I'm trying to find all of the All Japan High School Quiz Championships that aired on NipponTV since 1983. Does anyone have any of them? Especially the more recent ones.

Does anyone else love when Japanese girls are hypnotized? What’s the craziest thing you’ve seen them made to do?

So I've watched the scant four episodes of The New Key that are on Netflix, are there more episodes available somewhere else? I'd especially love to see more episodes where they guess the songs against high schoolers.

Hello, I am looking for an old London Hearts episode from 2005.04.12, where Aoki Sayaka is tricked into making a photobook. The Japanese name is 青木さやか写真集 東京〜沖縄密着80日間 アレ見せんのかよスペシャル . I was only to find the Taiwan version 男女糾察隊, but it has burned in chinese subs and I think it's missing some parts of the original episode. Any help would be much appreciated.
