On ABEMA, from 10 pm to 11:30 pm on February 28, 2025 (Friday), "Say You To Yo Asobi: Friday【Tomokazu Seki×Nobuhiko Okamoto】#35" was broadcasted.

So far, the show has taken on various challenges with luxurious location shootings, and this time, they finally won the chance for a luxurious French location shoot. In this broadcast, they celebrated the decision for the French location shoot with "Let's Learn About France!"

They welcomed a French actor, Roba, and learned about the unknown realities of France and manners at French restaurants that Japanese people don't know. In addition, a "Japan VS France! Facial Acting Battle!" where the three actors compete with their acting skills was also held.

Tomokazu Seki & Nobuhiko Okamoto Play with French Actor, Roba!

In preparation for the grand French location shoot, the broadcast carried out a program called "Celebrate! Decision for French Location Shoot! Let's Learn About France~!" to learn about French history and culture and enjoy French cuisine more deliciously. The guest lecturer was Roba, a French actor active in France and currently working in Japan.

Right off the bat, he shared his reasons for coming to Japan and what he loves about it. Roba, who says he fell in love with the way Japan maintains and values its culture and traditions, was met with a joke from Seki, saying "Well, we do have our swords at our sides all the time, don't we?" as they engaged in a lively conversation.

Furthermore, due to the significant differences between the image Japanese people have of France and the reality, they also had a segment titled "Introducing the Unknown Real France to Japanese People!" Roba revealed things like "French people don't eat French food! The typical meal is surprisingly simple", "Drinking during work hours is OK if it's break time! (Depending on the industry)", and "There are no convenience stores in France". In the "In the country of love, France, there are no confessions!" segment, Roba candidly shared French views on love, causing a great uproar in the studio.

At the unknown real France, the two were constantly exclaiming "What!? Really!? Is that so!?" in surprise.

Moreover, they discussed that "French people are not fashionable at all!" and revealed that many men in particular are indifferent to fashion as well as skincare and hairstyles. In this scene, Seki said with a laugh, "But everyone looks cool! Look at the difference in the depth of their features. They look cool even if they wear whatever, but if we wear whatever, we're in trouble." He added, seeming envious, "It's because their original specs are high! They don't need to do anything! Isn't it cool to be casual?" At this, Roba blushed deeply.

Okamoto also agreed with Seki, saying "That's right!" and responded, inducing laughter, "That's why the only person who is allowed in the voice acting industry is Tsuda Ken."
