My post touches a lot of topics, and I’m not an expert in any of those.

Strong opinion inside.

One day, I’ve stumbled upon Kare Kano anime, but after searching for rips for a while, I did not find a single DVDRip I would consider acceptable.

So I thought: heeey, maybe I should rip the DVD myself?

I’m writing this post not to be informative, but for myself to be done with this DVD. Forever.

I wanted to read their file format, but it turned out to be harder than expected.
So I decided to write about the reverse-engineering process.
