Mr. Jyoji Morikawa, who is known for his 'first step', is close to his debut with Mr. Takahashi, and he was also a mahjong companion.

The debut was near, and the person in charge was the same, so I was able to get along very well.
He was also a mahjong companion. Since he was a newcomer, his drawing ability was outstanding, but he lacked a spirit of quest.
I wasn't so obsessed with selling.

I heard that the first person who recommended me was the teacher. The audience rating soared from the time of entering the second course, and at the same time the cards began to sell explosively, the movie version was decided ... The cast who had good teamwork overcame various memorable works.
