The story
Actress Tomoko Yamaguchi revealed a past incident in which she flew into a rage at her husband, actor Toshiaki Karasawa, during the late-night broadcast of TV Tokyo’s “Nikenme Dou Suru?” on the 17th. Yamaguchi starred alongside Takuya Kimura in the 1996 drama “Long Vacation,” a nationwide smash hit, and this confession touched on a real-life incident connected to that co-starring role. On 5ch’s live discussion threads, posters traded various theories about exactly what happened when Kimura visited the couple’s home, with many replies cross-checking memories — including the long-running anecdote that Karasawa once had a small piece of furniture built specifically to hide his game console, and comments pointing out Karasawa and Kimura’s own history of co-starring together.

What people said
Huh? It was Tokiwa Kyoko.
Why isn't anyone bringing that part up?
That's probably also why Kimutaku doesn't get along with Takaaki Ishibashi
If he welcomed the guy too warmly, the guy would just end up coming over constantly — no thanks
I think it means he was jealous because Yamaguchi was all over Kimutaku in the drama, deep kisses and everything
so Yamaguchi wouldn't find out
Didn't he have them make it with a wood-grain pattern? lol
Could he really have brought home some gorgeous actress he was playing a love interest with, at a time like this?
Fair point
If he'd brought home some soft, sultry actress type…
Actually, Karasawa and Kimutaku had already co-starred before "Long Vacation," in the movie "Kimi wo Wasurenai" (I Won't Forget You)
Or at least resting your eyes.
Seems like a waste to spend that time on something that just tires your eyes out.
Maybe Yamaguchi's the one stopping him lol
Not many actors could take on a world-saving hero role
and nail it that convincingly
Same goes for Occho and Yukiji — that whole casting was a miracle
His Zaizen role in "The White Tower" was great too — even better than Jiro Tamiya's
Same if a woman had Nozomi Sasaki brought home
and her husband got all googly-eyed over her — she'd be pissed too
Why Nozomi Sasaki specifically though
Background and Key Points of This Topic
“Long Vacation” was a Fuji TV drama that aired in 1996, starring Takuya Kimura and Tomoko Yamaguchi, and it became a nationwide hit with a peak rating above 30%. Toshiaki Karasawa is Yamaguchi’s husband but was not a co-star in the drama itself, and thread posters initially disagreed over who the episode even involved, mixing him up with co-stars from other shows such as Takako Matsu or Kyoko Tokiwa. The anecdote about Karasawa having a piece of furniture made to hide his game console ahead of Kimura’s visit is also already a well-known story that Karasawa himself has told on TV before, and it’s not possible to confirm from the broadcast excerpt alone whether that’s the same incident as the “totally lost it” episode Yamaguchi described this time. Readers should keep this in mind and distinguish between speculation on the thread and facts actually stated on the program.
