The episode is a 2-hour special episode dubbed as "Ganjitsu Kara Yofukashi". The first topic was about "Japan's Big Problem in 2021" which included Ibaraki which miraculously did not came last in prefecture attractiveness ranking, VR shrine experience, Okinawan residents unfamiliarity with osechi (feat. Yome-nii of Ep. 314), and COVID-19 adaptations for some business. The staff also asked some foreigners on New Year's tradition in their countries. Magician GO (Ep. 397) then came to the studio and showed a magic performance to the hosts. After that they watched the recording of Mr. Kiritani where he had a helper in his house, tries to get some unused items for sale and spending his stock benefits vouchers. They later showed interviews of people's resolution for 2021 which included a woman who wanted to compete in World Powerlifting Championships, a student who wanted to get better exam results so his parents will buy him a PS5, and a Chinese man who wanted to be in this show. The hosts were later given two buttons to connect with the jumbo okonomiyaki maker (Ep. 248) and Hibis Kasue the drag queen (Ep. 115). To end the episode, they showed Fef Girl's (Ep. 207) road to a pro-kickboxer and her first competition. (Source: Griffin Seannery at MyDramaList)
