[NHK Headquarters Information Room]
Okay, let's say it together.
One, two...
Suienser!
Today...
Today, we will tell you about the information room of the NHK Headquarters 14th floor.
Oh!
We will tell you about the information room of the NHK Headquarters 14th floor.
I see.
I heard that this information room is closely related to Suienser.
Actually, this place promoted Suienser as well.
I see.
Thank you for that.
Here it is.
Ta-dah!
Here it is.
It's huge!
Half of it.
It's a lot of food.
Suienser...
It's time for "Food Kitchen Fruit Jelly Edition", which always fails.
Well, we are grateful for it.
Yes, we are.
There are a lot of posters.
There are posters.
Kouki Mitani will star in the puppet show "NHK".
Mitani seems to like this show and watch it a lot.
Oh, really?
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
The producer said, "If you like it, please invite Mitani."
Oh!
That's what he said.
I immediately said, "No, I don't think she will come."
She won't come.
We can't do it like we always do.
That's right!
We can't do it like we always do.
What will we do today?
Oh!
What is this?
Oh, my!
A giraffe!
You know it's a giraffe, don't you?
It's quite long.
Oh, my!
What's wrong with the giraffe?
So, today's theme is...
Ta-da!
Why is a giraffe's neck so long?
This is...
It's like...
Darwin?
Yes.
Don't you know about Darwin?
It's for elementary school students.
Is it your first time hearing about it?
Darwin is...
Why is a giraffe's neck so long?
We're going to..
Find out the reason for the giraffe's neck being so long.
Let's go!
Let's start our investigation at the zoo!
Hey, hey, what's wrong with the giraffe?
- There was a pelican, so... - Is it close?
- Amime giraffe? - It's close!
- Huh? - It's a giraffe!
- Amime giraffe! - Oh, it's a giraffe!
You've finally shown yourself!
I've been waiting for you so long that I thought you'd grow all the way up to your neck!
Anyway, why is your neck so long?
I thought it was for eating the grass up there.
But, you know, other animals can eat even if their necks are short.
- Hmm... - Why?
- They can do things that other animals can't. - Oh, like being tall?
- Yeah, animals with long necks only have giraffes. - Right.
- Why? - Why is that?
- Amime giraffe!
- Yes! - Ooh!
- Ah! - Ah!
- You scared me! - Huh?
- He's related to giraffes. - Giraffes?
- He's related to giraffes. - Yes.
Related to giraffes?
That's obviously suspicious, but let's ask anyway.
- Why is your neck so long? - That's right!
- I want to know! - I don't know!
When you think about why your neck is so long,
I think you should get a little closer and take a good look.
- Oh! - We're getting closer?
- We're getting closer! - Oh!
- Oh!
- Let's go! - Yes!
- Let's go! - Let's go!
- So we came to... - Huh? - Parking lot? - Huh? - Is this a grassland? - And what is this? - What is this? - It goes up high. - It looks like a swing. - Right? - Yes! - It's called "Kirin-no-kubi - taiken-mashin"! - It means "get close to a kirin and become a kirin"!
- Yes! - We're ready! - Let's go! - Okay! - Kirin - taiken-mashin is up to Nacchan! - Are we still going? - Huh? - Isn't it high? - Huh? - Is it this high? - It's high! - It's almost 5 meters high like a kirin's eye level. - Go! Go! Go! - Everyone's pulling! - It's high! - It might be windy. - Yes, it's windy up there.
- Huh? Wait! - What's wrong, Nacchan? - There's a grassland behind us, right? - Yes. - I can see the enemy there. - Huh? - There's no enemy! - There is! Look! - There isn't! - Again! You're always joking! - There's nothing there! - Even from a kirin's eye level, it's just grass!
- No, there's something moving! - Look! There's something moving there! - No! - There is! - Behind! - No! - No! Kirin-taken-mashin!
- Whoa! - Whoa!
The king of beasts that jumped out of the grassland...
A.K.A. "mean" is going to get eaten!
- That's scary! - I know!
When you become a kirin, you can see things in the distance...
and you can also see enemies hiding in the grassland in the distance!
I see!
If you think you can solve the problem quickly...
- Here you go, Kirin-bou! - What is it?
What is it this time?
- It's Lion-san again! - It's Lion-san again!
- Lion-san is scary! - Right?
Let me explain!
Kirin-bou is a super excellent mecha that has a small camera mounted at the height of a kirin's eyes!
- How is it? - Nice!
- Can you see something? - I can see it!
- It's looking down at us! - It's totally different from the scenery!
