(SPEAKER_03): Nicely, Obi-life!
(SPEAKER_04): This show is about obi which is not well-known to Japanese people.
(SPEAKER_04): We will deliver you more and more information about your obi life.
(SPEAKER_04): I will be your host for this show.
(SPEAKER_04): As a host, he's Obinnie Mizuka and Tasukiri Nagashi.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you for coming!
(SPEAKER_05): Thank you.
(SPEAKER_05): Yes.
(SPEAKER_05): I see.
(SPEAKER_05): Well...
(SPEAKER_05): Obi and Kimo,
(SPEAKER_05): you know...
(SPEAKER_05): I can't say it.
(SPEAKER_05): Please say it properly.
(SPEAKER_05): What's wrong?
(SPEAKER_05): It's the worst.
(SPEAKER_04): It's the worst to say it halfway and stop.
(SPEAKER_05): No, no, no.
(SPEAKER_05): Obi and Kimo,
(SPEAKER_05): we'll do our best.
(SPEAKER_05): Of course!
(SPEAKER_05): We'll make it work.
(SPEAKER_04): Please stay with us for an hour.
(SPEAKER_04): Let me introduce our guests for today.
(SPEAKER_04): First of all, Mr. Setsuko Izumi, chairman of the Izumi-ryu Soke-soke Association.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you for having me.
(SPEAKER_04): What kind of obi do you have today?
(SPEAKER_06): This is a western-style obi.
(SPEAKER_06): It has been worn by the Owari Tokugawa faction from the 7th generation of the Hyougen Izumi-ryu Soke family
(SPEAKER_06): and until the 18th generation.
(SPEAKER_06): The design of a flower rabbit was given to us by the special investigation team.
(SPEAKER_06): We have woven in a design like this here.
(SPEAKER_03): If we can't use this valuable obi, how much is it worth?
(SPEAKER_06): It must be several million yen.
(SPEAKER_06): Wow!
(SPEAKER_06): That's right.
(SPEAKER_04): Wow, that's amazing!
(SPEAKER_04): Next up is the author, Iwashita Hisafumi.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you for joining us.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you for having me.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you for joining us.
(SPEAKER_04): What kind of obi is that?
(SPEAKER_11): This is the early days of the war.
(SPEAKER_11): What?
(SPEAKER_11): I brought this when I came to my house for my wedding before the Sunday War.
(SPEAKER_04): Since then?
(SPEAKER_11): Yes, it is.
(SPEAKER_11): In the past, this was a round obi.
(SPEAKER_11): From Meiji to Taisho, women wore obis with a width of 68cm or 70cm.
(SPEAKER_11): In the past, women tied their obis with two of them.
(SPEAKER_11): So, if you wear it as a man's obi, you can take three of them.
(SPEAKER_11): I see.
(SPEAKER_11): So, you can take three of them and give two of them to your friends and put them under the obi.
(SPEAKER_11): So, there were three of them in the first place?
(SPEAKER_11): Yes, in the past, people used to tie heavy obi.
(SPEAKER_04): Does this alone give you a lot of weight?
(SPEAKER_11): Yes, I used to tie heavy obi to my slender body.
(SPEAKER_03): It's a lesson.
(SPEAKER_04): Next is a kimono magazine.
(SPEAKER_04): She is a beautiful kimono and former deputy editor-in-chief, KIMIKO TOMIZAWA.
(SPEAKER_15): Thank you for your time.
(SPEAKER_04): TOMIZAWA's obi is also a nice obi.
(SPEAKER_15): Christmas is three days later.
(SPEAKER_15): This is a Christmas embroidery obi.
(SPEAKER_15): This is an obi embroidered by Shizuka Kusa.
(SPEAKER_15): This is a Christmas pattern.
(SPEAKER_03): This is cute.
(SPEAKER_04): There is such a thing.
(SPEAKER_11): There is a flutter in a big snowflake.
(SPEAKER_04): I would like to talk about obi with wonderful guests.
(SPEAKER_04): I have an obi wrapped.
(SPEAKER_04): Can I make a joke about obi?
(SPEAKER_04): Shall we do it? It's just the opening.
(SPEAKER_04): Yes!
(SPEAKER_04): Okay, excuse me.
(SPEAKER_05): Yes.
(SPEAKER_05): Luke Skywalker, defeat Darth Vader with the power of force!
(SPEAKER_05): Greetings, Obi-Wan Kenobi here.
(SPEAKER_05): Tom is like this...
(SPEAKER_04): Wow! Isn't it amazing?
(SPEAKER_04): It's my first time seeing you slide and end like that.
(SPEAKER_04): It was amazing.
(SPEAKER_04): Let's do it!
(SPEAKER_04): Let's roll it up and give it to Obi.
(SPEAKER_04): First of all, I'd like you to watch a simple video about Obi.
(SPEAKER_04): VTR!
(SPEAKER_14): Obi.
(SPEAKER_14): It's a story.
(SPEAKER_14): Japanese beauty, which has a history of 500 years.
(SPEAKER_14): Its origin was in Muromachi period.
(SPEAKER_14): At that time, obi was made for practical use.
(SPEAKER_14): It was like a thin string and the way of tying it wasn't constant.
(SPEAKER_14): Hiraguke obi, which is now used for yukata of inn and festival's announcement, was the mainstream form.
(SPEAKER_04): It's a moss.
(SPEAKER_14): The weather was like that of Edo period.
(SPEAKER_14): After the war ended and people started living more comfortably,
(SPEAKER_14): people started dressing up more.
(SPEAKER_14): They wanted to make it more artistic, not practical.
(SPEAKER_14): The width of the dress became about six times.
(SPEAKER_14): Such a modern obi style, wide and long obi style, was popularized by a person.
(SPEAKER_14): Here is a question for Mr. Shimasa.
(SPEAKER_14): Who is that person?
(SPEAKER_14): Please answer in 5 seconds.
(SPEAKER_05): 5 seconds...
(SPEAKER_05): Well...
(SPEAKER_05): Ms. Himiko.
(SPEAKER_05): It's too old.
(SPEAKER_14): The correct answer is...
