Happy Fireball Day, to all those who celebrate (which, in my opinion, should be everyone)!

 

Fireball? 

Fireball is a dry comedy; a really good one. To find out more, I urge you to find my secret blog post talking about Fireball.

 

Day?

It just so happens that today is 7th of April, which is the same day as Fireball's original broadcast date. Let's celebrate! It's Drossel's special day!

 

Celebrate how?

I've compiled a few interesting videos into a handy little archive, which you can download here.

PS: catbox.moe is an incredible service. Check it out if you want to upload something! 

In this archive, you will find: 
-A complete TV rip of season 1, complete with advertisements from before and after each episode! Isn't it weird that they literally all have the same beginning and end ad? Also, where's the channel ID? No "ID"ea. If you're wondering what's up with two episode 13s, me too. 

-A spot promoting Fireball. I'm a moron and titled this one "June 25", but that's not what the characters mean. Please forgive me. It actually means "every day at 6:25", to my understanding. This spot uses the same exact footage as a future spot that advertises the DVD's release. The spot advertising the DVD has been found in much higher quality and can be found here, hence why I excluded it from the archive.

-I have no idea what's up with these Fireball Charming episodes. I think they're actually webrips? I do not think there ever actually was a "Disney Channel" in Japan. The closest approximation would be DLIFE. I may be wrong though.

-A few Charming TV spots. "spot 2" is my favorite because it has a ribbon ID-esque style to it, which is what I expect from a Disney Channel spot. You could say it's charming. Same story as above for Blu-Ray and series spots. Except that the Blu-Ray spot is twice as long? It also seems to me that these are both truncated versions of this spot.

-A Fireball Humorous webrip that advertises the show (I think?). 

-A few Fireball Humorous station IDs. These are somehow Wand ID, Ribbon ID and Object ID all at once. I'm not a true Disney Channel fan so I couldn't possibly categorize this one. Oh well.

-Outside of the subfolders, we have a fan song I found on Niconico. Honestly, it shouldn't be here, but I like it a lot. More content never hurt anybody, right?

-A recording of Fireball's Tokyo MX booth. Extremely fascinating video because we can spot the red Fireball logo, alongside a life-size Drossel statue. AFAIK, this is the only existing video recording of the booth, rather than just plain images. I really want to get my hands on a Tokyo MX Fireball DVD one day..

-My personal emoji recreations of Drossel emojis that were included with Disney's mobile phone plan in Japan. I think they're cute <3

 

But that's not all! In this link you can find the entirety of Fireball Charming with Dlife ID. Wow! 

 

I've also compiled a few fanmade videos into a YouTube playlist, if you want to go check them out.

 

That's all! Have a good Fireball Day!
