Did they actually find a master copy to be able to do this? I thought this wouldn't be possible as the highest quality available was a telecine digibeta.

Maybe they do have the og negatives.

Maybe they do have the og negatives.

They must have found something as that digibeta has been the highest quality available for decades, the masters were lost not long after its initial cinema run.

This raises the question: will Sony force Kadokawa to become as puritan as Playstation? Ecchi manga artists are probably sweating (more than usual) right now.
