Like I said, your best bet is with a proxy buyer service. There's a bunch of different ones -- the one I used closed down, but I found another forum talking about them. Yeah, it's complicated and not at all cheap, but it's the tradeoff for the convenience, I guess. That or start asking around for a kind soul living in Japan to do it for you.

Is the special episode of Pilotwings any different from the that is up in the 12th season? If I remember correctly he completed the game but not on hard mode?

There's three Pilotwings challenges. The episode from season twelve, the special which was Arino's 40th Birthday live challenge and we just translated segments from it instead of him crashing the small plane for eight hours straight. The third was a stage show like Mighty Bomb Jack and it has not been translated yet.

What's the story of Arino's uniform anyway? It seems to be a generic worker getup that a lot of men in Japan wear, but I can't really tell what type of job they have in common. I remember seeing the PM wearing one in a press conference around the tsunami, so I suspected that it was a bit of an affectation to show he was "getting on with the job" or something. It seems like maybe it's for engineers but the shirt and tie seem a bit formal for that.

It's just a generic work type suit. Some of the guys (Kacho included) in my town office wear them all the time. Sometimes he helps do stuff like climb ladders and carry stuff but yeah.

I want one.

I had to crop out his name because otherwise it was eeeever so slightly over the height limit, and the 'pon koron' overlapped another character so I took that out too.

I don't know Japanese, but judging from how small he is and the hair, I'm guessing that's AD Yamada, the AD who helped Arino in Takeshi's Challenge and was never mentioned again.

Got my copy of the DVDs today. I was planning to rip the episodes from the DVDs and splice in the non-challenge segments where applicable, but I failed to account for the editing of the episodes (from their original DVD releases, I know) making it impossible to do that and have it resemble an original episode. :(

I upload the raws on YT because people on the SA Forums have asked for a place to watch them. Are there any raws from season 1, 13, 14, or 15 that you would like uploaded on my channel. I would love to put missing episodes up on YT, but YT and mt Internet connection are being finicky when doing uploads. I have all the raws from seasons 1-15. I have all of the raws from season 16 except for Yoshi's Island Part 2 on my channel already. I also have some of the raws from VC specials and the live challenges. Ask and I will see if I have the video. When I mention season 1 raws, I mean the full raw which includes the interviews and the challenge. The current subs for most of season 1 are challenges only subbed.

Also, Captain Tsubasa raw episode is on my YT channel.

Translation:

Yoiko Arino's mysterious surge of foreign followers, 35% American

Shinya Arino (age 40) of the comedy duo Yoiko revealed on his Twitter he's recently received many foreign followers.

On the 26th, Arino tweeted "What the?? Lots of foreigners are talking to me!" Due to the sudden increase in foreign followers, he looked up their countries using a tool linked to him by another user. The result was "1. Japan 48.30%, 2. America 34.50%, 3. Canada 3.40%, 4. Macau 3.40%, Malaysia 3.40%, Russia 3.40%, England 3.40%." Regarding the missing 0.2% he remarked "Aliens??" Arino reacted to this result with "Less than half are Japanese... even though I only write in Japanese. I'm grateful."

Responding to a foreigner pining for English tweets from Arino, he wrote "Thank you. But difficult!" in katakana. However, a kind follower translated the katakana to English, to which he graciously replied "When I responded to a foreign tweet in katakana, someone translated it to English! Traveling abroad would be more fun if there were more kind people like this." Japanese users replied "We can help!"

Arino is enjoying his exchange with foreign followers, but he still doesn't know why there's suddenly so many foreigners tweeting at him.

Worst title screen ever.

I'm not joking when I say that might be the biggest challenge that we have left. On the translation side you've got sports and a licensed property. On the editing/timing side, the game needs the interface completely replaced so that the challenge can be understood. And for some cruel reason they made it a two parter.
