Restart! Reiwa Roman and Kuruma Takahira directly interviewed! What will be your relationship with Yoshimoto?

Thank you” to the reporter.

The situation of “Reiwa Roman” Takahira Kuruma (30), who won the “M-1” championship for the first time in history but whose management contract with Yoshimoto Kogyo has been terminated, has been the focus of attention.

He was interviewed by the Metropolitan Police Department on suspicion of having used online casinos in the past and had been refraining from entertainment activities since February; he resumed his activities at the end of April, but left his partner, Kemuri Matsui (31), at Yoshimoto and started over as a freelancer.

On May 17, Kuruma’s “X” contribution was featured on “The Second” (Fuji TV), marking his unexpected return to terrestrial broadcasting. A staff member in charge of variety programs at a key station said, “Kuruma has been appearing on the show for a long time.

Kuruma has been very selective about the programs he appears in, but we have heard that he plans to actively appear on TV from now on.

The day after “THE SECOND,” Kuruma appeared as a guest on a program distributed by Yoshimoto’s senior company, “New York. Although the program was delivered from Yoshimoto’s headquarters, he appeared with a guest pass and got a lot of laughs.

After the delivery, we directly interviewed Kuruma, who had just finished a launch with Kazuya Shimasa (39) at a small bar with only about five seats near Yoshimoto’s headquarters.

–What is your future relationship with Yoshimoto?

Sorry, thank you.”

With that, Kuruma got into a taxi–which is complicated (laughs), but from the look on his face, he seems to be in good spirits.

The genius comedian is sure to turn this predicament into a laugh.
