Erina Iwata, who left Nippon Television at the end of March, will appear on the variety show "Odoru! Sanma Goten!!" (on the same network) airing at 8 PM on April 21st.
This will be Iwata's first appearance as a freelance announcer, and despite having just graduated from her role as MC on "Shuichi," she will soon be appearing alongside the show's main MC, Hideyuki Nakayama. Nakayama expressed his bewilderment, saying, "We gave her a grand send-off last week. It was a touching moment at the end, with her father's letter bringing her to tears, and now we're seeing each other again this week," to which Iwata responded with a wry smile, "It's still a little awkward."
The theme for the day was "A Presentation of Useful Hobbies." Iwata, who said that learning abacus made him good at splitting the bill for meals, was unable to fulfill a certain request from Akashiya Sanma and was asked to "apologize asローラ (Laura)." Iwata immediately got laughs with an impression of her.
Other cast members include Nanami Ito, Ryosuke Irie, Yuki Iwai from "Haraichi", Noel Kawashima from "Travis Japan", Yumi Kawada, Yuria Suzuki, Narumi Takahashi, Rie Tanaka, Hikohiro, Toshiro Hirose, and RIKU from "NiziU".
