My story but with anime. Japan has some really annoying laws requiring their shows to be blurred and dimmed during fast-paced scenes and it absolutely butchers the height of good animations.
The Blu-ray releases don't have this issue, but guess what releases aren't available for purchase/streaming for English audiences. ๐ซ I want to give them money so bad, but ๐คทโโ๏ธ
what? why would that be a law? that sounds so pointless
It's an anti-seizure measure. Which makes sense for TV where kids might come across it by accident, but it doesn't make sense for streaming services where we could easily opt in/out of those versions.
is the opacity of the characters lowered as well? I feel like I can see the background through the characters
Sort of, but no. They're transparent because of the frame blending. Since moving objects/characters occupy different parts of the foreground across multiple frames, the background ends up getting blended into them. They call that "ghosting" because it effectively makes them transparent.
So they do lose opacity, but it's not like they're lowering an opacity value or anything.
