Mewtwo Strikes Back has two cuts: the theatrical cut and the Kanzenban (complete version). The theatrical cut is exactly what it says on the tin–the version that was screened for its initial theatrical run in Japan. The Kanzenban is a later special edition with an added prologue known as The Birth of Mewtwo, and with number of re-animated cuts, a bunch of which involve the addition of CGI. See here for more information about the differences between these cuts.
The theatrical cut was only ever released on VHS and LaserDisc. Every subsequent release has used the Kanzenban.
This torrent is for the theatrical cut. You can find the Kanzenban here.
The video in this release is a Domesday LaserDisc capture with downscaled Blu-ray footage spliced in all unaltered scenes, with the color graded to match the LaserDisc.
The subs are an original translation by our team. The script received a fresh QC and TLC pass for this version.
Note to avoid confusion: The previous version of the theatrical cut we released was a lower quality LaserDisc cap, so it can’t be patched into this version. This v2 of the theatrical cut is not to be confused with the v2 of the Kanzenban that was made obsolete with the newest version of that release.

Happy new year, guys.
I’m very happy that you guys did my request, of splicing the Blu-Ray footage to theatrical cut, wherever possible, looks much better, thanks…
BTW it seems Mewtwo SAGA was released on Bluray/bonuis DVD of Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution remake movie, do you know if it’s a new HD remaster or just the same old DVD/KIds station SD master?

It wasn’t released on Blu-ray, and it wasn’t with M22. It was part of a DVD-only combo pack when M16 came out.

“It was part of a DVD-only combo pack when M16 came out” <- this combo pack isn’t anything special either, just adding to the conversation. same master as what’s been previously been released

Is this just the movie again or does it have the Pikachu short the trailer and the next movie preview? ALL of that is on the lasersdisc dunno why you would leave it out but ya did last time. Also does this have the 5.1 audio since DD can supposedly do that now or still just Dolby stereo.
Edit: sorry if that sounded rude. I’m just excited. Love you <3

Great job, guys!

@PeePeePooPoo69 just the film. The LaserDisc’s trailers all have better DVD sources and the Pikachu short is no different to the Australian Blu-Ray iirc. The only thing they omitted of any interest was the exclusive interview.
