Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon Kanzenban v01-06 (Perfect Edition) (FitWeeb Experimental Repack)

Original release by Miss Dream and bloat removal by FitWeeb Repacks.

Warning: Experimental Repack using latest technology.

If you have the remaining volumes please seed them and warn me, so I can debloat and share them. Big shoutout to July, Romao and the JPEG-XL discord server. This release wouldn't be as debloated without them.

Understanding JPEG-XL

Viewer with JPEG-XL support: https://github.com/d2phap/ImageGlass

JPEG-XL is the best image format I can think of and I hope it gets massively adopted or that an even better codec gets mass adoption instead. What I like about JPEG-XL is the ability of encoding JPEG images into reversible JPEG-XL losslessly. What does "reversible" mean? JPEG-XL, instead of decoding the JPEG into pixels before compressing, will compress the JPEG. After that you can convert the JPEG-XL image to JPEG using their reference software, libjxl.

cjxl input.jpg reversible.jxl -e 8 -I 1.0 -E 3 will encode the image into a JPEG-XL.

djxl reversible.jxl reversed.jpg will reverse the image back to the original.

So, if you want to edit them using non-supported software, like photoshop, you'll have to install libjxl. You can download a static build from here.

By using image magick you can compare to see if there is any difference between the two.

magick compare -metric AE input.jpg reversed.jpg diff.png will output the number of different pixels between the two images.

Repack information

All colored pages were encoded in reversible JPEG-XL and all grayscale pages were encoded in PNG. This because compressing the grayscale pages in reversable JPEG-XL wouldn't compress as much as PNG. I could have done cjxl input.jpg reversible.jxl -j -m -q 100 -e 8 --strip -I 1.0 -E 3 to compress lossless JPEG-XL and have better compression than PNG, but that would be painfully slow on my machine. To compensate, I archived every volume individually in 7zip.

The overall size was reduced from 26GB to 11.5GB, resulting in a reduction of aproximately 55.5%.

FitWeeb, removing bloat from weeb shit since 2021.
