THE LOST ANIME ICEBERG EXPLAINED!!!!! | Lost Media Stories!!!

[@blairwilliams3311]

Something that isn’t talked about is the lost ocean dub for dragon ball z and kai. There are clips online but not full episodes

[@DeidaraSanji]

Pokemon Producer from 90's: A story about bunch of minerals coming into consciousness won't be a hit. Haruko Ichikawa: Allow me to introduce myself.

[@ZMangz]

lol good point. Dr. Stone counts too.

[@akumatsutranslations]

Holy shit, this is the most comprehensive lost anime video I've seen yet lmao. Glad to see Hazedon made the list, and so low too! I've been looking for more of it for years now. It's an Osamu Dezaki work and even being a gag anime it really shows. Glad to see so many 70s works or older here ngl.

[@ZMangz]

Thanks for the love!! My guess is anime from back then wasn't stored properly unless it was a huge it. Sad to see so much old school stuff lost to time, but maybe it's out there somewhere

[@akumatsutranslations]

@@ZMangz Thank you so much for the reply! Also as for the reasoning, ahhh, not exactly! It's mostly just an issue of studios being lazy, as well as these shows being very expensive to remaster or digitize. I left a comment on the Hazedon article, but gag anime from that time is my favorite genre/I keep up with releases from that time a lot. Likewise, recently we've seen many works even from D-tier studios like Knack (see: Chargeman Ken or Astroganger) get remasters or other "lost anime get released after decades of being missing (See: Guzura 1987 and Kaba Totto, both from Tatsunoko Pro.) Japanese Studios tend to keep hold of the original reels even if they sell off other materials like cels, scripts, or storyboards The real issue, is that for one, remastering film or even just digitizing it, is a very time consuming and specialized process. In turn, this also makes it very expensive especially on shows with high episode counts. For a show like Hazedon that might not be super popular, often, studios don't see it as worth the money when maybe only a couple people would buy it on BD or DVD.

[@ZMangz]

@@akumatsutranslations Interesting! Didn't know that. Thanks for the insight.

[@DJAX-THE-ONE]

Yes Finally a anime lost media video that just doesn't talk about JJBA phantom blood. Love this video!

[@lookatdemijipers]

bro you are so funny, usually KZbinrs annoy me when they try to be funny but your sense of humor is lowkey and right up my alley lol

[@ZMangz]

I appreciate the comment!! No one ever compliments my jokes. Thanks for the watch!!!

[@Kittenfox_55]

51:03, I really hope more information can be dug up about Robo Crosser. It looked cool.

[@JV-nm1fy]

i actually grew up with the 4kids opening of One Piece during the time when anime was being ported.

[@ZMangz]

a lot of kids did back in the mid 2000s. i still have a weird fondness for it.

[@JV-nm1fy]

@@ZMangz Me too!

[@STVRSTUDS]

i’m so glad that you brought up lupin viii!! in 2012 i believe the whole pilot was released (it wasn’t too far into production so it didn’t have the voices). even clips of other episodes were released and it was turned into a manga later on too !

[@sunnysweetfool7499]

This was grear watch as I've been really obsessed with iceberg videos as of late but ngl i was curious if The English dub of an Short film called Genbanojo would pop up since this was a project done by Houstons anime convention; anime matsuri that was lead by disgraced VA Viv Mignogna. It screened in 2022 but hasn't gotten a digital release.

[@ZMangz]

I'll look into it! I plan to do a lost media update video sometime later this year. that looks worth looking into!

[@sunnysweetfool7499]

@@ZMangz I would suggest you try to get in touch with Jacob takanashi who was the leading VA for the project and has been working with the convention for years. He still has Genbanojo listed in his bio as a project he worked on so ig they're still trying to get it out. I actually used to be friends with him awhile back and he was really excited. I was actually at the con but I had misplaced my badge so I missed it I did see the qna afterwards. He told me the dub was going to be on a well known streaming service a few months after the con screening, Though that was a private convo so you do not have to take my word for it as that was over 3 years ago at this point and we don't really talk anymore.

[@madchameleonphotography6067]

Clearly did your research on this one. Hopefully some of these see the light of day!

[@ZMangz]

If I could find anything in this vid, definitely would be the Suzune movie cause I want to see what early hentai was like

[@MikeVonwolkenstein]

Awesome vid 🔥🔥

[@AnixDraws93]

I found this during my usual iceburg binge. You have a nice enough voice and i appreciate the humor when you talk about lost media topics, but then i heard TWEWY and NEO:TWEWY Music and well consider me a new subscriber 💖 (Also nintendo needs to make its IPs into anime again, Metroid would make a fantastic sci-fi horror, Animal Crossing shorts ft, slice of life stories, and Splatoon is right there for a sports anime-esque series)

[@ZMangz]

Fellow TWEWY Chad, thanks and welcome to the channel!!! We got the Zelda movie coming up, but I want a true Nintendo anime too. Fire Emblem or Xenoblade would make for sick shows imo. Same with Splatoon and Kid Icarus

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

Would like to see a Metroid animated series by Adi Shankar (the same guy who made the Netflix Castlevania series and is working on another one based on Devil May Cry, and is also planning an animated series based on....PUBG?!). Also, would like anime based on more obscure Nintendo IPs, too. Would like to see a kids' monster-collecting anime based on Fossil Fighters, a mature crime drama anime based on Famicom Detective Club, an anime adaptation of ARMS, anime shorts based on Nintendogs, and an anime based on Nintendo Land (for the anime, the titular theme park will originally start as a failed local theme park about to be demolished until the main protagonists meets Monita).

