#### A reasonably-sized encode of the amazing [color corrected release by Seed of Might](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1691912), including all fixes from the Drive as of this upload.
Please note that I am not an experienced encoder, and this was made primarily for my own collection. My goal was to get file sizes down to around 100GB with hopefully minimal loss in quality. I'm sure someone with more knowledge and experience could make a better and/or smaller encode if they want to.
This encode only covers the main contents of the SoM release intended to be used as a master (Eps 1-153 and SP1-2). As such, most extras are omitted.
Additionally, redundant subtitle tracks have been removed in the interest of decluttering.
Both Funi dubs are included because I don't want to make a decision on which is better, and the incomplete BLT and Harmony dubs are also included as an optional download.
File names and folder structure are intended for ease of use with Jellyfin (or other media servers).

Full credit and a massive thank you for everything used in this encode goes to the amazing team at Seed of Might. The work they put into their release is beyond amazing.
And finally, obligatory "please seed"!
Kind of sucks for the dub fans that you didn't include the dubtitles from the original. Doesn't affect me, but it's not good for the people that want to watch the English dub.
Why didn't you use the broadcast audio for the specials? The Dragon Box audio is objectively inferior to it, and the broadcast audio was available in the files you got the video footage from.
@tecobellkun I didn't include dubtitles because I find them redundant, personally. Same reason I didn't include the Japanese and unstyled subs.
As for the specials audio, that may have been a mishap if the original files had both. Sorry about that.
