Canvas 1 01/02

Just to complete Canvas collection, I'm also re-releasing Canvas: Sepia-iro no Motif OVA.

Although Animeforce release supposedly uses DVD source, it has the following problems:
1. It is hardsubbed.
2. The first episode has horrible video quality.
3. The second episode has horrible typesetting with lots of 3- and even 4-liners.
4. Aspect ratio is incorrect. 

Screen comparison between Animeforce and this re-release

Note that this OVA contains a couple of minor hentai scenes.


Video: x264 704x480 VFR ~1147kbps (crf 17)
Audio: Japanese 2.0 AC3 192kbps
Subtitles: English softsubs (.ASS), translation by Animeforce

  1. Nice Work on the first episode. The quality difference is major in this case.

  2. Wow, the difference is like night and day. Far more details visible in your version.

    But you forgot to mention the uncropped black bars and terribad audio quality (56 kbps mp3) in Force's ep 1. 2nd episode's video is better but still bad, with so-so (128 kbps mp3) audio. All in all, definitely worth a re-release, even though the original was DVD source.

  3. Hi Kaishakunin, thanks for the releases. You should really post your torrents on http://www.tokyotosho.info. It will get you a lot more exposure.
