- Sometimes Jonii wants to play a game but then they find that it isn't practical. Maybe, like Tokimeki Memorial, it's stuck in Japan. Maybe, like SegaSonic Popcorn Shop, it's an arcade machine that's difficult to accurately emulate. Or maybe, like Super Mario 128, it never came out. Join them as they explore a bunch of these games; you might even learn about one yourself!

@Kardino 's video: • Uncovering the Lost & ... 
Игры
15:05 wasn't expecting to see my own vid in this woa-
carnival edition cant be played in its original form bc it required connecting to sega's servers, there was an installer found for 15th carnival edition but it seems to just be checking for servers when its played, the most you can do it get into the first battle in the tutorial course before getting kicked out
great vid btw lol 🐀👌
Very nice
the lost media landfill having weezer, green day, and dr. mario. what a great tour lineup that would be
Sonic Hopping 1 & 2 were actually combined into an American Release for J2ME Phones called "Sonic Hopping"
The Rom is online and playable
I will not REST until playing WEEZER on a WII U is recognized AS A HUMAN RIGHT
Another possible category for these types of games would be digital-only games that have been discontinued. For example: Super Mario 35, a game that was available to purchase digitally for about a year before Nintendo decided to eviscerate it off the face of the Earth.
Super Mario 35 was free to play and came out with the knowledge that there was an end date (not that I agree with that, mind you)
A better example of what you're talking about is Overwatch, which turned into Overwatch 2 overnight when that came out, which means your disc of Overwatch is basically a pizza cutter now
@@fortecyveria769 Yeah but still, it is a game, it was available people played it for a year and now I can't play it
There's a fan project being worked on called GHTV Reloaded that aims to bring back the GHTV servers (without the microtransactions of course). The public beta testing period has ended but the full release should be happening fairly soon. Works on emulated ps3 and modded Wii U.
I assure you, playing the demo of SEGA Monkey Ball on a 2003 feature phone is an experience unlike any other
Something magical, I'm sure. Unrivaled, even.
Shameless plug but I have worked on three fan translations patches so far for the Puyo Puyo franchise! (mostly as a graphic editor)
and two more are in the works lol.
It's always such an interesting experience getting to learn the ins and outs of the games and how much the developers fucked up things or made questionable decisions that you wouldn't normally realize by just casually playing the games.
Anyway I love fan translation projects and it always makes me happy when people work on them.
Fan translators do gods work, you get to have a shameless plug
What are those "questionable decisions"? If they are narrative related we don't necessarily get to decide whether or not they're worth keeping. Are you by chance a funimation fan, and you like butchering and abridging dialogue to your personal liking? Just to be sure.
@@thatitalianlameguy2235
It seems like he’s more talking in a technical sense. Probably about editing visual graphics, or words explaining mechanics in a tutorial.
I doubt there’s a lot of controversy in how Puyo Puyo story is translated outside of needing to reorganize wording and descriptions. It’s a pretty straightforward game series.
Oh hey, Armando! Always nice seeing a fellow Precise Museum member randomly in the comments, ehehe!
@@thatitalianlameguy2235 You have no idea how translation OR game development works, I can tell from literally every aspect of what you've just said... You have a right to state your opinions of course, but when they are as ill-informed as these, you would be better off not saying anything, for the sake of appearing somewhat respectable.
8:46 Be careful what you ask for
I’ve already liked, commented, and subscribed.
So only one thing to do now.
Oh God oh fuck
There is a bonus about the EU version of battle and chase that makes it a bit better:
You see in the japanese version duo wasn't in the game unless you won a specific memory card from a magazine promotion which you could only enter by 100% the story mode of battle and chase (beating the dark racers, getting all the spare parts AND the super secret parts hidden in the courses).
The EU version just unlocks him immediately as soon as you get your last car part!
the commitment in these irl gags is truly something
Anime Jonii talking about SegaSonic Popcorn Shop was something I never knew I needed in my life, still wonder what that chili popcorn tastes like...
This is a really interesting topic. Recently I have been working on a concept for a dragon ball games retrospective and though I intend to discuss every game I can to the best of my ability I know I won't be able to acquire everything especially arcade titles and super obscure mobile games. It's insane to me that games people spent years playing like mmos and mobile games can just disappear forever if improperly preserved. It makes me all the grateful for emulations, unofficial servers, and fan translations. Now if we could just find one of the vectorman contest winner carts.
