Soldier Soldier Soldier, King (Anime)

Soldier Soldier Soldier, King ( 三人の兵士、一つの王 San'nin no heishi, hitotsu no ō ), colloquially known as S3K, is an anime adaption of the original manga series. It was produced by Parakyo Films, premiering on VHS in Japan on February 18, 2001. Though never reaching mainstream Japanese audiences, S3K continues to retain a niche following. Two full seasons of the anime were produced, with the third season remaining unfinished due to the purchase and subsequent liquidation of Parakyo Films by Disney.

Story
Soldiers Huey and Luey rebel against a king after he sends them on a mission that leads to the death of another soldier, Duey.

Contents
S3K consists of 3 seasons.

The first season was released in February of 2001 and consists of 8 episodes.

The second season was released in October of 2001 and is widely considered to be the best of the series.

Finally, the third season was unfinished, and the 2-part finale never made it out of the storyboard phase.

There are no official English translations of the anime, though some dedicated fans have taken it upon themselves to create their own subs and dubs.

There is an attempt to get this show on Netflix. This show, the a remake/fan-made adaptation, is often taken down due to copyright reasons. It can be found here

Production
The company who created S3K, Parakyo Films, went bankrupt in March of 2002. However, Parakyo Films still managed to produce 9 of the planned 13 episodes in the final season, the final 4 episodes never being released. Some fans claim to have found unreleased or partial episodes from The Fateful 4, but no concrete evidence has been brought forth.

Rebranding
After acquiring the rights to S3K, Disney attempted to rebrand the series, leading to the Hydronium Scandal. Due to the backlash of the scandal, Disney shelved the series and has yet to release S3K in any form.
