Akashiya Sanma’s aim in exposing the “crying accident” of Fuji’s Akiko Kuji

It is said that announcer Akiko Kuji, who will be leaving Fuji Television at the end of April, has “cried a lot”. It was revealed by Akashiya Sanma on MBS Radio’s “Young Town Saturday” broadcast late at night on February 5th, that the “incident” occurred during the “Comedy Improvement Committee” (Fuji Television Network), where she co-stars with Kuji. “The incident happened.

The comedy duo “Onikoshi Tomahawk” was standing by during the recording of the episode commemorating Anna Kuji’s graduation from the show. The comedy duo has gained popularity for their comedic style in which the person who intervenes in an argument gets verbally abused.

Anna Kuji was appointed as the mediator, but she stubbornly refused. She is said to have been half-heartedly coerced into taking part in the show, saying that it was a pattern of praise, not verbal abuse. However, Kuji’s words were unrelenting.

“Shut up! It won’t hurt a bit if you quit Fuji TV!

According to Mr. Sanma, the comment was meant as a “joke,” but after a while, the studio was filled with the sound of shocked Kuji crying.

Perhaps it was a comedian’s fate, but the other comedians, including Mr. Sanma, started to blab one after another. Tomonori Jinnai, who couldn’t stand to see it, stopped them.

I’m a man who’s been to hell and back for women’s tears.

Let me go to the heaven of laughter.

Let me go to the heaven of laughter. But Sanma replied, “I’m a man who has seen hell through women’s tears. She cried out again.

Sanma said on the radio

I really hope you can forgive me. To all my female fans, please forgive me.

He apologized flatly. The show is scheduled to air in late February, but Sanma predicted that “half of it will be cut.

Ms. Kuji joined Fuji in April 2005 as the “next ace” of the company. She had been active as a model and TV personality since her college days, and Fuji welcomed her with open arms.

In addition to reviving the “00 Pan” series as “Kujipan,” a program for potential ace announcers, she was selected as a sub-anchor for the popular morning information program “Mezamashi TV” in October of her first year. In April 2007, she was appointed as the main anchor of Mezamashi Saturday.

However, in March last year, it was not Kuji who was appointed as the main anchor of Mezamashi TV, but Seika Inoue, one year her junior.

Many people at the station thought that Kuji had fallen off the path to becoming the main anchor. The fact that Inoue was Kuji’s junior at university (Aoyama Gakuin) must have given her an extra shock.

(Fuji TV insider) It is said that the reason for her departure from the path of an ace announcer was simply her “aptitude” as an announcer. According to another Fuji TV insider

According to another Fuji TV insider, “Aside from the technical aspects such as reading a manuscript, what is necessary for a leading announcer is to have a quick mind. That’s all there is to it. Even if something unexpected happens, they must be able to deal with it calmly and maintain the atmosphere. In this respect, Anna Kuji sometimes became overwhelmed.

She said. The aforementioned “crying accident” is also a typical episode of Kuji.

I heard that she has already been approached by a major agency that has many female announcers. It is said that she is interested in modeling and acting as well, so even if she ends up being a disappointment as a station announcer, there is a good chance that she will blossom in another field.

Returning to the topic of Sanma’s “Comedy Improvement Committee,” it is highly possible that Sanma’s “half of the show will be cut. It is unusual for Sanma to talk so much about the contents of a program before it airs. The whole thing has already been on the Internet news.

The whole thing is already on the Internet news. In other words, if they really cut it, the viewers would know it, and since Mr. Sanma was able to get a really interesting picture, he might be appealing to them to air it by giving them a “cut notice.

If that were to happen, it could cause a firestorm, so by apologizing in advance, they may have lowered the bar for airing the episode. (Entertainment industry insider)

Sanma and Kuji have a strong relationship of trust, and this may be a “parting gift” for their “partner” who will be leaving for a new world in April.
