11／12 Updated! Today is to answer the enquiries of you all!
・I want to know the one-month lineup of appearance of the athletes.
⇒There are various restrictions... It is difficult to make it currently.
We shall try best to release the lineup as soon as possible. Thanks for your understanding.
・Do Master Aiba have the preparatory meeting with the athletes?
⇒I do not judge from the conclusion. Master Aiba and the athlete guests first meet at the studio.
They meet and greet each other, that's it. They talk about various things during filming! This is the situation.
With this, [Master Aiba and the athlete guests] talk in a fresh atmosphere, and it is an exciting atmosphere!
・To what extent does Master Aiba know about the information of the athletes who appear.
⇒Of course, we explain to Master, for instance, the results of the main games, and the rules of the competition which the guest attends.
We deliver information to such extent as not to be rude to the athletes. It would be rude if we do not even know the game rules.
It would be rude if we do not know whether an athlete will appear in the Olympics.
But, we only deliver the information to such extent. The reason is the same as above.
If [Master Aiba] knows too much, [he] can't make the show from the perspective of audience.
・What are the selection criteria of athlete guests?
⇒I have mentioned it before, it depends on whether we have a reason to make it.
The O.A. before the Olympics were related to the athletes who would attend it, right?
After the Olympics, if there is such reason [relationship with other competitions], of course we'll to it,
There are also things which have time limit. There are preceding moments of big competitions. Or lots of moments after the completions complete.
So we do not want to just make episodes for the athletes of major competitions.
Many interesting points of the competitions which are not known to the public are hidden,
From now on, we shall also introduce proactively the athletes having a break [opportunity], and the athletes with hidden capability!
・Not only Master, I want other Johnny's talents to appear as supporters.
⇒There are various considerations... My mind is to avoid it at the moment.
This program is just at its starting point, and this is a program which the athletes are the leading role.
I have a feeling that [including other Johnny's talents] may kind of change the point of discussion of the program. Sorry about this.
When the program continues for a longer period of time, I shall think about it again.
・Are the clothes of Master Aiba-san solely responsible by the stylist?
⇒Honestly, I do not know.
He may have chosen the clothes from several selected clothes,
It may also be prepared by the stylist. I am sorry [I don't know the details].
・How many candidates of athlete guests are there??
⇒If we are talking about "we want you to appear in this program!", there are many candidates.
There are many figure skating players whom we want to appear in this program,
And many professional baseball players.
However.. It is very difficult to actually put it on stage.
There are things which have time limit, and we need to match the filming schedule.
I get various information, then I think about the [right] timing to ask about the intention of the guest candidates.
・What is in the blue bottles at the behind of the studio set?
⇒Same as the yellow bottles, there are sneakers in them! I have confirmed that!!
・I want to watch the unreleased specials!
⇒I have received many such requests. I would like to write about this the other day!
Please wait for a moment.
・Do you invest the same "love" and "passion" to all of your programs?
⇒Sorry. It's private affair... em.. basically it's the same.
I have a stance of "do whatever I can do" in all my programs.
This is also a courtesy to the athletes whom we asked for appearing in the program.
I have "love" to all my programs.
I have also got messages about "I want this athlete to appear in the program!"
So we continue receiving your enquiries! Please do send us your messages!
