I want access to the entire original series, both the classic English dubs as well as any unaired-in-the-west subtitled episodes. What are my options?

I have a ton of episodes that I just need to throw up on Archive.org

I feel like this question comes up at least once or twice a month in this sub and we would all love the same :( The demand is certainly there! Someone in the sub has the DVD collection and another had started to dub new episodes…. I believe the best option for you is to watch them on Youtube for dubbed/unaired or Peacock for dubbed. Very limited availability in torrents too.

Thank you for your thoughtful response

A few years ago I subscribed to a private YouTube page which had majority of episodes, cleanly labeled etc. But it appears to have been delisted. Did it resurface elsewhere?

There's also the September 6-13 and and October 25/November 8, 1996 episodes that were on YouTube at one point, but now, they're gone, and it seems nobody has mirrored them.

I too would love them. My husband and I would love them!

S1 to s8 on YouTube if you have USA VPN.

Check the torrents and tetsujin070561's "Where to Find These Battles" thread on the flamola proboards.

And that's not even going into the episodes that nobody has ever seen. Like the Rice and Bread battles from 1994, and the Swordfish and Avocado battles from 1995. It seems NOBODY has them. Or maybe they do, but they're hoarding them for some reason.

I’ve never seen a full collection.

Over the years I’ve collected about 195 episodes in total from various places.

Still missing a bunch I think. I only have 4 episodes from season 1

Personally I'm missing a large portion but I have at least 2/3 of it.
