[Cryon] Dragon Ball Z - COMPLETE (001-291) - 480p SoM DBX CC - AV1

This is a high-quality AV1 re-encode of Seed of Might’s release: https://nyaa.si/view/2057751

All credit for the underlying restoration work goes to SoM and everyone involved, this encode exists to provide a smaller, modern codec alternative while preserving the content and options of the source.

Release Goals:

• I focus on high-quality AV1 encodes rather than squeezing files down as small as possible
• Audio is encoded in Opus, which offers excellent quality and efficiency for lossy audio
• Feedback is always welcome to help improve future releases (the easiest way to reach me is via nyaa.si comments)