6:20 Yo I hate to be the fact checking nerd, but Keiji Inafune was not the series creator of Mega Man. He was later portrayed as the "father of Mega Man" in marketing, but the series concept was not created by Inafune, nor was the first game directed by him, though he was the primary artist from the start.
great video btw
Jonii dropping a banger outta nowhere?
Let's, and I cannot stress this enough, fuckin' GOOOOOOOO.
13:48 DUDE! That’s the biking music from SpongeBob: Lights, Camera, Pants!!!
Woah D.N. Angel!! I never thought I'd see it in 2022!
As for games I can't play, definitely Um Jammer Lammy NOW arcade cabinet!
10:47 "You thought your hardest challenge was going to be picking between salt and butter and now EVERYTHING'S EXPLODING"
This made me laugh way harder than it should've.
Can... can you trade the GBC Tokimeki Memorial girls between versions?
Like the new avatar's many different expressions! Anyway a game I really hope will get a translation someday is a Dreamcast game, Segagaga. It's a very meta game about Sega not doing well financially... Oh it's also an RPG, so that sounds fun!
As for the game that you can sorta play, but isn't translated, I once found a DS game based on the Sgt. Frog anime. It's developed by Bandai Namco, which is very obvious, because the game is straight up a Klonoa game with a few more characters. There's also a little minigame that's an homage to a classic Namco arcade game - Mappy. Sadly the game only came out in Japan, so it's pretty obscure nowadays. But I think it's one of the best 2D platformers I've played on the DS. I highly recommend it.
Great picks! Segagaga is eternally interesting to me. I know about the Sgt. Frog PS2 games but not so much the DS one; pretty wild that it's mostly derived from Klonoa.
@@joniivee It's mainly the green frog dude that plays exactly like Klonoa, and there are also many enemies that are either straight up from Klonoa, or are very similarly designed. There are as well more characters that play pretty differently, like if Klonoa could shoot a gun, and throw grenades.
That's honestly pretty awesome! I loved the Sgt. Frog anime back in the day so I should give that a try.
@@joniivee oh I think you definitely should, it's a very well put together game. Sadly I didn't have the appeal of watching the anime... Cause um yeah I didn't. But since you did, that might bring some nostalgic memories to you.
I actually got to play one of the last games of DDI ever before they dropped the piano on it. It used a modified version of StepMania with difficulties such as hippy, burner, raver, etc etc.
A pet peeve of mine is the download exclusive elements of pokemon games, where they distributed in game items only at the pokemon day or via wifi. At least there, fans went to the effort to reenable those. Even though I'm not physically able to attend the pokemon day of 2008
Shuffle! and Rumbling Hearts in one video???? Go OFF Jonii. I one day hope to play Pop'n Music and Time Travelers, but I'm not ready to beat the game that is learning Japanese
This is a little different since it's an indie game and not a big budget Nintendo game, but there's a Japanese Horror RPG called Utahonotatari (plus its sequel) that has never gotten an official or unofficial translation, but has gained a decent cult following over the years. The sequel notably has an eerie image of a corpse as a glitch easter egg, which is the main reason people know about and want to play these games. Due to its mostly underground following, and the fact it was made in Wolf RPG Editor (which doesn't have many accessible methods of translating games made in it), no one has translated either of the games.
17:37 Billy Hatcher: Hyper Shoot is still playable on the GBA, but only if you are one of the 4 people who own a GBA-GCN link cable, a Gamecube and a copy of Billy Hatcher. I am overjoyed that the world will never be without Billy Hatcher: Hyper Shoot.
The fact that the clip with Dragalia Lost is about to become more fitting within this video at the end of this month really saddens me…
I was literally just thinking "when are we gonna get a new jonii upload?" like an hour ago wtf
11:03 goofy ahh popcorn fail
This was a really good video hoping for a part 2
This was a really good comment hoping for a part 2
Yes, the banana joystick is what makes Monkeyball Arcade what it is. I had the pleasure of playing it once at a Gameworks and the fact that you're controlling the game with the universal sign for "slippery" really adds a layer to the slippery nature of monkeyball. A gamecube analog stick is no replacement.
I love anything megaman and small stuff surrounding it, monkey ball also so this was great another great video! It’s always sad when games are gone completely
So hyped to see another vid from you! Every time a video comes up from you I end up watching nearly all your vids again. I can't wait for the next one!
