Fujiwara Fujimoto Toshifumi in a gay marching band.
"Tonight's Linkin' Up" is the second episode of the popular "Ururin Taito Station".
A week in which Fujiwara Fujimoto spends with gays.
Showtime!
What is the reason for Fujimoto's tears?
And the final episode of "Utemio" in Kansai dialect!
In awkward words, the battle for the title has come to an end!
It looks delicious!
Blink!
Three months ago, Banana Man Kimura visited a gyaru in Shibuya.
Why don't you remember?
I've never chosen a job since I was four years old.
A comedian who spent three years with girls in their 20s burned passion into Parapara.
It's Kimura's fault. He's crying.
Unexpectedly, the second generation of Urulin Taizaki, who caused a little impression, appeared.
This is a documentary project where comedians try to spend a week with people who are usually never mixed.
Shinjuku Nichome.
This is a secret garden where romance between men is born.
A comedian came to such a city.
This time, I'm going to stay with gay people in Nichome.
I don't know what gay people are doing, so I'm very anxious.
Gay people will take care of you for a week.
What kind of people are they?
What?
The performance has begun, but...
A pop star from Hirai Prefecture is being played.
Some people are dancing.
I don't think it's like that.
Excuse me!
Look at this!
Nice to meet you.
Are you gay?
Did you find out?
We are super gay!
"Super gay" is the second most popular word.
It doesn't have much meaning, but when you use it, you get excited.
Why do you have an instrument?
We usually play in a marching band.
What do you do in a marching band?
We play instruments and communicate.
A marching band is a band of people who play instruments and form groups.
A movie called "Drumline" based on a marching band is also released.
It's been a hot topic of discussion lately.
Let's see their skills.
What are you doing?
You're hitting my cranium.
What are you doing?
What is this?
This is a ritual.
What ritual?
Yes, it's a nude ritual.
Can you broadcast this?
I'm playing an instrument, why are you touching my cranium?
I want to play an instrument for you, but I also like your cranium.
I like your cranium.
Stop it!
Okamoto Shimono, it must have been tough!
It was very, very tough.
What was that "don only" you said?
It seems like it's very popular.
Just saying "don only" made me want to throw up.
I was like "what is this?!"
Just saying "don only" whenever something happens.
"don only" with this kind of tension.
I think I'm getting numb.
Anyway, I learned a lot about "gay" on the second day.
Oh, is that so?
Yes. Do you know who is the most popular "gay" among celebrities now?
Sponsors, actors...
Who is it?
The most popular one is Shinagawa.
What?!
Really?!
He's a famous person.
His hair is short.
Really?!
He's very popular.
I see!
"don only"?!
He's a pretty cute guy.
"don only"?!
He's very popular.
He introduced me to Tsuyoshi.
He kept telling me about him.
He looks like a little James Dean today.
"don only"?!
Let's continue watching.
From now on, I won't laugh at all.
What?!
It can't be helped.
But you won't cry, will you?
I will never cry.
I'm sure Matsumoto-san will cry, too.
No, when I was Himura, I was a little more serious.
Oh, really?
Then I'll cry.
Really?!
Let's continue watching.
Go ahead!
Fujimoto spends a week with a gay marching band, Brass Mix.
Immediately, one of the members held a welcome party for Fujimoto at a cheap shop.
Fujimoto's nickname was decided to be "Fumin".
Have you ever been to a competition?
It's my first time going out this year, Okama.
First time?!
Okama, it's your first time!
A week later, Brass Mix makes their first official appearance in a marching band.
Fujimoto was also invited, but...
But I've never played an instrument before...
Then you'll have to do it for us!
Will Fujimoto be able to master an instrument in a week?
For now, let me show you around the practice venue.
All of the members are gay in this marching band.
But, the water business is cheap and everyone else works for the company.
Some of them are their bosses and co-workers, and some of them are coming out of being gay and working.
Fujimoto will be playing this instrument with five drums.
It's heavy!
Let go of it.
It's heavy!
It weighs ten kilograms!
During about ten minutes of playing, it's a pretty hard instrument to carry, hit and walk around with.
This is amazing!
And the drums are the band's heart.
If Fujimoto's rhythm goes crazy, the band will collapse.
It's heavy!
A little more!
First of all, the basics of the basics.
Starting with how to hold the drumstick and practicing.
And then...
Good morning.
