[Orphan] Cat-Eyed Boy (LD)

Happy Halloween from Orphan Fansubs! We're pleased to reach the midpoint in the saga of our favorite half-youkai, with episodes 9 to 12 of Umezz Kazuo's *Youkaiden Nekome Kozou* (*Spirit Legend Cat-Eyed Boy*, or just *Cat-Eyed Boy* for short). This minibatch is based of episodes on the laserdisc box set. It's rough - lots of grain, film burn, a static-y audio track - but that somehow suits the material. After all, this is "gekimation" - paper cut-out animation - from nearly fifty years ago. Once again, our intrepid hero faces down four more monsters as he journeys to find his missing mother: %20%5Braw-v1%5D_001_24125.png) %20%5Braw-v1-fixedaudio%5D_001_17838.png) %20%5Braw-v1%5D_001_25116.png) %20%5Braw-v1%5D_001_22751.png) Skr continues to do the heavy lifting on this show, now with help from Perevodildo, who translated the episodes from 11 onward.
