Taku Yashiro Retorts to the Voice Actor Urban Legends Made up by Hiroki Yasumoto! A 90-minute Free Talk SP Answering Any Questions from the Viewers Begins

On the "Anime LIVE Channel" of ABEMA, Say You To Yo Asobi Monday【Hiroki Yasumoto×Taku Yashiro】#35" was broadcasted from 10pm on February 24th (Monday/Holiday).

In the broadcast, not from the usual studio but from a "meeting room", the "First Free Talk SP of Yasumoto and Yashiro Answering Viewers' Questions" was delivered. Yasumoto and Yashiro answered questions from the viewers such as "What job would you like to try other than being a voice actor?", "What are the details of your smartphone wallpaper?", "What would you like to do if you could switch places with your partner for a day?", and so on, and they had a full 90-minute talk.

"Hiroki Yasumoto admits he's spreading lies!" He confesses to making up voice actor urban legends!?

The live broadcast started unusually from the "meeting room" instead of the usual studio. This is because Ryuji, a culinary expert, is confirmed to appear as a guest on next week's show. To rent a kitchen studio for next week, they decided to "cut costs" for this week, and thus, they planned a 90-minute free talk segment titled "Answering Viewers' Questions! Yasumoto & Yashiro's First Free Talk Special."

The two hosts began addressing questions submitted by the viewers, such as "What should I make sure to do during my university life?", "I recently turned 30. What has changed from my 20s to my 30s?", and "If you weren't voice actors, what profession would you like to try?". Among them, there was also a question that gave a glimpse into their personal lives: "Do you have any particular preferences for your smartphone wallpaper?"

Yashiro, who prefers not to clutter his home and maintains a simple lifestyle, commented, "I always stick to the default settings," "I don't even have a case." On the other hand, Yasumoto replied, "I am Fumihiko Tachiki." To Yashiro's puzzled look, Yasumoto continued, "I've been spreading a lie that if you set Fumihiko Tachiki as your home screen, you can get everything except obesity." "But when I told everyone, they said, 'Fumihiko seems to bring good luck!' because he is really busy, and some people are actually doing it. I'm thinking of creating an urban legend (laughs)."

Yasumoto made up a voice actor urban legend, and Yashiro, while pointing out, "People are actually believing it," also remarked with a chuckle, "This is probably how urban legends are born," drawing laughter from the audience.

When asked, "What would you do if you could swap places with your partner for a day?" Yasumoto joked, "Taku-chan is known as a good person, so I'd want to do something that would make everyone worry! Like wearing a fishnet tank top and super short hot pants," to which Yashiro retorted, "You absolutely can't let Yasumoto-san inside me!"

Yashiro retorted, "If you're going to do that, I'll become Yasumoto-san and wear a fluffy gelato pique with cat ears!" Yasumoto shyly responded, "Please stop! Don't make me wear fluffy stuff~" and the studio was filled with laughter.

In addition, questions such as "What's the interaction between the two of you in private?" "What would you like for your last supper?" "What do you want to be in the next life?" popped up. In the question "Which country do you want to visit?", Yasumoto talked about a thrilling experience he had abroad when he was a junior high school student. In the question "What weapon do you always use in games?", the two got excited talking about their favorite game. They had a lively and friendly talk for 90 minutes.
