Miss Caretaker of Sunohara-sou / Sunohara-sou no Kanrinin-san Season 1 (2018) Both the USBD and JPBD are really bad but I ultimately settled on using the USBD due it having a higher bitrate and less banding. See the comparison. I have very little experience working with colors so I left them alone. I attempted some basic overflow and gamma adjustments but could not get them to match. I might come back to this one some day as I am not 100% happy with how it turned out. But I have already invested more time and effort than a show of this calibre deserves.
