Wonder Beat Scramble - Pilot & Profile

Fansubbing credits can be found in the torrent description in the above link.

Here's a little something I've been meaning to get subbed for a while now! Wonder Beat Scramble was an 80s TV anime show about the adventures of the Wonder Beat crew as they fight off aliens that invade human bodies in search of a key to the secret of life. Osamu Tezuka was a supervisor for this show and it happened to be the very last TV anime Tezuka was ever involved with before his passing several years later.

The now out-of-print DVD set for Wonder Beat S includes as an extra an early pilot version of one of the show's episodes, plus a short "profile" extra that introduces the show and its characters to the viewer. The character designs shown here are vastly different than their final designs used for the show later.

Enjoy!!

Sweet Home (1989) [LD] + Extras

  https://nyaa.si/view/1786505 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Subbed version of a 1989 JP horror film that's currently stuck on VHS/LD, but seemingly later went on to inspire the Resident Evil franchise? Not the movie, I mean the movie's Famicom adataption. When this movie was released on home media, the director sued the production company over royalties with regards to the VHS/LD releases, and over concerns about whether the movie would have been edited without his consent. The director lost the lawsuit, and since then this has not been re-released by Toho, presumably because it has left a bad taste in their mouth and they don't wish to associate with it anytime soon. I had known about this movie for a while now but wasn't prioritizing it in my "to-watch" list. It wasn't until I was approached by Kineko Video when I found out that this movie both had shitty English subs (not surprising for fansubbed Asian live-action movies, sadly) and a

Yu-Gi-Oh! - The Movie (1999)

  https://nyaa.si/view/1832479 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Another collab with Kineko. This time it's a LD Domesday rip of the 1999 Yu-Gi-Oh! movie by Toei Animation, originally screened at one of their movie festivals or something. Various rips existed online beforehand but I think they mostly originated from bootlegs, and you can probably already guess what the quality on those were like. The English subs were equally just as bad, so after Kineko transferred their LD copy of it, I stepped in to make new English subs from scratch. This is now also subbed in Spanish as well, having been translated from the new ENG subs as the main base! English will be the default language here but you can switch to Spanish on the second sub track. Bonus content includes a trailer, hi-res LD scans, the LD's analog audio track as a separate audio file (de-clicked & de-noised by me), as well as an HD film scan of a rush print containing several minutes of WIP footage of the

Devil de Story (1983)

  https://nyaa.si/view/1763447 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Our first 2024 upload! A mysterious—and possibly lost—film from 1983... This popped up for sale back in 2022 with little to no info online—it was listed for an abysmal price but me and some folks from Kineko were able to obtain it securely with our crowdfunding efforts. The TLC'er on this project concluded that this was likely made by a talent agency with the purpose of promoting its actors. Considering this is the only film they showed up in, I don't think it went the way they had hoped... Anyways—hard to describe what kind of movie this is. Some guy wakes up in the desert with an alien girl and uses some "tickets" he had on him to take various glimpses throughout his life, starting from when he was a child and leading up all the way to his appearance in the desert. He despises being "ordinary" and attempts (unsuccessfully) to be the exact opposite. I'm not sure what the endin
