Orphan proudly presents a new version of Toei Douga's 1967 movie *Shounen Jack to Mahou Tsukai* (released in English as *Jack and the Witch*). This movie looks to the Old English saga *Beowulf* for inspiration - kinda sorta. It tells the story of a young boy named Jack and his four companions - Squeaky the mouse, Pooh the bear, and an unnamed dog and fox - and their encounter with a demon named Kiki, servant to the evil witch Grendel. Kiki is supposed to kidnap Jack and his friends and turn them into demons, but they're more resourceful than they look. Comically slapstick adventures and PG-rated thrills and chills ensue before the mandatory happy ending. %20%5BToei%5D_001_2719.png) %20%5BToei%5D_001_10099.png) %20%5BToei%5D_001_56917.png) The summary doesn't convey how funny and inventive the movie is. Even the songs are comically appropriate. See [this blog entry](https://collectr.blogspot.com/2026/02/shounen-jack-to-mahou-tsukai.html) for more details. The movie has been translated from scratch. The existing [ARR release](https://nyaa.si/view/152253) features an English dub that is interesting but unrelated to the underlying Japanese. The dub track works with this release. If you want it, this [patch](https://mega.nz/file/XNQBBTyS#bHhD5vW3xkfsYbuDVS31YUsuttxjYJzSxXjfgPBE4H4) creates a dual audio release, including a signs-only subtitle track. The ARR subs are dubtitles and have not been included. The raw is from heponeko. There is no HD source at this time.
