Do we need to mark snack spoilers?

It was a big cheese-filled meatball! Who doesn't like cheeseburgers? I don't know what the bone was made of, but I presume something edible.

More food talk! :dance:

My sister-in-law sometimes makes turkey patties with pepper jack cheese inside. It's really awesome if it has a good meat to cheese ratio. These are probably even better.

I've played a handful of the games on the show both before and after watching it, but Kirby's Adventure and Mega Man 2 are the only ones I've ever managed to complete. :shobon:

Edit: Speaking of ringtones, Nakayama's bowing (pon~koron) sound was available in the last thread since it makes such an awesome notification or SMS sound. I reuploaded them since it seems at least the old mp3 link was down.

MP3 version: http://www.mediafire.com/?xm17jh197gh1cjo
M4R version: http://www.mediafire.com/?91bo5hh77h7km1c

I don't know why, my stupid phone cuts the sound off halfway. :argh:

I've been lucky the last couple of shows when I found a livestream, so start getting your hopes up nnnnow, especially because it starts at 6 pm there and goes to 2 AM if I'm reading that right, which is... not convenient for my fellow North Americans (1 AM PT the same day).

Does KeyHole TV get the channel it's on or does it air on some premium channel?

For what it's worth, Game Center CX is a really tough show to work on from any way you look at it (this isn't something I like to talk about because you guys don't want to read about the sausage making even if you think that you do).

My curiosity is piqued. :clint:

Does this show get Japanese subtitles like dramas do? Does Arino use a lot of Kansai slang and twenty year-old cultural references?

Crayfish are cool but I hate 'em anyway. When you line a running irrigation ditch in wetlands, you gotta deal with those things brushing up against your legs and poo poo and snipping at you like they're some kind of motherfucking underwater centipede.

My dad sells them to pet stores sometimes and I used to have to catch them in the back yard for transporting. It's awesome how much personality they seem to have. Then one dies and literally ruins the whole pond they were in so the whole thing has to be drained and cleaned. :argh:

No, not even the DVD's have subtitles.

I was surprised TV Nihon's sub work on this show look so, I guess quick? They're usually obsessive with quality control on their Kamen Rider stuff. More Arino is never bad Arino though.

Huh? Multiple groups fansub the same anime and dramas all the time.

Drama fansubs are serious business. If you start subbing something another group already called dibs on, they will set fire to your lawn. :argh:

Games that rely on Arino's cunning rather than his reflexes are always the best. :woop:

That place he visited was great.

Arino was pointing and laughing at us! :saddowns:

Speaking of the segments, I like to think I have a pretty open mind when it comes to the food Arino eats and sometimes even crave it (53 Stations, Cafes, that Ramen Noodle Machine); however, those egg wrapped noodles with a side of red beans to drink for dessert -- no thanks. When he opened the egg: :can:

Have you ever had eggs with worcestershire sauce? They're like made for each other. Apparently yakisoba sauce (the noodles are fried with that to make it brown) is a sweetened variant of that, so it probably tasted awesome. :aaa:

The bean "drink" looked like a variant of the red bean soup you get as dessert in some restaurants.

Plus video games are even more expensive in Japan and Arino was probably a struggling comedian at the time. :v:

Okay fine, then he was in a punk rock band during high school, then became a cook at a hotel, then in 1990 formed Yoiko with that other guy. He was very busy! :argh:

Maybe after the success of the USA debut and Kotaku dropping the license, they decided to let them stay up so people are aware of the show until they can manage proper overseas distribution? :3:

I think one of the reasons people also take advantage of this is due to the subtly that the SA team references itself only once at the end of the episode. Someone explained that this is a sign of a good translation team to be non-intrusive. You should release an episode with a giant loving obnoxious watermark. :v:

I've always wondered about this for fansub stuff. I don't know any details of the legalities involved, but if the lawyers ever got riled up, wouldn't the first place they go after be the people dropping "brought to you by us! Only go to this website if you want to see this show!" splashes all over the place? :v:

Watching Arino spam projectiles for an hour straight is tough. Somehow against all odd it's still kind of entertaining though.

It's great because the staff gets mad the longer he succeeds at it.

Is Arino actually aware of the royalty characters that talk to him at the intro or the whole devil king saga thing?
