Used only the best sources publicly available compared episode by episode for maximum output quality
Custom A. I. models made specifically for this type of restoration, extremely aimed at preserving all textures, linework and detail
Custom CC (Color Correction) (scene by scene sometimes when necessary) aimed mostly at restoring the intended colors of the artists/creators from cel scans but also based on the digital coloring of later seasons and with the aim to "modernize" and bring the aesthetic up to par to the digitally inked seasons.
Each episode is checked for faulty frames as a result of faulty interlacing and replaced manually whenever possible, we avoid the use of filters such as QTGMC and Daa() in order to not deteriorate the quality of the source before upscaling at all.
2160p output with correctly deinterlaced video when the source is the DVD, that means 29.97 FPS, as exporting in 23.976 will cause loss of unique frames and fluidity. Contrary to what some might say, we have proof of this.
No size compromises, 1x11m episode measures at about 7GB, this is 4K HEVC Blu-Ray bitrate. Our philosophy is that people can always encode at lower resolution/sizes if they want, but as far as we are concerned, we want to offer you only the absolute best.
The colors are fking crazy looking

hopefully this happens for Courage the Cowardly Dog
When fans do a better job at restoring traditional animated shows for free than actual studios with a budget >>>
The people behind the Simpsons should have hired these guys.
Why haven’t they given this show the 4K treatment before this?
This one of CNs best shows ever.

I guess it's about money, time and resources.
Downloading this I'll have to buy like 7 usb drives each one around 100gb. Building myself a vault with all these gems in their best condition
This is coming with english/spanish/french audio and subtitles !
Man I'm not normally a fan of AI upscaling but this looks incredible, animation might be the best medium for it
Damn they made it look like how s*** looks like IRL when you’re zooted
when everything in your vision gets mad saturated and hi def
