I've been trying to find this for years. My grandma rented it for me from a Wherehouse when I was like 3, maybe 5. I had to scroll through every anime on imdb released from 1970 on to figure out what it was as I could only remember bits and pieces. Thank you!! I can finally put this nostalgic mystery to rest
Hello from Israel, most of my childhood I grew up watching this movie for years and years, I watched it, it is an essential part of my childhood. And I thank you so much for putting it on TH-cam, thank you very much ♥️🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Thank you so much for the hard work you put in to remaster this old classic, I remember as a young tyke I had this movie on VHS, it's one of the only movies I would watch back to back on repeat. Brought back so many fond memories.
Fan efforts like this are always just so pleasing. Incidentally I see you labeled the last chapter "unfulfilled sequel bait." Thing is though I do recall reading once that they did release a second Ninja the Wonder Boy movie on VHS. I never owned it, and it could be kinda rare (its not like the first movie itself is so easily found) but let us not abandon hope! Maybe someday someone will fansub the Japanese original.
Oh gosh, I loved this movie when i was a kid! Thank you so much for posting it and for the effort it took to put it together (Yes, i read your description and im impressed by your dedication!) :) And thank you so much, because now i can finally see the rest of it! I can only remember seeing the story up to Delilah's entrance. Yes, i know weird coincidence with the name. :D
I had this on VHS when I was younger, but I remember the intro being different. All of the clips shown were actual scenes from the movie, and Duke never got sliced in half.
Yeah, I noted that in the description, but very true. The opening and ending credit sequences are the only spots I used some unused footage from the rest of the TV series rather than putting the original clip montages together 1 to 1.
I remember this as a kid, My Mother hated it saying the entire movie was crying or yelling (funny considering all movies currently which makes this movie seem like a silent one) I just wish this Movie/series could have properly ended.
Fun fact: "Ninja the Wonder Boy" (AKA "Manga Sarutobi Sasuke") is owned by the same people who own "Chargeman Ken." Thanks for sharing this. I grew up with a VHS copy of it as a kid, so you know this brings back nostalgia, but it cut off when the purple guy becomes a giant and scolds the girl with the glasses. Now, I'll finally get to see how it ends.
I could have sworn I recognise Duke Hayakawa's (Original Japanese name: Sarurobi Sasuke) voice actor: The same voice actor who voiced Peewit in the movie Smurfs and The Magic Flute.
WHOA!!! Fucking nostalgia overload just listening to the song start. I use to rent the hell out of this tape from The Wherehouse back in the day. I must have fucked up that tape because after the last time I returned it, it was never put back out on the floor. Thanks for the memories.
At Least unlike 4Kids they didn't call Onigiri Donuts LOL, calling them Riceballs was Far closer to the actuality of them and this predated 4Kids by what 1.5-3 decades ?
I know this movie was basically a splicing together of various pieces of episodes from a full series, but does anyone know if it is true that it was released in the West originally as two feature movies or is that just a myth?
I remember listening to a Monogatari vs Wild Wild West Mashup from this channel but can't find the video anymore. Did you you take it down due to copyright? I really want to listen to that song again.
Yeah, unfortunately Sony Music completely copyright blasted it like half a year ago. If I can find the original file I made, I'll maybe see about reuploading it somewhere else.
I hate this. I used to watch the Arabic and Japanese version when i was like 8-10 and those were pretty good. The English version wanna make me poop myself. 😂😂😂😂 This is very... interesting tho.
Had this on vhs in the 80s. Felt like a kid again😊

There’s a 4K restoration of Manga Sarutobi Sasuke on Knack’s TH-cam channel.

@@secefeces by chance what was original series called ?
@@demonic7610 Manga Sarutobi Sasuke
@@secefeces TYVM I do wish could get full animation which I know exists but hard to find. because now its likely lost media.
@@demonic7610 y'know, I've seen similar efforts get tossed up on archive.org. If I have time sometime, I'll see about tossing what I have up there.

Anime doesn't have dubs with badass music anymore =(
First and best anime ever for me❤
A Treasure of an Anime Film regardless. ❤️ Thank you for the remaster. 👍

Duke hayakawa - sarutobi sasuke
Saizo - Saizo Kirigane
Iron Mike - Miyoshi Isan
Magic Lantern - Unno Rokuro
They were the sanada braves
