TyphoonBling and I were good friends; It's a shame that he did, indeed, had to take a step back from the PaRappa fanbase, particularly due to events transpiring on the PaRappa message board we were in charge of during 2007-2009. It was called Pink Milk N Munchies. I'd be happy to divulge more information if anyone is interested. I do recall that translating the anime into subbed was one of his side-projects on the message board, and he wanted to make his channel popular.

He had a video titled "Lucky Star Balls of Steel" and for many years I thought that was the actual Name of the Show. If there is any chance to see archived versions of some of his videos that would be amazing. I miss his Intro with clips of Katy and Paula with some female voice saying something like "I SEE HO... HOTAI" or something like that. Also remember his Avatar was of Katy in the Green Outfit from the Sports Episode and he had a Kat Station TV Banner from the Matto Vs. Paula Episode

A user who goes by "Plague Cure" has a full playlist archive as well, they're a good friend of mine and have even tried going far as unmarking any episodes flagged as children's videos (they haven't with a select few but they're still here regardless). More accurate subbing is also slowly being produced. So now I'd like a documentary on the 2016 anniversary-based series of shorts "PJ Berri no mogumogu munyamunya". That show's story is rather interesting, and user "PaRappa the Hat" can tell you most of his experience with it. My side of the story was that I was interested in searching for info on that show since my integration in the fandom in 2017, but did nothing about it. Until when one day, over 2 years ago, I decided to go on intense lost media research binges during the freetimes at school as a small hobby. After a long while and several days to weeks, I stumbled across a page on the green Lost Media Wiki site explaining the history of findings in regards, and it also had a link to a page on Mega hosting a video of the entire first season, which contained the 11 lost episodes that Redditor "Speedbeatz" found, and therefore I could download the video for archival. Then PaRappa the Hat just so happened to come to my channel to compliment me on a video with a pair of singing fish and so it was the perfect opportunity to tell him I had the episodes after my research journey. I sent a link to him via Google Photos so he could take and upload it (he can somehow bypass the Japanese YT copyright systems, and that's how he was able to upload the first 9). Of course, he was beyond excited and asked if he could put it up, to which I happily agreed, and now everyone's struggling to look for someone to sub this anime as well. Another great milestone indeed. But just remember in all this, I wasn't the one who found the rest of it. Again, it was Speedbeatz whom officially took the major step. I only downloaded the video to archive and send it to Hat for him to upload to the public. So all credits go to only those 2
