A List of Known Native Resolutions

This page is incomplete!

This list is a stub and still very incomplete! You can help us by expanding it.

It can be difficult to determine the native resolution of an anime. Many encoders have already done a lot of research themselves, and this page documents the found results.

This table contains the following information:

  1. The show name, with a link to its AniDB page. Seasons are separated into their own rows. This may extend to certain specials too.
  2. The known native resolutions and kernels. This may be a list of multiple resolutions with additional information. in certain cases If a kernel is unknown, "unknown" will be written down instead.
  3. A confidence rating on whether this show is descaleable with current known tools and techniques.
  4. Additional notes and information.

Known Native Resolutions

Attention

Our knowledge on descaling is ever-improving. Some of these findings may be inaccurate and outdated! Take them with a grain of salt, and do your due diligence. Verify everything yourself before applying a descale to your encode!