- It's really close to the leaves! - Oh, you're right!
It's close! It's close!
- It's like it's eating food! - It's like it's eating food!
- It's eating like this! - Right?
The delicious leaves are right in front of you...
and you have a long neck! That's a good thing!
- But if you do it like this... - Yeah?
- You can't see where you're standing! - Right?
- Oh, you're right! You can't see where you're standing! - Oh, you're right!
- I hope you don't trip and fall! - Right?
- I hope you don't trip and fall! - I wonder...
Huh? Does a kirin's neck have weaknesses too?
Tell me!
Huh? What are you drinking?
It's good, isn't it?
What?
What will you do when you're thirsty?
There's a river under my feet...
This is what you do.
I've prepared wild water for you.
Wow!
There is!
What?
Now...
Drink water with a Kirin stick!
My hands!
No way!
It's heavy!
No way!
You can do it!
I can't drink water yet.
Can you hold it for me?
A little more!
No way!
A little more!
I drank it!
She drank it!
That was hard.
No way!
I'll come back and drink it again!
Really?
Can you drink water with a Kirin stick?
It's hard.
It's hard, isn't it?
Furthermore...
A white lump appears.
What is this?
It's hard!
A bone?
It's a bone!
Isn't it a head?
Isn't it a nose?
Isn't it a head?
A horn?
A neck joint!
Wonderful!
It's a neck bone, isn't it?
Wow!
Actually, this person is a Kirin-related person.
He is Professor Endo of Tokyo University.
He is a researcher who knows the mechanism of animals' bodies in great detail.
Is it this big?
Yes, it is.
You were carrying a giraffe and it was heavy and difficult to drink water, weren't you?
A real giraffe...
Is it heavy and difficult?
I think so.
Is it really long and necessary?
Isn't it okay if it's short?
Because there are many animals with short legs.
That's right.
Why is that?
The mystery only gets deeper and deeper.
What will you do, AKB48?
You're fast.
If you're going to use a lion nanograde, you should use an oriental lion.
There are leaves and enemies in the distance.
I'm sure of that.
I'm sure of that, too.
There are advantages and disadvantages.
First of all, it's hard to see your feet.
Second of all, it's hard to drink water.
But if you're looking far away, it's good in a wild space.
Oh, it's a bone.
Neck bone.
Is it heavy?
Oh, it's hard.
Wow, it's amazing.
I'm sorry, but I can't see it.
I wonder what this form is. Isn't it a little cool?
It's like an old cell phone.
Hold it.
Yes, I'll hold it.
Did you do that?
I didn't do anything.
And this connects seven.
It connects seven.
Oh, I see.
Then it's not that big.
One by one, but it looks like a giraffe's face, doesn't it?
It looks like.
Where's the giraffe's face?
Here are seven.
So the eighth one is the face.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's a message from Mr. Endo.
A giraffe's neck and head weigh about 200 to 250 kilograms.
In other words, it's about one-fifth to one-fourth of your weight.
Imagine replacing it with yourself.
Are you imagining it now?
I'm imagining it.
One-fifth to one-fourth of your weight.
No, it's pretty stiff.
So the giraffe's back is pretty thick.
It's like it's really supporting you.
Here's a little funny vtr that Mr. Endo prepared for you.
What?
Vtr?
Yes.
I've never heard of it before.
What is it?
Open your legs.
Oh, it's "open your legs."
Huh? I've never heard of it before.
Wow.
It is hard to drink, but...
Is there something like a water rider?
I'm sure there is.
As you can see, for a giraffe to drink water,
it is necessary for it to have a pretty defenseless posture.
In addition, in order to support a heavy neck,
it is necessary for it to have a strong human body and muscles.
Did you find out that the giraffe is drinking water with great effort?
By end.
Why did you take that risk and make your neck longer?
That's what it means, isn't it?
It's because I'm great, isn't it?
You call it "because you're great"?
It's because of my eyes from above.
I don't like it when people look at me from above.
It's pride.
Yes, I want to make my neck longer and look down from above.
I want to be a human on earth.
Are you a human on earth?
I wonder if I've been waiting for something fun from now on.
My neck is longer.
I made my neck longer and painted it in my VTR.
You were told about it in the narration.
It reminded me of "Shinmai Dega".
Why does a giraffe have a long neck even though there are so many inconveniences?
Here you go, lion-kun.
Lion-kun?
What is it?
A stuffed animal.
There is only one giraffe companion in this.
Giraffe companion?
In other words, it is a relative of a giraffe separated from the same ancestor, right?
First of all, isn't the elephant different?
