The file database is down at the moment. It will be back and as good as new very soon. Thank you for your patience.
Everything is back up and ready for use again. Thank you again for your patience.
Iron Chef Japan will start airing on the Fine Living Network beginning May 5th. It looks like the show will be airing 5 nights a week at 11 PM ET/PT with a repeat at 3:00 AM ET/PT. The first 5 episodes are listed as follows:
- May 5 – Mango (615)
- May 6 – Red Snapper (607)
- May 7 – Broccoli (609)
- May 8 – Rice (610)
- May 9 – Guinea Fowl (611)
They only have 85 episodes listed on their website, so it looks like we are not getting any new episodes at this time; however, it is good to see the show back on the air.
We will still have weekly Episodes of the Week posts and new additions to our video database. We will try to avoid posting episodes that are airing that week on TV so you have a variety of episodes from which to choose.
Potatoes!! I’m going to go right into it and not mess around with you guys.
- Episode 341 – Lin Kunbi vs Iron Chef Michiba -> I’m not giving any spoiler on this episode so watch it.
- Episode 533 – Yoshinori Kojima vs Iron Chef Japanese Nakamura -> this episode did not air on Food Network
- Episode 724 – Michael Noble vs Iron Chef Japanase Morimoto -> Another exclusive brought to you by your friendly admin Tuthead (Don’t forget to thank him) since it’s nowhere to be found on the internet. This episode was actually requested by someone close to Michael Noble.
Episodes 341 and 724 can be found by searching our video database.
New this week to the database: 724 .
Part 2 coming next week…
We also have a little announcement this week. The fine folks over at the Kitchen Stadium message boards have graciously agreed to give us a place for people to post questions and episode reviews. If you have a problem that isn’t addressed in the FAQ, let us know. If you have an episode request, let us know. If you want to review an episode, write it up and post it over there. Maybe we’ll even put it on the main page. (And don’t worry. We will continue to respond to the comments and admin e-mail addresses.)
I’m sure most of you already know that Stage6 will cease operation on February 28th. The only reason we are here on this site is because of the great Iron Chef channel that Lostbabee started on Stage6, so it is sad news.
We will do our best to take up the slack that the loss of stage6 might cause. I promise that every episode that was available on stage6 (as well as a few that were not on there) will be here at some point. We will continue with our weekly Episodes of the Week entries as well as adding new Beyond Kitchen Stadium videos.We are well on our way to reaching our goal of being the largest Iron Chef episode and video database anywhere.
Thank you all for your continued support.

Welcome to your new home for Iron Chef videos on the web.
We will try to make this your first choice for watching full Iron Chef episodes. (Obviously, the first choice would be Food Network, but they stopped airing the show, so we’ll have to do for now.) We tried to make watching or downloading the episodes as easy as it had been at stage6.
- FAQ – some answers to the questions we get
- About Us – where we came from and why we are here
- Full Series Episode List – a complete listing of episodes, sorted by original Japanese airdate. It is also an easy way to see what episodes are available in our file database. (The list will be updated as new episodes are made available.)
- Files – the reason you probably are here. You will find a link to our searchable file database on this page.
We eventually will have over 170 full Iron Chef episodes for your viewing pleasure. We have about half of that available at the moment, but be patient. The rest of the episodes are on the way. Be sure to check out our Beyond Kitchen Stadium collection as well.
We will update the main page whenever new episodes or videos are added to the file list. Of course, let us know if you see something you like or don’t like. Also feel free to leave comments on the blog posts or the file download pages to let us know how we are doing. This is a place made for Iron Chef fans, by Iron Chef fans. Enjoy it.
