| Let's try not to turn this in to yet another fansub debate guys, this really has nothing to do with fansubs. Before no one can really argue this point without finding out if these truly are public domain or not, which no one actually seems to know. |

It won't 'change' the film history. Japanese historians knew of the existence of those films, but just on Paper. Since due to the earthquake of 1923, the firebombing of the WWII and the destruction by the SCAP of several films, they thought it wast lost. In fact, there are almost no animated films from the 1917-1928 period.
So this two adds the visual capability to a film they knew existed.

My mistake. It's still awesome discovery. |