Why?
Huh? Chris, do you think it's an elephant?
Huh? Why do you think it's an elephant?
Because it's long.
The nose is?
Oh, it has a long neck.
I think it's this one.
Huh? Elephant...
I think it's this one, too.
The correct answer is...
Okapi!
Okapi?
Huh? Is it Okapi?
Is it a horse companion?
It's a giraffe companion.
It's a giraffe companion, right?
Hey, listen to me!
Do you know this one?
Giraffe...
This one is...
Okapi.
Huh? I've never seen this before.
Where is it similar?
Huh?
It's different.
Horse and giraffe?
It's more like a giraffe, isn't it?
Even though a giraffe and an okapi are relatives,
why do they have such different neck lengths?
And at that moment...
Lion, go ahead!
I don't know what you're talking about!
Three plants suddenly appeared.
Does a giraffe's neck length have anything to do with it?
I have no idea.
Huh? Why?
Why is it like a giraffe?
But isn't this the longest one?
It's rice.
What do you call a rice companion?
What?
Rice.
Isn't it different?
We call it "ineka."
Oh!
Ine's companion.
Oh!
What kind of hint is this?
"Ine's companion" is...
a giraffe with a long neck.
It became an animal with a giraffe with a long neck.
It's the biggest cause of giraffe's neck.
Really?
What does it mean that a plant in a field stretched giraffe's neck?
The doctor took a picture again.
It means you should take a good look at it again.
Oh, no! I can't see where I live.
Where is Okapi?
Forest?
Is this a grassland?
Yes.
There are not many trees around here.
She noticed it well.
Okapi is an animal that lives in a forest with green grassland.
On the other hand, a giraffe is an animal that lives in a grassland area.
Is this a giraffe's companion?
In fact, grasslands where giraffes live are full of rice plants as far as they can be seen.
These rice plants are relatively malnourished and have poor results.
Because of these grasslands, it was very advantageous for a giraffe with a long neck to reach high leaves.
But wait a minute!
In the first place, why does a giraffe have to live in a grassland full of rice plants?
If there were a lot of delicious leaves in the forest, you wouldn't have to grow out your neck for a long time.
A long time ago, on top of the earth's land, there was a forest bigger than it is now.
And what has that changed to now?
It was mentioned in the giraffe's picture earlier.
- Grassland? - Yeah.
- It's gone. - Yeah.
- Why? - Yeah.
- Why? - Why?
- Water? - Oh!
- So it doesn't rain? - Oh!
So it doesn't rain and big trees don't grow,
- so grassland grew out of it? - Exactly.
- Wow! - Yay!
That's the right answer!
Before the giraffe appeared on earth, the land was covered in vast greenery.
However, about 20 million years ago, due to climate change on earth, there was a time when it rained extremely little.
The trees in the forest withered, and instead, the plants with strong droughts grew.
And so, the giraffe's ancestors had no choice but to live in the grassland.
In other words, the plants in the grassland were the ones who grew out of the giraffe's neck.
If the giraffe's neck is long, it means both good and bad things happened.
But, in order to survive, it took thousands of years and continued to grow out of its neck.
Is this really what was good about it? Only the giraffe knows.
That's all for our investigation report!
Yes.
Does it grow because you want to eat it?
But it's not because you want to live.
But it's because there's always food around here, right?
Humans also...
Humans also grow, don't they?
If there's food around here, it'll grow like this.
That's right, it'll grow.
If you eat it, it'll grow.
No, no.
The next generation is the next generation.
It doesn't grow by itself.
It's a generation scale.
Ta-dah!
I'll say it again from Professor Endo's point of view.
Yes.
In the long history of the earth,
we can say that the creatures that happened to be in the environment at that time and time again have survived as a result.
Today's creatures may not be good at living in accordance with the current natural environment.
However, if the environment changes,
it is not promised that humans, including Endo, will be able to survive and live safely in the future.
That's right.
Human evolution is science.
You may have forgotten about this show,
but it's a science show, isn't it?
How was it?
Somehow, by science evolving,
the earth is being eaten up like this,
and there, animals are increasingly...
Don't overdo it!
Don't stretch your back!
Even though you're not a giraffe.
I'm not a giraffe.
Oh, you're good.
Ta-dah!
Yes!
Yes! At Sui Answer, we're collecting questions that you're curious about.
In addition, we're looking forward to your impressions of the show, such as "I tried it out."
Please!
Now!
Yes!
Then, finally...
Yes!
Let's say it together!
Yes!
Then we'll say it together.
One, two...
