Episode 71 (2008): Chelnov
Episode 146 (2012): Karnov

Arino needs to complete the trilogy. Somebody get him a PS2 and a copy of Trio the Punch. He will most certainly lose his mind.

Can someone point out every single person on the 2nd DS game poster for the Chief Detective game poster from the Chelnov episode. I could make out some of the ones that were not mentioned. It took me a while to recognize D Fujimoto's pic after it was mentioned.

Just watched the ep. If nothing else, I'm glad Arino hated that bullshit blizzard part of stage 6 as much as I did.

Man I'm just blown away every time I see Abe do something amazing. That art of the little girl from the Northernmost Game Travelogue was so surprising. Watched the reveal of that picture like a dozen times. It also helps that the moment when Arino met her was probably my favorite part of that whole trip.

Im pretty sure theyve been on two fishing trips.

No different one. I don't know what's gonk about the one he's talking about though? I recall he caught a fish by snagging its eye but that's about it.

The binoculars fishing trip was hilarious, the owner was great.

There was actually a page-long discussion about whether that warrants a warning or not when the episode was first released here.

Chelnov was such a great episode (thank you as always, SAGCCX team :)), especially since I've never heard of the game before despite the fact it did come out on the Genesis. Quick spoilery question for those who have somehow beaten it, does the ending change depending on the difficulty? Since Arino beat it on Normal, I assume that's a good ending with Easy giving a "Beat it on a higher difficulty" cocktease ending and Hard giving the best ending.

It was a pretty gross thing to see, but after seeing all the insanely gross poo poo the internet has to offer, a fish with a hook through it's eye is almost nothing to me.

Chelnov was one of the challenges I wanted to see after reading about it, but the game itself was completely dull. It was just Arino slogging through the same thing every level with different colors. I fell asleep somewhere during the middle. At least the non-game parts of the episode were good. :(

Some say she was raised by sentient birds, and that test subjects replicating her equipment were horribly broken.

All we know is she's called
The Hunter


When I saw that, I was so hoping to see a nice clean shot of Arino in the center of the camera like that. It's perfect avatar material after all. Sadly, we get it only with the overlays in the corner.

Doesn't make it any less amazing though.

Chelnov episode was really spiffy work---first game totally unknown to me in a good while and a fair bit of nifty music to it oddly enough.

I think that's pretty much the whole ending. The Megadrive version actually added the whole positive denouement, in the arcade version all you get is Chelnov running off screen and getting killed by the helicopter.

Not sure if this has been posted before, but here's an old flash trailer parodying Namco x Capcom, Data East x Sunsoft:

They've released the whole series on DVD. Some of the extras include full episodes of the original Takeshi's Castle with subtitles. It's a blast to watch.

Okay, I honestly wasn't expecting to want another DVD set this year but drat. MXC pretty much justified the creation of that rotten Spike TV network, and episodes of the OG with subtitles is just gravy.
