Monday Late Show Episode 499

The episode started with an interview about people's trips. The staff found two beauty pageant entrants who visited Tokyo to wish for beauty in a shrine, two online game friends who met each other in Osaka, and a man from Hakodate who went to Sapporo to watch the same Pretty Cure movie several times. The hosts then had a conversation with one audience member regarding the movie. Next, they moved to the 2022 Halloween Investigation, where the staff found a roller coaster cosplay team, three middle-aged women lost in the middle of a cosplay party, foreign cosplay talents, and a "lame Halloween costume" contest. Matsuko and Murakami then decided that a "department switch employee" cosplayer from the lame costume contest was this year's winner. After that, they investigated more old houses in the middle of Tokyo, just like in Ep. 487. This time, they visited a woman who bought an old house because she liked it and a stage actor with various acting-related items hung around his 100-year-old house. Lastly, the studio audience was given a chance to pick a topic for the hosts, and a man asked Matsuko about his views on love. (Source: Griffin Seannery at MyDramaList)
