Incidentally whoever created Game Center CX on TheTVDB, please update it so this episode is there, I need my Plex server to have all the episodes. :argh:
I used to do it, but gave up when someone else started renumbering entire seasons of episodes, multiple times. I posted in their support forums, but apparently there's no rollback functionality. It just got to be too much work, and I couldn't keep up with it.

Thanks for the translation! I haven't seen even the RAW of the live special, though, is it being worked on as well? (I mean the Mario Maker one, I know zari-gani said the Vietnam one (?) was in the works.)

I'd quite like to see the Mario Maker livestream translated, if only to understand what Arino was saying during my section :shobon:

I have a smaller project to finish first, than I plan to start on it.
Remembering I have a 9-5 job and only translate when I can find the time after work or on weekends...

I'm willing to translate what Arino said during your level ahead of that if you want, Cat Machine. How about sending that whiskey, did you decide?

Thanks for another great translation! I find Arino's ability to see the good in the stupidest of levels rather charming.

I just got done watching the Chase HQ episode which had a great ending, but I have two questions.
1) I feel like I've seen the "new" AD on many previous episodes, am I remembering correctly? If so, I'm guessing they haven't found the next AD yet?
2) What was the story behind the new AD throughout the episode? First at the arcade, and then the ending?

I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.


So I recently purchased Mario Maker, and it's really surreal just how much Arino's personality and sense of humor is reflected in his stages. I can totally picture the making of, complete with forced laughter from the cast when Arino explains some of his level gags.

1 - Oosuka started filling in for Yanai last season (while he was assigned to a different show Gascoin was filiming), worked with him a few times, and has become the new AD since Yanai left the business

2 - Arino was playing a popular fortune telling machine at the start of the segment which was designed with the help of a professional fortune teller (I guess that's a thing...) and supposedly has a 93% accuracy rate. He chose the "Chance that you'll start dating someone in the next three months" category, and used Oosuka's name. When he asked him, it turns out that Oosuka has been seeing someone (showing Arino her picture) and he said that he really likes her and hopes they become a couple.

The machine said that he should take her out to places that are exciting (Oosuka: We normally go places like museums and art galleries... Arino: You're such a huge thief!), but said the chances of them getting together weren't very high.

After that, when Arino played the three 10 yen games, he kept saying "If I don't get it in this shot, then Oosuka won't get together with her!" He won the first time he said it, missed the second, and won the third time, prompting the narrator to say he should go for it while his luck is good. Towards the end of the challenge, Kan's narration speculated that Oosuka was trying so hard at the game because he wanted to show the episode off to her.

Long explanation, but that's what was happening. Fans were saying on Twitter that it was an Oosuka episode.

CX - There's a stuffy old man in work clothes, slaving away on retro games.
DX - There's a fashionable young fellow playing the latest Nintendo games, because he's a baller.

The DX series and how they've done the Mario Maker episodes have made me realize Nintendo has remembered The Wizard-level marketing. Enjoyable, but it's largely a commercial (especially the DX episodes.)

Thanks for the recap. I love when the show is able to do themes throughout an episode like that. I was a little surprised that Chase HQ would be so entertaining.

Although the internet might sometimes act otherwise, women haven't quite yet merged into a colletive hivemind, so I think that depends entirely on the ladyfriend in question. I've certainly watched much stranger things than that episode with one.

I don't know if it's actually bullying.. well, Abe made him pay for the expensive (?) ingredients but then again, he came over and made him a lot better food than he probably normally eats, so

I guess it's down to who you relate more, Abe or Nakayama (my answer is of course Nakayama).

It was all obviously for fun, but it was such a stereo-typical abusive kohai-senpai joke it was great.

Who wouldn't have beer in their fridge? Even if you don't drink, you should keep some just in case Abe stops by.

Best I can find about it is that it's a number in either Lomita or Torrance, California, most likely an office somewhere that used to belong to the company. Those old numbers vary these days, some are flat out disconnected, some get taken over by whoever moves into the office (which I imagine would lead to a scenario like Hit or Miss described), and some get repurposed as sex talk hotlines (though, mostly the old 800 numbers). Quickest way to find out for sure is for someone to dial the number, though.

The question was what happened when you called the number when you were supposed to. Presumably it was some sort of pre-recorded ad for the game, but... well. A weird approach, to be sure.
