[Impressions] Haraichi no Turn! *The 476th Turn!
Cat News
Oh~ Nippon! Nippon, Nippon
Nippon, nyan, nyan, nyan nyan nyan nyan! Starting with the cat version, this week's Turn has begun!
Sawabe-san wasn't selected for Best Jeanist again this year. He says he's given up on it lol. Sawabe-san is aiming for Best Bowtie-ist, and Iwai-san is aiming for Best Nike-ist! lol
Here is this week's Cat News
When Sawabe-san said, 'It's a good deed, but actually, it's a bad cat, maybe it bought marijuana itself like in Zootopia,' Iwai-san replied, 'I like Zootopia, so don't say things like that' lol. Sawabe-san's follow-up, 'I made a little mistake,' was cute lol.
Opening Talk
Last week was the Haraichi Live '!'! It was truly so much fun! The two of them had a packed schedule that day: rehearsal at Line Cube -> PK showdown at the Levain Cup final halftime show -> the live performance itself! I was watching the situation since the official X account was being updated right up until the live show started!!!
There was a question from a listener about the video shown during the intermission of the live show. They said they used AI this time, which allowed for movements that wouldn't normally be possible. So they really were using AI! I had a feeling, but it all makes sense now. Please do it again next year!! I'm looking forward to it!!
Hello Kitty Hollywood movie adaptation! I wonder what the Kitty-chan movie will be like. Will it be fluffy like Detective Pikachu, or as Iwai-san said, 'That Time I Was Reincarnated as Hello Kitty'!? And is it going to be an unexpected anthropomorphism? Is it Lady Gaga!?
I want them to just do a normal Kitty-chan movie without any weird twists lol
Here is this week's song
About last week's broadcast
Sawabe-san, who talked about going to the Oasis concert, mentioned the Noel Gallagher fan club exclusive New Year's lucky bag, and apparently, they were selling folding fans and Senjufuda (votive slips) lol.
Kansei Kogyo has become a sponsor!
Apparently, they are coming to the studio all by themselves with full dedication lol
Iwai-san also said that when his toilet was clogged, he called a number from a magnet and got ripped off, so he said, 'Those magnet places are no good!' lol
However, since Kansei Kogyo doesn't put out magnets, Iwai-san unilaterally certified them as an excellent company lol
So, starting next week, the 'Dokan-sensei's Clog Clearing Corner' will begin!
Images of small toilet goods and such will be in the post-recording notes!
Sawabe-san's Episode Talk
After the Haraichi live show, there were zero people waiting for them! I feel like I remember seeing 'no waiting' written somewhere. Thinking about it, they are fans with good manners. To Sawabe-san saying, 'I guess I'm not popular anymore,' Iwai-san replied, 'Sawabe-san's fans were zero to begin with' lol. Zero has been a joke since ancient times lol
I want to try waiting for them, but I don't know how lol
At the after-party, at a restaurant with delicious fish, everyone kept ordering food, eating away while feeling bad for their manager, Asakura-san, who is trying to slim down before his wedding lol. And even though the sashimi platter was supposed to be calculated as one piece per person for each type, there was one piece of yellowtail left over, and for Sawabe-san, it's unforgivable not to know which fish he had eaten lol. And apparently, Iwai-san said, 'I don't know if I ate it, so I'll try eating it once' lololol
After that, Sawabe-san and Muneoka-san ordered crab cream croquettes (the kind with two on a plate). Later, Iwai-san and Miyazaki-san decided they wanted some, and another food dispute broke out lol
And towards the end, Sawabe-san got the urge to watch the NBA while eating cup ramen at home, so even though everyone else was eating the final course, he stopped eating entirely lololol. Sawabe-san, a man who doesn't bend once he's made a decision, bought a canned beer and ginger soy sauce ramen at a convenience store on the way home and successfully achieved his goal lol. And then, feeling full and sleepy, he just changed into his pajamas and went to sleep, only to be scolded by his wife, 'The autumn pollen is terrible right now! This is the worst!' lololol
It really did feel like the autumn pollen was bad this year lol. His wife would get angry, wouldn't she lol
Iwai-san's Episode Talk
Iwai-san was scheduled to do a PK showdown at the Levain Cup on the day of the Haraichi live show. He had been approached by his manager about it a few months ago and decided to accept.
And usually, right before a live show, he would practice his routine or memorize it, but this time, because of the Levain Cup, he couldn't, so Iwai-san decided to focus his energy on the memorization process for the first time.
He finished the routine a week before, so he decided to memorize it while walking outside for 2-3 hours starting at midnight. Amazing!
Since he was concentrating on memorizing, he didn't know where he was going while walking, and apparently, he once walked three stations away.
Moreover, since he couldn't notice people coming from behind, he couldn't lower his voice, so he was walking around like a suspicious person talking to himself while using gestures lol
Since he was walking unconsciously, there were times when he realized a woman was walking in front of him, and since he didn't want to be thought of as a suspicious person, he chose the path opposite to the woman at a fork in the road, but the path connected further ahead, and since Iwai-san's walking speed was faster, they met again at the junction and were both surprised and backed away lololol. That's too crazy lol
And the craziest part is that when he was walking behind that woman, it was a dead-end street, and it turned out that the woman was from the apartment at the very end. This is too scary lol. It's like he was a suspicious person following a woman lol
And the day before the live show, around 2 AM, he was blankly looking at a counter bar where you could see inside from the outside, and the owner asked him, 'Would you like to come in and have a drink today?' Thinking about it, he had been staring blankly at it for a week, so Iwai-san thought, 'Maybe they think I'm someone who wants to enter but can't?' Moreover, it was Halloween, and the store was in a welcome mood, but he ended up refusing and became a boring person, so he realized that he has to be careful at night when memorizing like this lololol. Realizing it too late lol
Please be careful not to be reported as a suspicious person! lol
After Talk
At the Haraichi live after-party, manager Asakura-san was drinking explosive highballs and got drunk, and apparently, he fell backward with the bag Iwai-san had entrusted to him! He's drunk, isn't he~!
And after the after-party, Iwai-san went to a bar with his wife. While everyone else was leaving separately and sadly lol
Then, at the restaurant they went to for the after-party, there was someone who had actually attended the live show! An email had arrived!
After attending the live show, the listener had a drink and was about to leave the restaurant when they encountered the after-party members waiting for someone, and they clearly backed away two or three steps and were flustered lol. They are an interesting person lol
Still, such a coincidence is too enviable~!!
Despite it being the day after the live show, Iwai-san went to jiu-jitsu properly. Apparently, he is still doing his 'kimo-kimo' (creepy) jiu-jitsu lol
Sawabe-san apparently went for hair removal the day after the live show lololol
Iwai-san says he doesn't feel like it's getting thinner at all lol
Nobuyuki Sakuma-san went to the second day of the Oasis concert, and apparently, he said on the radio that Noel Gallagher said 'Muchas Gracias' lololol. That's crazy lol. The flow is completely coming lol. Iwai-san says that if he's coming to Japan and saying 'Muchas Gracias' now, the only thing he can think of is that he's listening to Haraichi no Turn! lololol. Since Noel Gallagher was also a 'Taro', Noel Taro was born lol. Noel is the same as Yashima-san lol
And 'Muchas Gracias' became Iwai-san's signature bit lololol