I am haunted by the fact that I will never be able to properly enjoy Segagaga.
i love ur new avatar its got such a nice feel to it and u look like a pokemon sprite!!!!!!! also thx for not snitchin’ on my mother 3 piracy shes always looking out
An interesting thing to explore and it is certainly a wonderful feeling when you can finally experience a game that you've known of but never got to play. It was a true blessing to finally be able to Panel De Pon thanks to it's release on the Switch, which I had never been able to before, despite being a big fan of Lip and her Puzzle League series.
0:58 - Wait; is that a School Rumble game? If not, them I'm sure the art is by the same mangaka as the characters look very familiar to those in School Rumble.
3:12 - An interesting thing to consider (the programming/coding) with fan-translations outside of just translating the language and conveying actions/customs that might not make sense. I don't see such an element get brought up too often.
8:15 - Are we talking purely story wise or gameplay wise? It's an interesting debate, as I could have always tracked down Tetris Attack which shared it's gameplay with Panel De Pon and yet it was the styling and characters that I wanted to experience with Panel De Pon. That's a much larger regional differences, whereas smaller regional differences such as Ristar's different endings don't make a huge difference outside of preference (oddly enough, the western version with Ristar having a Dad I feel works better).
9:12 - The lack of trackball availability is the same reason that we have never had a home port of SegaSonic the Hedgehog arcade game. I feel, even though it wouldn't be exact, it would be nice to have a version available on modern systems to at least experience it in some form rather than not at all. In the case of arcade games, a lot of the intended experience is already lost when converting it from the social scene of an arcade to the more isolated solo/small-group experience of the home.
19:49 - Wait; there is a bonus game I can play by connecting my GBA to Billy Hatcher!? Does it require any extra hardware? If not, I'll have to try that out. Just need to find the GBA to Gamecube adapter.
23:02 - In bring up cancelled games and Nintendo, my thoughts immediately went to the Gamecube Kirby game. We got elements of it in Kirby's Adventure Wii, but I still wonder about the original Gamecube title. Then again, one could ponder about how games and cancelled features of them that would have changed how the game would have been significantly. My brother would be quick to mention the original plans for Spore and I've long thought about the steady ageing mechanic that was at one point considered for Wind Waker.
Another thing to consider on the topic of games you can't play is the constant updating nature of games these days. MMO's in particular get updates overtime that not only adds new content but also changes many key elements. I've noticed a similar thing happen with fighting games through it's many balance and character updates, resulting in older versions being either lost or incredibly hard to access.
Thanks for the detailed comment! I don't have answers/replies to everything but I am happy to say
1) gameplay and story are both aspects of the experience that I think regional differences can sort of muddy. Small things like, as you said, the difficult of translating some customs or cultural details from one language to another, or other stuff like some NES games being made harder in the US or a games backstory being changed qualify in my mind in some way. I think with gameplay differences, you can still *play* the game on some level though so long as the text isn't a huge component
2) that is indeed a School Rumble game! I don't know the name offhand but it's on the PSP. You can play as Tenma or Harima and I believe I'm playing as Tenma in that footage
thankfully there are alot of awesome people who work on preserving games and fantranslations :)
there was this monogatari game that i never thought that i'd be able to play but sure enough it got translated and it's uhh.. weeeird :)
[The following information is taken from Hudson Soft's website:
"The Tengai Makyo series was conceived and produced by Ouji Hiroi. The first game in the series, Tengai Makyo Ziria, was released in 1989...as the world's first major RPG on CD-ROM. At a time when most thought CD-ROMs were a poor medium for games, Tengai Makyo Ziria integrated features that couldn't be put on other media, from large maps to animation, real-voice narration, and CD-quality music. With a score from Ryuichi Sakamoto and an all-star cast of narrators, this epoch-making title revolutionized the role-playing game. Set in the fictional Japanese world of Zipangu, the game brought adventure, romance, comedy, and drama together in a single, sprawling storyline. In addition to the main games, the series also featured fighting action games featuring characters from the RPG. The main RPG series was originally conceived in three parts...The final installment of the original series, Tengai Makyo III: Namida...was stopped due to development costs and hardware limitations..."]
This is the big one for me.
Everything Lunar and FF7 got credit for, they did first. And almost nobody in the English speaking world has even heard of it, beyond a single well regarded Neo Geo fighting game.
