As the holiday seasons approach, I have a soft spot in my heart for Iron Chef Japan. My family established a holiday tradition almost a decade ago of binge-watching as much Iron Chef Japan as we could find through the holidays. The creativity and flair on display helped inspire some of our family’s traditional dishes and, though we have seen almost every episode more than a few times, we always appreciated learning something new every time we watched.
As 2021 draws to a close, I’m looking forward to be renewing this holiday tradition for the first time in a while! Iron Chef Fan Joe wrote in to let us know that FilmRise recently acquired the rights to dubbed episodes of Iron Chef Japan and that Pluto TV is airing ICJ on its free-to-download app. Along with the Twitch stream, this provides more access to Iron Chef Japan than we’ve seen in a while and answers some long-running questions many of you have had about the possibility of seeing it aired again.
Check out FilmRise and PlutoTV and let us know if they have what you’re looking for!
