Shinnosuke: It's the end of August. Is there anything you remember about 8/31 when you were a student?
Kikuko: There's something that I can't forget. When I was in primary school, there was a "free research" homework. I didn't have anything done by 8/31. [9/1 is when Japanese schools start after the Summer vacation.] So I decided to do research on mosquitoes. I had my father draw a picture, and I just labeled the parts.
Shinnosuke: You didn't do it yourself.
Kikuko: That's true. I'm sorry.

Someone wrote in a letter about a giant manbou (about 3 meters, 2 tons) that was caught in Chiba. While Shinnosuke was reading about how they ate it, Kikuko was saying, "Iyada.. iyada.. Don't eat it."
Kikuko: We do eat lots of things, but when I hear about someone eating manbou, my body starts hurting.
Shinnosuke: I've never eaten manbou before.
Kikuko: You don't have to eat it.

They talked about Gundam Gaiden again (continued from last week). Shinnosuke played the game (you can hear the sounds in the background), and he kept yelling a lot while playing. Kikuko kept saying, "Waa, sugoi."

There was a letter from a listener saying that they should get a nickname for Kikuko, as they had done that for the previous guest hosts. Kikuko said that everyone calls her "oneechan", and she loves being called that. Shinnosuke said that since he only has an older sister, nobody had ever called him "oniichan". Kikuko said that she wanted a nickname that wasn't related to manbou.

Someone sent in a letter saying that Kikuko was the acapella queen.
Kikuko: I like to sing about anything that comes to me. I can write a song any time.
Shinnosuke: Any time?
Then Kikuko sang a song about Parageki Tai.
Kikuko: I'm very happy when they put the echo in.

They are asking for lyrics by fans for the Parageki Tai song. Kikuko will arrange it and sing it.

They played "Soul Station" by Soul to Hot, Furumoto Shinnosuke's band.

They read some letter for Shinnosuke's new corners. They are supposed to be funny, but they weren't that funny. Also they got a letter from someone who eats watermelon skins.

Kikuko: The other day, I was on the Yamanote Line, and when I got off, one of my friends got off the train from the other Yamanote Line train. I was very surprised.