I love Super Adventure Rockman's story honestly, mainly since it makes Mega Man Classic less of the "dumb one for babies" in the grand scheme of Mega Man lore, which that tonal difference made me really nervous when I was fully into being in the fandom since the somewhat-darker Mega Man X and Zero are BY FAR the most popular sagas/series within the fandom(at least on the side of it that's on Twitter).
I love Puyo Pop for the Gameboy Advance and Arle Nadja is really cute 😍❤️
Way to add Shnjis rant at the end 23:34
super entertaining video as always, loved the editing and narration. this kind of retro gaming mystery stuff is right up my alley
sonic xtreme is one game i can't play that has always gotten to me as i absolutely adore the sega saturn era as well as the classic sonic era. and even though we can at least see some footage of what the final game might have looked like, it still hurts watching it and knowing i can't play it myself or see how the rest of the game would've panned out. there is a fanmade recreation of the game that's actually playable on real hardware and i've been meaning to get around to that one but it'll never be the same as the real thing ;_;7
still cool to experience something similar to what i've been dreaming of since i was a kid, though
I love how the last leg of this video basically turns into a DYKG episode about Mario 128
The most painful thing about the kiminozo translation is that its sitting almost 100% complete on Evan's hard drive. How anchor fumbled the bag in negotiations that badly is still a mystery
Jonii, If you ever fancy yourself a trip to Chicago, Ill set you up at my place and Ill take you to galloping ghost, 15 minutes from my place, and you can play OG Monkey Ball with the Banana joystick for as long as you want. As well as SegaSonic the hedgehog trackball arcade game. Hit me up if you want to make that happen. We can play some Panel de Pon during downtime or some shit too. IDK
You asked if they were just lazy by removing those characters from the MegaMan racing game
Well, I remember back in the PS1 days that the Japanese Rival Schools game had a mode where you could make your own fighter with a custom set of moves
That was removed on the Eng version for a bunch of secret premade characters
So yeah, they were lazy probably
literally every pacman game with -mrs. pacman- in it
Bandai's Datacarddass arcade games have never been preserved from what I know, cards are required to play the games and they're removed from arcades after the company stops supporting them. I've never seen anyone talking about them, other companies also made similar arcade machines such as Takara Tomy and Sega, I really wish something could be done to preserve these games.
9:17 Why, yes, I do own a trackball! They're not even too expensive, and are much more comfortable than a mouse. Noteworthy makers: Logitech, Kensington, and Elecom.
average super famicom tokimeki memorial fan vs average action button enjoyer
Ever heard of Project Dream? Its a canceled rareware game that Banjo Kazooie is a spin off of.
after reading the entire muv luv franchise i wanna read kiminozo so bad, gotta learn japanese i guess
As an Puyo Puyan myself (yeah, im a Puyo Puyo fan), and finding out that most are Japanese exclusive (by the way, I will not learn Japanese just to play that) makes me mad, couldn't they just release them in America, because there is also people that like those games like me. Also, another Japanese exclusive is nintendo puzzle collection, by the way, good video.
Just emulate using the English patches from Puyo nexus and precise museum most Puyo Puyo games have a fan translation now(the only big one I can think of that isn’t translated is Puyo Puyo fever 2 and that has a unfinished patch)
@@amazingnobodylee thanks, now i can play these without learning Japanese, huge thanks
@@yayo_youtube your welcome, if your planning to play Puyo Puyo 7 I’d recommend not playing the ds patch, it has inaccurate translations though a person named saeratta or something like that made a new English patch for wii about a year ago
@@yayo_youtube also if you need any download links I can probably help
@@amazingnobodylee yes please
I always wanted to play Mobile Suit Gundam: Senjo no Kizuna, a POD arcade game that replicates a full Mobile Suit cockpit from Universal Century.
Yes there's a PSP port, but without the giant cockpit arcade machine, it just isn't the same.
There's the Super Mario World arcade spinoffs: Super Mario Attack, Mario Undoku, Mario Roulette and even a Super Mario World popcorn popper. Also a rideable cape-mario.
10:00 11:14 21:54
Burn baby Burn
I'm not usually into VN games myself, Tokimeki has really nice art/animation though.
A Game I can't play that I _really_ want to is Mystery Dungeon Shiren GB2
mentions a Stratocaster, pictures a Jaguar
here’s an interesting one- i love sonic, but can’t play any of the classic games or even classic styled fan games. the fast scrolling gives me intense headaches!
