The five-member YouTuber group "Comdot" appeared on ABEMA's 10th anniversary special program "30-Hour Limit Break Festival" in a segment called "Comdot: Escape from the Pie for 30 Hours and Win 100 Million Yen!". Member Yamato caused a stir by revealing his "highest monthly income ever".
"Comdot: Escape Pies for 30 Hours and Win 100 Million Yen!" is a large-scale variety special in which Comdot takes on missions that attack them continuously for 30 hours, with a prize of up to 100 million yen at stake. If they keep clearing the missions, they will win the entire 100 million yen, but each time they fail, they will receive a penalty game such as being hit with a cream cannon or pie, and the prize money will be reduced.
The segment where the highest monthly income ever was revealed was "Coming Out Rock-Paper-Scissors," where the team of comedians, including Kazunobu Kubota of "Torosamon," faced off against each other in a one-shot rock-paper-scissors match over a "forbidden theme." Leader Yamato lost to Kota Nakayama, and the theme presented to him was "highest monthly income ever."
With a determined expression, Yamato confessed the astonishing figure: "...240 million yen." Kubota exclaimed, "That's the equivalent of winning the M-1 Grand Prix 25 times!", and Kominami Hironobu of Sanshiro added, "I've only ever heard of that amount from Hiromi Go!" Yamato clarified that it was the company's (group's) monthly income, but the sheer size of the amount led to a flood of surprised comments from viewers, such as "That's incredible!"
In another segment, legendary YouTuber Max Murai made an appearance. The members were excited to see their idol, saying "He's the man of our youth," and when member Gaku asked, "What was your income during your heyday?", Murai revealed, "2.5 to 2.6 billion yen a year. It was incredible back then."
