Maaan, blast from the past! Mamotte Shugogetten was a mostly forgettable Aah, Megami-sama clone, but Saa was a great OP! I think I'll fire it up when I get home....

I was thinking yesterday of that song and didn't know anything about it's most recent popularity until reading this news. What a coincidence!

The surge in popularity caught Yoshiharu Shiina, the singer and songwriter of "Saa," by surprise; he had not seen the skit. Nishino contacted him via Twitter to inform him that the song made a great impression on him, apologize for using it without Shiina's permission, and request further use of the song. Shiina granted the request, but wants to be informed of this use so he can watch the skits. He also suggested teaming up with Korochiki in the future, which Nadal got very excited over.


In America, they would've gotten sued lol. I love this outcome.

Not sure if this was one of those uncommon instances of vindication by history.

Just me or did anyone else find this skit to be rather unfunny? Confused
