Happy Birthday! Hamada Masatoshi 50th birthday
serious appreciation surprise!
Um..
Downtown
Matsumoto
My nose hairs;
aren't they amusing?
Yamazaki Hosei
Yes... they are...
It makes me think, "What the hell?"
I think little kids would laugh at it.
.. but I don't think it's amusing.
Yes.
Yeah.
Excuse me
you grew a beard... so we didn't notice...
License
Fujiwara Kazuhiro
Inomoto Takafumi
So you didn't notice the nose hair? How about you, Tanaka?
It was hard to tell.
Then how do I make it noticeable?
It would have been better to not draw the nosehairs in.
It would be better with nothing there..
Cocorico
Endo Shozo
Tanaka Naoki
So today...
Yes!
Hamada-san's
50th birthday is approaching!
Indeed it is.
May 11th Hamada Masatoshi's 50th birthday
Yes, he's 50.
And because of that,
this time everybody...
well.. we usually don't get to do this.
Yes!
but we get this opportunity...
Yes.
so we will give Hamada-san letters of appreciation.
Wow, really...
Express appreciation for Hamada by writing letters
today's event
Um...
we will write them.
These are SERIOUS letters.
Serious!
3 people will read their serious letters to him.
If we tell him what's going on, he'll tell us to stop.
So we used the "beron beron" bar
as the setting.
"Beron beron" bar
Downtown serves as hosts for a bar where
drunk celebrities play games and chat.
Today, Hamada-san thinks he's serving the guests and drinking
and just doing what he usually does.
But, one by one, everybody will read their letters
today's event #2
They will read their letters as a surprise
to Hamada, who believes it's just the usual bar.
and we'll see how it goes.
But Hamada-san will quickly realize that the atmosphere is different.
He will notice.
He will be a little surprised.
I also wrote a letter for Hamada.
This is a very serious letter.
This is serious!
By the way, Endo... You didn't notice my nosehair?
Yes.. I believe it would've been better to not draw attention to them.
Even if you write a letter you should not draw attention to your nose hair.
Okay, Endo failed to play along.
Yes, he failed again.
2 hours prior
2 hours prior to filming
everybody was serious.
Thank-you messages
They put their thankful thoughts into their letters.
Can you write down your feelings smoothly?
Question: Can you write your feelings to Hamada-san smoothly?
If I focus I can.
If I focus, I can.
And this man is no exception.
He has 30 years worth of memories...
They've been a duo for 30 years...
these are his thoughts on it.
Since this is the "Beron Beron" Bar
we have some alcohol prepared.
This would be difficult to do if we were sober.
Tanaka-san is already...
Yes, I've already had some sake.
30 minutes prior
Tanaka has already had a few drinks
That's why your face looked red..
Why?! Why?! What happened?
Since I'm the top batter,
Hamada-san thinks it's the "Beron Beron" Bar.
If I went in very casually
he would become suspicious.
I don't have a set turn,
but I'd like to drink 3 liters.
Downtown's
Gaki no Tsukai
Ya Arahende
Even though it's a little bit...
I got more jobs.
Thank you letters that are "unlike Gaki"
Then, in Hamada's eyes...
And I was able to make a living as a comedian.
A clueless Hamada goes to the studio
Hamada heads to the studio
He changes into the club's hostess
until now he has no doubts.
He changes into the hostess
and so far he has no doubts.
Is it okay if I let it down like this?
Matsumoto also heads to the studio
He's coming out
And I'll just have a little bit of whiskey.
The final rehearsal for this project
the surprise for Hamada begins
They go through a last rehearsal.
Finally the surprise for Hamada begins.
Mimura Rondo
Narrator
A place where only drunks can enter, "Beron Beron Bar".
Tonight, which guests will show up?
Hamada-san, this is your second time
yes
it's amazing to see from this distance
a raw, live atmosphere.
What the hell?
Or your face.
I was just thinking, but what if you grew your hair
and made it look it like that?
Why the hell?
Thats why
I think that's very good.
That's really the-...
Excuse me.
Tanaka, always..
He does this every time.
Why is it that when you drink you don't stop laughing?
Why is it that when you drink, you don't stop laughing?
How much did you have to drink?
Um, yes, well...
I started with a beer
and then I had 7 or 8 glasses of "shōchū".
Tanaka tried to use alcohol to make
himself less suspicious so he wouldn't ruin the surprise.
You had 7 or 8 glasses of "shōchū".
Yes, I had 7 or 8.
No matter what he does his lips will stick out.
This happens whenever he drinks.
His face makes me mad.
Tanaka where will..
Yes
Right here if you don't mind
What will you drink?
Yeah
Let's see...
Beer if you will
Beer?
Yes!
Tanaka's choice for a drink is a good one, right~?
No, wait a second.
Shouldn't water be your preference?
