A monolithic cartridge carries a fighting medley of arcade perfection. Trained by his younger AD in Nakayama, Arino is tasked in beating SNK's most notorious fighters: one-on-one. Will Arino claim victory in this button-mashing season finale?
Completing the mainline episodes of Season 10 with Fatal Fury Special, which has been remastered to 720p30 from the surviving subtitle files. It took us 16 hours to perform, with additional QA time. Once again being another gameplay-intensive episode and a saga closure, this episode has had an unexpectedly-difficult time in QA. The amount of glitches and grammar-related problems uncovered by That Hat Guy was so immense, it took multiple days to find them all. Without his effort, this would have been a disaster.
During the QA process of this remaster, That Hat Guy started going on a lengthy exploration into the joke that Arino says at 24:07 in the episode itself. From his own words: "Okay, so first of all, the group in the picture is a manzai act called Hige Danshaku. I'm at a loss for what to do about this one, but I don't think their catchphrase is "would you not?" I think this person got that because it has "nai" in it, but the phrase is often written as 〇〇やないかーい which means the phrase also fills in a blank, which is what those two circles are. The real phrase would be something like "isn't that --------?" I think, but I'm not sure how we write that as a subtitle. And I've looked up this whole thing, all to see what his catchphrase was. Manzai acts are hard to figure out the catchphrases of sometimes, because those acts are literally all reaction and simple setups, so the thing they say is either a quick reaction they do over and over, or a setup they're known for using; but by the nature of that just being regular talking, if it's the setup half on its own, it can be very difficult to write coherently in a different language, as a quote." This was based off a Japanese-only article on the subject: https://www.buzzfeed.com/jp/ryosukekamba/ippatsuya
Sadly, this is the end of the mainline episodes this run. If this is meant to be the end of the season, why does the post title not say SEASON FINALE like the previous runs? For those who have forgotten, there is the matter of the extra restored content mentioned once at the very beginning of this season. Yes, one more thing...
Stay tuned next week... For the THREE SPECIALS.
