<h2> Considering filing a complaint to the BPO for &#8220;biased reporting.</h2>
 The year 2013 is likely to bring a &#8220;tectonic shift&#8221; in the world of comedy.
 In response to an interview by entertainment reporter Masao Nakanishi, &#8220;Downtown&#8221; star Hitoshi Matsumoto (61), who has been on hiatus, announced his intention to resume his activities by launching his own platform, &#8220;Downtown Channel (tentative),&#8221; in the spring of next year.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 In an article distributed on Yahoo Japan on December 25, Matsumoto revealed that he would create a &#8220;new space&#8221; operated by paying members who want to see Matsumoto&#8217;s comedy, rather than TV, radio, or other media that cannot work without the approval of sponsors. Matsumoto will be joined by his partner Masanori Hamada (61) for the first time.
 Matsumoto said, &#8220;I think this will be the first place to see Hitoshi Matsumoto perform comedy.
 A reporter in charge of entertainment at a sports newspaper said. A reporter in charge of entertainment for a sports newspaper said, &#8220;It has been about a year since the Bunshun bombardment last year.
 I think he made his announcement at this time in consideration of the M-1 event, which ended on March 22.
 Yoshimoto Kogyo, the company to which he belongs, operates &#8220;FANY,&#8221; a service that sells live tickets and distributes them online, with more than 4.6 million members. This know-how could lead to big business.
 Matsumoto&#8217;s image has been tarnished, in no small part, by the series of Bunshun reports, and the company will be providing him with a &#8220;place to come back&#8221; from the ground up.
 After all, Matsumoto is indispensable to Yoshimoto,&#8221; said a person involved in the comedy industry.
 This must mean that &#8220;Mr. Matsumoto is indispensable to Yoshimoto&#8221; (a person involved in the comedy industry).
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 In the interview, Matsumoto also revealed his honest feelings about television.
 I don&#8217;t mean to sound like a word-hunter, but there is a narrowing of the range of what is possible.
 If I say something, I get flamed for it.
 During his hiatus, Matsumoto must have been watching a lot of TV, because he said of the lawsuit&#8217;s withdrawal, &#8220;It&#8217;s not really that deep on the news.
 I have the impression that it is not mentioned in depth on TV shows, etc. &#8230;&#8230;
 I have the impression that the lawsuit has not been mentioned much in depth on the wide-open TV shows, etc.,&#8221; he said sarcastically, and he must have meant it. A reporter from a sports newspaper said.
 I was surprised to hear that he was concerned about it. There was a report in some media outlets that declared the content of NTV&#8217;s &#8220;Miyaneya&#8221; to be &#8220;biased reporting&#8221; and filed a complaint with the BPO, and it turned out that he had a similar feeling.
 The new &#8220;space&#8221; where the charismatic figure of Hitoshi Matsumoto reigns will become a powerful magnetic field and attract many people. The number of paying subscribers is unimaginable, but it is sure to generate tremendous maximum wind speed.

<h2>M-1 Grand Prix ends with a bang despite Matsumoto&#8217;s absence</h2>
 On the other hand
 The M-1 Grand Prix, on the other hand, was a great success despite Matsumoto&#8217;s absence. It&#8217;s like a person who was the king of a big country becoming the lord of a small one&#8221; (broadcaster).
 (broadcaster).
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 Unexpectedly, the comedy world has undergone a dramatic change in metabolism over the past year. Chidori, Kamaitachi, Chocolate Planet, and Diane have emerged as replacements for Matsumoto. In Matsumoto&#8217;s absence, Reiwa Roman won back-to-back M-1 championships for the first time in history.
 I wondered what would happen without Matsumoto, but M-1 ended with a great success. In terms of the &#8220;cohesiveness&#8221; of the program, this year was probably the best. The excitement at the venue was incredible. Seeing that, I honestly thought, &#8216;There may not be a seat for Matsumoto-san anymore.
 The amazing thing about Yoshimoto is that new talents sprout one after another, including the runner-up &#8220;Batteries. There was also &#8220;heretic&#8221; SHIMOFURI MYOJO&#8217;s Koshina (31).
 On his YouTube page, he praised Reiwa Roman&#8217;s consecutive championships and said, &#8220;I have high expectations for him.
 I have high expectations for him. I have high expectations for the future of the comedy world.
 &#8220;I wonder if he&#8217;s going to make a big surge in the comedy world.
 He also said, &#8220;I&#8217;m very excited about the future of the comedy world.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 I heard that people in the comedy industry have an intuition that &#8216;the era of Reiwa Romain and Rohan will come from now on&#8217; when they saw the results of M-1. I&#8217;m not saying it will be soon, but it will certainly become that trend.
 The blank period of more than a year is a big handicap for Matsumoto. Will he be able to show his will to Reiwa Romain and Sakarina, who are both making their mark on the stage?

 Downtown's Hitoshi Matsumoto has announced that he will return next spring. However, the world of comedy has changed drastically in the year without the "king", with the M-1 winning again and "Reiwa Roman" at the top of the list, and "SHIMOFURI MYOJO"'s "Kohin", etc. ......

The comedy world has changed drastically in a year&#8230; Reiwa Roman and Shimobori Sakuhin shine in the &#8220;new era&#8221; and Hitoshi Matsumoto shows his &#8220;willpower&#8221; in his return to the comedy world.

The comedy world has changed drastically in a year… Reiwa Roman and Shimobori Sakuhin shine in the “new era” and Hitoshi Matsumoto shows his “willpower” in his return to the comedy world.