[@jefelix2010]

There's also the uncut Yu-Gi-Oh! English dub. Though it still has the voice cast from the 4Kids dub, it did however contains the original soundtrack from the Japanese version along with the script used in Japan, original sound effects, and no edits. Only a handful of episodes were made before it was sadly cancelled.

[@shelbybayer200]

The actual PPGZ did air in America though I watched it on Boomerang when I was 14 years old I'm 26 now

[@popcultureoverdosed]

Honestly, Japan is absolutely horrible at media preservation. They seem to place a lot of stock on exclusive content as opposed to be widely available

[@force28_]

wow what an amazing video! ❤

[@mrkaji8913]

I’d love that dubbed

[@tiffany-chan1235]

Okay, now this is a iceberg video that I can get behind! I love both Lost Media and anime. Still holding out hope for the JJBA Phantom Blood movie, or at least seeing more stuff found. I kinda wanna see a Metroid or Zelda movie TBH

[@ZMangz]

The phantom blood movie will hopefully be found one day. Big jojo's fan so i would love to see it. And I agree, a metroid movie would be sick. Hopefully the Mario movie does well!

[@mrkaji8913]

37:18 what an animated film

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

"A story about bunch of minerals coming into consciousness won't be a hit." (the plot would've involve a Tyrannosaurus rex fossil coming to life) And years later, Nintendo made Fossil Fighters.

[@maccamachine]

This video is great very interesting stuff

[@ZMangz]

thanks for the watch!

[@Sotau890]

Hey I do actually remember a eng dub of heroman on Disney XD

[@Apoc_realnotfake]

you should mention go for a punch I think it's a interesting lost anime. edit: it also goes by saki sanobashi

[@ZMangz]

I think I brought it up in this vid. Maybe in level 1...

[@reverseshin]

ZmangaZ please make a video about Jump festa 2011, there's so much lost and undocumented stuff about that event.

[@ZMangz]

hmmm i'll look into it. not sure if it'll be a short or full vid but I love lost stuff like that haha

[@tessfabled4115]

36:06 small balls which have magnetic animal features that pop out - same concept as Bakugan but marketed for girls.

[@mrkaji8913]

I remember watching 3 obscure anime on CN and I forgot the title.

[@ZMangz]

@mrkaji8913 as a chronic CN watcher there was so much obscure and weird stuff on that channel that I can't remember. Fun times

[@mrkaji8913]

@ there was an anime about kids with toy race cars, an anime with a dude that’s a mix of yusei and chase suno and he’s with two other dudes, an anime where there are these separate groups of teenagers with these phones/pokedex I can turn into certain creatures.

[@ZMangz]

@mrkaji8913 all of these sound vaguely familiar. I'll look into them to jog my memory

[@mrkaji8913]

@ thanks

[@mrkaji8913]

9:13 I wish they gave the show a film

[@dravenmartinez6311]

Kinda unrelated but there is actually another mega man anime that isn't nt warrior or wish apon a star there is a mega man star force anime based on the first game it even got an English dub

[@bicyclelife7088]

I collect animation cels and have come across LaBlue Girl cels with NinNin having sex, which was edited out of the US versions. At the time I didn't realize they weren't used so I didn't think to buy them as they are very weird looking scenes. I do have other cels from LaBlue Girl.

[@ZMangz]

👀👀👀👀👀👀 cels are super fragile. hopefully you have them backed up.

[@ScreamingAllTheTime]

Can you imagine if Kuchisake Onna episode got dubbed, given the style and humour of the Ghost Stories dub? If they were worried the face looked like a deformity, that dub woulda leaned right into that and been mad distasteful. Still woulda been funny tho

[@tessfabled4115]

31:22 wasn't this confirmed to be a wholly fan animation?

[@ZMangz]

I did more research and it's 99% confirmed to be a fan animation. Who made it is the mystery

[@Ekraelum]

If your main in TvC is Yatterman-2 I automatically trust you

[@ZMangz]

I played Yatterman 1 and Megaman Volnutt. Yatterman 2 and Souki were also fun

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

i love 90s anime

[@SmugStick]

Powerpuff girls Z never came to the US? That’s so weird, we got it in Ecuador

[@ZMangz]

Yeah. Couldn't find a definitive reason why it never made it to US airwaves

[@mrkaji8913]

2:53 I wish it was released and with a dub

[@mrkaji8913]

At least we still can watch the dic dub for sailor moon

[@mrkaji8913]

56:26 I know

[@mrkaji8913]

2:38 Funimation is the definitive dub

[@Masonicon]

Soar High! Isami is qualify as lost anime?

[@ZMangz]

Don't think so. Found the series online through a brief search. Not too familiar with it so i could be wrong.

[@mrkaji8913]

6:28 I wish there was a dub

[@akiraasmr3002]

Do u live in Tokyo? How did u become an expat? I really want to move out of the US.

[@ZMangz]

I applied for the JET Programme when I got out of college and moved to Japan after that. Best way to get to Japan imo

[@ZMangz]

@Lachie as long as you visit Japan and realize it's just a normal place and not like anime/games at all you'll be fine.

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

not sure if thats how you should say escaflowne

[@ZMangz]

Gonna be real. Watched the movie on adult swim way back in the day and never heard anyone say Escaflowne before

[@thatcomicandmangafanfromdublin]