That's right
Why are you drinking?
Well I can't really do this face to face
with me being sober.
Matsumoto drinks whiskey to ease his stress.
with his atmosphere and your face,
can't handle it.
No, no such thing
Start with this Excuse me
Start with this, Excuse me
Excuse me for starting
Best if I have a bit of water
Am I correct in assuming it's okay for you not to drink?
Well is it so wrong for me also to..
not drink?
No
Hamada-san also should start to drink with us.
Previously in the past? we didn't drink during this
During this segment in the past the both of us
Yes
Not at all
What is it?
Til now with that face
Well you, that sort of finished up face
But seriously what if you ran a store(bar)?
Hamada's shop
Have it in Roppongi
Yes?
Hamada's store seriously
Hamada's store seriously?
While looking like this? Thats strange, im telling you
10 minutes since Tanaka entered
taking out the letter is difficult
Tanaka 10 minutes part 2
Tanaka 10 minutes after entering
Revealing the letter is quite difficult.
the small talk carries on too long
The small talk naturally carries on too long
Sort of strange
How many "adult DVDs" (porn) have you watched?
Yes?
How many "adult DVDs" (porn) have you watched?
No no, in my bachelor days
No no, in my Bachelor days
Umm I certainly rented and watched them
He's probably watched a lot. If you put it into piles,
I get it
it would be as high as the buildings in midtown.
20 minutes since Tanaka entered
Finally Tanaka is moving
20 Minutes since arrival
Tanaka is gradually getting to the main point
Carrying out the plan
For me
I love coming to part 3
Yeah
I love coming to this bar
Well, It can be enjoyable
Fully come out
Probably Today
Probably today
This excitement
Becomes a game.... a nightly event
Thats right, aren't you thinking of tonight's game that you're doing?
No the opposite
Hurry up and do it
Well
But I do have something to say
I wrote a letter.
Eh, Whats that?
Is it okay with you Hamada?
What! That's kind of gross!
It's not what you thinking!
What! That's kind of gross!
From me
Not really a game
What type of story?
We are doing a game but,
Your birthday is coming up, right?
AH, that sounds about right
It is soon but,
Yes?
It seems to be asuitable time
It seems to be a suitable time
Seems to be just about right
That's right
I wrote a little
What the hell? How annoying!
Well, that's a matter of fact
Hamada-san would definitely not like it
Ah, I get it
Hamada-san would definitely not like it
Saying things like "That can't be, what's that?!"
Even when it comes to consolations or message of condolence
I don't like having a drunk person read me a letter
Wait with saying such a thing
I fully get it
What am I to do?
It might be refreshing
Is it okay?
What a bad feeling I'm getting... What is this?
Wow this is gross
Excuse me, don't mean to be rude.
he may run to humor...
but today he will be serious
He is a person who falls upon humor
But for today
As a single man
He will expresshis feelings
He will express his feelings
Right inside of here you're going to do it
oh?
He wrote tons
To Hamada-san
The two of us in Cocorico
In front of brats like us you kindly welcomed us
since then it has been 16 years.
25 years old we debuted
Cocorico's debut photo
From that time to this day
You've always been teaching us.
GnT opening act
Hamada-san, do you remember?
When we did the opening, soon after
Hamada-san said to me, "What the hell? Your shoes are a mess."
Hamada-san said to me "What the hell? Your shoes are a mess."
That's what you said.
At that time I loved Doc Martens shoes
and I always wore them.
The bottoms of my shoes were worn out
and no matter how you looked at them they were a mess.
his Doc Martens shoes
But at that time I was having difficulties with making a living.
I owed some debts to a company.
I didn't have the luxury to buy myself new shoes.
And then,
at the next shooting,
Hamada-san said to me, "You're wearing those shoes again?"
"Go buy new shoes!"
You said this half-jokingly.
And then I said, "Ah yes, that's right."
"I should. I'm sorry," I answered.
"Go use this to buy new shoes!"
you said, and then you gave me $200.
Even if I replied with "Oh no, that's too much!"
"It's fine, just go buy them!"
Hamada-san said.
You just gave me the money
and left.
The next morning,
I quickly
bought the exact same Doc Martens shoes.
I bought new Doc Martens shoes
and on the next show
the first thing I did was show Hamada-san my new shoes.
"Thank you very much!
I was able to buy new shoes!"
I said, and when I tried to return the $80 change...
"I don't need it! Use it to buy nice food for yourself!"
said Hamada-san,
and he didn't take the change.
I was
so very happy about Hamada-san buying me new shoes
that I couldn't help it.
Afterwards,
I took very good care of the shoes
and I always
This is pissing me off...
wore those shoes.
This is really irritating...
What happening? It's not this kind of program...
And I always wore the shoes, even in the rain,
even on another TV station
when I fell in the ocean and they became stiff,
I still wore those shoes every single day.
