Judging from the entry description saying that this was never rebroadcasted or released on home video, I'm left to assume all we have are fuzzy images? |

That's what I'm wondering. It felt almost creepy seeing this pop up, with it being so old. |

kinda weird that this was added JUST now without context i believe that nakky16 might have the entire episode seeing how they have a lot of screenshots out of it? they also have the broadcast schedule of it |

Woah, this is nuts it has the poison scene that never got adapted- this is actually so cool I seriously hope we can watch it one day that it gets found or something |
No watch list sig cuz "You watch anime in 3 days or 3 months! Such is the proper way!" |

I would assume so. The only chance anyone has of seeing it again is if there exists a home-recorded Betamax or VHS of it and it's uploaded to YouTube. |
"Molly Ringwald" out right now - check my Linktree! |

It's really odd that it was added to the database today when it aired on March 26, 1980; almost 40 years on the dot. |

Well if there are 749 screenshots then there must be a whole video somewhere |

if it has scenes that were never adapted, that would make this quite a valuable piece of media... |

I'm guessing TMS Entertainment has it but isn't releasing it because they consider it embarrassing history. Hopefully they didn't have the same archiving practices of NASA and the BBC at the time. |

I have a penchant for unsettling things So I wish more lost media are recovered |
If you want to reply to my posts, come up with valid arguments instead of ad hominem HIGHER LEVEL THINKERS ONLY |

This is not an entirely lost media. archivists have the shit, but they will never share it with you |

Has anyone here tried reaching out to them regarding this ? I just looked into it and they do own a personal VHS recording of the full episode and has digitally converted it. As for sharing the file though she said she doesn't want to risk it for copyright infringement; which is understandable since Japan is notoriously one of the most strict in the world (uploading it would put her up to 10 years in prison plus a 10 million yen fine) They're an avid fan though and she's put in an effort messaging TMS Entertainment and asking others to do so in hopes of convincing them to release it. But sadly to no avail so far |

I wish she just uploaded it somewhere anonymously or lent her tape to a gaijin to do it for her in an effort to preserve this would-be lost media.

This definitely was an unexpected entry. I would love to watch it, but it's pretty much near impossible at this point. Who knows, perhaps it'll be released in the future, very unlikely though. |

On the plus side, I never knew this thing existed so learning that is certainly a boon. That during the big drama of the queen getting to court over the diamond necklace affair the antagonists went after her character by accusing her of being a lesbian, and that after airing that episode the company had a moment of "yeah show's over wrap it up next episode". Oh well, maybe it will pop up somewhere. |

Well holy crap this is insane. I never knew that the series was gonna be canceled in several regions and they made this episode! Glad the series still went on and many were able to see it in its entirety. Hopefully one day we will get to see this legendary piece of lost media in its full form... |

Damn what a crazy story. Hope this gets found but idk :/ Also, violating copyright law in Japan will send you to jail for 10 years????? wtf, that's literally overkill. There's a reason why I hate copyright laws, as much as I understand why it exists. |

I'm glad the screenshot is just a screenshot because then we would have to go through the pain of watching an anime through a screen recording. |
