Fairouz Ai Returns to "Yo Asobi"! Yu Serizawa Declares "Seki-san is a Great Historical Figure" in a Guessing Game & Maria Naganawa Performs a Mysterious Dance

On Sunday, November 16th, "Say You To Yo Asobi Sunday [Yu Serizawa × Maria Naganawa] #24" was broadcast on ABEMA's "Anime LIVE Channel."

In this broadcast, voice actress Fairouz Ai, who appears in the TV anime "This Monster Wants to Eat Me" currently airing on ABEMA, appeared as a guest. In the first half of the show, Fairouz demonstrated moves that showed she understood the flow of Yo Asobi, but in the second half's dance game, things descended into chaos. It became a broadcast where Fairouz, who had previously served as the show's MC, received the "baptism of Yo Asobi" after a long absence.

In this broadcast, Fairouz Ai appeared as a guest. Fairouz, who served as the show's MC last year, was in high spirits, nostalgically saying "This totally feels like 'Yo Asobi,' so emotional!" Comments from viewers also poured in saying "We're also feeling emotional that Fai-chan has returned to Yo Asobi."

In the segment "Tell Us About the Anime 'This Monster Wants to Eat Me,'" they played a game based on the anime's content. The rules were that one person would draw a card with the name of a true identity written on it, and the other two would ask questions that could be answered with "Yes or No" to guess the true identity. They would formulate their questions and deduce the answer based only on the genre of the topic revealed in advance.

The first topic Fairouz drew was "Sakamoto Ryoma." Only the topic genre "person" was revealed to Serizawa and Naganawa, and the game quickly started. The two steadily narrowed down the possibilities with questions like "Is this person a great historical figure?" "Is this person male?" "Is this person famous?" Serizawa, thinking the name might include one of the Yo Asobi MCs, confidently answered "Seki(-san) (Tomokazu)" saying "Hey, I might know this one!", but was unfortunately incorrect. With a disgruntled expression, Serizawa exclaimed "Seki-san is a great historical figure!" and the studio erupted in laughter.

After that, Naganawa answered "Oda Nobunaga," narrowing it down to the realm of historical figures, and through exchanges like "Is this person chubby?" "No!", the two got considerably close to the correct answer. Finally, Fairouz struck a pose identical to Sakamoto Ryoma's famous statue with a gesture that was just within the rules, and Naganawa answered correctly with confidence.

Next was Serizawa, who drew the topic "Ramen." By answering "Yes" to the question "Is it Chinese?", Fairouz and Naganawa became fixated on Chinese cuisine and took a detour. With 40 seconds remaining, Fairouz reviewed the hints they had gathered so far together with Naganawa. Upon hearing "Yes" to Naganawa's question "Is it a staple food?", she suddenly made a sharp turn with "Ramen?" and correctly answered.
