[Translation] TOKIO's New Weekly Variety Show

This fall, "5LDK" is moving to a new time-slot on Wednesday at 11:00 PM!
And not only that, it's getting a make-over as well--a powered-up renewal in the form of a new title "TOKIO Kakeru" (name temporary).
In a series of cutting-edged games, TOKIO's true selves will be revealed!

Just what "level" of a person would you consider yourself to be...? When we were in school, though we may not have enjoyed them, we had tests to measure our growth and skills, but as we've grown into adults, these forms of tests to measure ourselves have all but disappeared... "TOKIO Kakeru" aims to solve this problem, giving you tests as a human being--not through grades, your place in society, your job, or your income, but through your true self.

"TOKIO Kakeru" is a new type of "Level-Game Variety Programming". TOKIO members Joshima Shigeru, Yamaguchi Tatsuya, Kokubun Taichi, Matsuoka Masahiro and Nagase Tomoya, along with their weekly guest, will compete against each other in original games to measure their "Personal Levels". The games will require mostly adult forms of strategy in order to succeed, so each of the contestants' true natures will be laid bare-faced to the world!

Some of the games on the show will include "Night of the Wolf" and "New Machigaete~ra" among others. "Night of the Wolf" is a game based on the card game currently taking the European continent by storm. It's a psychological game where the players must sniff out the "wolf" (liar) amongst their friends using clues gathered from their conversations. Cooperation, back-stabbing, and cheating are all methods to employ in this game that will reveal one's true character!

"New Machigaete~ra" is based on the popular segment from "5LDK" where the members of TOKIO and their guest were tested in regards to their palate and sense of taste. This time on "TOKIO Kakeru", the rules have been reformed to transform this into a game that will test one's true level as a person! Other new games will focus on themes such as "love", "current trends", "economics" and "stocks" in a wide variety of games that viewers at home will be able to take part in as well.

One of "TOKIO Kakeru"'s most expansive new features is the ability for viewers at home to participate in the same games as TOKIO and their guest. While the show is being televised, viewers can play along on their cell phones and smart phones to guess the answers to the games' questions. Viewers will be able to measure their own "levels" in realtime with the rest of the cast! We invite all of you to join in the action each week to find out just how you measure up as a person and discover your own "level".
