How's Rollsub's encodes? I tried the 1080p release this time from HorribleSubs, and the quality was good. It just sucks that the 480p version, besides being a lower resolution, is also a lot less smoother than the full HD version. Now I'll have to toss up between a hefty 400MB release, or a marginally acceptable 130MB release

Note the actual "encodes" are at 24fps, so the problem lies with the source, aka CrunchyRoll.
i tried the torrent but it didn't seem to have any seeds, so I stopped it.