Who is that?
That's our conductor, Toby.
- Conductor? - Yes.
Conductor?
Conductor Toby!
After graduating from music college, he started up a gay band,
a brass mix founder.
However, due to strict guidance, the members are afraid of him.
Okay!
Everyone, please gather up!
- Okay! - Okay!
After Toby's gathering, the members are nervous.
This is our first competition, and we're in a bad condition.
If one of us falls, everyone will fall.
Please be aware of that and practice.
- Yes! - Yes!
Okay, let's split up into parts.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
Nice to meet you. My name is Fujimoto.
I'll do my best, so please let me join this band.
Please.
We don't refuse those who come and don't chase those who leave.
- Yes. - Is that okay?
Fujimoto's entry into the band was easily accepted.
However...
Listen more!
Listen to the tempo!
- Do you understand? - Yes, we do.
As practice began,
strict guidance from conductor Toby began.
You're late!
And you were like, "b-b-b-b"
Once you're off, watch everyone's practice.
Okay.
Is everyone ready?
We don't have much time.
Focus.
Let's do it from the head.
The one who missed out on part practice is...
Yuu-chan in charge of baritone sax.
Fujimoto, who saw Tobi's merciless guidance...
I'm scared, Tobi-san.
Will everyone cry when you first came in?
They will.
Watching you made me want to lose.
Afraid of Tobi, practice after performance is practice after practice.
Like this, Fujimoto's long day is over.
Man, I'm tired.
Tobi-san, you're too strict.
I can't help it! I'll do my best!
Let's get our spirits up and do it again!
Let's do it!
One, two...
What time is it?!
Even at a time like this?!
It's day two.
This day, they go to a certain place in the morning.
Where are we going today?
The world is fun.
Fujimoto was brought to Yomiuri Land.
Brass Mix regularly organizes gay parades and concerts to promote gay human rights.
Fujimoto also participated in this event as a band member, but...
He can't play an instrument yet, so he's in charge of the placard.
After the concert, Fujimoto goes straight to the practice room.
Fujimoto has never played an instrument before.
He can't keep up with the rhythm at all.
When conductor Toby arrived, the whole practice started.
They will play a famous theme song of the movie "Brazil".
But Fujimoto can't keep up with them at all.
Can you play lower notes? It's important to decide the rhythm.
Especially the baritone saxophone.
I've been telling you for days.
I've been telling you for a week or two.
Yesterday, Toby noticed him and Yu-chan, who was stood up, became Toby's puppet again.
Can you play the baritone saxophone from A?
That's a ghost.
One more time.
Play it with a louder voice!
Louder!
Hello!
Can you hear me?
Hey!
Why do you get smaller when you say louder?
Do you have a guitar?
Do you think you can just play it?
If you can play an instrument by crying, everyone is crying.
Yuu-chan sheds tears over her merciless failure.
Other members' expressions also freeze over their harsh instructions.
And at that moment...
Tobi-san...
Can you speak a little louder?
You don't know anything! Can you shut up?!
Yes.
Fujimoto can't say anything back.
His practice with Yuu-chan ends with regret and frustration.
On this day, Fujimoto decides to practice by himself at Yuu-chan's house in order to cheer up Yuu-chan who is depressed.
However...
Hey, are you still depressed?
I'm not confident.
I don't think I can do it.
I said I can't do it!
Fumi doesn't know how I feel.
I hate watching it anymore.
I can't do it.
I'm quitting.
Yuu-chan quits the band.
Unexpectedly, Fujimoto calls Yasuko, who is in charge of organizing the band, as an assistant.
I'm sorry, Yasuko-chan.
No, no, no.
Huh?
Tobi-san...
Huh?!
I asked you to come with me. I thought we should talk about it.
Surprisingly, Tobi-san, who is the enemy of the band, starts a conversation in an awkward atmosphere.
I said let's do it!
I said I can do it!
I can't!
I'm saying I can do it!
How much can you do?
You're not a man who can do much.
You're a good man.
It's not only you who are suffering.
Everyone has their own suffering as gay people.
Thanks to these words, Tobi-san starts talking about his feelings in his heart.
Did you have such feelings, Tobi-san?
Of course...
Only me...
Is it only me?
I felt very lonely.
Not now, really.
I'm surrounded by a lot of people.
Hmm...
I say a lot of things...
But no one is there to talk with me...
Hmm...
