Looks like there's going to be a SASUKE team on a Japanese Quiz show next Tuesday:
Trashlate: TV Tokyo "Matsuko want to give money quiz" May 22 at midnight Sasuke team: Katsumi Yamada, Yuji Urushihara, Masashi Hioki, and Tomohiro Kawaguchi

I think a lot of it is due to the fact that Yamada is so closely associated with SASUKE. While he is arrogant, a jerk, a poor sport (actually, we've discussed this before in another thread), Yamada is practically the face of SASUKE. All the ads and stuff he's been in - that car ad or the phone one - he's acknowledged for his career on the show.
That's why I think Yamada is there if he doesn't get along with Inui - he's so closely tied to SASUKE.

Disappointed Takeda isn't there or Morimoto. Surprised Yamada is here Inui hates him I love Yusuke, but he doesn’t strike me as the kind of person who would take time off work for “celebrity” guest appearances like a Quiz show. He’d rather save that time off for competitions and family. |

Doesn't Takeda also still live in Gifu (unless he moved once he switched professions and I missed it), presuming filming is in Tokyo, is he really gonna waste 3-5 hours of travel for a random game show gig when he hasn't done one in the better half of a decade?

I know he moved a while back to be closer to Nagano if memory serves |

I only recently located his workplace. It's actually moved a little bit since a few months back. |

I only recently located his workplace. It's actually moved a little bit since a few months back. Well he's still in the same general area. He's not in Gifu anymore nor is he in firefighting, heavy rescue or anything of the like in a couple years. Many missed that transition and don't recognize who the new lady is - his new wife. |

I'm surprised Shingo ISN'T there and Katsumi is tbh. I guess Shingo is really busy, that's one reason he didn't appear this time? he's got Bariante gym and Momo auto tuning and other businesses (hotels? gas stations? i remember arsenette mentioned it before) to manage. |

Momo Auto Tuning I'm pretty sure doesn't exist anymore. I finally found where it once was and now it's a house. I think Shingo is just focusing on bariante right now (or golfing. XD) |

Just saying his new wife is really quite sweet! I'm friends with her on Facebook.  |

I wish Nagano would take part He'd never do that.  He's super self conscious about his lack of formal education and the fact that he is not into current media as a whole. He doesn't see television with any frequency either to know any current events or much less pop culture. |

I have no idea how the layout of this game show is, but I wouldn't be surprised if Yamada does better on it (relatively speaking) than he has on Sasuke over the past 15 or so years. In other words, if he can answer at least a few questions correctly, get past the first round, etc., that's probably a good run for him. |
