Contrast/Gamma in anime: if you have a perfectly calibrated monitor, do you think when watching anime, the contrast/gamma needs to be adjusted? I say this because, most lines around anime characters that should be solid black, are usually a dark gray when inspected closely on a properly calibrated monitor. Is this the artistic intent, or an production error for lines that are supposed to be solid black? What are your thoughts?

Pic related. Zoom in on any black lines here and you'll see they're just dark gray. If you used the "average grayness of anime characters outlines" as a reference point, you could adjust your contrast/gamma so that these lines are (on average) solid black.

No, I use contrast -5 but it's only my personal preference.

Retard.

Why am I a retard? Elaborate. You sound like someone who doesn't use a properly calibrated monitor.

What if all I see are unique shades of white?

You're watching Chinese cartoons, does it really matter how accurate the colors are?

I bet you stream anime and maybe on a good day use VLC too

1, 2 and 3 are black and 255 is white. What do I do?

>>158369318
Don't stream or use VLC but good guess though

>>158369196
Let me guess, you didn't care when funishit mangled the saturation either.

You'll see plenty of different colours used as outlines. Do you know that they're supposed to be black? Also you're autistic.

It's possible they were intended to be black, but then (((((VIDEO EDITORS)))) adjusted the color/contrast to get the "best customer color ratio" essentially fucking it up, making solid blacks turn gray in some instances.

99% of anime character outlines are gray, and that's gotta be wrong. It's clear the artist meant for these lines to be black most of the time, but ((((PRODUCERS)))) and ((((EDITORS)))) fucked it up, caring about sales more than maintaining the artist's vision.

You sound a little bit paranoid, or at least irrationally upset about something you have no proof of or reason to believe. You don't like grey?

maybe in your cucked dysfunctional mind.
