On March 20, 2025, the popular show Ametalk! will shine a spotlight on some of Japan's most recognizable comedians in its themed episode titled "Fashionable Comedians 2025." The show, hosted by Keno Hagiwara, will feature a lively discussion about the fashion choices that define these entertainers, focusing on their distinctive styles and the evolution of their wardrobes.
This episode is set to showcase an array of notable comedians, including Yasui of Tonikaku Akarui Yasuda, Nadal from Corocorochikipeppers, Usuyuki of Nadegata Comedians, Sugehiroga Rizu, Goto of Yonsenshin, Ito of Ozworld, Takano of Kishitaka, and Kashiwagi of Kakaroni. Each of them is known for their unique fashion sense that has captured the attention of fans across the nation, making them instantly recognizable.
During the show, these comedians will delve into how they arrived at their current styles, discussing inspirations, personal choices, and sometimes even struggles with making their looks more than just mere clothing. For example, Yasui, who owns an impressive collection of 50 pairs of custom-made pants, will share stories about his unusual past wardrobe choice—wearing women's swimwear backwards—which he amusingly recounted during an audition for the British talent show Britain's Got Talent in 2023, where he had to adapt to the local trends and preferences.
Nadal's journey to his current style is equally amusing. He revealed that he now wears a white turtleneck knit, which has become so associated with him that it may be causing a stir in the apparel industry." This departure from typical styles underscores how comedians often shape and influence fashion trends. Sugehiroga Rizu also chimes in on the challenging aspect of fashion maintenance, admitting that the cost of cleaning his hakama is quite high, raising a laugh from his peers.
As the discussion continues, the comedian Kashiwagi expresses his frustration about how people often say he looks like Hannya's Yano. In a lighthearted exchange, Yano counters this by asserting that every wearer of a white suit has personal style preferences that reflect their character.
The show promises more than just discussions; it features an entertaining segment where the comedians swap their outfits with one another. The audience will get a glimpse of what happens when these fashion-forward comedians experience their counterparts' wardrobes. Viewers can look forward to some surprising transformations and possibly hilarious results as personalities clash with clothing styles.
The episode is set to air on March 20, 2025, from 11:15 PM to 12:15 AM on TV Asahi (with some regional exceptions) and will also be available for free streaming on TVer for a limited time. As always, Ametalk! continues to entertain and engage audiences with fresh, impactful content, ensuring that this episode is one not to be missed.
