Keiko Tsubakihara, a retired Fuji TV announcer, and her good friend “Katopan” are whispering about “cooperation” in their return to TV after a two-year absence.

Tsubakihara Announcer is very sorry to report her resignation. ……

Keiko Tsubakihara, 39, who is leaving Fuji Television Network at the end of March, appeared on “Wide Nasho” on March 16. She mentioned her departure herself.

At the beginning of the program, MC Koji Higashino (57) said,

Ms. Tsubakihara is leaving Fuji Television on March 31, and two announcers, Ms. Tsubakihara and Ms. Yumi Nagashima (33), are retiring. This was decided long ago, wasn’t it?

Tsubakihara looked horrified when asked, “Yes, that’s right,

Yes, that’s right. I’m really sorry to have to tell you this at a time when it is so important to restore trust in Fuji Television, but I reported this to the company last November, and I’m sorry to have to tell you this.

He revealed that the decision had been made before December of last year, when two weekly magazines reported on Masahiro Nakai’s (52) trouble with a woman.

Tsubakihara had been in charge of many news programs since she first joined the company. She has also been the MC of “Weekly Fuji TV Review,” which received many harsh opinions from viewers after the “riot” broke out. Kyoko Sasaki (52) had long since disappeared, and her appearances on “Widener” had increased, making her an indispensable part of the current Fuji Television network. However, she has decided to leave the company to spend more time with her family.

On March 14, “Shukan Josei PRIME” reported that Tsubakihara has been a director of her husband’s company for the past three years. Her husband is the representative director of a long-established general facilities company that has been in business for over 110 years, and in ’14 he established a subsidiary company that engages in contracting for facilities work and real estate business. She was appointed director of that subsidiary. In that sense, there seems to be no need for her to start working as a freelance analyst right away” (staff member at a production company).

Tsubakihara, a native of Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture, went to junior high and high school at Kobayashi Seishin Joshi Gakuin and then to Sacred Heart University. All three have worked on many regular programs and have contributed greatly to Fuji Television, making them a rare pair.

What are the chances of Tsubakihara Anna and Katopan working together?

Kato married into the family of the sergeant of “Lopia,” a supermarket known for its extremely popular and inexpensive prices. Both married into prominent businessmen, and they received various advice from Tsubakihara, who is also their senior in child-rearing. In fact, even before they left Fuji Television, they were eager to study business outside of announcing, and it is highly likely that they will do something new together.

Kato will be the new MC of TV Tokyo’s variety show “Naze There? (Fuji Television). Live News It! Mihoko Yamada, a broadcaster who appeared on “Live News It!

She said, “After graduating from Fuji Television’s ‘Live News It! is a long time coming for Kato, who has been concentrating on supporting her husband and raising her children since her graduation from Fuji Television’s “Live News It! Such a move is sure to be a great stimulus for her good friend Tsubakihara. Tsubakihara will probably curtail her media work for the time being in order to prioritize time with her family, but there is a possibility that she will eventually return to television, following in the footsteps of Kato, who went freelance earlier and returned to television.

In addition, Enami will be working on the reborn “Suport! and the once-a-year special program “Sakaue Sando’s Tohoku Journey,” he is Fuji Television’s second best talent after Toshihiro Ito, 52, of “Mezamashi TV. He will also play the role of connecting Kato and Tsubakihara with their old colleagues.

With the presence of such a reliable synchronized announcer, it is likely that Tsubakihara will receive offers to appear as a celebrity mama announcer in the near future. From now on, Tsubakihara and Kato will be working together as a three-person team ……, and with the addition of Enami, they are sure to expand their field of activity.
