Birthday Special Event... but Natsuki Hanae Faces a Tormenting Festival!? Grueling Missions for Gifts!

In the opening, Kensho Ono congratulated Hanae, who appeared wearing sunglasses and a sash labeled "Today's Star." The program gifted Hanae a wine from his birth year as a "serious present," and the birthday special began with a toast.

Following this, the Ono-Hanae duo's favorite "Ramen Jiro" made an appearance. However, Ono suddenly stood up and remarked, "Don't get too comfortable. Don't think you can just get anything served to you," initiating the program's segments.

Subsequently, Hanae participated in the "Jiro Toppings Battle! Two-Choice Challenge," where he had to guess correctly in a series of two-choice quizzes like "Which is the sour juice?" and "Which is the electric chair?" to earn toppings. The chosen answer had to be actually experienced. Hanae had to re-experience past challenges like the "super sour juice" and "electric chair," showing a perplexed expression by saying, "It's complicated." Nevertheless, the studio was filled with laughter as Hanae took on the challenge head-on for his favorite "Ramen Jiro."
