This episode is a 2 hours Aki (Fall) SP and it has lots of good segments. Those touching ones are the baby elephant's moment of birth, the Akita dog, Wasao, Becky's Wakabe and Tsubomi continuous segment (I like Becky's segment and I hope both dogs finally get to interact normally with humans naturally, not in the forced way just for television). I decided not to cap the touching ones because you have to watch it, capping only is not enough hehe....

But off course TSD is not TSD without all the cuteness, they have the aka-chan segment (thank goodness it's not a lot this time), pet shop segments and... Aiba-chan's new segment!



Aiba-chan's new corner! Yey! Standard Aiba-chan's Engrish greeting!


So basically it's just a Q&A segment based on questions sent by audience. Simple but I bet it'll be interesting to follow.


Introduction time, we have the assistant, Niko-chan (Fusaoma Monkey).


Assistant at work straight ahead, handing postcard to 'buchou'? hehehe
Question: Do animals yawn?


So we've seen animals yawn, but will animal also mimic human's reaction eg. when we see other people's yawning, we also have the tendency to yawn too?


Our experiment subject, a Golden Retriever puppy... OMG the cuteness...


Experiment begins... Aiba-chan stares... puppy stares back...


Stares... stares...


Fail! LOL... but it gaves us ultra cuteness overload in the process... I'll say experiment is a success LOL
the remarks: yesterday you sleep too much didn't you? LOL


Next step, fake yawn...


Reaction:... zero, LOL!!! the puppy must be thinking: who's this guy? what's he doing? what am I doing here?


Cuteness cuteness...


Is it possible that puppy knows Aiba-chan faking his yawning?
Then Aiba-chan remember that there are people who always say that they're sleepy...


Who are they? *puppy peeking from Aiba-chan shoulder is just too cute*
Oh, it's these 2 comedians that I dunno the name, Aiba-chan describe them as people who are always busy with lots of TV appearance, to which got barked back that people who're busy are not immediately come when they're told to come hehe...


Experiment starts again...


wait... wait...


change position and wait... stare at the ceiling...

Reaction: .............................. LOL it's actually a very mellow face of WTF LOL...

The yawn is too fake LOL...


After 10 minutes, we have the sleepy AD-san tachi hehehe...


Another try... this time slowly... then...


Aiba-chan expression when puppy finally yawn is gold. Probably puppy is getting sleepy anyway being hold for minutes and not move around...


After replay and replay, puppy: *w/ smug look* I yawned, so, happy?

So the answer to the question is YES (according to Aiba-chan). This is just like A no Arashi's Jiken kekka hehe...


In reality: there are cases whereby the dogs do yawn but not always, apparently.

So we have part 2 in this episode...


Niko-chan doesn't like to be ordered and bang on the stack of paper to which Aiba-chan apologizes hehe...


Q: what reaction do animals have when they see themselves on the mirror?


Goat and Chameleon a act the same way as Llama, that they don't recognize their own reflection


We have examples from previous episode that Llama will thought that it's a rival and starts to become hostile toward the reflection, Chibi-chan was freaked out...


So Aiba-chan bring in the person who's lived with monkeys.
Question: When Japanese monkey is faced with its own reflection, what will it do?


Actually Aiba-chan, why you're at the monitoring room, it'll probably more fun if you take the monkey yourself, no? Or probably the staff were scared that dear monkey will scratch Aiba-chan's face (Think Johnny's will insure Arashi's face? hehehe)


But you still look cute, ok, I don't mind XD...
The Japanese monkey for experiment this time is called Junior-kun.


At first Junior-kun realizes its reflection and starts reacting, but it begins to realize that there's another monkey around (its reflection)... so, what makes AIba-chan react like that?


So, Junior-kun start to 'find the flea' on the 'other' monkey... heee...


They're trying out another experiment with cut raw Maguro head... so when Junior-kun notice the head... it freaked out...


Then stares right to the maguro eyes and starts with this act? Why is that? Apparently monkey will do this if they're uncomfortable and trying to run away (the rope prevent it from dashing away).


Then, what about if we put grapes (supposedly monkey's favorite food) on maguro's mouth...
Junior-kun put on the drooling face...


First, its still affraid. The fear is bigger than the eating urge. But it managed to get 1 or 2 pieces, the top, to eat. but then...


It stops eating, why? Apparently monkeys are sensitive to the smell... it doesn't like maguro smell...


It even throws the grapes away... so answer: although it overcome its fear but the smell just... can't... hehehe


Such cuteness... Tone up your muscles to take firm position when you eat! hehe...

But off course TSD is not TSD without all the cuteness, they have the aka-chan segment (thank goodness it's not a lot this time), pet shop segments and... Aiba-chan's new segment!