For Tobi, the band is the place where he can shine as a gay person.
And this challenge was also a place of appeal for the public to know about gay people.
Tobi's guidance was heated up by his feelings of not being able to perform in such a competition.
On top of that, Tobi made a decision before the competition.
I kept it a secret from everyone...
But I'm thinking of becoming a parent tomorrow.
He wants to hide his gayness and escape his backwardness.
He wants to be proud of himself.
Before the competition, Toby tells his parents that he is gay.
If we practice hard and work together, we can do it together.
We can do it together, right?
I'll do my best.
Yeah, let's do it.
Yeah.
Yuu answers Toby's passionate feelings with tears for the first time.
It seems that their feelings have finally been understood.
The day of their fate of coming out to their parents.
The two headed for Toby's hometown, Ibaraki.
That house, right now.
Oh, yes.
It has wings.
Yeah.
It's been 10 years since Toby went back to his parents' house.
Because of his backwardness of hiding his gayness, he hasn't been able to see his parents for 10 years.
But he doesn't want to tell any more lies.
Finally, Toby reveals a secret to his parents.
Beyond this door is Toby's lost 10 years.
Toby's lost 10 years.
Hello.
I'm sorry for coming all of a sudden.
I'm sorry.
It's been a while.
Um...
My son really wants to talk about something with his parents.
That's why I'm here.
Is the camera OK?
Yes, it's fine.
Is it OK?
They allowed him to put a mosaic on his face under one condition - permission to film.
But how will his parents accept their son's return after 10 years and his sudden coming out?
I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused you.
I'm really sorry.
Do you still make music?
Yes.
Do you continue making music?
Yes, I do.
Well...
Actually...
Um...
Well...
Toby hasn't been able to talk about the secrets he's been hiding for 28 years.
But finally...
Actually...
This program is brought to you by the following sponsors.
It's showtime!
That looks delicious!
Actually...
Um...
Well...
It's hard for Toby to say the secrets he's been hiding for 28 years.
But finally...
We're doing a marching band with gay people.
And... Well, the award has been given, but...
One of the members is called "fumin".
I told you that we're marching band with gay people, didn't I?
Of course, I'm one of them.
I'm at the top of it.
I have to tell you that, too.
Toby kept telling his parents about the secrets he's been hiding for 28 years.
But his parents couldn't hide their sudden confession from him.
As a parent, I'm shocked, but...
Um... Why did it become like that?
That's what I think.
His mother, who didn't know anything about it, seems to have been quite shocked.
While awkward silence flows through the room, his father quietly opens his mouth.
Well, it's Takeshi's life, so...
I have nothing more to say about it.
I have a strong feeling about it.
Please live with that in mind.
Yes.
I want him to live with pride and not be ashamed of being gay.
His father and mother kindly accepted his sudden confession.
They say there is no absolute in this world,
but perhaps there is an absolute feeling in their hearts.
I'm looking forward to meeting you.
Me too.
I've seen you on TV.
Are you gay?
I'm a big believer.
Yes, because of the bodyguards.
I'll go out with you, really.
And on this day, they returned to Tokyo from Ibaraki and practiced until midnight.
For the members, this band is their pride in being gay.
Even in a competition, they don't want to play in vain.
Why are you doing this? Damn it!
Damn it!
Fujimoto's intense training continues unless he can't step on the passionate feelings of the members.
This is really heavy.
It's really heavy.
Fujimoto's waist, which supports a drum weighing 10 kilograms, was already approaching its limit.
However, Fujimoto never stopped practicing.
At last, it's time for the show.
Outside of the venue, there are a lot of people.
This marching band competition is the 8th time this year for DRUM GO! JAPAN.
Before each performance, each team has no hesitation in their last challenge.
Among them, there is a strong combination of all countries.
And this time, for the first time on stage, Brass Mix and Fujimoto are...
Ah, I'm nervous. This is bad.
For Fujimoto, who has never performed in front of an audience for the first time in a competition,
it's like a real showdown.
A single failure can lead to a failure for the whole team.
The unbearable pressure attacks Fujimoto.
The competition starts around Fujimoto.
The performance of the strong teams from all over the country is beyond imagination.
How much of their skills will work?
And finally, it's time for the show.
Ah, I'm going to fall.
Let's go!
It's showtime!
What kind of finale will Brass Mix and Fujimoto's 7-day journey welcome?
