Thanks. Any chance you could upload the first volume of [Gigant](https://www.comixology.com/GIGANT/comics-series/143156) (from the same author as Inuyashiki & Gantz)?
@PROThomas A majority of the pages in these releases are saved as PNG4 (16 colors) which saves a lot of space compared to JPEG as I would've done before.
The images are cleaned beforehand so they're pretty much better than the source's JPEG compressed images. Even if this is technically "lossy" it looks better than if JPEG was used while being only a fraction in size. I only use PNG4 on pages that only have just lineart and halftones/screentones, where having less colors makes no difference. For those with smooth grayscale gradients and a lot of minuscule detail (think Made in Abyss and its paper texture) I keep it at 8 bits (256 colors) to retain detail, and lastly, JPEG is used for color images. I go through all the pages of a release to decide what to use for each page. (mistakes do happen, but I've seen only one in the 100+ releases that followed this workflow)
This is Ground Control to Major aKraa
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirt you wear
Now it's time to work on [Trinity](https://factpile.fandom.com/wiki/Holy_Shonen_Trinity) if you dare
@aKraa. Amazing upload! To reduce the file sizes this much without losing quality. Best upload in a while and with this Tokyo Ghoul is complete. Thanks!
@aKraa, I understand the process you described. Which program do you use to batch convert to PNG (4-bit and 8-bit both)? I'd like to try it out with some of the manga I already have and see the results.
@aKraa, I am having a little problem with this release, can u help me with this, I am having some pages show up with a more yellow color tone, and the rest look more white, they are a select few pages, but kinda annoying, do u have any fix for this, or know what's causing this.
Hi, aKraa, can you upload in original full quality? This doesn't mean i don't like your world, but i would like watch in original quality and resolution. Thank you.
thanks for sharing this release
Main differences that I found was the resolution (height 2475px versus 3056px from another release) and some white compression (or made proposital?)
