And a quote from Matsumoto:
"And again this year, it was very very rough."
And a quote from me (the biggest aviation enthusiast on this forum)…to anyone who’s seen my comments in chat…"IM STILL SPASMING!!!"
Hrm. This concerns me slightly, since it seems real cookie cutter given the past couple of years. It’s almost like these events have been standardized. And then on the other hand, what do we have to worry about? These guys know what they are doing. I have every confidence in yet another hilarious new year.
[quote="ShadiHD":2zwv1p5k]you know…hopefully If I didn’t get busy around january, I’ll join the subbing team [/quote:2zwv1p5k]
me too shad wanted to join but on the timing section
coz continuing translating other series after my project
Airport Attendants is really not what I was expecting,
what worries me is how many types of situations associated with a flight attendants job would be fun to watch…
there dont seem to be many (check in counters,… people carrying banned substances/weapons, baggage checks etc)…
but ill leave it up to the GnT guys to get it done
Thanks to Wingslats for the Info above!
Good to see all the subbers so enthusiastic about getting to work on this one.
Thanks for the support you give to the community and the fans of Gaki
Hi, I just recently joined this board but I am interested in helping with the subbing for the airport batsu game. Is there anyone I can contact with some of my translations from Japanese to english once I have had a chance to watch the raw version? My Japanese is ok since I lived there for seven years from second grade to eighth grade. I also want to mention that I am a graduating senior from college so I will only have a little time to work on the subbing-- I will be swamped with graduate school applications during the time.

Here’s the information that I found on this Batsu Game.
This year the batsu game will be held in an Airport, where the members will be turned into cabin attendants. The shooting was held under full cooperation with Ibaraki Airport (Ibaraki Prefecture, Omitama city). The airport opened on Mar 11th last year, which is the very same day that the Great East Japan Earthquake hit this year. The staff related to the project started shooting with their wish for owarai to provide psychological support to victims.
Matsumoto Hitoshi(48), who has gotten the most punishments for 4 years in a row until last year, recalls the tremendous 24 hours, saying “It was hard enough again this year.”
