The new future of television, 'ABEMA (Abema),' broadcasted the #3 episode of the original variety show 'Sell Everything, Let's Start Over' on June 11, 2026 (Thursday) at 11 PM.
'Sell Everything, Let's Start Over' is a 'Variety Show Supporting a Restart of Life' that follows celebrities as they sell all their sellable assets of their own volition and challenge new dreams. When it was broadcast as a special program with all three episodes in February this year, it sparked a huge reaction every week on SNS and online news, leading to its regularization. The MCs, continuing from the previous series, are Ruri Kojima, who showed impressive program progression despite her 2.5-year hiatus from the entertainment industry, and Takashi Yoshimura of Heisei Nobushikobu, who livened up the program with overwhelming stability. The show follows the guests' downfall and comeback in life, their challenge towards new dreams, and their real financial situation.
'If You Go to a TV Station, You Can Get a Lot of Things' - Yakumitsu's 'Collecting Habit' Leaves Ruri Kojima Shocked: 'Do You Feel Like You're Doing Something Wrong?'
In the #3 episode broadcast on June 11 (Thursday), Yakumitsu, a sharp-tongued commentator who also has a face as a rare item collector, appeared in the 'Kojiri (Boastful Selling)' project, where he appraises assets that symbolize himself and reflects on his life. When the program staff visited his home, Yakumitsu, who said, 'It is my mission to collect things that only I can collect,' had an outrageous collection at his home. Items such as Hideki Matsui's 'bean skin' and the 'glass fragments & ring made from the fragments' from when Matsui's beloved car, a 'Chevrolet Van,' hit and broke the glass when parking at Yokohama Stadium, were presented. Furthermore, items such as 'hair that fell out during blow drying' from Takayuki Yamada during the broadcast of the drama 'Long Vacation' and 'half-drunk water' from Shigeo Nagashima's 2001 camp were revealed one after another, shocking the audience. Yakumitsu revealed his surprising collection method, saying, 'If you go to a TV station, you don't have to come back empty-handed. I was able to get a lot of things.' When these collections were brought into the studio, MC Ruri Kojima asked a direct question, 'Do you feel like you're doing something wrong?' In response, Yakumitsu smiled wryly and said, 'Don't ask me seriously,' and let out his true feelings, 'Of course, I feel more guilty,' causing laughter in the studio.

Shocking Appraisal of 'National Star's Hair' and 'Baseball Legend's Half-Drunk Water' in Yakumitsu's Ultra-Rare 'Rare Item Collection'...!
Yakumitsu, who brought in his prized 'Rare Item Collection' for appraisal, was told by the program staff during a home interview that 'Justin Bieber's hair sold for 4,070,000 yen per strand,' and he predicted, 'If we take Justin Bieber's 4,070,000 yen as a basis, Mr. Yamada's hair would be around 4,150,000 yen, right? 'Kimutaku is far superior.' However, when the appraisal by experts was conducted, the amounts presented were '0 yen,' '2,000 yen,' and '0.18 yen (100g for 1,800 yen)' calculated from the unit price per gram of commercial wigs, resulting in a cruel outcome. MC Takashi Yoshimura couldn't help but interject, 'Yakumitsu, please stop it.' Furthermore, for Yakumitsu, who spoke of his vision to 'create a museum' by selling these collections, the program conducted a comprehensive appraisal of the 'entire home collection.' With Yakumitsu setting the borderline amount he thought he could sell at '50,000,000 yen,' expectations rose, but the appraisal amounts presented by the three experts were '1,000,000 yen,' '2,500,000 yen~,' and '500 yen~1,700 yen,' far below expectations. Yakumitsu was stunned by the unexpected appraisal amounts, and as one person who appraised '2,500,000 yen~' piled up a stack of cash worth '5,000,000 yen' on the table, a dramatic development ensued. What decision did Yakumitsu make in front of the 5,000,000 yen in cash in front of him...?! The full story is currently available for free catch-up viewing on ABEMA. Please watch it.
