Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso BD Volume 2

So it turns out there actually is a good video source for this anime (AoD), but they’re shutting down in December and thus only streaming the first ~8 episodes. I will use their video until then, but there’s no point in releasing a third of the show in 1080p and the rest in 720p.
BTW this was confirmed as 24 episodes if you hadn’t heard. Or 25, depending on how you count episode 00.

Unfortunately, even the best video source for this anime, Amazon, isn’t very good, so despite it being animated at 810p, I downscaled the encode to 720p so the artifacts are less noticeable. I’ll release 1080p encodes if the BDs are ever uploaded.
Also, next week might be slower since it’ll presumably have the ED.

Finally got around to this. The main reason I’m doing this is because our original subs were a bit of a mess due to switching editors and typesetters in the middle twice. While other BD releases do use our subs, I’d be pretty surprised if they fixed all the inconsistencies, or even knew what to change without being one of the people who worked on the subs originally (which I obviously am). I also improved some of the old typesetting as well. Although the main typesetter for this show put in a lot of effort, some stuff could be done a bit better with modern techniques. And there is of course the usual extra timing/typesetting/editing/QC polish every BD release gets as well.
As for the episodes/volumes, I’m encoding from the BD box released in 2020, which has 5 or 6 episodes per “volume.” I don’t think the video quality is any different than the older individual disc releases from 2014 since the filesizes are basically identical.

I decided to save updating the encodes for the first three volumes until the US BD release comes out due to the numerous issues with the simuldub. Also, I’m lazy and the encoding issue is barely even noticeable.
