Special A
with Dual Audio (Jpn/Eng) and Eng Subs in DVD 480p HEVC

Reencode of [Exiled-Destiny] (x264 AVC AC3) to (x265 HEVC AC3).

Side Note: The name of this show is horrible to search for. Trying to find anything by typing ‘special a’ will bring up so many different things. I only found this by going through pages and pages of search results. That’s how I found the unofficial [Exiled_Destiny] release on Nyaa which is [Single Audio] only. Somebody mentioned they have [Dual Audio] available on their IRC. I went and fetched it and made this out of it. If anybody is interested in the [Single Audio AVC] [Exiled-Destiny] release and doesn’t want to search page by page, it can be found here:

[Exiled-Destiny] Special A (DVD 480p)
Format: DVD 480p AVC AC3
Size: 8 GB
Audio: Japanese only
Subtitles: English

Trailer MyAnimeList


Patch for Default Language / Subtitles Track
This comes with [English audio] and [Signs/Songs subtitles] as default tracks.
I included an xDelta Patch for those who rather like [Japanese audio] with [Dialog subtitles] as default.

Simply put all the video files into the Patch folder and run the patch file depending on your OS (for Windows: run ‘3.Apply Patch-Windows.bat’).
Consult ‘readme.txt’ if you need help.


Synopsis
Hikari Hanazono has always been able to do things that normal people cannot. As a child, she assumed no one could beat her—until she met Kei Takishima. Thinking she would win, Hikari challenged him to a match. But things didn’t go as planned; she lost not once but each time she rechallenged him. From that point on, she has sworn to best Kei at everything, ranging from academics to athletics.

To achieve her goal, Hikari enrolls in the same school as Kei—Hakusenkan, a prestigious institute for the wealthy. As a pair, they hold the top two rankings in school and are among seven of the academy’s best students in a class known as Special A.

While Hikari treats Kei as a rival, she is completely oblivious that he harbors hidden feelings for her. Together, the members of Special A deal with competition, friendship, and just a bit of love.

at long last, it was hell to find a decent mini encode for this, thanks a lot

I created an account just to thank you for this torrent
I was searching for this for a really long time and when I found it, the link of some episode were deleted
So once again thank you

You are very welcome =)
I was so happy too when I found it after looking quite a while. I must have overlooked it several times while checking the search results and came back to it multiple times because I was sure this must be somewhere. I was overjoyed when I heard that there is even a [Dual Audio] version available somewhere and just had to go after that one :D

Why reencode E-D when their encode was 350~MB/episode anyway (their encodes aren’t great in the first place). Just remuxing that with dual audio would have been better.

Trying to find anything by typing ‘special a’ will bring up so many different things.

I assume the issue was the term “special” which matches with any torrent with the word Special in the name. You’re supposed to enclose several-word searches with double quotes, so searching for "Special A" instead of Special A will make it much easier (restricting to Anime - English Translated helps too)

Oh you are right it works much better with these double quotation marks. It shows up then. Learn something new everyday =)

Regarding the encode. Wouldn’t even had to remux since the [Dual Audio] was already in the other version. Still managed to go 4 GB lower than what it was. I test everything with little test clips and adjust setting here and there and see what happens. If the relation of quality lost to size saved is bad then I just leave them how they are and put them into my collection as is. If I like how they turn out though I keep them. True they were fairly low sized already. This 40% size reduction was worth it to me though and the looks are still satisfying so I went through with it ;)

@neoborn do you know the difference between encode and re-encode?

What are you getting at

You found me out officer! :O

Ouch. Re-encoding a DVD. I can’t even.

So… is it just me or is everything out of sync on this? It seems weird that it wasn’t mentioned, so it makes me wonder if somehow i’m doing something wrong with this one set of videos.

Yeah, don’t bother with this torrent. Video goes progressively out of sync as it plays. Checked ep1, 2, and 20. Others probably out of sync as well.

Sadly the sync is completely screwed up. Might just stream it instead
