Luffy (voice of Mayumi Tanaka) and his Straw Hat pirate crew. In 'The Adventure of Dead End' (2003) Luffy and his crew get involved in a competition with a valuable reward for those who reach the finish line first. But there is a shady character behind this competition, an ex-military commander in fact, whose plan is to lure all the pirates drawn by the competition into military waters and destroy them. The Straw Hats will need all their skill and ingenuity to escape with their lives, and maybe even the reward. In 'The Cursed Holy Sword' (2004) the crew explore an island for a legendary sword of extreme value, but before they can make off with the loot there are marines, distractions and even betrayal to contend with. In 'Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island' (2005) the Straw Hats travel to a recreational island for some relaxation. But once there, not only are the crew asked to engage in competition to win their peace and quiet, but the island begins to have a mysterious effect on the pirates, turning them against one another.<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>

When a series of murders are committed in Tokyo, a distinguishing mark connects them all: a bloody 'X' carved into the neck of each victim. In each case the murderer is found near the scene of the crime with no memory of committing it. The perpetrators are revealed to be ordinary citizens who all interacted with the same mysterious man shortly before inexplicably killing someone. Detective Kenichi Takabe (Kôji Yakusho) must now place his own sanity on the line as he attempts to put an end to the violence sweeping the city.<br/><br/><i>Typ: Blu-ray / 4K Ultra HD (Restored)</i>

Takashi Shimura plays the drunken angel of the title, a doctor working in a devastatingly poor area of immediately-post-war Tokyo. The area is overrun with competing gangsters who have lost most of their power during the American occupation. Toshiro Mifune - in the first leading role that made him a star - plays a handsome young hoodlum who one night comes to the doctor's surgery with a small bullet wound in his hand. The doctor treats the wound but also diagnoses Mifune as having tuberculosis. The gangster's arrogance prevents him from acknowledging his illness, but his position within his organisation increasingly comes under threat.<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>
