I'm assuming this will utilize the new 4K restoration Toei did last year, and which has been airing on Toei Channel (in 2K and compressed to hell for TV).










Will be great to get this, although I'm not in a huge hurry to rewatch it. Just watched it in 35mm last year (together with Samurai Reincarnation)

Great news! I've previously only had the opportunity to try to watch this film via a godawful dubbed, cropped VHS-sourced print, so assuming this release isn't totally FUBAR, it'll be a must-buy for me.

Every time I think I'm about done buying discs, something like this gets announced. I am looking forward to dumping my old DVD.

"Later this year, Discotek Media is releasing a Blu-ray for Shogun’s Samurai (aka Yagyu Clan Conspiracy or Intrigue of the Yagyu Clan), a 1978 film from Kinji Fukasaku (The Green Slime, Battle Royal).

The film stars Yorozuya Kinnosuke (Lone Wolf and Cub), Sonny Chiba (Fighting Fist) and Hiroki Matsukata (Cops vs. Thugs)."
