There’s been some hot debate recently about color correction in anime (*cough* Sailor Moon *cough*) and the “right” way to go about it. Here’s an example of why color correction can be so difficult. Both of these come from VHS tapes in my collection, and do not have any filters applied to them. See how different they are? I’ve heard that this type of color fading is due to film deterioration, but I’ve seen others counter that claim… so I don’t entirely know for sure 🤔 There’s also the subject of audio masters, but that’s a WHOLE other can of worms, lol.
