The first performance, filmed at a game centre in Tokyo’s Odaiba area and shared on Twitter by onlooker kinokoboy2013, shows the drummer performing an entire song without ever once looking at the screen behind him. Since the clip was posted, it’s received tens of thousands of likes and retweets in just a matter of days. It’s given us some impressive performances in the past, from hip-swinging, jumping maniacs to staid sumo wrestlers, and now there’s a new contender for king of the game, who’s making news online with two performances that are so riveting it’s hard to look away. If we could choose any arcade game to watch players perfect in Japan, we’d pull up a chair in front of the “Taiko no Tatsujin” (“Drum Master”) machine. One of Japan’s most famous gamers tops all other performances we’ve ever seen by marching and drumming up a storm, clearing the song without looking at the screen.
