At the beginning I agreed with all of them except Mary and the Witch's Flower and Kiki: Delivery Service, but after thinking about for a while I have to accept that it's a really good match. What do you think about Lady Snowblood 1 and 2/Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2?

If any chambara deserves release in NA, it's Toho's, TV Asahi's and TV Tokyo's "Nemuri Kyoshiro" series. AnimEigo issued videocassettes and laserdiscs of Daiei's first six flicks, then three quadripartite DVD sets of the dozen in which Ichikawa starred under the title "Sleepy Eyes of Death."

However, the anteceding trilogy of the '50s, last two features by Daiei starring Hiroki Matsukata and numerous subsequent televised series and features aren't available outside Japan and Hong Kong. I'd love to see any of these as boxed sets.
