I don't see why people are obsessed with this. Nanaca Crash was actually pretty fun, but this just gives you carpal tunnel.

76 tarako for me. Out of interest, what the hell is a "tarako" anyway? Is it a Japanese doll of some kind, or something else?

If nothing else, I'll wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat with that song running through my head.

Does Nanaca Crash need any more skill apart from timing a 45 degree angle and obtaining max power? It seemed pretty random to me, with all hope residing on hitting the girls (excluding that cute one with the glasses, and the dodging girl) so you could be shot forwards.

I still have yet to identify exactly what a Tarako is. Could someone please enlighten me?

Nanaca Crash has a bit of skill in that you get a few extra hits, so theoretically you could re-hit with the bicycle at the right moment and knock that guy into the right girl or away from the wrong one for extra length. I didn't really get into it, myself.

Tarako is cod roe. Fish eggs. Apparently they mash them into these <a href="http://images.google.com/images?q=%E3%8 ... ">exciting shapes</a>.  "TsubuTsubu" refers to its "granulated texture." Ick.

The key to Nanaca Crash is mastering the Specials. If the word "Special" appears on the screen when you hit a certain girl, click the mouse and she'll do a special attack to push you along even further. This includes the glasses girl who gives the most powerful boost, but that's the hardest to utilize.

I thank you for the knowledge. Now I'm interest in having another go of Nanaca Crash since I honestly had no awareness of the Special's, or even about being capable of hitting the guy again whilst in mid-air. I’m also appreciative about knowing that in Tarako Fighter I’m actually clicking on fish eggs with baby doll faces on them, because now I know just how truely disturbing this game is.

I'm afraid Japanese cuisine is one aspect of the culture I'm never going to be able to wholly embrace.

But who doesn't like fermented soy beans and fish eggs?
