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.

You are correct as soon as you answered ~Ootsuka Sae ver.~” (answering questions from MCs freely) and “Talking like a scary story” (telling an ordinary episode as it is a scary ghost story), were held during the show. ■Being friends for more than 7 years! What is “surprising” characteristic of Aimi being revealed by Ootsuka Sae? This episode was full of beautiful yukata voice actresses, who dressed up for “Yukata WEEK”. At the opening greeting, Uesaka began to talk as it is meetup, by saying “I am wearing yukata today~”, and Komatsu and Aimi reacted, “wow, it’s Giza cute~”, “I am the summer girl” and “how beautiful you are~”, and they all praised others’ outfits with the use of otaku vocabulary. Then the guest Ootsuka entered the show with a beautiful yukata with orange and purple flowers printed on the black textile, and the 3 MCs greeted her, “welcome, miss” (with Kyoto dialect) with round of applause. They cheered by saying, “it’s so exciting to drink with yukata!” and “It is so traditional”. Aimi and Ootsuka work together at “Poppin’ Party”, the voice actress group from the media mix project called “BanG Dream!”, for more than 7 years. They seemed to be the good friends, since they both “have similar ideas” and “cares about others in similar ways and timings”. Moreover, “Quiz! You are correct as soon as you answered ~Ootsuka Sae ver.~” was held during the show. The MCs asked whatever they were interested in about Ootsuka freely and she responded one by one. Aimi began to ask her first question, “what do you like about Aimi”, to Ootsuka, who is willing to answer all questions that she received, and Ootsuka quickly responded “friendliness”. Ootsuka explained, “She has a God-given talent of making a workplace happy, and I believe that is one of her talents” and Aimi followed with her “talented” simile to camera right away with pleasure. The MCs followed the first question related to Aimi, such as “what is the one thing that you cannot forgive about Aimi?” and “what is your characteristic that you think ‘Aimi like’?”. Ootsuka and Aimi discussed by saying, “we always show new things about us”, “we rely on each other because we are mature” and “she often tells about her with eyes”, and Komatsu and Uesaka seemed to understand their strong bonds by commenting “they look like having a nice relationship” and “they are good partners”. Furthermore, to the question, “what is the most ‘surprising’ thing about Aimi that you have seen so far?”, Ootsuka quickly wrote down that “she ate 3 bowls of rice at the restaurant during midnight”. She introduced the episode of eating rice without hesitate while having a diet, and made Komatsu and Uesaka surprise that “wow, she is brave~!”, “her switch is on”, and “Aimi with her ‘ON’ switch turned on”. Otosuka then continued, “hey, I remember what was more surprising…”, and revealed that a mouse is kept in her refrigerator as food for her snake. It made Komatsu Uesaka surprise, but Aimi reacted by her love toward snakes by saying, “hey, snakes are wonderful”, and “my snake is about 130 cm”. Komatsu and Uesaka seemed to be motivated and showed their interest “I want to take a look” and “it is the world that I don’t know”.

"Say You to Yoasobi Tuesday 'Komatsu Mikako X Uesaka Sumire X Aimi' #25" featuring the voice actress Komatsu Mikako, Uesaka Sumire, and Aimi was broadcast on October 20, 2021, on the "Anime LIVE Channel" of the new futuristic TV "ABEMA". This broadcast is known as the "Normal Special", where they destroyed the "Destruction's Wednesday", and they even challenge solving the riddle in the corner "Let's solve the riddle normally". Other than that, they had also discussed about their costumes for the "Halloween Special Week" the following week. This broadcast is a "Normal Special", where the members did the broadcast "normally" as they destroyed the "Destruction's Wednesday". The corner "Let's solve the riddle normally" feature the members solving the riddles, which is also a corner that Aimi hoped for. The rule was they are supposed to write the answer on the given board without letting the others see it when they knew the answer, but when the first riddle appeared, Komatsu immediately answered "Suika (Watermelon)!" in a loud voice and this had caused an upstir in the studio. Despite answering with the correct answer, Uesaka and Aimi retorted with "Mikako, are you part of the audience?" and "It seems like you had become part of the audience", which cause Komatsu to laugh as she had "destroyed" the rule right away while saying "I was like watching a quiz program". After they regained their composure, the riddle-solving lover Komatsu and Aimi were able to solve the 2nd riddle immediately, but Uesaka is having a hard time figuring out the answer. After getting the answer with the hints given, her eyes were glittering as if she was addicted to the enjoyment after solving it while saying "Riddle solving is so fun!!". Then, Aimi tested them with her self-created riddle. However, just when Komatsu wanted to answer it loudly, she hurriedly remained quiet and said "Oops, I almost say it again. I would get angry!", which cause the studio to be surrounded by laughers. On the other hand, Uesaka was puzzled as she was unable to solve it, but after listening to the explanations from Aimi, she praise Aimi with "Are you a genius!? It was amazing!". Uesaka also mentioned "I also wanted to create my own riddles" which showed her interest in the riddle-solving. Also, during the broadcast, they discussed the Halloween costume as "Halloween Special Week" will be held from October 25 to October 29, where the hosts of each day will dress up in a costume. In contrast to the cosplay lover and energetic Uesaka saying "Let's wear something cute!", Komatsu and Aimi showed an embarrassed expression. Both of them suggested costumes that are able to hide their face, but Uesaka rejected it with "I want to you make more use of your natural beauty! All the 50 otaku that are inside me are crying!" Uesaka tried her best to implore them with "I wanted to see both of you in a cute costume~" and "Why...both of you have a strong visual impression..." and the suggestion is shifted to a cute costume, both Komatsu and Aimi mentioned "How about a Panda?", "Let's put on the ear and wear a fluffy costume...", and "Let's go with a zoo theme!". After that, it seem that the costume are to be in the Chinese-style cosplay, such as "Panda", "Young Martial Artist", and "China Dress", but Uesaka voiced out her dissatisfaction "There is not enough moe!!" and started producing it on her own. As Komatsu and Aimi were overwhelmed by the various suggestions from Uesaka that is filled with "Moe", the discussion was forced to an end. Do look forward to the broadcast the following week to see what three of them are cosplaying as!
