That was great to hear, I love that the song is as well remebered even after this time.

One of the messages during the 24 hour lemmings show was from AD Tsuroka. He sings the 53 Stations song there to with a guitar.

I wonder who chooses all the music for the show? That was just a small clip of "The Go! Team" when they were introducing Hamaguchi. Whoever it is has some good taste, what with the Aquabats and others played before.

Also wonderful how Arino pointed to Watanabe and Tani, saying that's was where Kan was in the picture.

Your secret identity is now blown! Amazing work as always though, and it's excellent to see them being so accepting of the international fanbase in general. I imagine at least someone on staff is going "how the hell are they even watching?", but they're letting everyone know we are anyway.

They should just start getting you do do art for every event.

edit: forgot to mention, the flag icons = brilliant.

Sorry I'm still recovering from shock; I didn't think they'd credit me so thoroughly and show so much of the picture. :3:

Amazingly enough before Kan said anything Arino recognized my work from the US trip, then Kan explained that I'm Japanese and a professional artist and have a lot of love for the show. Arino pointed out Katayama, then Emoto, amazed that I know the "Inoue's Challenge" segment. Kan said he's in there too, and Arino went "are you this one?" pointing at Watanabe, then Tanii (where he then noticed he's holding the tally of deaths during the Quest of Ki live challenge). He finally pointed at Kan then covered up the face and said "if you block this part, it looks like Abe." Kan then told him where Abe is and Arino noticed Toujima's blocking the sun. That's about all I can remember; I'll have to watch it again and sub it. ETA: Oh yeah, he also noticed that I put my name in Japanese on the whiteboard, under the Hokkaido Serial Murders chick. The writing next to it says "Might be the killer! Just a hunch" (I traced it directly from that episode).

Then they brought out the deranged fax I drew at 3 in the morning. Arino said the slime is creepy.

Then they both told me thank you :3: Kan was the one who approached me asking me to draw a birthday picture for Arino. The whole pic was completely up to me as long as I put "Happy Birthday" and his age in there somewhere so naturally I felt like I had to draw the entire televised staff so that no one feels left out.

I'll post a high-res version of the poster after the challenge is over. But I will post this now:



(I wrote in all katakana 'cause that's standard gaijin speak. Ray was subbed in all-katakana too in the Strider episode recap of the USA trip...)

I was wondering about the katakana. It all makes perfect sense now. You've done so much for the international fans of this show; it's good to see you getting some recognition for your hard work.

And for that matter, the entirety of the SAGCCX crew, you've all made this possible. Zari-gani's stuff wouldn't have made it on the show without the interest generated by all of your hard work. Thank you all over again!!

And congrats on the featured artwork, zari-gani. :D

God, that slime is really creepy. It kind of reminds me of some of the stuff you see on the whiteboard behind Arino in some of the episodes, like this thing:



Except yours feels a bit more like something you might see in the "Arino's Challenge" openers where they paste his face on something.

Congratulations on getting your poster on the show, again! It's a really fantastic piece of work.

Don't tell me they're actually going to try for the bonus. You know how that will probably end.

That put a huge dopey grin on my face. Astounding, sterling work as ever, zari-gani, and further evidence (as if it was needed) that GCCX has developed a uniquely close relationship with it's overseas, 'unofficial' fanbase.

I'm kinda sad that I didn't tune into the stream sooner, I would have loved to see Arino's reaction. Ah well, guess I'll tune in now and watch him be a cool guy.

It's one of the Directors on the show who rarly appears on the show. He appears in the 2012 New Year's Special.

Also, who is on the far right of the balcony?

Yeah it's Director Fujimoto. He hates appearing on camera. And Suda is on the far right, running to catch the train.

Kan said that despite all his insisting that there won't be an extension, they're gonna try for an extension because it would be sad to let the challenge end here.
