The 8-member group timelesz is set to appear on Fuji TV's variety show, Geinojin ga Honki de Kangaeta! Dokkiri GP Fuma to Time Lez ga Paimamiretsu SP, airing at 7:00 p.m. on March 15, 2025. This special episode will feature a segment titled Dokkiri GP Presents timelesz project -AUDITION- Special Edition: Who would be funny if they were pranked among the new members? SP, where original members Kikuike Fuma, Sato Katsutoshi, and Matsushima So will target the 5 new members for the Dokkiri GP Project Audition.
Two days after the announcement of the new timelesz members, the original trio was seen at a campsite in Chiba Prefecture on February 17, 2025. The new members, most of whom are inexperienced with pranks, have been recruited to experience what happens when they are in on the joke, with Kikuike heading the judging panel and Sato and Matsushima serving as the pranksters.
This exciting Dokkiri GP Project Audition marks the culmination of the timelesz project after nearly ten months of auditioning. Among over 18,000 entries, five members were chosen: Teranishi Takuto, Hara Yoshitaka, Hashimoto Masaki, Inomata Shuto, and Shinozuka Daiki. These hopefuls believed they were attending the taping of timelesz's first crown show, unaware they would soon become the target of hilarious antics.
During their time at the campsite, the new members were introduced to a prank called Seconds to timelesz, Paimamiretsu. In this segment, Sato and Matsushima hosted a faux camping project where the five members attempted a quiz about high-end ingredients hidden under silver lids. The unsuspecting participants were met with a surprise, however, when a pie bazooka was revealed, launching pies toward them and leaving them covered in dessert.
The episode promises to deliver laughs and playful interactions, as viewers will get to witness the new members' genuine reactions. Kikuike commented on the opportunity to feature all members of timelesz on the show, stating, "This is something I had been hoping for, and I’m genuinely thrilled it came together so quickly.” He continued, expressing how the experience helped strengthen their bonds: “The recording deepened the connection between members, which I am very thankful for. However, the ending was unexpectedly surprising, to say the least.”
Fans can also look forward to the ever-popular segment Memory Ninja Corps Massaman, where Snow Man's Mukai Koji portrays the memory zero hero Massaman, facing off against an elderly opponent. The playful showdown is set within the expansive Massaman Stadium, bringing new energy to the show.
Viewers will encounter the return of the Seconds to Choo Choo Train, a segment where a remote-controlled mouse train bomb targets someone indisposed in the restroom, adding another layer of humor. The episode will also introduce a unique twist in the Learn Kotowaza with Dokkiri segment, showcasing the "White Feather Ninja" and aiming to entertain with comical potential.
As for the newer members, Kikuike voiced his hope that audiences will appreciate their earnest and pure efforts during their initiation. "I really want people to see not just them being smothered in pies but also the range of expressions they show,” he said, encouraging viewers to pay attention to all members, including the original trio Sato and Matsushima, who showcase their adorable sides as well. “There’s a lot to look forward to!”
Ultimately, with all eyes on the new recruits as they tackle their inaugural group endeavor, the anticipation builds not only for the hilarious pranks but also for the friendships and memories formed during this remarkable debut adventure. The timelesz Dokkiri GP Project Audition promises to be a memorable occasion in the show's history, concluding with an unexpected twist that is sure to have viewers talking for months.
