Joichiro Fujiwara of “Naniwa Danshi” is sure to be a semi-regular on “Tetsuwan DASH”…The reason why he is “flooded with offers from related parties” is understandable.
Although “Naniwa Danshi” debuted less than three years ago, Fujiwara joined the former Johnny’s office (now known as STARTO ENTERTAINMENT) in 2004, so he has been performing for 20 years. In his long career, he seems to have accumulated “training in comedy.
He has been a member of “Kansai Junior” (formerly Kansai Johnny’s Jr.) for 20 years, and has been a member of “A! group, Richard Keita Kusama (28) and Ryuta Muro (35) formed a manzai unit, and Fujiwara was in charge of making up stories. They performed their material for a variety show project with a manzai performer and were drilled in the fundamentals of laughter. He may have acquired his conversational tempo and word choice at that time,” said a source at a TV station.
Fujiwara has now grown up to appear on many popular TV programs. In addition to his comedy skills, Fujiwara’s personality is also highly regarded. An entertainment industry insider continues, “He has been working in the entertainment business since he was eight years old.
He has been working in the entertainment industry since he was eight years old, so he has a strong sense of hierarchy and courtesy. She remembers the faces and names of the staff with whom she has worked once. She remembers the faces and names of the staff with whom she has worked, and the next time she meets them, Fujiwara is often the first one to speak to them. Her cheerful personality and love of baseball make her popular with older male producers. Perhaps one of the reasons why he keeps getting offers is that he is a “gentleman killer” (laughs).
Will “Tetsuwan DASH” be the start of a “happy surprise” for Fujiwara on variety shows?