(SPEAKER_14): The female kabuki actress, Uemura Kichiya.
(SPEAKER_03): This is impossible.
(SPEAKER_14): At that time, Kichiya was overwhelmingly popular with women.
(SPEAKER_14): But her knot was too loose and saggy.
(SPEAKER_14): So-called Kichiya knot was on stage.
(SPEAKER_14): This became a big hit among women in the world.
(SPEAKER_14): And they started copying each other.
(SPEAKER_14): It became a modern way of dressing.
(SPEAKER_05): It's a good lesson.
(SPEAKER_14): And now, from wedding ceremonies and ceremony venues,
(SPEAKER_14): to high-class scenes,
(SPEAKER_14): you can choose from various types of kimonos, from casual to formal.
(SPEAKER_14): There are many ways of tying and tying kimonos.
(SPEAKER_14): It's common to say that kimonos are decided by obi.
(SPEAKER_14): Such obi's charm has gone beyond the sea and is loved by overseas celebrities.
(SPEAKER_14): She became an indispensable presence in Japanese colorful culture.
(SPEAKER_14): Tonight, I'd like to dig deeper into that obi.
(SPEAKER_04): Wow!
(SPEAKER_04): That's amazing!
(SPEAKER_04): But it's a great lesson.
(SPEAKER_04): I didn't know anything about it.
(SPEAKER_04): Without further ado, is Kichiya-san of Kabuki famous for obi?
(SPEAKER_11): Yes, there were no TV or magazines at that time, so they copied popular actresses' dresses and costumes.
(SPEAKER_11): After Kichiya, a woman named Kikunojo Sezawa appeared and her last name was Roko.
(SPEAKER_11): So, people called her dress Rokomusubi.
(SPEAKER_11): I see.
(SPEAKER_11): It became popular.
(SPEAKER_11): It's like influencers now.
(SPEAKER_04): Yes, it became popular.
(SPEAKER_04): How about you, Tomizawa-san?
(SPEAKER_15): There are round obi, bubble obi, Nagoya obi and bubble Nagoya obi.
(SPEAKER_15): There are half-width obi, which is about 35-36cm wide.
(SPEAKER_15): There is a small bubble obi which is like a bubble.
(SPEAKER_15): And there is a type of obi that doesn't fold over a little bit.
(SPEAKER_15): There are four types of obi, but there are other types of obi.
(SPEAKER_05): Is there a deep meaning in ramen?
(SPEAKER_05): What is that?
(SPEAKER_14): What is that?
(SPEAKER_14): The studio is getting excited.
(SPEAKER_14): Nice obi life.
(SPEAKER_14): First of all, it is this corner.
(SPEAKER_14): Determined debate.
(SPEAKER_14): Three Japanese obis.
(SPEAKER_04): There are many types of obi, but today we will have three major obi,
(SPEAKER_04): Kyoto's Nishijin obi, Fukuoka's Hakata obi, Gunma's Kiryu obi,
(SPEAKER_04): and we will have a thorough discussion with these three major obi representatives,
(SPEAKER_04): and decide on the best obi in Japan.
(SPEAKER_04): It's no exaggeration to say that we are a show race of obi competitions.
(SPEAKER_04): I see.
(SPEAKER_04): By the way, we will have a discussion now, and in the end, you will decide which obi is the best in Japan.
(SPEAKER_04): What?
(SPEAKER_04): You are...
(SPEAKER_04): Me?
(SPEAKER_04): Yes, you are.
(SPEAKER_14): And the three of us will discuss about the best obi in Japan.
(SPEAKER_04): We have three great members.
(SPEAKER_04): I've heard that they are great.
(SPEAKER_04): We will discuss about it.
(SPEAKER_14): First of all, we will briefly explain each obi's characteristics.
(SPEAKER_10): Westerners' clothing is a very beautiful garment with patterns and colors that includes Kyoto's unique style and history.
(SPEAKER_14): Westerners' clothing features gorgeous and elegant designs included in Kyoto's royal culture.
(SPEAKER_14): It has been loved by the nobles of the past.
(SPEAKER_14): It is also designated as a national traditional craft.
(SPEAKER_14): It is truly an absolute champion of obi.
(SPEAKER_04): Is there anything you want to ask about the Nishijinori?
(SPEAKER_04): Hmm?
(SPEAKER_04): There is, you know! There is nothing!
(SPEAKER_04): But how much time do you spend on making Nishijinori?
(SPEAKER_10): Actually, this is not made by craftsmen alone.
(SPEAKER_10): It is made by a collaboration of craftsmen over 20 years old.
(SPEAKER_04): For example, there is someone who designs and that's it?
(SPEAKER_10): Yes, there is someone who draws.
(SPEAKER_10): And there is also a task of arranging and dyeing the thread before it is woven.
(SPEAKER_03): I see, it's like a mental game.
(SPEAKER_03): Each of you has a role and create one work.
(SPEAKER_14): Next is Gunma Kiryu Obi.
(SPEAKER_12): The production of the spruce is the number one in Gunma Prefecture.
(SPEAKER_14): The obi is made of Japan's largest and most productive land, and has a soft touch and unique gloss.
(SPEAKER_14): Furthermore, the obi share in Shichigo is also Japan's largest.
(SPEAKER_14): They are called the West's Westerners and the East's Kiryus, and are said to be absolute kings and have a strong bond with Westerners.
(SPEAKER_12): Today, we've prepared a gorgeous obi for seven-year-old girls.
(SPEAKER_12): I see, for seven-year-olds.
(SPEAKER_03): What do you think, Master?
(SPEAKER_03): But...
(SPEAKER_03): How much...
(SPEAKER_03): Children...
(SPEAKER_03): What is it?
(SPEAKER_04): You're not talking, idiot!
(SPEAKER_04): I'll kill you!
(SPEAKER_04): Calm down!
(SPEAKER_04): I'll kill you!
(SPEAKER_04): I'm sorry!
(SPEAKER_05): I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
(SPEAKER_14): And last, Fukuoka, Hakataori's characteristic is...
(SPEAKER_13): It has a lot of vertical threads.
(SPEAKER_13): A lot of threads?
