Pretty darn amazing, but sorry, crickets are just kimochi warui! (disgusting!) Can't explain why I don't like them, but I never have...

I used to carefully catch black crickets when I was little (er, well into high school) and put them up in makeshift terrariums in my bedroom and feed them blueberry halves in exchange for songs. I'd release them the next day so they could go about their cricket business.

Reminds me I have to feed my lizards! Very cool though, thanx.
