Akinomaki 41,896 Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) On 02/01/2019 at 19:02, Akinomaki said: Today the 4h special of Shabekuri 007 - the great announcements of Taka's interview with Setouchi Jakucho (where he tells it all - again) led to less than half an hour for that - as to be expected, in 2 parts, 1h26m-1h36m and 2h29m-2h45m in the video http://www.miomio.tv/watch/cc414592/ A longer version of that interview was on another show last week - The statement X https://www.ntv.co.jp/hatsugenx/ http://www.miomio.tv/watch/cc426341/ to prepare for the sequel today: https://www.ntv.co.jp/hatsugenx/articles/220w6s5zinpj0lj2h41.html http://www.miomio.tv/watch/cc427040/ Taka hinted that he'd like to mend the broken relations to mother and brother, and presented his picture book, in collaboration with this IronFist illustrator guy 鉄拳_(お笑い芸人) https://www.ntv.co.jp/topics/articles/195dzik4hdeslqlba4.html he reads his story Edited March 20, 2019 by Akinomaki 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akinomaki 41,896 Posted March 26, 2019 On 13/03/2019 at 10:22, Akinomaki said: Not much about the basho in the wide shows - but Taka with plenty each day. He said more than 100% no to politics and keeps denying that he'll be in the elections, but the media remind us that ex-governor/mayor Hashimoto for Osaka said 20 000% no and then won the elections some days later. Viking hinted that the sports secretary will change into another post and that ideal position for Taka (above Hakkaku) would be just waiting for him. Takatoriki had recently told on a wide show that Taka had earlier thought about going into politics and then changed his mind: "I think now he won't enter anymore." Taka won't be there for the elections, he's lecturing at a university in the US then. But to follow Suzuki in the post of sports secretary, he doesn't have to go into politics, the successor can be selected from a member of the public. The LDP plans are guessed to have Suzuki run at the elections and when he retires from his post at the sports agency, have Taka get the office. http://npn.co.jp/article/detail/69383977/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
