He completed the delayed final episode and uploaded the second season to YouTube, ending with the pair's laptop breaking due to interference by [[Dokuku]].

Thorn was initially iffy on the idea behind Yoshi's blog, but found that he liked the result so much that he wanted to make his own. He went with Giroro and Dororo because Yoshi was not doing an ''SFA'' blog, which Thorn knew people would ask questions about (Yoshi has confirmed that they have), and because Yoshi was no longer invested in the series.

History and Plot

The blog was made into an audio series on June 25, 2012. Early episodes were played as Giroro and Dororo sitting in front of a laptop in Giroro's tent late at night, answering the questions while relaxing and drinking soda. On Episode 5 they began traveling the world investigating the time lock the Garuru Platoon set on Earth during the SFA Season 2 finale. Keroro also joined the cast at the end of Episode 7 for the season, and Kululu and Tamama joined for Episodes 10 and 11. The first season and story arc concluded with Episode 12, and Sgt Frog Abridged: Reset followed from this arc.

The series was canceled when Thorn dissolved TheMidnightFrogs on May 25, 2014, and the Tumblr account was closed that same day. Thorn retracted the decision to end TheMidnightFrogs two days later, but he still decided not to continue Ask GiroDoro, being tired of it. He completed the delayed final episode and uploaded the second season to YouTube, ending with the pair's laptop breaking due to interference by Dokuku.

Dororo vomits up a new, working laptop at the end of Episode 21, and while it was merely a surreal joke, Thorn was asked if it meant the ask blog would be revived. He did so on August 13, 2015, and questions are currently being gathered for Episode 16.
