Editor's Notes

Note

C-Tier Discotek Media Blu-ray. Miyazaki's first feature film, a Lupin III adventure. Discotek's release is well-regarded for the label, and they did a new English dub alongside the original. No 4K version exists yet, which is why it's still on Blu-ray. Discotek includes slipcovers as standard on all their releases.
