■”I don’t want to fly again. I think this will be the last bungee video (lol)” (Ae! group, Ken Kojima)
“Nani Waka Ae! Kaze Fukimasu!” was broadcast on Kantele (Kansai local) from 19:00 on November 29th. ~A SP that delivers the charms of Kansai from land, sea, and air~” Naniwa Danshi to Ae! group’s first regular regular program “Naniwa Danshi to Ae! Kaze Fukimasu!” aired from November 2019 to March 2021. ‘ made a one-night-only revival after three and a half years.
This special program features a collaboration between two groups. Naniwa Danshi and the Ae! group have made their long-awaited debut, jumped out of Naniwa, and started making waves. Without forgetting our original intentions, we loved Kansai and did our best to promote the charm of Kansai from land, sea, and air in order to become a national group that is loved by Kansai.
Those who brought the charm from “land” were Ryusei Onishi, Kazuya Ohashi (both from Naniwa Danshi), Seiya Suezawa, and Akiya Sano (both from Ae! group). The four of them took on the challenge of “We can’t go home until we find a wonderful Kansai heritage site!” “Kotekote Kansai people = Kansai Heritage” who still cherish the language and culture unique to Kansai, such as people who use the Kansai dialect “kashiwa” (chicken) on a daily basis, and people who have five types of “sauce” at home. I ran around the shopping district looking for “.
Using all sorts of tricks, we successfully found the Kansai heritage site, but after the filming was finished, Suezawa said, “This was the first time we shot on location in a shopping district after our debut, so I was wondering how much Ae! group would notice us. , 90% of them were Naniwa boys,” he complained. Then Sano said, “Do you know our group name? “That question was more difficult than asking me to say “Kashiwa,”” he said, drawing laughter from the studio.
Next, Kento Nagao and Joichiro Fujiwara (both from Naniwa Danshi), Richard Keita Kusama, and Ken Kojima (both from Ae! group) conveyed the charm from the “sea.” The four of them said, “We went fishing in the Kansai sea! We caught 15 different kinds and ate sushi!” It was supposed to be a challenge of “Can you sing!?”, but due to heavy rain, the plan was suddenly changed to “Aim for 4 consecutive strikes! Takoyaki bowling”.
A special rule is that if you take turns throwing the ball, and if you don’t get a strike, you have to eat one takoyaki with delicious octopus caught in the Kansai sea. Richard, who was bowling for the first time in 10 years, got off to a bad start as he hit a gutter early on, but Nagao, Fujiwara, and Richard already succeeded in hitting three consecutive strikes in the 51st challenge. Due to an unexpected turn of events, Kojima is entrusted with being the fourth person.“(VTR) I don’t know if it’s short. It has nothing to do with the convenience of adults.”He showed a strong attitude, but he failed easily.
Halfway through, Richard left due to other work, and the remaining three members aimed for “four consecutive strikes,” but unfortunately their time ran out eight hours into the shoot. After the end“Please do the second time.”Next to Fujiwara bowing his head, Nagao said,“Part 2 is fine, but…I want to go fishing.”I begged.
Naniwa Danshi and Ae! group reunited as “graduates” in the studio.“I remember this costume!”(Fujiwara),“As I have grown taller, the hem has become shorter.”(Naniwa Danshi, Shunsuke Michieda) and everyone is feeling nostalgic. The program will be enlivened by Keisuke Okada, who was promoted from “President of Naniwa Handsome Academy” and “President of Ae! Otokojuku” to “Chairman.”
Also, in the studio, Daigo Nishihata, Shunsuke Michieda, Kyohei Takahashi (all from Naniwa Danshi), Yoshinori Masakado (Ae! group), and Chairman Okada played “Russian Roulette Takoyaki” where one of the five types was extremely spicy. challenge. Chairman Okada teases Takahashi, saying, “I have to get Takahashi to eat this. He hasn’t said a word since the opening!” and Takahashi is in a state of dismay, but he manages to pull off a spicy response and recover the foreshadowing. The studio was filled with laughter, but when Takahashi was sweating and exclaiming, “It’s hot!”, Chairman Okada commented disapprovingly, “You’re so cool, dude!”
At the end of the program, the “red dot students” were announced, which was customary on regular broadcasts. Due to Chairman Okada’s arbitrary judgment and prejudice, the sentence is given to the “student who was least active.”
The shooting location for this punishment game is “Convey the charm from the sky! Kansai Love Love Skydiving”, which is named after “the sky”. Amidst the tension in the studio, Chairman Okada announced, “Kojima!” and Kojima exclaimed, “Why are you doing this?!” The reason why she was selected as a “red dot student” was announced, saying that her unique hairstyle on location was not messed with, but she seemed unconvinced from beginning to end.
Fujiwara accompanied Kojima to the location of the punishment game that was held later. However, due to bad weather once again, the attraction was changed to an experience-based attraction where you jump from the middle part of the tower of Osaka’s symbol Tsutenkaku (approximately 40 meters above ground).“So scary!”After 50 minutes of being scared, Kojima finally made up his mind.“The best in Kansai!”I shouted as I jumped down.
After finishing the Punishment Game location shoot, Kojima said, “I only went bungee jumping once on location when I was a regular, but it was the first time in a while that I felt a sense of accomplishment that you can only get from doing this. The feeling is greater than other jobs,” he commented.
“But it’s really tiring, so I don’t want to fly again. I think this will be my last bungee video (lol). If there’s another one, I’d like to go on location, but I don’t want to be chosen as a ‘red spot student,’ so I’m already in the studio.” Maybe it’s okay just to appear in the show,” he said honestly.
Regarding his feelings about being selected as a “red-spot student,” he said, “I’m not satisfied at all.Even though I worked hard on the bowling location, ate a lot of takoyaki, and showed my manliness, in the end, I was chosen based on my hairstyle.” Looks dissatisfied.
“At least it’s not me!” He continued, “Naniwa Danshi Nagao. It wasn’t used on air at all, but even during filming, he kept talking to me without worrying about the camera, and he looked at me and made funny faces.” I also came. A! When I played the group, Seimon and Richard played “Russian Roulette Takoyaki,” and for some reason they didn’t like it together with Mitchie (Michieda), Takahashi, and Nishihata-kun. I wasn’t happy about being mixed up with that member, and I was like, “If you’re in the Ae! group, just eat without any questions!” “That’s what I thought (lol).Richard spoke for a long time on the pretend VCR in the studio, but it was all cut out, so it’s a red point,” he said with venom.
Lastly, “After three and a half years, the two groups are back with their CD debut.Not only for those who watched it at the time, but also for those who don’t know us in the first place, this is a program where idols put their bodies on the line in the golden belt. I haven’t watched it much lately, so I think I’ll be able to enjoy it with a fresh feeling.From now on, the number of fans of the show and the number of people who support us will increase, and next time, I’d like to aim for the golden spot on the national network!”
“What do you know? I’ll make the wind blow! ~Delivering the charms of Kansai from land, sea, and air~” is available for viewing on Kantele Doga/TVer until December 13th at 23:59. The missed broadcast also includes unreleased footage, including the “Aim for 4 consecutive strikes!
