- ### Color adjustment
Just like the international version, Dragon Ball Kai 099-159 Japanese version suffers of an unpleasant green tint.
We used the same ajustement as TFC to improve hues, curves and other things.
#### **Disclaimer : This is a global color adjustment, not a shot-by-shot correction, so it's not perfect. The result is not like the originally intended colors, since it's not scene-by-scene correction. Whites are not balanced in TFC, so even after the adjustment, scenes remains unequally balanced as well. The only goal was to achieve something more pleasing to the eyes, less green.**

- ### Halo reduction
Bright halos around edges have been attenuated with Vapoursynth. Japanese version have stronger halos than international version due to a strong sharpening filter applied to the video. We attenuated them, but not too much to prevent any detail loss. This result in a more pleasant image than the raw Blu-ray.

### FAQ
#### - What are the differences between the Japanese version and the international version (TFC)?
Japanese version has several differences compared to the international version (TFC) :
- Fewer episodes (159 vs.167) : Episodes 099 to 106 are a condensed version of episodes 099 to 113 of TFC, and some fillers are removed
- Super Buu's eyes are always red
- Multiple openings and endings
- Japanese title screens
- More music, as tracks from Battle of Gods were used for episodes 99 to 106
- Some different music placements
#### - Why there isn't English audio in this release?
As mentioned previously, episodes 099 to 106 have a different editing and are mixes of different episodes from TFC, so it's not possible to have English audio for these.
Technically, you could mux english audio for episodes 107 to 159, which corresponds to 114-167 of TFC.