I would simply play Tokimeki Memorial ~ Forever With You
Yo new avatar? Lookin swag, lookin fresh
Time to learn Japanese! it's never too late, it takes dedication though.
Great topic, great vid! 😎
Recently learned that The Legend of Heroes 2 is a really rad game but no version of it is in English :(
And then there's Jim Henson's Muppet Adventure: Chaos At the Carnival on MS-DOS because it crashes a lot even on real period-accurate MS-DOS computers. Or Hareraiser because THERE IS NO GAMEPLAY.
Common Jonii banger
21:15 there are to many Mario 1 2 3 THERE TO MANY MARIOS AHHHHHHH
Generally long lost arcade games are like this
These days we have better preservation but there will be a time where you cant play sabin sound star or beatcraft cyclon anymore, much like how its damn near impossible to play crackin dj on real hardware
Jonii has been promoted tiers above fake gamer
There's a beta version of the original NBA Jam where you can actually play as Michael Jordan. Only 4 copies of the PCB exist, and 3 of them belong to Gary Payton.
9:17 Yes, Yes I Do. But I'm To Lazy To Set Up For Emulation.
One of the annoying things is when they release a game in English but only in certain regions, especially for older consoles, where you then have to pay to import the game _and_ pay to mod the console so that you can _play_ the import.
Another annoying example is when games get translated but have content cut, or the translation just sucks because it's essentially a rewrite (e.g. Fire Emblem Fates).
your videos are so underrated >_< aaaaa
When I clicked on this video I genuinely almost clicked off because all I saw was anime profile pic and my mind went “terminate”.
But then I remembered it was the epic Ms Pac-Man video essay writer who’s never covered any other games such as poyo poyo.
Great vid homie.
when i was younger i user to hate pikmin because i wished it was mario 128
Surprised you didnt bring up any dead mmos/online games that aren't popular enough to have private servers.
Honestly there's enough of those where they could be their own video
I'm not sure how interested ppl will be, because it's a mobile game but I'm gonna suggest looking into Afterl!fe: The sacred kaleidoscope. It was a semi visual novel/card raising game, with suprisingly well written characters and interesting world building that got shut down barely half a year after it was released in English. You play as a girl who's the manger of 20 grim reapers, and who has the ability to sense angry spirits that you need to guide to the...er...afterlife. I'm definitely not still bitter about it's closure...not at all...
When the video started, I thought you voicing over the dark haired chick lol.
As it turns out... *_QUITE A LOT OF PUYO PUYO GAMES ARE JAPANESE EXCLUSIVE._* Puyo Puyo Sun... Puyo Puyo~n... Puyo Puyo Fever 2... 15th Anniversary... Puyo Puyo 7... 20th Anniversary... Quest (a mobile game)... And that's just only a few of them!
Is the shadow shoot game actually lost? I swear i remember downloading that game off of a website
Wait you his isn’t ms pac man
Babe wake up, new Jonii video!
alot of nihon falcom games still cannot be played...
Jonii... Give us Mother 3!
While GH live servers are still down, there's recently been a revival thanks to third party fan servers. Cuts all the microtransactions out too.
oh shit I found you super recently via NitroRad and now here's a new video fuck yea
Rayman 4 was a project in development by Phoenix studios and ubisoft in I believe 2005. The game would’ve been a 3d platformer on the ps2, going back to rayman’s roots with locations and characters from the first game. However this game was cancelled when ubisoft heard about the then upcoming wii and it’s motion controls. Pheonix was then dropped from the project and a new vision was created. This new game would still be a 3d platformer but this time would use motion controls heavily and have minigames thrown about here and there. And it would feature a new set of characters created by Michael ancel called the “raving rabbids”. The rabbids would be the primary enemies of the game and rayman would have to do things like dress up as various icons and dance to distract the rabbids and there would also be a creature taming mechanic in the game. Development was going well until someone from nintendo stepped in to check on the project and told ubisoft that they would not have enough time to make a platformer and release the game in time for the wii’s launch and holiday 2006. So the platformer was scrapped entirely and turned into the minigame collection we now know as “Rayman Raving Rabbids”, launching on wii in november 2006 then being ported to ps2, xbox 360 and pc.
If you wanna find out more, I recommend watching youtuber Frame Rater’s video on the rayman raving rabbids prototype. It’s a bit long but a very interesting watch.
