Yeah, 300-350MB h265 is great for anime. The 1GB+ are fine and all, but I'd rather save storage space.
Anime encoders squeeze the most out of the h265 codec... Its astounding how they achieve great quality video for the filesize, even in scenes with fast motion or odd vignettes/filters
Even the highest quality anime isn't very complex compared to any live-action footage so it compresses incredibly well. The better groups also use vapoursynth filters to fix errors on the blu-rays like bad anti-aliasing and banding. So the best encodes will actually look better than a remux which is never going to happen with live-action.
