Member venoms5 Posted July 15, 2008 Member Share Posted July 15, 2008 It has been announced that this will be released (along with ROARING FIRE see link below) on November 21st. I was collaborating on this project and was nearly finished timing the subs for this second series using the newly remastered uncut prints shown recently on Japanese television. Guess there's no need to finish it now. Hopefully, somebody will pick this up and release it legitimately. If this one is picked up, hopefully KAGE 3 and 4 (and KAGE 5 if you count the remaining 20 shows from series 4 that played after the first twenty were cancelled from poor ratings back then) will soon follow, not to mention the plethora of other Chiba shows that were planned as fan projects for the future. http://db.eiren.org/contents/03000001228.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member venoms5 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Member Share Posted July 15, 2008 Toei video I imagine. I'm just assuming that a US company will pick this up and hopefully ROARING FIRE as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MrGranger Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I'd imagine that BCI would pick up KAGE 2, as long as 1 sold well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member daisho2004 Posted July 29, 2008 Member Share Posted July 29, 2008 I was hoping that maybe Cliff from BCI could answer this one for me. I read that BCI will release KAGE NO GUNDAN 2 but what about (3-5) and YAGYU CONSPIRACY TV-series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that BCI will release KAGE NO GUNDAN 2 but what about (3-5) and YAGYU CONSPIRACY TV-series? Where did you read that bci is picking up Kage 2? I remember reading on another forum(cant remember which one) from Cliff that sales for Kage 1 were poor and that they would more than likely not pick it up. Yagyu conspirarcy tv series would be great as its remastered in japan right now(thanks venoms05). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member daisho2004 Posted July 29, 2008 Member Share Posted July 29, 2008 oldeschool17: Venom is the one who posted it at the top of this thread. So I hope its true. But I'd like to hear from Cliff over at BCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd like to hear from Cliff over at BCI. hmm, but it he didn't state that BCI was releasing it, just that it was being released later this year(presumably in Japan/possibly remastered?).

Member venoms5 Posted July 29, 2008 Author Member Share Posted July 29, 2008 The link is from a Japanese site. i assumed there would be no confusion. It was stated elsewhere that BCI would not be releasing KAGE 2 because of poor sales of the first series lest something has changed since then. I have been asked to carry on with the remaining episodes for these fan versions. I am doing the job for free just so the show will be out in some form or other. I have no monetary gain from this project nor any future projects at the moment as these things do not sale well period and I am just enamored that they will come out at all for the few fans who appreciate them. These are the best this show will likely ever look and are comparable to the Japanese release of KAGE 1. Until somebody picks these up for a legitimate release in the US, this is the best way to see this show for those who want to see it in the best version possible.

Member daisho2004 Posted July 29, 2008 Member Share Posted July 29, 2008 OK my mistake Venom I thought it was BCI that was gonna be doing it. Well I still would like to hear from Cliff to see what he has to say about everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member venoms5 Posted July 30, 2008 Author Member Share Posted July 30, 2008 That would be great if they would put it out then I wouldn't need to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member markmetcalf Posted August 1, 2008 Member Share Posted August 1, 2008 So, where will Kage 2 be available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member daisho2004 Posted August 1, 2008 Member Share Posted August 1, 2008 Well that's why I'm hoping to hear from Cliff from BCI so maybe he could tell us more news if they are going to be releasing the rest of the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
