Why do so many people on this forum live in fuckin winnipeg

40C in the summer, -40C in the winter, mosquito clouds so thick they can kill livestock, and Brian Pallister. Only places you can escape to are space and the internet.

hahahaha a buddy has a french VHS dub of DYRL from the early 90s that he transferred to an as-good-as-possible-480i version, and it's even worse than I remember:

here's a non-even-4k still of the exact same frame:


lol here's a still from the first scene of Lain.

and the 1080p bluray

did pioneer add in the lens flare for the VHS?

VHS is just so much warmer. the stills don't even convey the lovely tracking errors:


i probably have this tape in my mom's attic somewhere

Them not using that is just perplexing. Like that track I linked is like super blatantly ripped off an existing band’s poo poo, but they used the movie version of Cha La La for the ending to the Buu arc, so idgi.

Those VHS tapes have subtitles, which were objectively inferior to 6-th gen copies that came with a printout of the (poorly translated) dialog, lacking any information about who says which lines.

There's absolutely subs out there, though I don't know if this was retroactive fansubbing after the popularity boom in the west, or if it was in the early days of the fandom.

A handful of episodes of the original season have been subbed as far as I’m aware but things didn’t really pick up in regards to that until around Diamond & Pearl.
