Walpurgisnacht Rising around Tokyo

Theater	Screen	Screen Type	Projector(s)	Comment
TOHO Cinemas Hibiya	Screen 4	IMAX (325 seats)	Barco (Laser, IMAX)	Less about the screen itself but sound mastering in IMAX version is a bit unfortunate
TOHO Cinemas Hibiya	Screen 9	Medium auditorium (251 seats)	Barco (Laser, 2K)?	Good color reproduction.
GDCS	Screen 12	IMAX GT (542 seats)	Barco (Laser, IMAX GT)	It's IMAX GT. That bit about sound mastering still applies here though.
Cinecitta	Screen 8	LIVE ZOUND (532 seats)	Christie (Laser, 4K)	Excellent color reproduction. Custom audio mix tuned by Youta Tsuruoka (the sound director of the show). One of the best places to watch, especially if you prefer big screen (downside is that Cinecitta is in Kanagawa).
Wald 9	Screen 4	Small auditorium (80 seats)	NEC (Xenon, 4K)?	Color reproduction is not too bad; equipment is probably similar to screen 7 but screen maintenance could be better and there's wavy lines in the brighter scenes.
Wald 9	Screen 6	Dolby Cinema (387 seats)	Christie (Laser, 4K)	Dolby Atmos-only version is excellent, but Dolby Cinema version seems to have some broken EOTF in some of the brighter scenes (gray-ish skin tone, etc). Not sure if it's Wald 9 specific or in general. Still worth a watch, though.
Wald 9	Screen 7	Small auditorium (80 seats)	NEC (Xenon, 4K)?	Similar to screen 4 but seems better maintained. Would actually prefer this over Screen 9.
Wald 9	Screen 8	Medium auditorium (251 seats)	NEC (Xenon, 4K)?	Quite OK color reproduction.
Wald 9	Screen 9	Large auditorium (429 seats)	NEC (Xenon, 4K)?	Sad color reproduction. The screen is also very dimmed. Sound seems a bit better than the rest (non-Dolby).
109 Cinemas Premium Shinjuku	Screen 1	Premium theater (68 seats)	Christie (Laser, 4K)	Excellent color reproduction and excellent image quality. Probably one of the best places to watch Walpurgisnacht: Rising. (Although I still like Dolby Atmos better for sound, and ticket is also very expensive).
TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku	Screen 2	MX4D (110 seats)	Barco (Laser, 2K)	Standard TOHO screen, 4D is not really my thing

• 2023年6月版 東京23区内シネコンの4Kプロジェクター導入スクリーンだ！ says that all Wald 9 screens are all 4K. I have no ideas why is their image quality worse than TOHO Cinemas' 2K screens…
• Supposedly 109 Cinemas Premium Shinjuku uses Christie CP4450-RGB and Christie CP4435-RGB while Cinecitta uses Christie CP4330-RGB. I still think 109 Cinemas Premium Shinjuku gave better impression (i.e. "sharper") because the screen size is similar to that of medium-sized auditorium versus a much larger one in Citta.
