Episode content:
This episode is set in Tondabayashi, located in southern Osaka. The Jinaichō district in particular retains its Edo-period townscape and has been selected as one of Japan's 'Top 100 Roads.' The area is also dotted with cultural and natural highlights, including Taki-dani Fudo-son — one of Japan's three great Fudo temples — and Savor Farm, where visitors can enjoy agricultural experiences.
The guests are the 'W Jinai' — Jinnai Takanori and Jinai Tomonori! Their names differ by just one character, fueling rumors that they might be relatives, but they share absolutely no connection. What's more, their names are frequently mixed up online, and Takanori laments, 'It's always negative news where we get confused.' Meanwhile, both are meeting Kuroda for the first time. Takanori, a huge fan of the NHK morning drama Boogie Woogie in which Kuroda appeared, is thrilled: 'I've always wanted to meet you.'
