Koi Watanabe Experiences Behind-the-Scenes Panic on Adult Video Set

TOKYO, Feb 27 (News On Japan) - In the late-night broadcast of "Ariyoshi Quiz" (TV Asahi) on the 25th, popular comedian Takashi Watanabe from Nishikigoi made an appearance. Watanabe, who is well-versed in adult videos, was shocked to learn about "the other side of filming."

"Nishikigoi Watanabe Can Win! Adult Video Industry Quiz."

Ariyoshi Hiroyuki, Seiya from Shimoneta, Michopa aka Ikeda Miyu, and others formed a team to compete against Watanabe in a quiz showdown. With the help of adult actor Shimiken in creating questions and former adult actress Mikami Yua as a commentator, the quiz revealed the behind-the-scenes of adult video filming.

During the quiz, Watanabe answered why performers enjoy shooting in the Magic Mirror studio, a mobile studio with transparent walls, by saying, "The subtle vibrations of the engine feel pretty good." This incorrect answer led Ariyoshi to dismiss him as an amateur, saying, "You're just a lewd old man." Ariyoshi then correctly answered, "Because it gets bright inside at night and can be seen from outside, filming ends early," to which Mikami explained that long shoots are common, so it's a "welcome filming setup for actresses."

The Birth of the Erotic Quiz King

When asked why there are adult videos with long titles, Ariyoshi answered, "Because they're easier to find in searches." He also correctly answered that "a large number of baked sweet potatoes are placed on set" because "when the truck selling them broadcasts, it interferes with the audio, so they buy them up when it approaches." Seiya and others praised Ariyoshi, calling him the "Erotic Quiz Knockout" and "King of Erotic Quizzes."

Ariyoshi's team dominated with correct answers, leaving Watanabe frustrated, saying, "This is different from what I thought." Amidst this, when it was revealed that actresses wear their hair to one side to hide ear monitors for directors' instructions or to hear their next lines, Watanabe was shocked, lamenting that he thought the actresses' lines were "all improvised by themselves," and was teased for "dreaming too much."

Watanabe Panics

As the behind-the-scenes of adult videos were revealed one after another in quiz format, Watanabe confessed, "I'm a bit panicked right now... I've learned too much about the behind-the-scenes." Ariyoshi and others teased him, calling him a "pure man," and Watanabe sadly said, "The fantasy I had in mind was just an illusion."

Viewers also reacted to the Erotic Quiz King Ariyoshi and the pure Watanabe, with comments like, "It's clear that Mr. Watanabe enjoys AV purely as a consumer without taking the perspective of the production side," "Watanabe-san enjoys AV very purely," and "Erotic Quiz King Ariyoshi is too strong."
