OP pic is a lost Studio Shaft anime OVA about magical girls called Prism Nana, only one episode has been discovered. This anime was announced after Madoka aired and it's supposedly still ongoing (seven episodes by different directors were planned, but some think only 3 were actually finished)

I'm sorry if this is too morbid but I've been curious about the blackbox audio for Germanwings Flight 9525. Apparently the real one was played on TV in 2015 but it's completely lost now.

I'm curious to find out who is the "celebrity number 6". For those who don't know, it is a mystery celebrity on a fabric print. Other ones are easily recognizable like Jessica Alba and Adriana Lima but people can't seem to find this one.

Samefag, I know it is not related to media but saw it in some lost media compilations. It's just a damn fabric but very mysterious at this point.

Also, I wanna find out the singer of "the most mysterious song on the internet." I love that song but it's unlikely people will find it eventually.

Years ago there was a track then known as "Mixtape" by the singer Sam Sparro floating around online and I've always really loved it. It's 15 minutes long and consists of some of his songs mixed with him covering/interpolating various pop songs, and includes a track that repeats the words "songs not bombs" a bunch of times. A few years later he put out a mixtape called "Songs Not Bombs" and said he'd made it because (he claimed) he'd read he'd recorded a track with that name, but hadn't - basically he denied all knowledge of the earlier mixtape despite it being unmistakably his voice and including his own original tracks. Luckily I still have the MP3 as the original is now impossible to find online, any search for his name + mixtape/songs not bombs brings up the later mixtape. Sage for blogpost but I've always wondered why he disowned it, maybe because of copyright issues with the covers and samples within it?

There's an anon in the help me find thread asking about a dress up game that she played between 2008-2012 that featured a skinny girl in a sewer and you dressed her up in bloody animal furs. I think that it may have been lost to time via the whole RIP flash thing but I thought I'd let anons itt know because it really captured my attention! If you want to, please help with the search!

I don't consider crime evidence unavailable to the public as lost media, we know they exist and where they are but they are kept under locks for a reason, same with accident footage like Steve Irwin's death or the tape of the people eaten by a grizzly.

Not exactly crime, but so many people are obsessed with the recording of Christine Chubbuck's suicide. Some time ago, what supposedly is an audio recording surfaced, but IDK how true that is. I don't really want to hear it.

People were debating it, according to some it was too different. Loved the biopic, Christine would be a farmer if she was born much later
Now I'm triggered by the uncertainty and would like to compare those recordings, but don't want to be haunted by her voice.

Ah, I understand. I hope it's not the actual recording, I can only imagine how terrible it would be for her family if it was the real deal. As an aside, you have convinced me to finally watch that biopic! It looked pretty good but I couldn't find it anywhere a few years ago when it first came out. Thanks, anon!

I bought all 8 of the VHS tapes for the first Nadia english dub at a used book store, and a few years after getting rid of them I found out that they were considered lost media. I had replaced them with the DVD set because it was the whole series but I kinda liked the VHS acting in comparison.

Checking google now it looks like someone uploaded the tape audio and tried adding it over the raw episodes:

There's a lot of older YouTube videos that seem lost to time to me, like I'll remember a snippet of a vid and try to search for it but even just searching simple terms of what I want to find there's thousands of newer videos I have to slog through that might not be related because of tags. Right now I'm trying to find this old animation with a unicorn but if I just type unicorn animation in I get flooded with HUNDREDS of low quality bizarre kids videos.
And the worst part is I can't seem to filter them by year (at least on mobile) I don't know if I'll ever find it

Some of the test footage of Chris Farley as Shrek was finally leaked/found. For those out of the know, Chris Farley was originally cast to play Shrek and had recorded something like 80% of the dialogue for the movie before he overdosed. Dreamworks had to do a complete overhaul to the movie including rewriting the script and changing the tone of the movie. They supposedly still have all the original recordings in archive but have not released it. Recently some test footage with dialogue was found on some demo reels and there is a 2 min storyboard floating around as well

I've been looking for a song I heard on youtube around 2009 for ages now. It's techno-ish, type of song you'd hear a nightcore version of. Starts with a young girl saying something about stars, the night, or cars. Every couple of years I get into a searching frenzy, and I never manage to find it kek
I heard the song around the time I listened to basshunter, if that helps.

For years I've been looking for the first anime I saw on tv as a child, Tonde Burin/Super Pig. This was back in the early-mid 2000's. It's about a magical girl who transforms into a pig. I'm specifically looking for the local dub but I'd settle for the English dub which is also largely lost. A couple of years ago there was someone on youtube who had a few episodes of the dub I was looking for and claimed to have everything else "on the attic" but said they didn't have time to upload the rest. I don't know if the original Japanese episodes are also lost now that I think about it.

Anyway it's fascinating how many shows from my childhood can no longer be found on the internet.

I wonder how MUBI got it to stream it, there must be a digital copy somewhere. Apparently the director is very protective of it and only wanted it to be seen in the original celluloid (it converted to digital halfway through filming, which adds to the confusing), and often appeared at screenings himself. Most of the reviews I saw of the movie saw it at a film festival or special screening, I don't think it ever got an official theatrical release. A true lost movie…
