Oh hey, Rising Zan!
This game was in fact not just loading, and so it's a shorter episode. Enjoy this Patreon exclusive mini episode. Don't call him Johnny.

I come from the distant year of 2026 and I want an NSP cover of this theme song!
I know this is mega late, but those things he drops during the boss fight, are Wash Basins. It's a long running Japanese gag to have a wash basin drop on a characters head (you see it a ton in Anime) They look a lot like giant pie plates, so some people think that's what they are, but nay they are a wash basin, fun fact, now you know this trope, you will see it in all your anime. It's literally the Japanese Equivalent of an Anvil or 10ton weight in Western Cartoons (so no it's not some random Japanese weirdness, we do it to).
This game looks INCREDIBLE.
Wow, how upsetting. I could've happily watched like 80 episodes of this at 60 minutes each. But at least I got to see it on Patreon. :)
Seeing this unlocked a memory of couch-gaming this with friends, and mercilessly making fun of it.
Eff asking the question we all have been asking for years. “WHICH IS IT?!”
what an episode
Rising Zan; Kissing Man. Jackie Chan. I like flan. Coffee can. Vince McMahon. If I don't stop I could get a ban...
I'm so blessed to be a Patron so I could see this work of art.
Wait, I'm Rising?
This episode will elevate you past the rising sun
Oh crap, I want to see more of this.
Never heard of it before, looks like a game that keeps on giving for sure
I need to see more of Jhonny's adventures to aquire sexys
I guess they weren't using an emulator in this case.
I loved this game on the PS2 and I only wish they would have gotten to the parts where people actually shoot at them in game and they can activate the hero mode to deflect the bullets back. And if this could get made into a series.
Thanks for posting this, guys! Love me some additional grumpage
Such a shame that didn't work because that was amazing.
Omg I unironically adore this
This game seems like a great candidate for a remake. It's the perfect amount of ridiculous cheesiness, and the sword/gunplay could be a blast in the right hands. And that theme is just chef's kiss
Did anyone else notice that man screaming “Help Me” is the sound effect from super Mario maker? It just sounds a tad bit slowed down in Mario maker.
Yeah absolutely if y'all can get this to work I'd love to watch you rip it to pieces and play more xD Thank you for still sharing this bit of it either way!
Seeing this made my WEEK! Thank you so much for uploading this, I don't want to imagine having missed Johnny- I mean, Rising Zan (Johnny no more).
The opening song lyrics of this game sounds like something NSP would have written. Damn this is too funny my laughs turned into wheezing, I had to take a pause break to catch my breath. Leaving comment I am OK 😂👍
So great! Thanks for the mini. It was worth every second
so good! thanks for the treat!!
YES! I've been wanting you guys to play Rising Zan for so long. I knew Dan would love the theme song.
Oh my gosh I feel like we were blessed with a special episode...wait that's exactly what happened!🤣 This one was so much fun to watch and the theme will be stuck in my head!🤪
Yeah, I def need NSP or just Arin and Dan to cover that theme song, holy shit.
When are the covers coming out dan? 😂
This was like a friend sharing a bite of their really good dessert, loving it, and realizing you'll never taste something like that again because the restaurant is going out of business.
So much potential, as they all said, please do a full series
Damn, I'll be singing that theme song the rest of the week.
This was a masterpiece!
Johnny shot....but he missed....he woke up with a popcicle in his mouth...
It would be amazing if you find a way to continue this. It's so ridiculous and charming, an instant classic.
woah
Alright, GG needs to purchase Rising Zan and do either a sequel or a remake of the original, I think it would be a masterpiece
I actually really like this game lol This is the first I've seen of it, and it *looks* very of its time, but the voice acting is so fun to listen to. If you guys ever get this working I'd love to see more! Also anytime Dan references Mickey Mousecapade I get a smile on my face.
This was phenomenal, what a ridiculous game
i was wondering why this was a mini, RIP jhonny
This seems like the reverse of moving to Arizona as a weeb from Seattle
I would love for this to continue. This games level of ridiculousness meshes very well with the Grumps
PLEASE I need this too be a FULL FULL SERIES
That was fantastic lol
Now that theme is stuck in my head
Mini grump episode? I remember when this would have been a long grump episode.
I've never felt better about my Patreon investment, I super wanna play this game now!
5-15 minute mini episodes sound like a really cool patreon exclusive thing
Honestly, outtakes in general would be cool. Hell, I'd just take uncensored episodes like the Tony Hawk ones
I want them to them to finish Chicken in the darkness
mmmm delicious bonus grumps
Woah blessed with a mini grumps?!