(SPEAKER_13): Yes, if it's a lot of threads, it's about 10,000 of them.
(SPEAKER_13): But it's packed very tightly.
(SPEAKER_14): Its strength comes from its many vertical threads, and it is also used as a wheel for a blacksmith.
(SPEAKER_14): In the Edo period, warriors also used it as a tool for the Tokugawa family.
(SPEAKER_14): This is why it is so dark horse.
(SPEAKER_13): From men's obi to yukata obi and formal obi, it is now being made.
(SPEAKER_13): It is a very active industry in making things.
(SPEAKER_04): Excuse me, how is it?
(SPEAKER_04): Which is better, Osaka-be's beauty salon or Osaka-be's hair salon?
(SPEAKER_04): What are you talking about? You are so sensitive!
(SPEAKER_04): Obi is also like that, but you are so sensitive!
(SPEAKER_04): Your hairstyle was also very nice.
(SPEAKER_04): I was also thinking of Ms. Sina Ringo.
(SPEAKER_04): She is a former Kabuki actress.
(SPEAKER_04): You have a wonderful hairstyle like an apple picking master.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you.
(SPEAKER_04): Is it a one-step lead?
(SPEAKER_13): One point.
(SPEAKER_05): It was good.
(SPEAKER_05): You have a funny angle.
(SPEAKER_05): How about you?
{Possible Hallucination} What?
(SPEAKER_04): Me?
(SPEAKER_04): It's hot.
(SPEAKER_04): I didn't feel anything.
(SPEAKER_04): You have a nose hair.
(SPEAKER_04): Please pull it out.
(SPEAKER_04): My nose?
(SPEAKER_04): It's dangerous. I'll keep slipping everywhere.
(SPEAKER_04): Now, then...
(SPEAKER_04): The debate will begin now!
(SPEAKER_04): Okay!
(SPEAKER_04): You've been told that you're number one in your own way.
(SPEAKER_04): Okay!
(SPEAKER_04): Now, everyone, please flip the pages!
(SPEAKER_14): As you can see, each of you has three appealing points.
(SPEAKER_14): First of all...
(SPEAKER_04): Oh my! Everyone has the same history!
(SPEAKER_04): How many years has it been since the grave was dug up?
(SPEAKER_13): The grave was dug up about 780 years ago.
(SPEAKER_12): Is the grave dug up about 1300 years ago?
(SPEAKER_10): The history of the grave dug up from the West goes back to the Kofun period.
(SPEAKER_12): It's Kofun.
(SPEAKER_10): In the 5th century, it is said that a Toraisin named Hata brought things that were left in Kyoto.
(SPEAKER_04): So it's been brought in a long time ago.
(SPEAKER_04): Yes, it is.
(SPEAKER_04): How about you, Ms. Shima?
(SPEAKER_04): Excuse me, can you start over?
(SPEAKER_04): You idiot!
(SPEAKER_04): You're going to untie me!
(SPEAKER_03): But you know...
(SPEAKER_03): I think I understand now.
(SPEAKER_03): You're kidding me!
(SPEAKER_14): And now, the second battle for the most famous western woman has begun.
(SPEAKER_04): Itou-san, is there a famous woman everywhere?
(SPEAKER_10): I think that the most famous western woman is still the first one.
(SPEAKER_04): That's right. She might be the first one to come up with this question.
(SPEAKER_10): Yes, it is.
(SPEAKER_10): It is not only for kimonos, but also for other places.
(SPEAKER_10): For example, do you know of the doncho of Kabuki?
(SPEAKER_10): Oh, I know.
(SPEAKER_10): It is used for the decoration of the Gion Festival.
(SPEAKER_10): Oh, that is also a western style.
(SPEAKER_10): Yes, it is.
(SPEAKER_04): What do you think of the luxury of kiriori?
(SPEAKER_12): Kiriori is also a traditional craft of Japan.
(SPEAKER_12): Especially, school textbooks.
(SPEAKER_12): We receive materials like that.
(SPEAKER_12): I see.
(SPEAKER_12): We have a lot of materials like that.
(SPEAKER_13): Yes.
(SPEAKER_04): You said you are the most famous in NISHIJIORI.
(SPEAKER_13): I always think that the brand is amazing.
(SPEAKER_13): I think it's nice.
(SPEAKER_03): It's like GUCCI.
(SPEAKER_13): Yes.
(SPEAKER_04): You don't have to say much about foreign brands.
(SPEAKER_13): I'm not inferior to you in this.
(SPEAKER_13): If you go to Fukuoka, you will see many restaurants that have Hakata's representative design.
(SPEAKER_13): Some restaurants have a hotel bed design.
(SPEAKER_04): I see.
(SPEAKER_04): Some restaurants are luxurious.
(SPEAKER_13): Some restaurants have a ramen bowl design.
(SPEAKER_13): I think Hakata is no less than them.
(SPEAKER_04): Is that the ramen you ate at the opening ceremony of SHIMA?
(SPEAKER_13): That's right.
(SPEAKER_04): That must be a complete cut, so maybe...
{Possible Hallucination} Sorry!
(SPEAKER_05): If you don't use it, we don't say anything anymore.
(SPEAKER_05): Thank you for covering it up.
(SPEAKER_14): And even with the easy-to-tighten appeal of Hakataori, there are fighters who can't lose every time.
(SPEAKER_13): It's really comfortable to tighten it up and it has a sound of wood.
(SPEAKER_13): If you close it like this, it closes tightly.
(SPEAKER_13): Even for beginners, it is very easy to close and does not loosen.
(SPEAKER_13): It is very practical.
(SPEAKER_10): Western people's kimonos are also very tight,
(SPEAKER_10): so it is difficult to loosen when you close it and it closes very tightly.
(SPEAKER_10): The reason why Western people's kimonos are so excellent is that
(SPEAKER_10): Any person or any object has a better personality.
(SPEAKER_10): I think that's a great thing about westerners.
(SPEAKER_04): Does that mean you don't look like other people?
(SPEAKER_13): No, that's not true.
(SPEAKER_13): That's not true at all.
(SPEAKER_14): The debate by the three major obis has ended.
(SPEAKER_03): It was so exciting that we thought we would fight.
