Your Name has been released in different regions in 4k and some versions look awful, as far as i know there is no standard for HDR. Another thing even if we do get the 4k version who knows what kind of quality we would get. So at least for NA we will most likely only get the 1080p.
From the top of my head I know of 2 movies Funi has released(Godzilla and Your Name) that have 4k version but they never brought them over, only their 1080p versions. Subarashii right? Maybe not, if people are complaining about the Dbox being so expensive can you image what a 4k version would cost? Now maybe the Funi version will be cheaper? Well that's assuming they would even bring over the 4k version. They could potentially release 2 versions, one in 1080p and the other in 4k. I honestly don't see Toei ever doing this, they never even made a proper 1080p release. The chances of getting DBZ in 4k is slim to none. The damage and dirt aren't top priority for me considering how much cost would go into restoring 291 episodes in HD/4K.

'Course, a lot of work would be needed to get a nice 4K master out of Funi's materials, but I'm sure the folks at &transfer could do an excellent job with it, if they do it like the Levels.
Though it's likely still better to scan it at a higher resolution than to digitally upscale it anyway, so even if you aren't gaining much real detail from the 4K master, it'd still probably look better than the 2K master, or an upscaled 2K master, if you're watching on a 4K TV. So, 4K would be worth doing from 16mm, it's just that 4K is about where it caps out in terms of gaining useful information. So, 16mm would hold about 3-4K of resolution, in theory. 35mm film holds approximately 6-8K of resolution(A precise number has never been agreed on it's a debate that still goes on to this day).
As far as I'm aware, the series was photographed onto 16mm film, which I believe is somewhere slightly below 2K in terms of resolution (aside from a handful of Namek Arc episodes, which, for some reason, were printed onto 35mm film).ฤก6mm has about half the frame area of 35mm film.
