TV ドラマ「あいつが上手で下手が僕で -巡巡決勝篇-」Blu-ray BOX
The latest drama in the Kamishimo series! This is the story of the eight days leading to the quarterfinals of 38 (Sanpachi) Fantasista, one of Japan's largest manzai comedy prize competitions. The popular actors active on 2.5-dimensional stages reunite following seasons 1 and 2. Bonus footage takes viewers behind the scenes with a lively making-of feature, and the package includes a special three-sided case.
38 Fantasista, known as Pachifan, is open to professional and amateur comedy duos formed within the past fifteen years. This year's competition has a record number of approximately ten thousand entries. The preliminary rounds have reached the third round, and six of the seven duos from the former Shonan Theater have advanced! One of them, Exodus, is thriving in its new home of Osaka. Tokiura polishes their material while Shima wins the affection of mentors and senior comedians and achieves results. Amid Osaka's crowd of performers, the duo is selected as theater members and makes more television appearances. Everything seems to be going smoothly. All that remains is to get results at Pachifan! Yet Tokiura says, 'We're missing something.' Shima protests, 'Why bring that up just before the quarterfinals?!' Dark clouds gather over them on the eve of the stage on which they stake their lives.
Amagen loses in the third round but remains connected by a deep bond. Nonokurage continues growing after overcoming repeated disparities. Neander has committed to being a manzai duo. What will Last Waltz decide in its final eligible year at Pachifan? Long Lead earns a huge laugh in the third round: can they grasp this chance? Laugh Tube steadily keeps delivering results. Driven from Shonan Theater and scattered across the country, these family members, best friends or rivals encounter one another again. The decisive day approaches. This is the story of the eight days leading up to the Pachifan quarterfinals.
Six months after the closure of Shonan Theater, nicknamed Distress Theater, where unsuccessful comedians had been sent into exile, Exodus has moved its base to Osaka. The dream prize competition Pachifan offers ten million yen and the chance to change a comedian's life overnight. Buoyed by getting through the third round, Exodus intends to stake everything on the quarterfinals eight days away, but an unexpected offer arrives for an on-location television programme. Tokiura, played by Yoshihiko Aramaki, and Shima, played by Masanari Wada, clash over accepting it. Tokiura wants to concentrate solely on Pachifan; Shima believes they should accept any work they can get. Under the watchful eye of manager Sado, played by Kazunari Tosa, who ruthlessly cuts off comedians who do not make money, which path will Exodus choose? Eight days remain until the fateful quarterfinals. Win and change your life! The heated struggle of comedians on the brink begins.
All eight episodes are included on themain disc, alongside a separatemaking-of bonus disc, a special booklet and a three-sided case. The fourteen large-size cast solo photographs commemorating the end of filming were first-press extras and are not guaranteed.
