No, but I think it’s almost always Riku.

No, it’s not.

No, no, no.

The remote interview welcomes RikuRyuppea.

The pair is known for their strong bond,

but could an unexpected fight be brewing?

When you’re always together as a comedy duo, the other person’s, like, just…

their breathing alone can tick you off.

Their footsteps annoy you.

Their footsteps really annoy you.

Or you think, “The sound of you drinking water is loud.”

Or, “What’s with you humming like that?”

Those things do happen,

but for you two, you really have none of that at all?

Nothing small,

tiny,

that gets on your nerves?

When we say “fight,” it’s more like a sibling spat.

In our case, it’s over really little things.

Like, “Hey, throw out that trash there.”

Or unfinished plastic bottles and stuff like that.

That kind of thing.

Really, really tiny stuff.

But like you just said, “You didn’t take out the trash,”

that means you’re talking about Kihara, right?

It’s both of us.

It was both of you?

Like, “Oh… okay.”

I still think it’s mostly Riku.

No, it’s not.

No, no, no.

He leaves a lot of half-drunk plastic bottles.

It’s usually Riku.

He forgets the tape trash he used and leaves it on the floor.

I clean it up, so Riku just doesn’t notice.

I end up tidying up Riku’s tape trash a lot.

And Riku is the one cleaning up Riichi’s bottles.

Then I’ll leave that to you, please.

That’s exactly what they’re like.

You can see how they are normally.

I feel like we just saw a super rare scene.

Amazing.

The Olympic gold medalist pair RikuRyuppea’s
