Katsuyuki Konishi, Kensho Ono, and Natsuki Hanae Have the Audience in Stitches with Caricatures and Impressions of Their “Close Voice Actor Friends”! Self-Proclaimed “Friendless Voice Actor” Konishi Perfectly Mimics His Close Friend!?

■Self-Proclaimed "Friendless Voice Actor" Katsuyuki Konishi Perfectly Mimics That Close Friend!? Going Wild for the “Snacks” Segment!

The public live broadcast began with the audience’s shout of “Let’s play at night!” The MCs and Katsuyuki Konishi boosted the excitement in the venue with their lighthearted banter. During the episode, the collaborative project with Tohato, “Wacky Snack Portraits Finally Talk!” was held. With Konishi professing his strong “love for snacks”, claiming, “I eat snacks every day,” and “I have snacks for breakfast,” the segment consisted of making “snack caricatures” of close voice actor friends and then dubbing lines those people might say. Konishi poked fun at himself, saying, “Close voice actor friends!? I’m a friendless voice actor. I might get yelled at for making faces of people at random (laughs),” eliciting laughter from the audience.

When the caricature making began, the three couldn't stop themselves from “sneaking bites,” enjoying the snacks rather than focusing on making their portraits. Comments like “We’re just eating and not getting anywhere!”, “I’ve finished my plate!”, and “It feels like I’m a kid again!” kept the mood lively and cheerful in the venue.

When the caricatures were completed, Konishi unveiled a snack portrait modeled after Masaya Onosaka, and gave a spot-on impression with the line, “Konishi-kun, Konishi-kun, wanna play games tonight? Are you free?” Hanae drew Takuya Eguchi, while Ono made a portrait of Hanae; each then performed an impression of the person, filling the venue with laughter. Viewer comments poured in, such as, “That’s so accurate lol”, “Looks just like them lol”, and “This isn’t voice acting anymore, it’s just a full-on impression!”

Furthermore, in the “What Are the MCs Making? Quick Guess Battle!”, the audience tried to guess what the MCs had drawn, and those who guessed correctly were treated to a whispered message from the artist through a dummy head mic, providing the kind of “ear-pleasing fan service” unique to a live public recording.

Additionally, there was a reward corner where the three tried out recipes using Tohato snacks that they thought “I want to eat that!” while incorporating skits and sharing impressions like, “This is real cooking!”, “I wanna drink beer with this,” and “Delicious!” Their enjoyment of the creative snack recipes sent the energy in the venue even higher.
