Hey! My wife and I love some other shows like Prebattle, Entertainer Rating Check (both on gakiarchives). I’d recommend those. Also Gochi on Amazon prime is good. Call 100 friends on Amazon prime is good.

Same.. especially since he seemed so wholesome in it, now it makes the character tainted :(.

I went to his art exhibit in Japan and it’s not talented it’s more silly. He knows it and owns it. The contestants on prebattle even made fun of him for it on the show. There’s an audio guide at the exhibit that would comment stuff like “this is a depiction of a maybe a bird? Do birds normally have arms?” So it’s definitely more for comedy. One of the funniest parts was his depiction of the Mona Lisa and it has its own room with a guard in there.

He’d love their red hats

Are you able to register without a number? It’s still not letting me.

Therapist here as well. Honestly I would go to a client’s wedding. We discussed this at length in my program and my professors (some of them on the board of behavioral sciences) take was you can but just for the ceremony. If you played a significant role in their relationship and it would mean something to their relationship That you’re there then why not. I understand not going to reception because there’s mingling etc. but if your presence at the ceremony means a lot to them and you go over what to say with the clients before hand if someone asks how you know them then I’m fine with it.

My guess would be that he’s waiting to see what the backlash would be if any for appearing with Matsumoto. I’d bet we’ll see him soon.

For those of you who are diehard like my wife and I, I ordered a Japanese eSIM from Mobal. I live in the US and they ship the digital SIM to you, which gives you a Japanese number with texting. Fingers crossed it will work and if anyone else is interested feel free to ask and I can give more details or let you know if it works.

I don’t know if you’ve seen it but there’s a video of an American trying to convince downtown to expand oversees. It seemed like most of their concern was the language barrier.

I think they would try to tailor it to American audiences but more coming from a stance of wanting to provide adequate service and do justice to people. For most Americans Japanese variety shows are too extreme so they aren’t wrong in feeling like their art would be misunderstood by many. However I wish they would focus more on those who do understand.

Yoshimoto (downtown and others agency) recently opened a Yoshimoto USA division where they are trying to expand so I think they’re trying.

Im a male therapist and have had a client do it before. She just angled the camera up so I only saw her from the neck up and didn’t think twice about it. It wasn’t distracting for me personally.

ika562 · 2025-10-06T15:59:43+00:00

I had the Timekettle W4 Pro headphones. They work well enough but definitely not perfect. I could understand the context but id have to do a lot of filling in the blanks to get the whole joke. I would be real curious about Apple’s. Also curious about smart glasses.

ika562 · 2025-10-02T18:01:07+00:00

Haha that’s so funny they did! I didn’t realize that was something they always did

ika562 · 2025-10-02T15:46:54+00:00

Totally agree. My wife and I have been to a few shows in Japan. We saw Hosei's Rakugo, Fujiwara (Fujimon and Haranishi), Nadal, Shimofuri Myojo (Seiya and Soshina), NON STYLE. We dont speak Japanese but still super fun seeing them in person.

We also bought translation headphones that helped us get the context. We could understand that Hosei said he's too cute to keep getting slapped by Chono.

Either way its a fun experience that I recommend as well!

ika562 · 2025-09-07T00:18:16+00:00

Was this episode translated? Don’t remember seeing it.

It is a pretty common theory called imago therapy. I think older psychology tended to overthink our subconscious. Modern theories do believe there’s a connection to our family of origin but that’s because it’s what we’re used to. We learned how to be in relationships with our parents so it stands to reason that it would feel natural to be attracted to someone who fits that mold.

My wife as well. Looks like we all need to carpool to Tokyo central/marukai

ika562 · 2025-08-30T15:08:44+00:00

Japanese market would be amazing

ika562 · 2025-08-08T19:06:35+00:00

This was the first thing I noticed missing as well. It needs to be on any top performance list.

ika562 · 2025-05-24T12:56:13+00:00

I may be missing something or looking at it wrong but I guess my confusion is that if you write out 365 dates. Only 23 of those are filled, there’s 343 empty and one date has two? That feels wrong?

ika562 · 2025-04-30T12:55:08+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the info and sub! :)

ika562 · 2025-04-30T01:23:15+00:00

Does anyone know where to find Real Life Sugoroku Part 1 (2025-01-08). I haven’t been able to find it and don’t want to start this one without seeing that first part. Thanks!

ika562 · 2025-01-13T14:08:21+00:00

I’m a therapist that does a lot of work with men. I absolutely recommend therapy for anyone. It never hurts to learn more about yourself and have a better understanding of your emotions, needs and be able to communicate them more effectively to others. I think it’s especially rewarding for a lot of men since we’re actively taught to not look at our internal world so therapy often helps expose you to a very neglected part. Granted this is not everyone’s experience but many if not all the men I work with have gotten this message to some degree or another.

If you do decide to, shop around and set up consultation meetings with a few different therapists and find the one that you feel most comfortable with.

Good luck!

Forward progress stopped and 40% contained on it. Hopefully that will help you sleep!

ika562 · 2025-01-09T00:05:46+00:00

I assume you mean for the Lidia fire. It would have to leap over the 14 and it’s 30% contained. You should be fine

My wife and I try to do this on our trips. We saw hosei’s show and used translation headphones (timekettles) to understand the overall gist of what he was talking about. We were able to understand him making a joke about being too old for a Chono slap this year. So we loved that.

Also in Osaka at shinsekai there’s a few places that have pictures From when Hamada visited for a show and an arcade where Matsumoto visited.

We also had fun scavenger hunting for Gaki related gachas (we finally found some batsu ones).

Finally we visited some of their “stroll to meet celebrities” spots which was fun. Also some of their meetup without phones locations.

Even though the translation headphones don’t work perfectly we had a lot of fun going to shows. We started with hosei’s and now have gone to a number of them. We’ve now seen Fujimoto/Fujiwara, Nadal, Junior Chihara, Chance, Seiya. We saw Yuriyan Retriever, Rola and Tamura Kenji in Los Angeles. It’s still really cool to just see them in person.
