■Maki Yokota talks about her mother Yuko Anai’s surprising behavior!
Yokota Mako, the daughter of professional golfer Yokota Shinichi and talent Anai Yuko, confessed her troubles that her mother comes to school even on days other than school visits and parent-child conferences. When Hamada asked her, “What does she come to school for?” she revealed a surprising episode, saying, “She disguises herself and watches classes. She even came with me on the school trip by car. She stayed at a nearby inn.”
■Maekawa Kiyoshi’s son, Hiroki, asks, “What if your son appeared on a program featuring second-generation talent?” Hamada’s answer caused a stir in the studio!
Hiroki Maekawa, the son of Kiyoshi Maekawa, who is also friends with Masatoshi Hamada of Downtown, asked, “What do you think if Hamada’s son (Hama Okamoto) appeared on a program for “second generation talents”?” Hamada responded, “No, I don’t think anything of it.” When Hiroki pursued, “Do you think you wouldn’t mind being teased?”, Hamada replied, “If you can tease me, please do so,” to which the people around him retorted, “That’s intimidation!” In the midst of all this, Hamada said, “I’d be happy if they teased me in a funny way. That’s all. I’m happy if they make it into a comedy,” showing his fatherly side despite being a comedian.
■ Shinnosuke Kimoto reveals his father Hideki Saijo’s strange obsessions and his behavior at home
When asked by Hamada, “Did Saijo Hideki have any particular preferences?”, Kimoto Shinnosuke, the son of Saijo Hideki, confessed, “When I was a child, I was rummaging through my father’s bag and found about three wallets with large amounts of money in them. When I asked my mother why, I found out that my father didn’t trust banks.” When Hamada asked, “What was Saijo Hideki like at home?”, Kimoto replied, “He was just an ordinary person,” and revealed that during family dinners, no one reacted even when his father was on TV.
■Shigeru Matsuzaki’s son, Yuki Matsutani, reveals that “my father is always in the tanning booth.” He also reveals his special home!
When Hamada asked Matsutani Yuki, “Did Shigeru Matsuzaki have any particular preferences?”, he immediately replied, “Suntan, of course.” He listed his father Shigeru Matsuzaki’s particular preferences, such as never using sunscreen and always being in the sun even when waiting at traffic lights. Upon learning of his particular preferences, Hamada was impressed, saying, “He’s so thorough.” In the video, he showed Matsutani’s home, and also introduced Shigeru Matsuzaki’s particular piano and tanning machine.
■Niiyama Chiharu’s unusual obsession! Her love for her daughter, Niiyama Moa, is incredible!
Niyama Moa reveals how much of a doting parent Niyama Chiharu is. “It’s normal for her to send me 50 LINE messages every day. She calls whenever she has free time. She has collected about 500 items that are keepsakes from my childhood…” she says with a wry smile. In the video, Niyama Chiharu herself introduces her collection of her beloved daughter. She shows off her collection of the first haircut, the first tooth that fell out, the first booger, and earwax.
■8iper Okada Ryunosuke can’t appear with his father Okada Keisuke!? Is it Hamada’s fault that his father was found out?
Keisuke Okada’s son Ryunosuke Okada (8iper) reveals his father’s surprising true nature. “He completely separates work and private life. The public image is that he is loud and cheerful, but at home he is quiet and cool!” he says. Ryunosuke Okada also confesses, “I don’t know if I should say this, but… I don’t want to appear on the show with my father!” “When my sister and I aspired to be in the entertainment industry, my father told me, ‘Don’t use my name at all.’ However, one day, when I was watching my sister’s first appearance on ‘Downtown DX,’ Hamada said, ‘You’re Okada’s daughter, aren’t you?’ And that’s how it became known to the world!” he complains to Hamada.
■Kin-chan of Onikoshi Tomahawk’s father is an enka singer! A surprising statement to Takashi Hosokawa!?
Kin-chan of Onikoshi Tomahawk criticizes his father, KIN-CHAN, an unpopular enka singer. “My father is not popular, but he has a long career in the entertainment industry, so he has a lot of pride!” he says angrily. His partner Ryota Sakai agrees, revealing, “The other day when we appeared on a music program together, Takashi Hosokawa was there. I asked him, ‘Dad, do you not have to go and greet him?’ and he said, ‘Well, I looked it up and it turns out he’s a little bit younger than you. He’s the one who’s coming.'”
