1080p is an upscale, as it is with ALL 1080p anime.
Personally, I like the subbing job on it. I haven't seen any errors yet, and it does seem like very good editing to me.

All of them? How do you know that? Where did you get your information from?

As for this series - I tested it
As for all series - Avisynth resizer methods. Most of the 1080p that looks prettier than 720p is due to poor resizer methods. Which is fine, and makes 1080p have value. Heck, I get 720p instead of 480p for this reason myself. But, it's still an upscale.

Hmm, I don't get this. Could you explain that? If a 1080p upscale looks better than the 720p encode wouldn't the resizer method be good? I have no idea how these things work that's why I would come to that conclusion.

If on the Blu-ray box it says 1080p/720p, then it's both versions. If it says 720p only, then it's 720p only. You really need to give me facts and convince me that anime 1080p blu-ray rips from 1080p original source is an upscale of a 720p. This is what I need to be convinced with. If your pointing out at the original source of 720p being unscaled to 1080p then I can understand that.
Edit -- So who's doing Code Geass R2 Blu-ray?! ... THORA isn't doing it probably.

1080p looks better because TVs and BD players and stuff usually don't use more intense resizer methods, such as Spline64 or Lanczos4. They tend to use lighter methods, such as Bilinear of Bicubic, which loses details in the transition.
Tatsujin: All anime Blu-Rays in Japan are 1080p in their source format. Just like all TV in japan (save AT-X) is 1440x1080 or 1920x1080. But, just like you have station upscales, you have studio upscales in BD.
I can't show you Tears to Tiara 1080->720->1080 vs. 1080->1080 rips, but if it's OK, I could show you how some supposed "1080p" shows are upscales.
