Year: 2007
Video Quality
Japanese Version: ****/*****
American Version: ***/*****
I want to make it
clear that the lighting in both versions has been increased, revealing things such as strings. This was slightly embarrassing
for me. The Japanese version has a bit of artifacting damage apparent. Ghosting and transparency occur throughout. There is
a teeny bit of print damage throughout. The American version, on the other hand, is horrible. Speckles, hairs, scratches,
and fades are clear throughout.
Audio:
****/*****
The Japanese track is pronouncedly loud. It is without audio
levels being played down. However, the American version is less fortunate, the audio often being oddly warped by tampering
with the audio levels. However, the bass on the musical score, particularly Ghidorah’s theme, is raised significantly.
