Additionally, a proposal for "Ono & Hanae's Small Asobi," which was well-received last season for releasing small tricks, saw the two voice actors, pros at breath control, challenge the "Blow Away Challenge." In this game, where blowing on a cup stacked with playing cards and losing if the last card falls off requires delicate breath control.

The penalty game was "extremely sour juice," which left both of them in agony last week. Reflecting on last week's broadcast during the opening, Ono protested, saying, "Does it really need to be this sour!? If it's somewhat sour, we can still react!" But in the subsequent game, Ono made a terrible mistake by dropping all the cards in his second turn. Determined, he chugged the extremely sour juice, but it was so sour he couldn’t speak, agonizingly admitting, "Ah...! Sour..." and saying, "It's been two weeks in a row now! This week is spicy and sour; my senses are off!" The studio burst into laughter once again at Ono's plight.

Additionally, in the show, a "Sugoroku Talk" was held, where themes written on stopped squares were discussed, revealing Hanae's feelings toward former partner Daisuke Namikawa.

Stopping on the square that read "Daisuke Namikawa," Hanae talked about meeting Namikawa. He shared that they originally were senior and junior at the same agency, adding, "When I joined the agency and went to record my first voice sample, Mr. Namikawa was in the studio before and after me, listening to my recording. After it ended, he complimented one of the samples saying, 'It was good!' making me think he was a really nice person." Hanae also shared gratitude for his early career, saying, "When I was worrying about doing various roles like adult roles or villain roles, Mr. Namikawa said, 'Hanae-kun, you're still young and pure, so cultivate the weapon you can handle best and fight with. Then naturally, you'll be able to do other things too!'" Kensho Ono, deeply moved, exclaimed, "Wow, that's such great advice! What a great senior!"

However, when Ono said, "Then we have Mr. Namikawa to thank for the current Hana-chan!" Hanae responded, "Well, not necessarily (laughs)! My own efforts might have a part in it," skillfully attributing the punchline to Namikawa, causing the studio to explode with laughter. Demonstrating their unchanged teasing dynamic, Hanae displayed the close relationship akin to siblings with Namikawa.
