■His crotch, wrinkles between his eyebrows, lines in a low voice… A never-before-seen figure, full of charm!
It’s been nine years since the release of the unique political comedy “Minou” (original work by Jun Ikeido), which depicts the life of Prime Minister Muto Taizan, whose personality has switched with his college student son.
In this drama, which has been restarted as “Tamiouar”, Taizan Muto, played by Kenichi Endo, is once again faced with a situation where he is replaced. What’s more, this time, the “replacement target” is all citizens! In this work, a bizarre story unfolds in which the Prime Minister is randomly replaced with a member of the public in each episode.
Who will be the replacement partner in the first episode broadcast on October 22nd? This work had been the subject of various speculations even before it aired. The other person was unexpectedly “that”!
Taizan, played by Kenichi Endo, has a unique way of speaking and facial expressions, and there are many scenes in the first episode that make you think, “This is the ‘Minou!”’. On the other hand, Anon’s crotch legs, wrinkles between his eyebrows, and lines in a low voice were completely new to him, and he was full of charm, and he immediately captivated the audience.
Also, at the end of the movie, Taizan’s new public secretary, Yuka, and what the replaced Taizan said at the press conference had something in common with today’s Japan, and some people were moved by it. I think it made many people think.
Despite the ups and downs, Taizan somehow managed to win the presidential election and eventually assumed the position of Prime Minister. However, the target of this change is “all citizens,” and the next change will occur in the face of an unprecedented situation! In the second episode, which aired on October 29th, the Prime Minister was replaced with an unknown murderer (Ryosuke Soda). What is the fate of Prime Minister Taizan Muto?
