uwu (vommit.tiff) makes me immediately think of this guys voice.

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

My first exposure to Takeshi's Castle was when I was in the US military and stationed in England in the early 2000s. I worked night shift and our shop has this old TV that only picked up a few stations. One of which was a German station that showed nothing but Takeshi's Castle and 900 number commercials. So, we spent our nights watching a insane Japanese game show subtitled in German with a bunch of commercials with topless women.

There's a new season on Prime Video 👀

It’s so fun to watch!

TIL 9 out of 12 astronauts have won Takeshi Castle

[–] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The winners of Takeshi's castle are closer to the pyramids than the astronauts that have stood on the moon. Feel old yet?

I wonder how many injuries were caused. That stepping stone game must have broken it’s fair share of shins and teeth…

They are bringing it back...

Like new season was announced very recently.

How in the hell was I not aware.... Grabbing now off the trackers. Good call out

It's already out! It's on Amazon Prime (ugh) but it came out in April. I've seen the first 2 episodes and they're really good.

I watched some of the new Takeshi's Castle with neither subs nor dubs and found it enjoyable regardless. It might be the way I watch anime going forward. Asserting dominance through willful ignorance.

For me it used to come in TV with hindi commentary, which was absolutely hilarious lol.

[–] JollyBrancher@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Glad to hear somewhere else did this! USA had "MXC" as for its equivalent.

[–] Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 years ago

My girlfriend showed it to me recently and it was bonkers. I love that they didn't even pretend like it made sense lul. Amazing.

jaaved jaaferi was the best

The UK version was narrated by Craig Charles and he really made it better just by adding silly comments over the top. I always used to laugh when the water cannon challenge was on and he would excitedly say "don't let them penetrate your rings"

like that 4chan greentext about reading all the classics in the original language, whether or not he could read it.
