In the mid-00s, after the Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh anime dubs started to wane in popularity, 4Kids mostly gave up on home video releases of their shows. As such, they're not usually lost, but just available scattered around different parts of the internet at pretty terrible quality.

  • Magical Doremi and Mew Mew Power thankfully have all(?) their episodes available online, but only as 480i VHS rips.
  • Kirby: Right Back At Ya was lucky enough to have a random handful of episodes released on DVD, but it's mostly only TV recordings again
  • F-Zero GP Legend got the short end of the stick, with only a few episodes even uploaded anywhere online as 320x240 analog recordings with commercials and network-bumper credits sequences

Gosh do I wish we could get modern re-releases of a lot of these shows, even if just so they can be better preserved than this. (I would buy the hell out of a Blu-Ray release of Magical Doremi or Mew Mew Power TBH)

ojamajo doremi is in a similar position as a whole, i believe. a friend of mine was bemoaning raws are impossible to find, basically everywhere that has doremi has hard subs, which is like. sad
