Shonen Jack to Mahoutsukai  (Jack and the Witch)  is an wildly weird movie that was released by Toei in 1967.  All of the original artwork from this show seems to have evaporated!  The images on this page are from an extremely rare mimeographed "continuity" that has the film's original title on the cover: Fushigi na Sekai no Daibouken (Adventure In A Strange Land).  The continuity contains thumbnail sketches of every scene in the film, as well as shooting directions and the film's script.

This film is a wild fantasy that more than deserves a revival!  Ask for it by name!