We are Brass Mix.
We are a marching band composed of all gay members.
Brass Mix is a marching band of all members of gay.
Is your song ready?
One, two, one, two.
The last song played by the gay marching band Brass Mix and Fujimoto has begun.
One, two, one, two.
The last song played by the gay marching band Brass Mix and Fujimoto has begun.
When he met gay people, he was full of confusion and anxiety, but now he has a lot of important friends.
His face is grumpy, but he is the most troublesome Yasuko.
He even came out to his parents and ran for the tournament.
Yuu-chan, who has overcome frustration and come this far.
The melody played by the gay members resonated powerfully and proudly regardless of gender.
Yuu-chan, who has overcome frustration and come this far.
And finally, Fujimoto's show, drum solo!
Yuu-chan, who has overcome frustration and come this far.
Great success! Completion from the venue has risen!
After making a big heart mark, the first and last performance of the gays and Fujimoto was over.
The members of the gays raised their voices of joy at the performance of satisfaction.
Thank you for your hard work!
In a short amount of practice time, the members praised Fujimoto, who masterfully mastered an instrument called "the heart of a marching band".
This week, too many things passed like a storm, is finally coming to an end.
It's time to say goodbye.
Wow, it was fun, wasn't it?
I think it's because of Fumi that I was able to enjoy the sound.
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
Until now...
I didn't think I'd make it this far.
It's been a while since I've been this happy.
Thank you!
I was even more moved.
You know...
You came all the way here.
You're doing well for your girlfriend.
You're busy, but you're doing your best.
I know you're busy, but you're doing your best.
I thought you'd make it this far.
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
The comrades who fought through this tough week.
Something hot that words can't express
touched their hearts.
And...
You know...
Practice was really...
It was tough sometimes, but...
You know...
Everyone's cheerfulness and smiles...
It saved me.
You know, at first...
I was...
I was a little upset, but...
Now I really love you all so much.
It was really fun.
Thank you.
I'm leaving.
See you somewhere.
See you.
Come and see me.
See you.
Stop me.
Wait a minute! Everyone, surround Fumi!
Watch out! Watch out!
How much?!
Why is it only you and Himura?
I don't know.
I don't know what Himura is.
There are people who are absolutely useless to any organization.
I was there at the time.
Look at Yuu and Yuu-chan.
I was Togo-chan at the time.
But we will do our best for you two.
Who is useless?
Crying.
Who is useless?
Seriously.
It was a part where no one got hurt.
But I will say it again.
Is the narration Ijiri Okada?
Last week, this fast-forwarded battle was held in Kansai dialect.
The rules were simple. Look at the picture and say your impressions in Kansai dialect.
Wah! Say it!
This is wrong, wrong, wrong!
Unbelievable new answers came out in a row!
Who is the best at Kansai dialect?
Then, let's go!
First, this picture!

Okay, Minna.
You are not motivated at all!
What is that?
Let's answer in standard language!
Unlike before, five people who usually speak Kansai dialect will challenge in standard language.
The rule is to look at the picture and answer the impression in standard language.
Who can speak standard language the best?
Let's see! Here is the picture!
Wow!
What is this?
Two people from Tokyo.
Nothing special!
It's a little lonely!
Mr. Matsumoto! Mr. Matsumoto! What's up?
You used to be Bacardi, didn't you?
It's kind of old!
It stinks!
Yes, yes, yes! Look at the camera! Yes, yes, yes!
You didn't say anything!
But it doesn't come out!
Next! Here!
What is it? Is it a person?
Is it a person?
Mr. Matsumoto!
It looks delicious!
It's a middle-aged man!
It looks delicious!
He's not in the city!
Everyone likes sheep and eats them, but aren't sheep cute?
It's delicious!
But it's long!
It's a challenge!
Mr. Okusa!
I came here because I saw a magazine.
I made a reservation with five people, but I'm the only one who hasn't come yet.
Isn't everyone late?
It's cute!
Mr. Matsumoto!
I came here because I saw "Tokyo Ogre".
It's delicious!
Isn't it delicious?
It's cute!
Mr. Matsumoto!
I came here because I saw "Tokyo Ogre".

Ayamuro!
Whose gag band is this?
Nimura!
This is World Cup, isn't it?
Bonus! Bonus!
Otake!
Pass!
Now, let's go to the last one!
