 Anjush Watabe Ken (50) and his wife Sasaki Nozomi (35) were under fire when &#8220;Josei Seven&#8221; reported that they had a big party with a group of about 10 people at a yakiniku restaurant in an upscale residential area in Tokyo in early June.
 The Watabe couple had their second child in April, and it was apparently a celebration. It seems that it was a gathering of friends of parents and mothers, and everyone was there with their small children, and the children were moving around, so it was very noisy.
 Sasaki&#8217;s presence with her two-month-old child in her arms was criticized on social networking sites. Also, Watanabe&#8217;s warning to the child, &#8220;Be nice to girls! was also teased, citing his past infidelity.

 (Sports newspaper reporter).
 &#8220;They say they are celebrating their second child, but they just want to make a fuss over a yakiniku restaurant where the infant can&#8217;t eat, right?
 Each family is entitled to its own opinion, but I honestly don&#8217;t understand the fuss at a yakiniku restaurant with an infant in tow.
 The pimp life has become a thing now, but it&#8217;s going to be even more difficult to get back on the air.
 Well, as a matter of fact, it&#8217;s no longer possible for him to appear on terrestrial TV.
 However, the following comments were more common this time.
 &#8220;Isn&#8217;t it normal for an izakaya or yakiniku restaurant?
 Nozomi Sasaki has given her permission, so there&#8217;s no need for the outside world to interfere.
 &#8220;We&#8217;re just having dinner as a family, but to be called out like this is just awful.
 I think it&#8217;s fine if they&#8217;re getting along fine now.
 It has been a year since he returned to show business on Chiba TV&#8217;s &#8220;B&amp;W Un-jash&#8221; last February. At the time, there were still mixed opinions about his return. Recently, however, the public&#8217;s reaction has become less harsh, probably because Watabe has been exposed more frequently in TV programs and on comedians&#8217; YouTube sites, and this has been well received by viewers.
 Watanabe&#8217;s appearance on &#8220;Chance no Jikan&#8221; (ABEMA) last November, in which he did his best to respond to Chidori&#8217;s reckless behavior, was well received, and he co-starred with Ariyoshi in &#8220;Mea Asist Ariyoshi&#8221; (Netflix), which began streaming in March.
 In June, Koji Higashino&#8217;s YouTube channel showed Daikichi Hakata in &#8220;&#8221;Ametalk! s gourmet food stories, the hole left by Watanabe-kun is huge,&#8221; and the two appealed for his return to the show. Thanks to the supportive fire from these comedians, their exposure has certainly increased.

 On June 17, Watabe appeared live on the radio program &#8220;Okashiba&#8221; (Bunka Hoso), hosted by Keiji Okada of Masuda Okada and Hidetsugu Shibata of Untouchable. In response to a listener&#8217;s question, &#8220;What news about recent entertainment scandals are you interested in? He answered a listener&#8217;s question, &#8220;Please don&#8217;t quote me anymore. I was the biggest prick in the history of entertainment, so I want you to cite me in other places besides Watabe. I have completely lost, so please do it somewhere else. Please do it somewhere else. Please put me in the Hall of Fame,&#8221; he replied, drawing laughter.
 I think it&#8217;s a good thing that he&#8217;s getting better at self-deprecation. Before the affair scandal, Watanabe was a comedian, but he was also a smart character who knew a lot about gourmet food and could also host the show. The gap between that and the contents of the &#8220;multipurpose toilet&#8221; scandal was too big, and it has dragged on to this point.
 However, the original Watabe was never such a character, and he had been teased about his bad character by Hiroyuki Ariyoshi, Canning Takeyama, and others in the past. In order to be accepted again on terrestrial television, I think it would be better to show more of his uncool side instead of his smart character.
 If he can avoid being reported for things like the yakiniku banquet, he may soon be able to return to terrestrial broadcasting. &#8230;&#8230;

 The social networking sites were filled with people who blamed Watabe, but there were also many who were sympathetic to him. With the support of his fellow comedians, will he be able to steadily make a comeback?

Ken Watabe, who has been in hot water again for a yakiniku banquet with his children, is his fellow comedians&#8217; &#8220;supportive fire&#8221; for his return to terrestrial broadcasting coming to naught?
