In true Japanese TV fashion this impetus for this episode is a pun. Arino all travel the 4 K's of Shikoku's 4 regions in glorious 4K (presented here in 720p)! Arino will be undergoing his own version of the famous Shikoku Pilgrimage but instead of visiting 88 temples he'll be attempting to play 88 arcade games.
Along the way he'll meet any manner of man, machine and monster much to the chagrin of Kibe. All whilst keeping in mind the goal of 88 arcade games being he makes it to his final destination, a fan meetup in Kagawan theme park.
But of course no travel episode would be complete without a challenge to accompany it. For that challenge Arino will be playing the appropriately themed and named, Kiki KaiKai for the TurboGrafx-16. A predesessor to the Pocky & Rocky games, Arino must guide Sayo-chan on her own pilgrimage in order to release the seven lucky gods. Will Arino conquer feudal Japan? Will luck be on his side? Will there be enough footage? Watch to find out!
