Track 6

For this round, the challenge will be to guess which is the high-end ingredient. HOWEVER, there will be a special rule in place — you will have 3 options: the correct one, the incorrect one, and one you must ABSOLUTELY not choose: the "Super Kaboom"!

Super Kaboom... there are no matches for said term amongst the past data.

So they're adding a new rule here. I have a bad feeling about this.....

If you answer correctly, you will receive a "Silver Celeb-kun Doll", which doubles your team's score. However.....!

If you choose the "Super Kaboom" option, you won't score any points. And you'll also be given a random penalty, chosen by a roulette! Of course, this penalty will apply to the entire team!

Pe-Penalty.....?! And for the, whole team.....!

Butbut, Sakujii's special training menu has helped Renre try all sorts of food. So I'm sure he'll be fine, no matter what comes up!

.....I thinky!

.......

What you'll be tasting is some "homemade konnyaku"!¹ The ingredients used in each sample are exactly the same! For this round, the only difference is WHO made it!!

Ho...Homemade konnyaku?!!

Ahh~ He's gotten into quite the pickle~ What a great expression.....!

Nishizono-kun said he trained really hard for this, after all~ Looks like they still managed to catch him off guard.

All the trips to those restaurants across the country paid off.....!

Oh nyo~!! Konnyaku wasn't part of Sakujii's training menu, was it?!

It's winter... so we thought that, processed seafood ingredients, might come up.... We had hanpen.. and chikuwabu, and ganmodoki... but.....

We overthought it.

Homemade konnyaku..... It is also unexpected that the objective is to differ between the makers.

The new rule has caused quite the fuss here in the studio! Now then, before I announce the correct answer, how about we try some here in the studio as well!

*nom..... nom.....*

Mmm~ They're all sho yummers~!

They're... all a little different..... But, I have no idea, which is which.....

All the ingredients are the same. Calculations unclear.

.....!

(This taste—)

Ah, looks like Renre's about to try it too!

Hmph..... I see. This springy texture and refined mouthfeel, the answer is clear.

(Konnyaku... Konnyaku.....! How am I supposed to tell.....?!)

"Alrighty! Now, time for Nishizono-kun's first answer on today's episode. What are your thoughts?"

! A-Ah.....!

The great Renga... only needs the real deal. Of course I can answer something like this elegantly AND correctly.

As expected of our defending champion, what a promising statement. Now, it's time to taste-test! Please put on your eye mask!

Alright, I'm ready!

Oh myyy! As expected of Nishizono-kun, his celebrity attire has only gotten even MORE elegant~!

WHA- OEMGEE.....! I know this is a staple of the show, but it still makes me laugh....!

That is a facial expression I've never seen from Nishizono-sama before.

That, eye mask... hehe. I think Isotake, would like... it.

(This is stupid.....)

This is Konnyaku X.

.....*slurp!*

Mhm, it's all jiggly and yummy!

"Now it's time to try the last 2 choices, Konnyaku Y and Konnyaku Z!

(.....Mm?)

(This taste.....)

.....Konnyaku Y is soft and squishy, with a rich flavor! Konnyaku Z is all bouncy and puyo puyo,² and tastes really good!

.......

"For this round, you will select your answer by going into its corresponding room. Now, which room will Nishizono-kun choose.....?!"

.....Alright, the great Renga has made his choice! I'm heading to the correct room!

I'll first reveal the answer to everyone in the studio!

The correct answer is Konnyaku Z! It was made by a veteran with decades of experience under their belt, the shop-owner of a long-established konnyaku shop in HAMA!

Konnyaku Y was made by a food printer. As for Konnyaku X... believe it or not, it's the first ever konnyaku made by yours truly!

So~ Were our representatives able to get the correct answer!?! Let's check it out!

The HAMA Tours team has been tasked to check on Room X.

If, Nishizono-san... is in Room X, then... that'd mean, he chose the "Super Kaboom", option.....

It'll be okie dokie! Even if this round doesn't go well, we haven't lost yet! Plus, it'd be a good opportunity for some BFRC footage!

But.....

.....

I still hope that he got the answer right~

Let us wish Nishizono-sama the best of luck.

Please don't... have Nishizono-san, inside.....

Okie, this is the place. Let's open the door on the count of 3.

1, 2.....!

.....?! Everyone!!

"W-W-WHAT A TURN OF EVENTS!!! NISHIZONO RENGA, HAS CHOSEN THE SUPER KABOOM OPTIOOOON~~!!!"