(SPEAKER_04): It was really hot.
(SPEAKER_03): It was heating up.
(SPEAKER_03): It was a great discussion.
(SPEAKER_04): Finally, the number one opinion in Japan will be decided now!
(SPEAKER_04): Well, Shimasa, please announce it!
(SPEAKER_00): The best obi in Japan!
(SPEAKER_14): Finally, after all of this...
(SPEAKER_14): The best obi in Japan will be decided in December!
(SPEAKER_01): The game has started.
(SPEAKER_16): I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
(SPEAKER_01): Announcement!
(SPEAKER_01): Please!
(SPEAKER_00): The best obi in Japan is...
(SPEAKER_01): Hakata obi!
(SPEAKER_13): Oh no!
(SPEAKER_13): Thank you very much!
(SPEAKER_05): Why?
(SPEAKER_05): I thought...
(SPEAKER_05): I thought you were wonderful in every way.
(SPEAKER_05): You were wonderful in every way!
(SPEAKER_05): I thought you had a good sense of balance.
(SPEAKER_05): I liked the way you could close your eyes.
(SPEAKER_13): I'm happy you could show your charm.
(SPEAKER_13): But you're all wonderful in your own ways.
(SPEAKER_13): I hope you can experience everything you have.
(SPEAKER_10): I'm sorry to say this, but you're all wonderful in your own ways.
(SPEAKER_05): I'm sorry.
(SPEAKER_05): That's right.
(SPEAKER_05): West-born people are the best.
(SPEAKER_05): What? Are you saying that we are West-born people?
(SPEAKER_05): Well...
(SPEAKER_05): West-born people!
(SPEAKER_05): No, no, no.
(SPEAKER_04): You are going back halfway.
(SPEAKER_14): Congratulations on your new job, Mr. Osakabe, who is the best obi in Japan.
(SPEAKER_14): Let's move on to...
(SPEAKER_14): Star's Obi Selection!
(SPEAKER_04): Wow!
(SPEAKER_04): We asked the stars who love obi how they choose their obi and how they choose their obi.
(SPEAKER_04): By the way, how do you choose your obi, Ms. Izumi?
(SPEAKER_06): I choose my kimono according to my family and my obi according to my family.
(SPEAKER_04): How do you choose your obi, Mr. Shima?
(SPEAKER_04): I've never chosen my obi.
(SPEAKER_04): I've never bought an obi.
(SPEAKER_04): No, I don't.
(SPEAKER_04): But it was helpful.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you.
(SPEAKER_04): So, this time we got into choosing that star.
(SPEAKER_04): Who is it?
(SPEAKER_04): VTR!
(SPEAKER_04): Alleee!
(SPEAKER_04): Part 2.
(SPEAKER_02): Let's Obi Walk.
(SPEAKER_02): Hello, I'm Komada Kengo, a TVS announcer.
(SPEAKER_02): Today, we're going to look for someone's obi.
(SPEAKER_02): So we came to Aoyama, Tokyo.
(SPEAKER_02): When it comes to obi, there's no one like Hiroshi in the entertainment industry.
(SPEAKER_02): Let's go!
(SPEAKER_07): Good morning.
(SPEAKER_07): Thank you for coming.
(SPEAKER_02): This is Momiji Yamamura.
(SPEAKER_07): Hello.
(SPEAKER_02): She's here with us again with a lovely meal.
(SPEAKER_02): What's this pattern?
(SPEAKER_07): The name is Momiji, and she was born in autumn.
(SPEAKER_07): So, this is a Momiji kimono.
(SPEAKER_07): This part is spring-like and this part is autumn-like.
(SPEAKER_07): This is a kimono she drew in half and half.
(SPEAKER_02): And this obi is...
(SPEAKER_07): This is her mother's obi.
(SPEAKER_02): Speaking of mothers, there is Joko of Mystery and Misa Yamamura.
(SPEAKER_07): This is an obi that her mother always wore.
(SPEAKER_07): This shiny part is called a laden.
(SPEAKER_07): It's an obi that uses the shiny part of the shell's back side.
(SPEAKER_02): There's a shop that sells Momiji-san's clothing, isn't there?
(SPEAKER_07): Yes, it's right here.
(SPEAKER_02): Then, let's go shopping for obi!
(SPEAKER_04): Let's go shopping for obi!
(SPEAKER_14): So, the two of them visited Momiji-san's clothing shop, Tomihiro.
(SPEAKER_14): It opened in the Azuchi-Momoyama period, 444 years ago.
(SPEAKER_14): It's a new clothing shop that has its headquarters in Yamagata.
(SPEAKER_02): What is the point of choosing an obi, Momiji-san?
(SPEAKER_07): First of all, no matter how flashy and gorgeous this drum is,
(SPEAKER_07): it is often only reflected in front of you when you see it on TV,
(SPEAKER_07): so this part is gorgeous.
(SPEAKER_07): There are many patterns here.
(SPEAKER_07): Second of all, when you travel, travel in the countryside, it's quite heavy and tiring.
(SPEAKER_07): It's surprisingly heavy and I get tired easily.
(SPEAKER_07): I'd like to have something light first.
(SPEAKER_07): The third one is...
(SPEAKER_07): I guess it's a front door. I always look at front doors at my previous job.
(SPEAKER_02): You were working for the Asakawa Treasury Bureau, so you were a marser.
(SPEAKER_07): Yes, I was.
(SPEAKER_07): I went to kimonos shops for research, too.
(SPEAKER_02): How many obi are there in total?
(SPEAKER_04): They usually say you should buy three times as many kimonos as obi.
(SPEAKER_04): What? Three times as many kimonos?
(SPEAKER_07): It's deep.
(SPEAKER_07): It's very deep.
(SPEAKER_07): I want to tighten all of them by myself.
(SPEAKER_14): In such a deep obi world,
(SPEAKER_14): what obi will Momiji-san choose?
(SPEAKER_07): I like black, so I chose black.
(SPEAKER_07): But I think gold is a bit too much.
(SPEAKER_07): This is a bit empty.
(SPEAKER_07): This is the one we saw before.
