"Say You to Yoasobi Wednesday'Komatsu Mikako X Uesaka Sumire X Aimi' #26" featuring the voice actresses Komatsu Mikako, Uesaka Sumire, and Aimi was broadcast on October 27, 2021, on the "Anime LIVE Channel" of the new futuristic TV "ABEMA". This was the third broadcast of the "Halloween Special Week", where the hosts of each day are dressed up in a costume, and the three hosts, Komatsu, Uesaka, and Aimi appear in the "China" theme. Various Halloween special corners, such as "Wednesday's Original Trick or Treat! Cheap Dim Sum Exchange" and "Let's record a Halloween-like Sound Effect". As the broadcast is a "Halloween Special", the three hosts appeared in the "China" theme costume while walking down the red carpet. Toward the three different appearance of the host, where Uesaka was wearing a China-style maid uniform, Aimi was a shy martial artist boy, and Komatsu was a wild panda, the audiences commented "It's so furry!", "Everyone is so cute!", "This is a sight for sore eyes!". After the three of them gathered up, they showed off their respective coordination, and the cosplay-lover Uesaka was excited toward the rare cosplay appearance of Komatsu and Aimi while saying "One of the fun things of Halloween is the shyness as you can't get used to the costume", "It's irresistible", and "The wild style is also cute~". Then, Uesaka posed to the camera while saying "Happy Halloween" as she showed off her service spirit by turning in high spirit. This caused Komatsu and Aimi to shout out "Ahhh!" and "It's out of this world!". The three host then cheers with the "China"-like drinks, which are Shaoxing wine and Oolong Tea, and the Halloween party started with a blast. The first corner "Wednesday's Original Trick or Treat! Cheap Dim Sum Exchange" featured the three exchanging the Dim Sum with a total value of 1000 JPY that they bought respectively. Along with the cue of "Trick or Treat! If you don't give me the cheap Dim Sum, I will play trick on you", they had showed off the prepared Dim Sum. However, an unexpected development had unfolded. Komatsu's choice of the convenience store's fried rice, spicy shrimp, and Xiaolongbao, Aimi's choice of the approximately 1000 JPY of a famous restaurant with 6 Xiaolongbao in a pack, and Uesaka's choice of "Seijo Ishii"'s Mapo Doufu and Xiaolongbao, have a mutual food, which is "Xiaolongbao". Toward the orthodox dim sum dish, the three nodded at the statement of "When we talk about dim sum, it should be Xiaolongbao!", and enjoyed comparing the taste of each Xiaolongbao while saying "These are all below 1000 JPY!? Convenience store is so amazing!", "The famous restaurant! It so tasty!", "You can feel the meaty juice!". On the second half of the program, the corner "Let's record a Halloween-like Sound Effect" was held, where the three of them recorded the Halloween-like sound effect and the sound effect unique to "Destruction Wednesday". There is a possibility that the recorded audio will be used on the "Halloween Special" limited opening trailer that will be played on Thursday and Friday. They had challenged recording various sound effect, such as the laughter of a bat and Dracula, and "WAO", upon the instructions by the staff. Komatsu has showed off a high-pitched laughter of "Gegegegege~", Uesaka has showed off various "WAO!" in a sexy version and horror version, and Aimi somehow answered with a sentence "My name is Aimi. The Dracula Aimi~". Toward Aimi "destroying" the recording of sound effect immediately, Uesaka showed off a splendid retort in Kansai dialect, saying "Why are you talking? Didn't they say they want a sound effect?". After that, it seemed that Aimi had understood it as she said "I got it! I can do it now!", and during the take two, she mentioned "Wahahaha.... Aimi. Wahahahaha... Aimi" without forgetting to appeal her name has caused another strong retort and the studio was filled with laughter. At the end of the program, it was revealed that Fairouz Ai will appear as a guest on November 3 broadcast. The three of them are looking forward to the broadcast while saying "Fai-chan!", "She'll destroy it nicely!".
