"KuroNadal" (TV Asahi, Tuesdays at 1:58 AM *Kanto local broadcast), hosted by Kuro-chan of the comedy trio "Yasuda Dai Circus" and Nadal of the comedy duo "Korokoro Chiki Chiki Peppers," aired on March 17th as a return to its roots, with the two "strongest mental" comedians answering viewers' problems. In reality, it was a prank on Kuro-chan, intended to bring out his "good side" through problems created by the staff, but it ended with both of them in tears.
A 39-year-old office worker shared a problem: "My trusted work partner and my new boss, who was transferred to our department, didn't get along, and we were separated in what felt like a demotion. I've been feeling lethargic ever since."
This problem was also prepared by the staff. As the content reminded them of their relationship, Kuro-chan shed tears and gave advice, relating it to their current situation: "Someday, when we've both improved our skills, we can do something together again. I think it would be a waste not to separate ourselves for a while in order to perform on a higher stage." He then confessed his true feelings, saying, "It's tough, though."
Then, with tears in his eyes, Nadal said, "That really hit home. If I can get stronger, I can do it," showing his frustration, to which Kuro-chan replied, "You can definitely get stronger." Kuro-chan continued, "If I take a different path for a while, I might be able to do it again somewhere. But the time I spent together wasn't a lie."