(SPEAKER_07): Yes, there are many of them.
(SPEAKER_07): It's a little dark.
(SPEAKER_07): It's gorgeous.
(SPEAKER_07): It's really rare.
(SPEAKER_07): It's rare and light.
(SPEAKER_07): It's light.
(SPEAKER_07): It's a front view, so you don't have to worry about it.
(SPEAKER_07): All of them have patterns.
(SPEAKER_02): Front view means all of them have patterns.
(SPEAKER_07): I see.
(SPEAKER_07): Even if you want to decorate it,
(SPEAKER_07): even if you move it, you will never feel lonely in the middle.
(SPEAKER_02): I'll talk about the price later.
(SPEAKER_02): How much is this?
(SPEAKER_07): How much is the price of this?
(SPEAKER_07): This dress is really special.
(SPEAKER_07): It's 498,000 yen.
(SPEAKER_07): It's great.
(SPEAKER_07): And...
(SPEAKER_02): It's a unique design.
(SPEAKER_07): It's very unique.
(SPEAKER_02): It has an alphabet.
(SPEAKER_07): If you take it out...
(SPEAKER_02): It has an obi.
(SPEAKER_07): It's red.
(SPEAKER_07): This one has red and green in it, so you can adjust it.
(SPEAKER_07): You can wear it like this.
(SPEAKER_07): It's very cool.
(SPEAKER_07): I'm looking forward to it.
(SPEAKER_07): I like this one.
(SPEAKER_07): I'm looking for other similar ones.
(SPEAKER_14): After that, Momiji-san chose many different obi.
(SPEAKER_07): I want to go on a date.
(SPEAKER_14): She chose...
(SPEAKER_07): I like this one. I'll choose this one.
(SPEAKER_14): She chose this one, which has a modern design and is characterized by the alphabet.
(SPEAKER_14): It's a buckle obi.
(SPEAKER_14): It's 858,000 yen.
(SPEAKER_07): 858,000 yen?
(SPEAKER_02): That's amazing.
(SPEAKER_07): Ta-da!
(SPEAKER_02): It's totally unexpected.
(SPEAKER_02): It's totally different.
(SPEAKER_07): It's wonderful.
(SPEAKER_07): It's classic and nice.
(SPEAKER_07): It's modern and fashionable.
(SPEAKER_07): What do you think?
(SPEAKER_02): It's cool.
(SPEAKER_07): It's wonderful.
(SPEAKER_02): It's like a new kind of fusion.
(SPEAKER_02): That's right.
(SPEAKER_02): I would like to buy one more.
(SPEAKER_14): Thank you.
(SPEAKER_14): They met a nice obi and a satisfied Momiji.
(SPEAKER_14): And what did they come for?
(SPEAKER_02): They came to Ginza.
(SPEAKER_07): So, I think obi is a must-have in fashionable cities.
(SPEAKER_14): Iseiyoshi, founded in Meiji.
(SPEAKER_14): Yukio Mishima and Masako Shirasu also loved this clothing store, which represents Ginza.
(SPEAKER_07): This is gorgeous.
(SPEAKER_07): Is this Tatsumura-san's clothing?
(SPEAKER_07): Yes, it is.
(SPEAKER_07): It's a popular brand.
(SPEAKER_07): This swan is very rare.
(SPEAKER_07): The color of the swan is very lively.
(SPEAKER_07): It's amazing.
(SPEAKER_02): She's chosen as a star.
(SPEAKER_02): I love her.
(SPEAKER_07): I love her so much that I can't stop looking at her.
(SPEAKER_07): She's so charming.
(SPEAKER_07): There are many men's outfits.
(SPEAKER_02): This is for men.
(SPEAKER_07): It's nice.
(SPEAKER_07): It's rare to see so many.
(SPEAKER_07): Mr. Komada, you should try it.
(SPEAKER_08): Is it a kimono?
(SPEAKER_07): It will be your usual image.
(SPEAKER_09): I like a kimono.
(SPEAKER_07): You all wear black and white clothes, so I think you'll look fashionable in kimono.
(SPEAKER_07): I think she knows kimonos.
(SPEAKER_14): Momiji-san suggested this.
(SPEAKER_14): Here it is.
(SPEAKER_14): She decided to wear this obi.
(SPEAKER_14): It's a little Madonna, but does it suit her?
(SPEAKER_07): Look!
(SPEAKER_07): Wow! How nice!
(SPEAKER_02): It looks like this.
(SPEAKER_07): It's good. It suits you.
(SPEAKER_02): This obi is...
(SPEAKER_07): It gives you the image of being tough.
(SPEAKER_02): On the contrary, it's a reliable existence.
(SPEAKER_07): It's cool.
(SPEAKER_07): It's really good.
(SPEAKER_02): I want to walk Ginza with it.
(SPEAKER_07): I want to go on a date with it.
(SPEAKER_14): Date.
(SPEAKER_14): Obi and Gimbra.
(SPEAKER_14): It looks fun.
(SPEAKER_02): Gimbra?
(SPEAKER_02): What's next?
(SPEAKER_02): It is.
(SPEAKER_02): We visited Azabu Juba.
(SPEAKER_02): Let's go to another clothing shop.
(SPEAKER_07): I'd like to go there, but first let's go to a shop that serves good tea.
(SPEAKER_02): Let's go to Omiji.
(SPEAKER_14): They came to this shop, which is a luxury shop, using hamburgers.
(SPEAKER_02): Let's eat.
(SPEAKER_07): It's chestnut itself.
(SPEAKER_07): It looks delicious.
(SPEAKER_07): It's sweet.
(SPEAKER_07): It's really chestnut sweet.
(SPEAKER_02): It has a strong aroma.
(SPEAKER_02): Yes.
(SPEAKER_02): How many kimonos and obi do you have?
(SPEAKER_07): I have about 800 kimonos and about 300 obi.
(SPEAKER_07): Including grandmothers, mothers and children.
(SPEAKER_07): So you really have obi.
(SPEAKER_14): Here is the obi quiz.
(SPEAKER_14): What did Momiji do when she received her mother's obi?
(SPEAKER_14): Yashiki, please answer in 5 seconds.
