The new future of television, 'ABEMA', will broadcast a new kind of romance talk variety show, 'Conceited Men's Romance Talk Show: Does She Already Like Me?', starting Saturday, April 4, 2026, at 10:00 PM. In this show, conceited men who interpret casual words and actions of women as 'signs of interest' speak their true minds.
This program is a romance talk variety show featuring 'conceited men' who interpret minor actions by women as, 'Could she be into me?' Niiyama from Sayaka, Den from Linda Color∞, Hirotsugu Otsu from Kitsune, Naotaka Yokokawa, and Taiga Harada from Biscuit Brothers gather in a 'men-only locked room' to candidly share their 'conceited episodes' experienced at drinking parties, on LINE, SNS, and co-starring sets.
Meanwhile, Sayaka Okada and Kasumi Mori monitor the situation from a separate room, unbeknownst to the men. They sharply cut down the confident 'she likes me' remarks of the men with real, female-perspective opinions. Are the actions the men believed to be 'confirmed love' truly signs of affection, or just kindness and social politeness? They judge the romance borderlines of the Reiwa era.
Furthermore, it ultimately reveals real conceited episodes with co-stars using real names, such as 'that approach from a popular female entertainer.' As the talk heats up, there are scenes where the men's delusions spiral out of control in unexpected directions.
The program also thoroughly verifies men's 'misunderstandings' through street interviews and female surveys. We deliver a new kind of romance talk variety show that highlights the gap between male romanticism and the harsh reality of women's true feelings.
Prior to the broadcast, Niiyama commented, 'The highlight is the process starting from common male-perspective occurrences, and ending with everyone building up the delusion as if it were reality.' Mori stated, 'I realized, so this is how conceit is born.' Okada reflected on the recording, saying, 'It felt like I was watching an unknown world the whole time (laughs).' (*Excerpts.

'Conceited Men's Romance Talk Show: Does She Already Like Me?' will be broadcast on 'ABEMA' from 10:00 PM on Saturday, April 4, 2026. Please look forward to it.

――Please share your thoughts on the recording.
Talking about romance itself allowed everyone to happily fantasize, making it a very enjoyable time. I felt how fun it is to mutually affirm each other's delusions, and it was interesting how everyone gradually got into it, eventually saying absurd things by the end.
――What is the highlight of the show?
The highlight is the process that starts from relatable things from a male perspective, which grows bigger and bigger, and ends with everyone collectively treating the delusion as reality. There's a certain pleasure in declaring something and having it affirmed, so it was truly a fun time.

――Please share your thoughts on the recording.
It felt like I was continuously watching an unknown world (laughs). I kept thinking, 'Are they serious?!'. I thought men's way of speaking changes so much depending on whether women are present or not, and I was surprised to learn that my own casual actions could lead to misunderstandings from the other party.
――What is the highlight of the show?
The biggest point is how differently men and women see things. Men think this way, while women...
