Masahiro Nakai’s “I can continue my entertainment activities without hindrance” “unreasonable” comment may be aimed at “avoiding penalty fees” in excess of 100 million yen.

He will be able to continue his entertainment activities without hindrance.

Masahiro Nakai may soon announce his retirement……

That is what the media has been warning about for the past few days. However, Nakai’s statement released on January 9 was the exact opposite.

Nakai, who was reported to be in trouble with Xko, a member of the entertainment industry, referred to the disturbance on his official website, “Nobirinakai. The comment, titled “Apology,” reads,

《Till now, I have refrained from speaking out due to confidentiality obligations associated with the resolution with the other party. I would like to tell you as much as I can, as there have been many things that have caused difficulties for me in my own activities. It is a fact that there was a problem. It is also a fact that we have reached a settlement through the representatives of both parties and that the matter has been resolved.

He admitted that he had a problem with a woman.

According to a series of reports, sexual trouble occurred between Nakai and Xko in June of the year before last, and they settled the matter by paying 90 million yen as a settlement.

Nakai said

Nakai said, “In this trouble, I did not have any power to raise my hand or anything like that, as some reports have suggested. The settlement has been reached, and I will be able to continue my future entertainment activities without any hindrance.

He concluded by emphasizing that

I am responsible for all of this trouble. I have to deal with the other party in this matter. I sincerely ask you not to speculate, slander, or defame me in any way regarding this matter.

The company is not responsible for the penalty, which is estimated to be as much as 1 billion yen.

The text alone indicates a willingness to “continue performing” rather than retire. In particular, the sentence “I will be able to continue my entertainment activities without hindrance.

What? What does that mean?

It is not Nakai who decides that.

Nakai’s TV and radio appearances are now on six different programs, including “The TV and radio show.

Nakai’s six regular TV and radio programs and two commercials have been replaced or suspended. In response to this statement

“Yes, I understand. Let’s revive the program.

It is hard to believe that they will say, “Okay, let’s resurrect the program.

Did you report the trouble to the station or the client?

As for Nakai’s “unreasonable” comment, a source at a TV station said

“It may have been an attempt to avoid the penalty.

Nakai’s “unreasonable” comment, a TV station insider pointed out.

He emphasized that he had a period of trouble with women, but both parties agreed on a “settlement. By stating that he would be able to continue his entertainment activities without hindrance, he was saying that he would not be able to do regular TV shows from here on out.

He then stated, “From this point on, even if regular programs are terminated, it will be for the convenience of the station and not because of the trouble. This would certainly make it difficult for the station to claim penalties or damages from Mr. Nakai.

(A person involved with the TV station also said this.) In fact, Nakai’s attitude has been clear.

In fact, Nakai has not made his attitude clear to this point. According to another TV station official, “After the trouble was reported in the middle of last month

“After the trouble was reported in the middle of last month, the station assessed the situation and replaced the program or cut it entirely in editing. The staff working at the site complained that Mr. Nakai did not express his attitude and said, ‘I don’t know what to do now.

The staff members who worked on the show were often heard to complain that Mr. Nakai did not express his attitude toward them.

If he retired for his own reasons or requested to leave the show, he would have to pay for the damage caused by his retirement. For those in the Nakai class, it would be in the hundreds of millions of yen.

If the Nakai class retired, it would be in the hundreds of millions of yen, and if commercials were included, it could be close to one billion yen,” said a source at an advertising agency.

(A person related to an advertising agency).

The statement may be a strategy to avoid such “penalty hell,” but on the other hand, some people involved in the entertainment industry have commented, “When you have trouble with a woman, you are not allowed to go to the bureau.

On the other hand, some people involved in the entertainment industry asked, “Did he report his troubles with women to the station or his clients at the time he had them? Even if he was able to settle out of court, if he neglected his duty to report it, it seems to me that Nakai-san was at fault.

Some people have also commented that “the environment surrounding Nakai has changed.

The environment surrounding Nakai remains harsh.
