Yeah. I think there's Iron Chef Chinese, Iron Chef Japanese, and Iron Chef Italian. I don't know the others' names; somehow, the challenger always chooses Sakai when I watch. It's a hysterical show. They tried to make an English version, and it just didn't work.
It wasn't that... the chefs really don't act, they just cook. It just didn't work. I can't describe why... part of the fun of the show was the dubbing and the peek into Japanese pop culture.
