[EG] Victory Gundam BD - Disc 2 (8-14)

Sorry for the wait everyone, it's been crazy lately. These episodes were encoded way back in October, but I haven't had time to work on them since then.

Now this batch is unique, because it carries the last three 35mm episodes, and then switches to 16mm on episode 11. The results are not pretty, to say the least, especially because Sunrise applied some nasty form of DNR that didn't really scrub the image clean, more than it simply created a mess of "soft grain", that just muddied up the image. Combine this with some edge enhancement, and the 16mm episodes just look like shit.

To better blend these with the 35mm episodes, I've taken a "fight fire with fire" approach, and scrubbed the episodes further, mitigating the muddled grain in the process, and then applying my own layer of digital grain, approximating it as close as I could to the grain shown in the 35mm episodes. The result is actually a more compressible, but still grainy image that, in my opinion, is preferrable to the disaster on the BDs.

Specs are otherwise the same. I've left it in 1080p for consistency's sake, the filesizes should be lower anyway.
