Episodes 22 to 24 from the cult Japanese fantasy series plus a bonus episode from the missing 13 that have never been shown on UK television. In 'Village of the Undead' Pigsy and Sandy fall foul of a demon and his witch companions when the pilgrims venture into a deserted village. 'Two Little Blessings' sees the transformed Yu-Lee attempting to trick Tripitaka into drinking the water of fertility; however, when Pigsy and Sandy drink the water by mistake it is they who become pregnant! 'The Fires of Jealousy' has Monkey attempt to get hold of the Queen of Fire's fan so that the pilgrims can make their way past the volcano that blocks their past.

The bonus episode - 'Better the Demon You Know' - is presented with English subtitles.
