Regarding the three episodes screened this time, Kusao revealed the reason for his selection: "Since Nishimura-san would be appearing with me, I selected stories where Shū of the Hardrock armor plays an active role!" Nishimura said, "Mukala of the Sun from Kikoutei Densetsu had a tremendous impact during the recording," and while reflecting on episodes from that time, the two reminisced together.

When asked about their memories of activities with NG5 (a unit formed in 1989 by the five voice actors who played the main characters in the anime "Legendary Armor Samurai Troopers"), Kusao and Nishimura shared episodes from events at the time, saying with a smile, "Our free and unrestricted style was our specialty."

Kusao called out to the audience, "What all five of us had in common was the feeling that 'we would do anything for the smiles of our customers.' I wonder if some of those who enjoyed it back then are here today?" The venue responded with loud applause.

To the MC's next question, "What kind of work is 'Legendary Armor Samurai Troopers' for you two?" Kusao expressed his passionate feelings for the work, saying, "I was able to have an experience that may or may not happen once in a lifetime, and it's a blessing as a voice actor. It's like a treasure of a work." Nishimura showed a smile, remembering the activities of that time, saying, "I have memories of appearing at many events."

Furthermore, at this point, the special advance video "SPECIAL FIRST LOOK VOL.2" of the TV anime "Yoroi Shin Den Samurai Troopers," which will air from January, was unveiled as a surprise to the audience for the first time. 38 years after the final battle, this is the special advance video of the new work that is the legitimate sequel.

After watching the video, Kusao said, "The previously released video had a Samurai Troopers-like atmosphere, but has it become a gag anime? What if the whole thing is gag!" Nishimura also said, "Does that mean there are gag-like parts...?" While surprised by the new aspect of the new work glimpsed from the PV, they were filled with anticipation.

Finally, Kusao greeted the audience, saying, "Thank you for the short time. I would be happy if you continue to support Samurai Troopers, and we want to appear in the 2026 new work too!" Nishimura expressed gratitude to the customers while also leaving a playful comment, "We approached it seriously! (laughs) Thank you!" The event concluded in a warm atmosphere filled with Samurai Troopers love.
