Thank you all for replying. Yes its quite unfortunate that not all of it made it, but I'm some of it did. I am not quite sure, but there is a high possibility that the obscure shintoho films did not make it in whole. I think its pretty amazing that all of the other films of the line series made it in such good conditions. I hope white line is as good as the other ones. <br>

<br> Yes, Hakusen himitsu chitai (white line) was originally 72 minutes long but only 57 minutes are left. It was re-released as part of Ishii boxset but not the Beam releases.<br>
