Hayao Miyazaki’s Sherlock Hound anime episodes getting remaster and theatrical rerelease

This then prompted a pair of theatrical releases compiling the Sherlock Hound episodes Miyazaki had directed, and those episodes are now being remastered and rereleased in theaters to celebrate the series’ 40th anniversary.

Miyazaki directed about a half-dozen Sherlock Hound episodes in 1982 before legal challenges from the Conan Doyle estate delayed the production and pushed the release of the planned anime TV series back to 1984.

But what really makes Sherlock Hound stand out in the annals of anime history is the staff that worked on it, whose figurative fingerprints are all over certain sequences.
