaik Gainax still have all the cells bar some that were stolen/prizes so perhaps they might redo the whole series over one day. I doubt they can get a decent looking HD version from what they currently have.

Indeedy, back when I bought vol1 of the R1 5.1 remixes I was quite shocked at how bad the dot crawl was. In comparison to the standard R4 discs (whose transfers are much darker) I seem to recall a noticable reduction in dot craw, so I assume Madman used a comb filter on the image. As you say though, when it comes to Bebop all regions have problems, and it ultimately comes down to choosing which poison you'd rather swallow.Lourdes wrote:It's a composite video issue so it'll be just as bad. If they'd used a comb filter or anything else you would also see a reduction in the rainbows.Shingster wrote:Is the dot crawl on the r3k as extensive as on the r1?

All versions look like crap; I'm holding out for the remaster. Shouldn't be too long now really, Sunrise has been on a remastering streak and redone loads of their old shows in the last couple of years (Votoms, City Hunter, Outlaw Star, Gundam, Gundam 08th MS Team, Gundam 0083.) Cowboy Bebop and Escaflowne are the two biggest shows they've still got left to do.
As for Evangelion, I'm pretty sure the existing releases were from an HD master, unfortunately it was most likely from a bobbed 1080i telecine. The colours are pretty crappy too at times and there's bleeding and whatnot, so yeah, it could really do with a new remaster.