(SPEAKER_04): I was happy and stayed up all night for 5 days!
(SPEAKER_07): The answer is...
(SPEAKER_07): I paid a lot of inheritance tax, too.
(SPEAKER_02): Inheritance tax?
(SPEAKER_02): Is obi your property?
(SPEAKER_07): It's my property. Cars and houses are called limited-use items.
(SPEAKER_07): When you get older, you will be almost zero.
(SPEAKER_07): Especially if it has a laden or a lot of gold and silver and is of famous writers,
(SPEAKER_07): I think it's close to being treated as an art piece.
(SPEAKER_07): It's like the price of buying it.
(SPEAKER_07): So it costs a lot of money.
(SPEAKER_02): How much did it cost you?
(SPEAKER_07): It was a lot of money.
(SPEAKER_02): It's a lot of money.
(SPEAKER_07): That's right. The tax rate was pretty high at the time.
(SPEAKER_02): Tax for the family.
(SPEAKER_07): Yes.
(SPEAKER_02): And you have a lot of obi, Momiji-san.
(SPEAKER_02): Is there a match obi you wear when you date a man you like?
(SPEAKER_07): This is the match obi.
(SPEAKER_02): Is it?
(SPEAKER_02): Today's obi?
(SPEAKER_02): Yes, it is.
(SPEAKER_02): She brought it for me.
(SPEAKER_14): It seems like their hearts are already connected.
(SPEAKER_02): Only by obi.
(SPEAKER_02): Why did you suddenly...
(SPEAKER_02): make it look so good?
(SPEAKER_02): Well, it's completely dark now, isn't it?
(SPEAKER_02): Yes!
(SPEAKER_07): I love Shirogane, and there's another great obi-wear shop here.
(SPEAKER_02): This is it.
(SPEAKER_14): This is an antique clothing store centered on antiques.
(SPEAKER_14): The owner, Yukiko Ikeda, is a person who makes kimonos and obi.
(SPEAKER_14): Here we go again with the obi quiz.
(SPEAKER_14): Who is the famous person who is holding the obi?
(SPEAKER_14): Setsuko Izumi, please answer in 5 seconds.
(SPEAKER_14): Who is it?
(SPEAKER_03): What was the question?
(SPEAKER_06): I'm sorry.
(SPEAKER_03): The answer is...
(SPEAKER_03): It's impossible in 5 seconds.
(SPEAKER_07): It's Ikko.
(SPEAKER_07): Excuse me.
(SPEAKER_07): No problem.
(SPEAKER_07): It's nice.
(SPEAKER_07): The colour is beautiful.
(SPEAKER_07): It's a good colour.
(SPEAKER_07): I was thinking of giving it to the viewers.
(SPEAKER_07): That's a good idea.
(SPEAKER_07): It's a horse-and-horse race.
(SPEAKER_09): That's wonderful.
(SPEAKER_02): A horse-and-horse race.
(SPEAKER_09): I think this is good.
(SPEAKER_09): I think it's a good choice.
(SPEAKER_09): Is it?
(SPEAKER_09): I like that it's not too casual or too dressy.
(SPEAKER_07): I'll give this to the viewers as a gift.
(SPEAKER_14): So, this is it.
(SPEAKER_14): A Nagoya obi with a Bassho leaf pattern.
(SPEAKER_14): I'll give it to the viewers as a gift.
(SPEAKER_07): Everyone, let's have a wonderful obi life with this obi!
(SPEAKER_14): Thank you.
(SPEAKER_14): We will announce how to make it later,
(SPEAKER_14): so please watch it without watching it now.
(SPEAKER_02): Let's walk around in obi.
(SPEAKER_02): That's it for today.
(SPEAKER_02): See you in another city.
(SPEAKER_07): Goodbye.
(SPEAKER_07): There is a delicious eel restaurant near here.
(SPEAKER_02): Is that so?
(SPEAKER_02): Why do you want to talk and feel good?
(SPEAKER_07): I will definitely accompany you.
(SPEAKER_07): I'm happy. Then drink chikotto.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you very much.
(SPEAKER_04): That's amazing.
(SPEAKER_04): Momiji Yamamura.
(SPEAKER_04): There was no design like obi.
(SPEAKER_05): She could do anything, like writing English.
(SPEAKER_04): Interesting.
(SPEAKER_04): She was free to do anything, even skateboarding.
(SPEAKER_04): That's right.
(SPEAKER_04): She could do anything. She was very stylish.
(SPEAKER_04): Well, Ms. Izumi, how was it?
(SPEAKER_06): I was able to show various obi.
(SPEAKER_06): Yes, it's nice.
(SPEAKER_04): It's nice.
(SPEAKER_04): Yes.
(SPEAKER_04): Well, we talked about giving viewers presents by Ms. Momiji.
(SPEAKER_04): She will really give you an obi!
(SPEAKER_04): Wow!
(SPEAKER_04): That's great!
(SPEAKER_04): If you want that obi, please write the keyword announced in the show and send it to the program.
(SPEAKER_04): Then I will do it. First of all, please give me the first keyword.
(SPEAKER_04): Yes, the first keyword is...
(SPEAKER_04): It is O.
(SPEAKER_04): I see.
(SPEAKER_04): It is O in one word.
(SPEAKER_14): The remaining keywords and how to apply will be announced in the program after this, so don't miss it.
(SPEAKER_14): The next segment is...
(SPEAKER_04): First time to tie up!
(SPEAKER_04): It's serious for young people to tie up.
(SPEAKER_04): In this segment, we'll see if young people can tie up by themselves.
(SPEAKER_04): I see.
(SPEAKER_05): Some say you can't lose a match even if you tie up.
(SPEAKER_04): I won't say it.
(SPEAKER_04): This time, we're inviting young female talents to TBS for a fake project.
(SPEAKER_04): And now, they will try to wear obimaki without any clothes.
(SPEAKER_04): I see.
(SPEAKER_14): The challenger is the model, Ms. Kawabata Yuri, 19 years old.
(SPEAKER_04): Ms. Tomizawa, please tell us if you are wearing obimaki correctly or not.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you for your time.
