Shimono Hiro and Namikawa Daisuke Send Messages to New “Partners” Taniyama Kisho and Hanae Natsuki! “Say You to Yo Asobi” New Season MC Announced!
On "Say You to Yo Asobi WEEKEND New Structure Announcement SP" broadcast on April 1, 2023, Seki Tomokazu, Namikawa Daisuke, Morikubo Showtaro, Yasumoto Hiroki, Shimono Hiro, Okamoto Nobuhiko, Kaneda Tomoko, and Ishikawa Kaito made an appearance. In addition to announcing the new structure of the upcomming season "Say You to Yo Asobi 2023," which will begin its sixth year in April, they discussed the past seasons. The broadcast began in an after-party mood with a "Cheers" to the final "Weekend" of the "Say You to Yo Asobi 2022" season. Before announcing the new structure, the program started with a look back at the past seasons of "Yo-Asobi" and the past MCs. When reflecting on the 2022 season, Yasumoto said, "Okamoto Nobuhiko worked too hard" and "He was so enthusiastic that he made me go another round on the electric shock chair for the final episode, even though I didn't have to, and my butt almost got destroyed..." Okamoto had a sadistic reply, "It looked like a lot of fun. I couldn't tell that Yasumoto-san was in pain." As the ranking of guest appearances over the past five years was announced, Seki shared a "Yo Asobi" episode with a big-name guest, which he said was particularly common on Fridays. "I think I tied up Yamadera (Koichi)-san in tortoise shell bondage. Mitsuya (Yuji)-san and Inoue Kazuhiko-san too. I'm surprised they let me do it." An aggressive "play" only Seki can offer. When mentioning Matsumoto Rika's three appearances, Seki complained to the staff, saying, "She's my senior who has taken care of me since my debut, and I feel so indebted to her," and "When the staff wants to punish me, they bring Matsumoto-san. Later, Namikawa predicted, "Matsumoto Rika-san and Seki-san (for the new season)?" Seki’s unusually cowering response filled the studio with laughs, "Oh no, absolutely impossible!" As they enjoyed a friendly review of the past five years of broadcasting, it was finally time to announce the new structure. It was announced at the luxurious "Shinjuku Yunika Vision," and Kaneda and Sobi appeared on site to watch the announcement with the fans. The new structure and the appointment of Shirai Yusuke, Taniyama Kisho, Aina Suzuki, and Hanae Natsuki as the new MCs were finally announced. The fans who came to watch the event cheered, and viewers commented, " This is crazy exciting," "The members are amazing," "I literally screamed," and "I have to watch all episodes". After that, they talked about their enthusiasm for the future. Shimono says that he and his new partner, Taniyama Kisho, are such good friends that they hang out at each other's houses in private. Since this is the first time he is teaming up with a man, Seki is excited, saying, "I think I may see something I have never seen before in Shimono-kun," to which Shimono responds, "Since we are both men, it is highly possible that I could be tied up too (laughs). When asked about his relationship with his new partner Hanae, Namikawa replied, "He thinks of me as his little brother! He always makes fun of me," confessing to having an unreserved relationship. The MCs agreed, saying, "That's your distance," and "I can understand." Namikawa then said, "He's a genius at live broadcasting, but I don't know how he's going to come out for 'adult' nightlife," suggesting that it will be an unpredictable Yo Asobi experience. The new Friday duo of Seki and Okamoto, who have never spoken to each other in-depth, talked about their distant relationship, and Morikubo (MC of Walkers) and Ishikawa (MC of Weekend), who have taken over as MCs, talked about the renewal of "Walkers," which has become a strip program, and "Weekend," which will hold a live public broadcast once a month. The last message was "Please continue to support us in the 6th year!" and closed the final episode of "Yo Asobi" of the season. In addition, an extended live pay-per-view broadcast on "ABEMA PPV ONLINE LIVE" after the live broadcast ended, with the message "Celebration! Namikawa Daisuke turns 47! Birthday Gift Event" was held. Each member gave Namikawa a gift that they had prepared, but Okamoto gave him "R18" curry chips, which were known to be extremely spicy, and for some reason, all the members ended up eating them... The crazy birthday party, where the studio was flooded with screams over the extremely spicy chips, is now exclusively available on "ABEMA Premium". (C)AbemaTV,Inc.

Voice actor Namikawa Daisuke’s TV Program “Namikawa-n-chi ni Shuugou Na!” Begins in January 2023! Shimono Hiro and Tsuda Kenjiro as a Guest, Sugiyama Noriaki for the Narrator
Voice actor Namikawa Daisuke's TV program "Namikawa-n-chi ni Shuugou Na! (Let’s Meet at Namikawa’s!) will be broadcast from January 2023 on BS Nippon TV, TOKYO MX, and other stations. The program will be narrated by Sugiyama Noriaki, and guests will include Shimono Hiro and Tsuda Kenjiro. A comment from Namikawa was also released. "Namikawa-n-chi ni Shuugou Na!" is a talk show in which various guests come to "Namikawa's house (studio)" to talk about diverse topics. The guests will talk freely in a relaxed atmosphere as MC Namikawa will draw out their charms. Shimono Hiro will be the guest for the first and second episodes, followed by Tsuda Kenjiro for the third and fourth. They will talk about their work, hobbies, and personal lives, as well as behind-the-scenes stories, which is not often shared. Other guests will also be invited for the future episodes. Voice actor Namikawa Daisuke's own TV show, "Namikawa-n-chi ni Shuugou Na!” will air on BS Nichtele from January 11, 2023, and TOKYO MX from January 12, 2023. The program is also scheduled to be distributed through various other services. A video with Namikawa's comments is now available on the program's official Twitter page. (Full text of Namikawa's comment) Daisuke Namikawa A new program will begin. Whether it will be a leisurely time or a wild one will depend on each guest, but I hope to deliver things that are not usually talked about or seen. I hope that each guest will have a different expression or atmosphere that can only be seen at that particular time. Our first guest is Shimono Hiro. He and I are good friends, so we talked like we usually do, but we also had conversations about behind-the-scenes stuff that we don't usually share, such as where he stands as an actor. Kenjiro Tsuda comes next. Tsuda is serious and talks about what he likes, and I hope that this program will be a place where everyone can share and enjoy such a relaxed time with him. We tend to work a little too hard in front of the camera and on stage at events, so we hope you will enjoy the other sides of Kenjiro's personality, which he shares with us but not with his fans.
