These have yet to see the light of day in the West as far as I know, but they are re-tellings and additions to the story. If anyone knows where I can get these legally or otherwise do let me know. PM

I am trying to get a grip on what I have not got... these may be two of the four/five title group you describe:

The marketers in Japan should not keep underestimating our love of this series...
There are two odd, sold out pages at Amazon, one appears to refer to one of these two titles...

I am thinking, "I am definitely missing these two newer movies, yet I see other titles being discussed that do not appear to be available to us, yet..." Aye, I might see the forest but for all the Japanese-only trees.
