The new NHK variety show "LIFE! Marvelous SP," hosted by comedian Teruyoshi Uchimura of the comedy duo "Ucchan Nanchan," will be broadcast from 9:30 pm on October 13th. This time, actress Yuumi Kawai will make her first appearance, and new members Hiyori Sakurada and Koshi Mizukami will also appear.
The three skits included are "Nobody Knows," the second installment of the highly acclaimed skit in which Sisonne's Jiro performs an Inoue Yosui imitation; "Little Sister," in which Kawai displays his outstanding acting skills, leaving Uchimura and the other members confused; and "Revenge," in which Koshi Mizukami plays a samurai determined to defeat his enemy, playing a "talkative fiance."
Kawai commented, "I was a little nervous, but Uchimura and all the other performers were really kind, so I enjoyed the recording! I was so engrossed that afterwards I thought, 'I want to practice more.' It's a show I've been watching since I was a student, so I was really happy to be able to appear on it!"
In addition, a special program called "LIFE! Hit Parade" (General TV, every Wednesday) will be broadcast for 10 consecutive weeks starting at 11:00 PM on October 8th, looking back on past "LIFE!" episodes through classic sketches.
