| Jungle Emperor Leo (LaserDisc) | |
|
|
This isn't the release of the "Jungle Emperor Leo" movie from 1966, it is the release of a completely new movie. The story for this movie was taken from the "Go ahead Leo"("Leo the Lion") TV series, which means that here we are talking about Leo(Kimba's name in the original version), Rya(Kitty's name in the original version), Rune and Rukyo. |

| Jungle Emperor Leo: Symphonic Poem (DVD) | |
|
|
This is not a remake of the original episodes, but the story of Kimba (actually, just the first episode of the 1965 TV series) told in a totally different way - completely without words. Instead of it, you can experience a beautiful musical storytelling. The music in this movie is made by Isao Tomita (composer of the musical score/background music for the 1965 TV series) - he made it by rearranging his music from the 1965 TV series. This music was released on LP in 1966 and 1976, and on CD in 1985 and in the 90s, before using it as the music soundtrack for this movie. The pictures in this movie are new and specially made for this music and this occasion. |

| New Jungle Emperor Leo (DVD) | |
|
|
Although it was made in Japan from 1988 to 1989 as a remake of and a sequel to the original "Jungle Emperor Leo" and "Jungle Emperor Leo - Susume, Leo!" series, it didn't have bigger releases until this one. This was Osamu Tezuka's (author of Jungle Emperor - Kimba the white lion) idea of making the completely new Kimba series, which he didn't see finished and released because of his unexpected death in 1989. These 1989 Japanese TV series were on TV in Japan from 1989 to 1990 and in France in 1990. |
