Please license this, Discotek! And also include the English dub (which is in the public domain). The public-domain DVDs of the dub are really bad with scenes randomly chopped out.
Even though Disney-esque and childish at times, it's got a place in anime history as the first color anime film with its vibrant visuals and effects. Supposedly it was an early influence on Hayao Miyazaki. I've seen both Japanese and English versions. Last edited by FLCLGainax on Wed May 08, 2019 10:42 am; edited 3 times in total |

Oh cool, it's the "ba-ba-ba-baam" film with the Panda. There are so many bootlegs and archival copies of this film. Apparently those that remember this love this film, as we get many translate works here. But this definitely needs a remaster badly. It's a historical piece of anime from a past time.

I haven't been this excited since I found The Little Prince and the Eight-Headed Dragon on an actual DVD recently. I love the old Toei catalog and hope we can get more of it. Pretty please bring us this remaster, someone.

This 4K remaster already aired on the Toei channel in Japan months ago, so this isn't being remastered solely for Csnnes as the title implies.

Please, someone license this piece of anime history! I've been reading about this feature for years, and would love the chance to finally see it.

Yeah woah. That's huge and hopefully means it gets liscensed soon. Diskotek or even Funimation seem like they'd love to get they're hands on it do let's hope.
Never atually seen the film in full but I do know its historical importance. |

This came out in the US many years ago as Panda and the Magic Serpent. There used to be tons of copies on both tape and DVD, usually for a buck each. I have one of the DVDs that Wal-mart carried in the early 2000s for a buck.
Sure would be nice to see an American release that did the source material justice. |