(SPEAKER_04): Ms. Izumi, how about you? Did you wear obimaki correctly when you first wore it?
(SPEAKER_06): I think I was about 13 years old when I first wore it.
(SPEAKER_06): I think I was able to wear it because I was at that age.
(SPEAKER_04): It must be difficult for you to wear it for the first time, right?
(SPEAKER_06): Yes, you have to get used to it.
(SPEAKER_04): Yes.
(SPEAKER_04): But we would like you to be interested in this, so we would like you to watch it.
(SPEAKER_06): Please watch it for young people.
(SPEAKER_04): Please do.
(SPEAKER_04): So let's call the challenger in the US room.
(SPEAKER_04): Let's go.
(SPEAKER_04): Ms. Kawabata!
(SPEAKER_04): Ms. Kawabata, can you hear me?
(SPEAKER_04): Yes.
(SPEAKER_04): Nice to meet you. I'm Yasuke from New York.
(SPEAKER_04): Nice to meet you. I'm Shimasu.
(SPEAKER_04): Nice to meet you.
(SPEAKER_04): What is your job today?
(SPEAKER_16): My job is a kimono maker.
(SPEAKER_04): Actually, you will have to wrap the obi yourself.
(SPEAKER_04): Okay.
(SPEAKER_16): What? By myself?
(SPEAKER_04): Yes. I think you were asked differently.
(SPEAKER_04): But your job today is to wrap the obi yourself.
(SPEAKER_16): I've never done it before.
(SPEAKER_04): Okay. You've never done it before?
(SPEAKER_16): No, I haven't.
(SPEAKER_04): Are you not confident?
(SPEAKER_16): I don't know.
(SPEAKER_04): You have 15 minutes to do it.
(SPEAKER_16): What? No way!
(SPEAKER_04): If you do it right and lose your obi, you'll get one minute.
(SPEAKER_04): Do your best.
(SPEAKER_03): I'll do it.
(SPEAKER_04): Are you sure?
(SPEAKER_03): I'll give you one more chance.
(SPEAKER_03): But we're busy filming now.
(SPEAKER_03): Okay.
(SPEAKER_03): So please do your best and lose your obi.
(SPEAKER_03): Please.
(SPEAKER_03): Okay.
(SPEAKER_04): We have people who are busy filming at this late hour.
(SPEAKER_14): Please do your best.
(SPEAKER_14): I'll do my best.
(SPEAKER_14): What an obimaki needs is...
(SPEAKER_14): obi or obijime, and so on.
(SPEAKER_14): Here are five tools.
(SPEAKER_14): And the most difficult part of all,
(SPEAKER_14): is the back part of the obi called otaiko.
(SPEAKER_14): Can a girl of today roll an obi correctly?
(SPEAKER_04): Here we go.
(SPEAKER_04): The first obimaki.
(SPEAKER_04): Let's go!
(SPEAKER_03): Part 3, start!
(SPEAKER_16): Start? No, no, no!
(SPEAKER_04): We can't hear their voices now.
(SPEAKER_16): I've seen this before.
(SPEAKER_04): Have you seen it?
(SPEAKER_16): Grandma is dancing.
(SPEAKER_16): I've seen it a lot.
(SPEAKER_16): We don't know it at all.
(SPEAKER_16): What's going on?
(SPEAKER_03): There are so many parts.
(SPEAKER_03): That's later.
(SPEAKER_16): Are they all necessary?
(SPEAKER_04): Is that so?
(SPEAKER_04): Let's bring it up.
(SPEAKER_04): Is that so?
(SPEAKER_04): Why is there so much?
(SPEAKER_16): Are there so many kinds of women?
(SPEAKER_16): This is bad.
(SPEAKER_16): Is this the back?
(SPEAKER_04): Isn't it?
(SPEAKER_04): Is it for the back of the headwear?
(SPEAKER_15): In the end, it is for the back.
(SPEAKER_15): Is it for finishing?
(SPEAKER_15): Yes, it is for finishing.
(SPEAKER_04): You don't wear it in the beginning of the game.
(SPEAKER_03): I made a mistake.
(SPEAKER_16): Doesn't it look different from the usual one?
(SPEAKER_04): It doesn't look like that.
(SPEAKER_04): It doesn't look different.
(SPEAKER_16): It's called Nagoyobi.
(SPEAKER_11): Nagoyobi?
(SPEAKER_11): Yes.
(SPEAKER_16): I don't know.
(SPEAKER_11): She only saw what was closed.
(SPEAKER_05): There is another one.
(SPEAKER_05): A thin purple cloth.
(SPEAKER_05): That's right.
(SPEAKER_16): That's right.
(SPEAKER_16): Yes, you can't do it alone.
(SPEAKER_11): You look good.
(SPEAKER_05): How long did it take you to do it alone?
(SPEAKER_15): It usually takes 10 or 15 minutes for everyone, from kimonos to outfits.
(SPEAKER_15): But before the war, any clumsy person came here by themselves.
(SPEAKER_04): Every day.
(SPEAKER_04): I see.
(SPEAKER_04): What are you doing?
(SPEAKER_04): You're using oil techniques.
(SPEAKER_15): You make a shape at first.
(SPEAKER_11): He is wonderful and wise.
(SPEAKER_11): The shape of the result is good.
(SPEAKER_11): It's close to Kitsunia.
(SPEAKER_16): What should I do?
(SPEAKER_16): I'm wondering if I can put it in here and see if it will work.
(SPEAKER_16): I was surprised when it came out.
(SPEAKER_11): Do you want to tie it in front and turn it back?
(SPEAKER_16): I see.
(SPEAKER_16): But it looks like it.
(SPEAKER_04): Does it look like it?
(SPEAKER_04): Kawabata-san, we will stop the broadcast here. You have five minutes left. Please do your best by yourself.
(SPEAKER_04): We will wait for you in the studio.
(SPEAKER_04): Thank you. I will do my best.
(SPEAKER_14): Will Kawabata-san be able to restore her enthusiasm and make the right otaiko?
(SPEAKER_11): When young girls wear kimonos and walk in the city,
(SPEAKER_11): old ladies who wear kimonos and walk in the city complain about it,
(SPEAKER_11): or scold them,
(SPEAKER_11): or tie their obi around their necks.