So since then,
little by little,
we were getting more jobs,
I was able to repay my debts,
and I was able to make a living as a comedian.
I felt like the shoes had given me power
and I remember feeling
stronger whenever I wore them.
For me,
on the show,
I felt like I didn't do well
and often that makes me regretful.
Because Matsumoto-san and Hamada-san are with us...
Because Matsumoto-san and Hamada-san are with us,
I feel like I can show a new side of myself that I can't show on different programs.
From when I entered 16 years ago
Isn't that too long?
me being on this show
is something I am still very thankful for.
And from now on, even if it's a small thing,
I will do my best to be with Hamada-san.
I hope I can be useful for you.
From Cocorico's Tanaka Naoki.
I'm sorry.
That was good, but this isn't that kind of program...
Well, excuse me...
That was good, that was good.
Of course it's not that kind of program.
Yeah, that was good...
That was good, I understand, Tanaka...
Usually there are finales, right?
There is 47, 48, 49...
but 50 is a special age.
Really, it is.
But I am really sorry.
That's okay, it's okay, but
let's try to have fun while drinking.
Yes, but 50!
Yes but that was good.
To me, 50 is a finale.
It is indeed a great goal! (50 years old)
After this the thanks continues.
That's already the second time you said that
After
what?
I don't remember
You don't remember?
No memory
Good evening
Welcome to the establishment
Excuse me
Look in his eyes are a bit strange
Things tend to blur for me when I'm laughing and drinking
Without a doubt a bad feeling, weird
It is a bit strong(the vibe)
Now is the first time I've seen him be in such a state
Now for a bit may I do as please?
Fujiwara drank too much, in order to lower the tension a little
Your face is different
Yes
Ghostly white
Your appearance is weird
It's okay not to drink
I don't get your motive for looking like this
That's right, that's right
35 years old, aren't I?
At the beginning
When I was allowed to take part of this show, I was 23 years old
23, right now 35
That's nuts
Well
Even though this year I'll be 36, for me
About Downtown's age...
Downtown-san is 36 years old too
That's Fujiwara right now?
Um actually I wrote a letter
Huh? What? Wait a little.
What is this? What is the point?
If you would listen...
A game, let's play a game
So in other words Fujiwara's feelings
Feelings toward Hamada, right?
A game
I don't matter, let's play games
Seriously have one
A man without skills, who's nervous...
For a clumsy man
using his strength to fumble through the words
Borrowed the strength from the alcohol
However
His feeling of gratitude is for true.
Is it okay to start?
Let me read it for you.
We, License, also
received a spot and became a part of Gaki No Tsukai
Approaching 12 years ago
We have been saved by Hamada-san
We came to Tokyo,
gradually improving in our appearances.
Even though we had trouble with our jobs
our situations couldn't join together in a result
At the same time,
I talked to Inamoto.
"Let's break up License," I said, nervous.
The two of us talked together, and decided to write a report to our company
Hamada-san's lessons to Inamato were invaluable
Of course for meit was Hamada-sanwho helped us
Of course for me it was Hamada-san who helped us
with precious consideration we was saved by
Hamada-san's advice which I would hear from Inamoto
"It's no good if you break up.
Doing a bit more was what made results"
We perfectly realized that the limit we imposed to ourselves was by no means the answer
"Hamada-san is a considerate type of person" was how I thought.
Things about him, the feelings I had inside
If only I tried harder
I would have that spirit
To do more with that important superior
I was able to accomplish with the added pressure
And you made us rethink about continuing to be a duo
Thanks to you
We stopped our decision to break up
And somewhat, we managed to be a duo until today and that became our job
Hamada-san Thank You, License's Fujiwara
This is a punishment
I am
You're weird, what are you doing?
What are you?
What is the purpose of doing that(crying)?
First time a drunk has affected me.
Well, I am truly a fool
There will be a day in which I'll talk like that to Matsumoto-san
Well I have also lightheartedly talked to Fujiwara but I have never heard of this story
Sorry for this
Would you please take it?
Voice is so small now
I'll take it
Isn't he saying you should recieve it?
That's how it should be
Right, uh? Because he's giving it to me.
I'll gratefully take it
Well it's enough to have this
Is that so?
Well, but it's still...
Good work everyone
Thanks for your hard work
Welcome!
You're Inamoto, aren't you?
Excuse the intrusion
Please come in!
Sober sort of vibe
Fujiwara's partner Inamoto
Ah, Inamoto
Thank You
Really, Inamato before doing that sort...
Get a feeling that not the type to drink
Ah, Well I had a bit already
How much have you had?
If I have with water, I have about 3 rounds
That's not exactly over the top at all
So-so amountto join in here
So-so amount to join in here
(He) has drunk a fair sum
Not at all, he has gone quite overboard
Fujiwara has some tolerance
eehhhh
Is that so?
