Auditions by "Cassette Tape"!? Shimono & Irino Reveal "Heisei Era" Talk! New Segment Cleanses Viewer Frustration

■New Segment "Operation: Purify Everyone's Frustration" Launches... but The Staging Leaves Hiro Shimono & Miyu Irino Blushing!?

The latter half of the program introduced the new segment, "Operation: Purify Everyone's Frustration." The duo expressed gentle empathy for viewers' "minor, everyday annoyances," constantly agreeing with "I totally get it!" However, the "purification performance" designed to "turn frustration into sparkle" required them to stand in front of a green screen, look directly into the camera, deliver a decisive line: "I'll turn that frustration into sparkle for you," followed by a finger snap as the screen transitioned from a murky to a glittery background.

Irino shrieked, "This is so embarrassing! This is unbelievable!" and "To think this video will live on forever..." and "That's so LAME! That effect itself looks so Heisei!" Shimono responded with a wry smile, "I don't know. The viewers might have been purified, but I feel like something is building up inside us..." Comments poured in from viewers like "What is this LOL So great LOL," "??????????," "Not what I expected LOL," and "But, awesome lol," generating huge excitement.

Other segments included a planning session for the show's future now that they are at the halfway point of the season, and an upgraded version of the "Instant Expression! One-Character Theater" called "Free Expression! One-Character Theater NEO." The relaxed rules now permitted dialogue during the short skits. Scenarios such as "Ha" when a late junior walks in wearing earphones, or "Ha" when you spot an acquaintance cheating, led to more laughter in the studio thanks to the duo's comical improvisational acting.