(SPEAKER_11): Oh, my!
(SPEAKER_11): They call it kimono patrol.
(SPEAKER_11): It's a trend now and then.
(SPEAKER_11): Oh, my!
(SPEAKER_14): Speaking of obi, it's 5 minutes to wait for Mr. Kawabata.
(SPEAKER_04): It's now 3 pm.
(SPEAKER_04): It is!
(SPEAKER_04): Did you manage to wrap it up nicely, Mr. Carbos?
(SPEAKER_04): Yes!
(SPEAKER_04): What do you think?
(SPEAKER_05): No, I'll put all my fortune on it.
(SPEAKER_04): A miracle may be happening.
(SPEAKER_04): Let's have Mr. Carbos come back when he arrives at the studio.
(SPEAKER_04): Come in!
(SPEAKER_04): Come in, come in.
(SPEAKER_04): Can we see your back?
(SPEAKER_04): Yes.
(SPEAKER_04): Okay, then!
(SPEAKER_04): Professor Tomizawa, please give us your judgment!
(SPEAKER_15): It's not approved, but I want to give you an effort award.
(SPEAKER_04): You admit your effort.
(SPEAKER_04): Please look forward and look down.
(SPEAKER_04): How was it?
(SPEAKER_16): It's a perfect score for me.
(SPEAKER_04): Is it a perfect score?
(SPEAKER_16): But I used what I used.
(SPEAKER_04): It's a little gross than I imagined.
(SPEAKER_16): Gross?
(SPEAKER_04): It's a mess in the back.
(SPEAKER_03): If you don't tie it properly, it will be like this.
(SPEAKER_15): I don't think it's a new fashion.
(SPEAKER_11): She's kind.
(SPEAKER_11): The back is not bad.
(SPEAKER_11): If you arrange it a little more, it will be better.
(SPEAKER_03): It may be possible to make it fashionable.
(SPEAKER_11): Why do you all suddenly talk like that?
(SPEAKER_11): The front is not good.
(SPEAKER_11): It's not nice to tie a ribbon in such a place.
(SPEAKER_14): Now, let's ask Tomizawa sensei how to tie an obi correctly.
(SPEAKER_14): First of all, to use it later, tie the obi-makura with an obi-yane.
(SPEAKER_14): Then, tie the obi around your waist and adjust the position so that a pattern comes to your stomach.
(SPEAKER_15): At this time, it is better for this pattern to go a little to the left than in the middle.
(SPEAKER_14): In this way, it seems to be a stylish obi above one rank.
(SPEAKER_14): Next, put an obi board between the obi of the stomach part.
(SPEAKER_15): An obi board is a board that does not wrinkle here.
(SPEAKER_15): I see, it becomes a pin.
(SPEAKER_15): It becomes a pin.
(SPEAKER_14): And from here, it's finally time for making a drum.
(SPEAKER_15): I'll make a hole in the short one with this long one.
(SPEAKER_15): You put it through and tighten it.
(SPEAKER_08): How do you make a handle?
(SPEAKER_15): The drum is here.
(SPEAKER_15): You put this pillow in this position.
(SPEAKER_04): I see, that's why it's inserted here.
(SPEAKER_04): Oh, everyone had it inserted.
(SPEAKER_15): This is the string of the pillow.
(SPEAKER_15): Take out only the string and tie it here.
(SPEAKER_04): The cloth you wrapped doesn't tie yet, does it?
(SPEAKER_15): Yes, we make the shape of a drumstick here.
(SPEAKER_15): I put the tip of the string in here.
(SPEAKER_15): The tip of the string is about the middle finger and it is beautiful.
(SPEAKER_15): Adjust the shape.
(SPEAKER_14): And then, push the excess end of the obi through the otaiko and fold it in.
(SPEAKER_14): At this time, fasten the obi tightly so that the otaiko does not collapse.
(SPEAKER_15): The correct way of tying is to tie it somehow hexagonally.
(SPEAKER_14): And finally...
(SPEAKER_15): This is obiage, but fold it in half and fold it in half again.
(SPEAKER_15): I think this is how you fold it so it looks pretty.
(SPEAKER_15): This is soft and good.
(SPEAKER_04): I see, it's miscellaneous.
(SPEAKER_15): Soft, yes.
(SPEAKER_11): The thinness is...
(SPEAKER_15): Oh, it closes.
(SPEAKER_15): Yes, it closes.
(SPEAKER_11): Putting out a little obiage or closing it all is kikonashi.
(SPEAKER_15): I see.
(SPEAKER_15): Here, it's done.
(SPEAKER_15): Like this.
(SPEAKER_04): Wow!
(SPEAKER_04): It's done!
(SPEAKER_04): How do you like it, Kawabata-san?
(SPEAKER_14): I can't do it by myself.
(SPEAKER_14): Kawabata-san and everyone watching, please have a wonderful obi life from tomorrow!
(SPEAKER_04): Now, please announce the second keyword of the viewer's gift!
(SPEAKER_04): The second keyword is...
(SPEAKER_04): It's beauty!
(SPEAKER_04): I thought so!
(SPEAKER_04): And with that...
(SPEAKER_04): The keyword is...
(SPEAKER_04): And with that, it's two words!
(SPEAKER_14): And with that,
(SPEAKER_14): Please change the keyword you've announced into two words,
(SPEAKER_14): And apply for it as you see it!
(SPEAKER_14): One person will receive the obi Momiji-san has chosen,
(SPEAKER_14): And one hundred people will receive a special sticker with the show logo!
(SPEAKER_04): It's time to say goodbye.
(SPEAKER_04): Mr. Oshima, did you learn about obi?
(SPEAKER_04): I learned a lot.
(SPEAKER_04): I'll wear this for the next episode of Manzai no Isshou.
(SPEAKER_04): It'd be cool to do a grandpa joke with this.
(SPEAKER_04): Right?
(SPEAKER_04): Yes.
(SPEAKER_04): I thought it'd be cool.
(SPEAKER_04): See you next episode!
(SPEAKER_04): Obi life!