As opposed to you, Imamoto, you're seriously sober
You wanted to be drunk here
I've never seen this guy, nowhere, have more than a round
20 years since only 1 time
He's plastered
What is this all about, already?
No fun at allin this bar
No fun at all in this bar
Wait
From Hamada just came a childish outburst.
'This sake bar is no fun'
'A no good bar...'
That's bad, isn't it?
'A boring Bar'
no, no, no, that's really bad
that's no good... I'm sorry
What are you going to do Inamoto?
Excuse me Matsumoto-san
Yes!
If for a little bit you would let me take out a letter
That's enough already!
What is this really?!!
Are you for real?
You know this is weird
You people made arrangements for this, What is this?
You wrote a lettter you say?
You wrote a letter you say?
If you would I did write a letter
GET TO READIN'!!
Thank you
Being a man who loves Hamada both in his career and private life...
A man who respects him either in public and private...
The sentiments he's feeling are deep.
Even about his felt sentiments
There's still something deep.
Enough already
To Hamada
Congratulations on your 50th Birthday
12 years ago I met Hamada for the first time, a comedian mentor
Til today he has taught me various skills and things
My instructor
In being a tsukomi (straight man)
A form I had no idea how to perform
Honestly
'I really can't do it' was my mindset
With your influence
License at the moment of their debut
The lessons you gave me on being a tsukomi (straight man)
I am truly grateful
If I remember now
The things Hamada did for me
"Think about things like that by yourself." That's what he said about my straight man idea
For the sake of each week, til morning, taught to finely tune my craft
It's my personal cherished fortune
Although privately I struggled with having no money
There was times when I had no food
"If you're starving give me a call"
is what you told me then
Roughly it became every day you'd call to treat
It was at that time Hamada-san instructed me
...But when you're with me, you should eat more
When it was time to eat by myself I had no money so all I could eat was cheap food.\
When it was time to eat by myself I had no money so all I could eat was cheap food.
The very top, the thing I especially enjoyed doing.
Because you were able to have a great influence on me, as a human
That's what I thought
You always
treated me to expensive things
Now, in return I am able to do for my juniors
I was also able to establish a bond of trust with my juniors, and teaching them
I've learned so much, I truly would like to thank you
I hold inside the unforgettable work that Hamada-san has done
Actually, that was a story that I promised to myself not ever to say on television, but
having a great occasion today, please allow that conversation
Hamada-san's distinction is that of being scary
A image of a rough delinquent
About me, I remember seeing Hamada really angry
In 12 years only one time,
I think Hamada-san can't remember this, but
it was at the beginning, when I came to Tokyo
And I treated him a meal three times.
Still
I received from Hamada-san love and affection
That Hamada-san among other things is scary
I am proud to think that despite he gets angry he's not bad
He changed my past anew and made me grow up
"I can do it by myself, you just go to eat"
You always said that
Even though, I was still very nervous and because you were indeed scary
If I tried to help him
"It's fine," he used to say
While looking angry
Still, I was thinking about something that I could do for him
And so, on the parking spot on our way back
"I'll drive Hamada-san's car back home!"
I said, and Hamada-san got near me, with a terrible angry look
"What did ya come to Tokyo for?" he said
I didn't understand the meaning of the question, and so I answered "Uh?"
And again, with the same look on his face
"I said, what did ya come to Tokyo for?"
That was what I was being asked
"I came here because I want to become famous!"
That was my answer, and
"Is that so? Ya didn't came here to be a driver, ain't ya? Listen, punk, I'm driving YOU back home."
He said so, and took me home
At that time, what Hamada-san told me and the time spent while taking me home
Are my treasured items
And
Because I trusted my words "I came here because I want to become famous"
I can say till now i've tried my best
From License's Inamoto Takafumi
Whats going on?
Again what is this?
You stop sobbing ok!!
Excuse me
I mean what is this?
What is what now?
What's up with you?
You Stop Crying!
You don't matter now
That's not the case, right
Um, with Hamada-san
Sorry He is s a troublesome partner
Sorry He is a troublesome partner
with Hamada-san he says
close
I tend to pity everyone and feel close to them
I didn't know
That sort of episode occurred while listening and drinking
Cannot help to be like this
Next week
True gratitude toward Hamada is displayed
After a twist
If this person is here
I thought that I'd feel more like a secure comedian
Next week the full-time sequel
Housei
What is this cure all for confidence while doing comedy?
Trusting in you
Matsumoto To his Partner
Those feelings....
Matsumoto'sheartfelt emotions
Matsumoto's heartfelt emotions
To Hamada
30 years since Downtown was formed
Ehhhhhhhhhhh I remember now
Tears
that define the Circumstance
Tears. And their cause is...
little by little
and I was able to make a living as a comedian.
