The new program, “Extreme Programs You Can Never Do on TV,” was launched on DMMTV on April 12, and has been attracting a great deal of attention.

Watabe, “the first MC” since the riots.

Is he an MC, or should we call him a “victim”? Un-jash Watabe will be the main guest on the program. This will be his first “crown program” since his self-restraint over the affair was lifted, but the world is not so easy.

The show, titled “WATABET – That’s mine, right? ~This is a documentary variety show (……) in which a junior comedian from the same office as Watanabe, named Morozumi Naoya (708 Morozumi), is entrusted with 1 million yen and observed to see how much he can increase the amount of money over a period of 3 months by playing poker, It was Watabe who provided the original 1,000,000 yen.

Furthermore, Ryokaku is a complete beginner at poker. It seems insane to entrust one million yen to such a man, but taking advantage of the characteristic of poker that “the more you study, the more you win,” he entrusts everything to Ryokaku and bets on his growth as a player. ……

Will Watabe’s one million yen melt away, or will Ryokaku gradually hone his skills as a player and finally increase his original amount, even as Watabe’s pocket money melts away? This is a program that can be enjoyed from two angles.

The show offers a look into the deep world of poker and echoes with Watabe’s witty comments from the depths of his heart.

Will Watabe win the “bet” and pave the way for his comeback? Or will the one million yen just become a “toy” for his junior colleagues? How about enjoying this documentary variety show with a new sensation?
