'Netsuben, Tabiben Biyori' Special Site: https://www.otsuka.co.jp/kns/netsuben_tabiben/ Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, hereafter 'Otsuka Pharmaceutical') will launch the 'Netsuben, Tabiben Biyori' (Passionate Speech, Ideal Day for a Travel Bento) project featuring three popular weathercasters currently appearing on the weather program 'Weathernews LiVE' to broadcast the appeal of 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support'. As the first installment of the project, a web movie titled 'Yui Komaki's Netsuben, Tabiben Biyori. Edition' featuring caster Yui Komaki will be released on Wednesday, April 22, 2026. 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support' is a Food for Specified Health Uses that helps improve the dietary habits of those concerned about post-meal blood sugar levels or who tend to eat fatty meals. We have continuously promoted it as a recommended companion for 'Food Travel'—trips where you enjoy delicious meals. In 2025, we released a web movie titled 'Honjitsu, Tabiben Biyori' featuring Yui Komaki, themed around the station bento (tabiben) enjoyed at the start of a journey. In this 'Netsuben, Tabiben Biyori' project, we are expanding the featured station bentos to the Tohoku, Kansai, and Kyushu areas to pass down station bentos to the future, aiming for them to be an independent Japanese 'Registered Intangible Cultural Property' where you can enjoy precious local food cultures in a single box. We will release movies where three weathercasters introduce the charms of their respective local station bentos and 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support'. The first to appear is Yui Komaki from Miyagi Prefecture. She eats her local Miyagi specialty, the 'Wellness Hakuyoken Aburi Engawa Sushi', and reports on its appeal. Although Ms. Komaki usually reports the weather calmly, her passion cannot be stopped when faced with her beloved local ekiben, showing moments full of local love where her dialect naturally slips out. Introduced alongside the ekiben is 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support'. Ms. Komaki gently and carefully explains how its two functions—suppressing the absorption of sugar and fat through the action of dietary fiber (indigestible dextrin) and moderating the rise of post-meal blood sugar and blood triglycerides—support your journey of enjoying food. Seeing Ms. Komaki's passionate talk over the ekiben makes you naturally want to grab some 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support' and go on a food trip. It is a web movie fully packed with such a feeling of happiness. The casters appearing in the second and third installments will be announced sequentially on the official SNS of 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support'. Please look forward to it. ■ Title: 'Yui Komaki's Netsuben, Tabiben Biyori.

Ms. Komaki appears, currently on a trip. A man notices Ms. Komaki sitting on a bench while waiting for her train connection. Taking out her local Miyagi specialty, 'Hakuyoken's Aburi Engawa Sushi', Ms. Komaki mutters, 'The start of a trip is definitely an ekiben, right...' and then speaks to the man: 'Hello. I'm Komaki, an ekiben maniac. I finally met it. The famous ekiben that my hometown Miyagi is proud of, Hakuyoken's Aburi Engawa Sushi!' Ignoring the man's surprise at being suddenly spoken to, Ms. Komaki promotes 'Kenja no Shokutaku' before eating the bento. She shows a cute side, getting so excited that her local dialect pops out, saying, 'With this, I'll enjoy the trip even more!' Next, Ms. Komaki's food report begins. Gazing lovingly at the fatty engawa seasoned with coarse salt, saying, 'It's glossy, fluffy, and adorable,' she takes a big bite and expresses its deliciousness with caster-like words: 'Fat that seems to melt! A 'Too Delicious Warning' is issued!' Furthermore, she enjoys a change of flavor using kelp soy sauce, introducing the 'triangle eating' method where she enjoys the taste of pickled ginger after eating one piece each with coarse salt and kelp soy sauce, smiling and saying, 'This is the Komaki style.' Finally, she finishes it off refreshingly with lime and salt, showing a blissful expression and saying, 'How marvelous!' Having finished eating, Ms. Komaki asks the man who was watching her, 'Oh, do you want some?' The man thought she meant the ekiben, but what Ms. Komaki offered was 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support'. She enthusiastically pitched 'Kenja no Shokutaku Double Support', saying, 'It moderates the rise in post-meal blood sugar and triglycerides, so it's perfect for a trip where you eat delicious things.'