Do your best, everyone!
Ayamuro!
The white shirt is Johnson, isn't it?
That's right.
Let me summarize it first.
Ayamuro!
You're wearing my clothes, aren't you?!
What are you doing?!
Now, Nimura!
You can't score anymore goals!
Otake!
Ah, I'm busy!
Bonus!
Winner is Otake!
And so...
The one who used Kansai dialect the best is...
Summer's Otake!
Yes! Congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Now, let's go to the last one!
Please tell us how you felt when you entered the final round in Kansai dialect.
I'm happy!
One step!
The Kansai comedian who uses standard language will fight...
Miyasako and Yamaguchi will lead by one step!
Well...
Here it is!
I don't know...
Hey, everyone!
People who only train their muscles like this...
If there is glass in the middle of the street...
They will definitely check their own body, right?
Why are you so kind?
I don't like this kind of feeling!
Masuo-san!
You are so kind!
No...
I'm tired!
You are not tired, are you?
What are you discovering?
Everyone has their own strength...
But Shino's bust is bigger, right?
Whose bust is it?
Well...
Muscles are amazing, aren't they?
Who?
Oyuki!
I don't like it at all!
He fell!
He trained so much!
The end!
I'm glad!
Miyasako and Yamaguchi are tied!
The winner will be decided by their direct competition!
Please say your impressions in standard Japanese!
To the one who was the best!
I see!
Yes!
Well...
I had a lot of fun trying it out...
I'm just saying what I usually say...
It wasn't a problem at all...
That's good!
Miyasako!
To be honest...
I'm talking in the drama...
Wait a minute!
It's a joke!
The final winner is...
Miyasako!
Thank you very much!
Could you tell us how you feel now?
I feel like a family member now. I'm so happy!
Perfect!
One day, after recording "Lincoln", comedians gathered in a bar late at night.
Anomikai was about to open again.
"Lincoln's Delusion Club" is finally...
Thank you for your hard work!
When viewers saw "Lincoln's Delusion Club",
they asked us to answer this question as well.
This time, comedians will make "Lincoln's Delusion Club" popular as much as possible.
Let's do it!
How do you produce "Lincoln's Delusion Club"?
This is difficult!
As an idol who has always been at the forefront of people's admiration,
what would you do if you produced "Lincoln's Delusion Club"?
First of all, before we hear the opinions of "Lincoln's Delusion Club" members,
we will introduce "Lincoln's Delusion Club"'s voice.
We will add things we haven't done before.
The one who produces "Lincoln's Delusion Club" with a dirty feeling will be popular.
I think "Lincoln's Delusion Club"'s cuteness is the best when we wear school uniforms.
I want people in the city to run as hard as they can.
As you can see, "Lincoln's Delusion Club" is popular in the city.
Then, what kind of opinions will come out of "Lincoln's Delusion Club"?
I want to be a producer's president.
I want to be a producer's producer's director.
I want to be a talent zero.
I want to be a comedian.
I want to be in a major agency as soon as possible.
For example, if you are an idol or an actor, you want to be a celebrity's son or daughter.
I want to be a comedian's son or daughter.
Do you want to be an idol?
I want to be an idol or a hammer's son or daughter.
Can you handle it?
I can handle it, but I think it will sell well.
I think it will sell once.
There is a 9 years old girl.
She has a cute reaction.
All girls have a cute reaction.
But when girls from different classes gather together, some girls have a cute reaction.
Do you mean their reaction?
When I'm playing a game and it doesn't work, I'll be like "I won't do it anymore!"
But when I'm like "Okay, let's leave it at that" and when the atmosphere is like "cute", I won't do it like that.
If you had a daughter, where would you put her?
I think she'll take good care of me.
She'll definitely take good care of you.
Even if you don't want to say it, she'll take good care of you.
Do you have confidence in your daughter?
She's an ogi.
She's definitely not a kangae.
She's definitely not an ogi.
Ogi is that thing...
What is an ogi?
Kangae.
The worst.
An idol who will definitely sell well.
You can watch the preview of "Dream Club" here.
This program was brought to you by the sponsors you see here.
Next time on "Dream Club"...
A shocking new project! Let's go wild in the studio!
In addition...
A laughing demon teacher who scolds the members of "Dream Club" comes to visit!
I'm scared of demons!
This is bad!
Straight ahead!
That's how stupid you are!
