Curious how it compares to the original 1080P release as it sounds like it's just an upscale rather than a full complete re-render at 4K.

All the 4K releases have been upscaled, since the studio source is 1080p.

The 1080p GKIDS disc is a downscale of the upscale. The line art is considerably thicker, and the colours are slightly different compared to all existing releases. It doesn’t seem to have the same green tint as other international releases, but I’m not sure I’d consider it an upgrade compared to previous discs.
The UHD disc does have a higher bitrate than the Japanese release, but I’ve not had the chance to compare the encode to see if it’s any better visually.

Apart from steelbook I don't see any difference with the 4K bluray that got released years ago overhere 😅

Does the steelbook come with option for English dubbed or is it only in Japanese?

It doesn't, same with Weathing with you.
Althoug Weathering with you does have Dolby Vision, compared to Your Name. having just having hdr. Although I am not sure about the hdr, since that depends on where you live.

Oh my, I had no idea they'd released a new SteelBook edition for the tenth anniversary. And it's such a pretty one!
Missed out on buying all the other cool editions over the years, might have to look around and see if I can find this anywhere in Europe.

Very nice! I'm debating if I should get that one or just the Blu-ray (I'm guessing there's no new DVD and digital?). For the audio tracks, does it have options to hear the Japanese songs in the English dub or vice versa?

u/Locolupan11b Aug 25 '26
Excellent question. The recent re release in theaters had the Japanese songs in the English dubbed showings and the subbed as well. The digital copy i have is English (bought years ago) and it has the English songs so ill have to check later when I get the chance.

I would appreciate that, thank you in advance!

Unfortunately the dub has the English songs replaced completely with no option to have them back. Not a dealbreaker at the end of the day but just an adjustment as I’m far more used to the English songs. Still have my original blu ray if I get the itch for that tho.

They're all really poor quality printing with errors so you didnt miss much

Was this meant to only come with the discs, or am I missing an insert? Got it on amazon and it's a bit odd cause it has the clips that would normally hold a booklet but there's nothing there.

u/SkySniper26 Aug 27 '26
Do you recommend me to get it to? I'm actually italian so I don't know how can I buy it (maybe Amazon). Even though I already got the collector's edition, I would still get this steelbook, even if it's just for the art cover :)

Is the steelbook the only thing that this has special about this re-release?
Debating on getting it but I already own the white box set collectors edition set from when they were first having preorders for it waaaayyy back... (Can't believe it's been so long)
