Fine anime antialiasing

I am trying to encode .hack//SIGN and I've got an encode by KAA to compare. Those guys have lost awfully lot of details, but, on the bright side, they've got characters edge strokes smooth and thin. I tried many AA methods, and none could make the same result.

Here's KAA's encode


Here's my frame without AA.


Here's my frame with eedi2().TurnRight().eedi2().TurnLeft()


And here's my frame with triple tweaked "antialiasing()" script


As you can see, antialiasing() gives rather good result. BUT! It came to be rather unstable and gives heavy flickering in some motion scenes.

Does anyone know how I can make the edge strokes as thin and smooth? I tried asking around KAA, and they said their encoder is WoW addict, which they can't contact for months T_T