Phoenix Games? The same one behind such dross like _Snow White & the Seven Clever Boys_ and _Animal Football?,_ that Phoenix Games? Guess Ubisoft dodged that bullet...
@@NotABot55 I meant to say “Phoenix studio”. I forgot exactly what they were called. All I remembered clearly was the “Phoenix” part.

A list of games I played at one point that are no longer playable due to being delisted or no longer supported tech:
That one Speed Racer browser game based on the original anime that was in 3D
A futuristic racer based on various candy brands that also had a separate version with vehicles from the Wachowski Speed Racer movie
That weird Just Dance clone for iPad that SEGA released around 2013/2014
Jet Set Radio on iOS/Android
The Sonic level creator for SEGA’s online game service from around 2008 - 2011
UB Funkeys (at least the online portion I think)
1:05 What DNAngel game is this?
RUclipsrs doing a Tim Rogers impressions are always hilarious to me, dunno why.
I used to have all of the DLC for Real Steel on PS3, but I've unfortunately lost the DLC due to license expiration. The PS3 versions of LittleBigPlanet 1 and 2 are also now unplayable in their launch forms. I'm just glad that PlayStation consoles are easily jailbreakable, since it makes archival much easier.
*NEW JONII VIDEO?!?! WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOO!*
jonii my boi
still waiting some fan traslation for SEGAGAGA in english o learn japanese at the time and trying to understand the simulator part.
hey if a quirked up white boy wanted to play that english translation of Tokimeki memorial where would he find it? also, is it just the SNES version? or are they working on the PS1 version as well?
Translated.Games has it as "Heartthrob Memorial". It's the snes version with no plans to do the ps1 version but it's still very good
As somebody who's played Super adventure rockman to completion i can safely say that... the game isn't worth playing even WITH a translation mostly due to how unforgiving it gets after the end of disc 1.
Seriously there's some encounters that are ludicrously hard without a weapon you can PERMANENTLY MISS in disc 2... and if you do get it you'll enter a war of attrition because it just makes it so you take 1hp worth of damage no matter what!
And don't get me started on Ramoon's phase 2 which is on the dictionary next to the term "Drawn out"... whats worse is that Ra Moon is one of 4 bosses that doesn't give you a chance to continue if you kick the bucket and the last save point is back at the boss BEFORE phase 1... so have fun rewatching 20 minutes of cinema!
I think this illustrates very well why a cutscene-skip is important in games, even if it is just for cutscenes already watched.
Honestly, the question of regional diffrences isn't even a question. It's just a statement. Trying to work it out is more often than not just a confusing mountain of oof and it's best left alone. I won't ever be able to play Mother 2 and Yu-gi-oh Duel Monsters 5 Expert 1 in english and especially other languages, but Earthbound and Yu-gi-oh The Eternal Duelist Soul are still here(Though the mentioned Yu-gi-oh game still isn't in other languages, lol).
We are not really talking original intention anyways, outside of some gamescripts having really terrible translation that desperately needs to be redone. Because if we were, then we would have to include the question of bugs. Should bugs that were fixed in localization stay fixed or be re-broken? Should ones that were never fixed be, if they completely screw up the developer intention? And then there is the behemoth of all of these topics combined. The myth, the legend, the meme: The first two JP-only Pokemon games, Red and Green. Some of the most broken videogames of all time, and also historically obnoxious to make a proper attempt at a translation for, to the point where someone instead decided to just not deal with it and remade Green in the rom of Blue. How to even approach that mess?
16:10 Rip DL...
you are awesome
Long time no see my broo
8:14 I would personally say Ace Combat 3 is a bar that clearly demonstrates that point, where the English version is very far removed from the original.
Both the original and international versions have the same gameplay for the most part, but the story content is so different between regions that it really does feel like playing two different games. At least with this, there is a translation patch that lets non-japanese speakers play the developers' original vision.
*And also, thanks for understanding the supremacy of Hikari Hinomoto, more people need to know about it, even if Miyuki Kotobuki is superior-er*
8:48 monkeyball timestamp
May I ask for the context of the "am i real" soundbite?
looks like chris chan lol
It's an Easter egg on the ADV release for Neon Genesis Evangelion. You can see the whole clip on youtube, just look up "Shinij's rant". It's about the animes ending so keep that in mind.
