We were saddened to hear of the recent passing of Eiko Masuyama, best known for being the voice of Fujiko Mine in Lupin the 3rd TV shows, movies, specials & more for decades. Not just beloved for Fujiko, Masuyama was also the original Cutie Honey, & more during her long career.

The video for Kenichi is pretty solid. It has a few rough edges at times (which you can see in the example shots), but it looks nice. The subtitles were translated with an eye to matching the same terms where possible in pre-existing Kenichi material. A few screenshot examples.

The M&E track (music & effects) for Kenichi was in rough shape. So we just wanted you to know the background sound elements in the new dub might sound not so great at times. It's what existed & we knew fans would want this dubbed.

Hurricane Polymar is a fun toku film & a great one to enjoy whether you're just starting out or a longtime toku fan.

Good battles, fun characters & humor, from Koichi Sakamoto, one of the greats of toku directing & stuntwork.

The video for Polymar is pretty good & there isn't much more to say about it past that. Audio is Japanese 5.1 & 2.0 w/ some really solid booming audio. Subtitles have been improved over existing ones used for a few screenings. A few screenshots of the video.
