From Mario's long history, there exists one anime featuring Nintendo's character that you CAN'T watch. The video isn't lost it's actually safely stored in libraries across Japan. But these libraries only lend the Mario anime to people from a specific group. And if you're not in the group, then you can't watch this Mario anime!
