00:01Tonight's Jirojiro Ariyoshi is...
00:04In September of this year, an off-season event was held in Saitama Prefecture.
00:08And the people who gathered there were...
00:10It looks fun.
00:12What is this?
00:15A mini-car with a remote control.
00:21What is this?
00:24Gentsuki Mini Car is a mini-car with a 50cc engine just like a Gentsuki bike.
00:32The width is less than 1.3 meters.
00:35And the length is less than 2.5 meters.
00:38It's a super micro project.
00:41Of course, it can run on public roads.
00:45It's a small-scale product.
00:47So, it can only run on public roads.
00:50It's fun.
00:52That's right.
00:53What kind of charm does Gentsuki Mini Car have?
00:57There's a car coming from behind.
01:00It's slow.
01:01Watch out!
01:02Watch out, everyone!
01:03Watch out!
01:06He's in a hurry.
01:08It's a Japanese culture that's deep in his heart.
01:12Ladies and gentlemen, Jirojiro Ariyoshi!
01:15Hinana, you're riding a bike.
01:17I'm riding a bike.
01:18It's amazing.
01:19I can't wear a full-face helmet.
01:23Oh, my.
01:24Stop it now.
01:25I'm wearing a helmet with my face on it.
01:27But the red light makes me take a lot of pictures.
01:30Every time I stop, I take a lot of pictures.
01:32I'm afraid of the red light.
01:35How about you, Mr. Ariyoshi?
01:37I don't have a driver's license.
01:39I see.
01:40But I've been on an open car once.
01:44I was in the passenger seat of a rich man.
01:47I drove to Ginza in an open car.
01:53I'm being filmed at work.
01:55It's an open car.
01:58It's good to investigate.
02:01I'm going to kill someone today, too.
02:03I'm going to kill someone today, too.
02:04NEPA driver, Nagisa Yasuke
02:07What's this name?
02:08It's cool to have a big car.
02:12It's strange to drive a small car.
02:17It's unique.
02:19It's probably a strange car.
02:23I came to Kawajima Town, located in the center of Saitama Prefecture.
02:29How big is it?
02:31It's a small car.
02:33There are a lot of people here.
02:36It's amazing.
02:37I think I'm going to appear in a movie.
02:39There are many cars of this type.
02:44There are three-wheel cars.
02:48There are four-wheel cars, too.
02:51The balance of the three-wheel car is bad.
02:53The balance is bad.
02:56This time, about 100 cars from all over Japan will be assembled.
03:01Some of them were brought from Kyushu.
03:05It's like a sports car.
03:06It's amazing.
03:09What is this?
03:10It's amazing.
03:11It's a Yamazaki car.
03:13It's a world-class car.
03:14It looks like it's going to kick.
03:15It's a owner's car.
03:17It's a self-driving car that I usually drive in Osaka.
03:20Is it a self-driving car?
03:22It's a self-driving car.
03:23How much did you pay for this?
03:26I paid 70,000 yen.
03:2870,000 yen?
03:30It's not moving at that time.
03:33I fixed it from there until it moved.
03:38Did you sell it in this state?
03:41No, I didn't.
03:42Did you make it yourself?
03:43Yes, I made it myself.
03:45This is a car wrapping.
03:50This is a Saides car sold by a manufacturer called Norimonoya in 1981.
03:57It's a Saides car.
03:58The handle of the motorcycle is attached so that even people with disabilities can ride it.
04:03You can drive it with just your hands.
04:05Can I ride it as it is?
04:07It's not produced at the moment.
04:10Is it necessary?
04:11Purchasing and repairing used cars at a low price is also a big problem for electric cars.
04:17I see.
04:18Do you have permission from Yamazaki?
04:21I don't say I bought it.
04:24Do you know it?
04:25I got a uniform from a manufacturer.
04:29I was told to wear this and ride it.
04:34That's great.
04:36Have you ever ridden this?
04:38No, I haven't.
04:39You should ride it.
04:40I only did it once.
04:41You should wear it.
04:42This is the most expensive car at this event.
04:48What is this?
04:49Why is it expensive?
04:52What is this?
04:53This car is famous for being designed by Akira Toriyama.
04:59That's great.
05:02This is a car called 9V.
05:05He wanted to make his own car, so he made it.
05:08This is the real signature of Akira Toriyama.
05:11Is this it?
05:13This is the signature of Akira Toriyama.
05:16That's right.
05:17This is very valuable.
05:19This car was released in 2005.
05:22Akira Toriyama spent more than a year to design this car.
05:26The concept is an electric truck for one person.
05:30The price of this car was 1.99 million yen.
05:38This car is over 100 million yen.
05:41Really?
05:42That's great.
05:45I got a message from overseas that I want this car.
05:49Please sit down.
05:51I feel sorry for you.
05:53I feel sorry for you.
05:55Who are you?
05:59This car suits you.
06:01This car suits you.
06:02This car is different from what I imagined.
06:05I imagined this car to be more cramped.
06:08This car is well made.
06:12Mr. Mizuguchi has more than 20 rare cars.
06:15He has only one rare car in the world.
06:20He has more than 20 rare cars with a width of 88 cm.
06:27He doesn't need a car light.
06:31He can store as many rare cars as he wants.
06:34Many people buy rare cars.
06:38If there is one parking lot, there are four parking lots.
06:41This person.
06:44Hello.
06:47I feel close to you.
06:50I feel like I'm in a cartoon.
06:52What kind of hair do you have?

07:02Is this a rare car?
07:03Yes.

07:08Yes, you can.
07:09It's big.
07:10You can ride it like this.
07:16The ceiling of this car has a head.
07:19This is a small car that was released in 1983.
07:24The price was 580,000 yen at that time.
07:28In the first half of the 1980s, he was able to drive with a license.
07:36Various manufacturers sold rare cars.
07:41I've never seen this before.
07:4350cc cars were popular among ordinary people.
07:49After that, he needed a license to drive a car in 1985.
07:55So the rare cars disappeared.
08:00But now, the world is paying attention to this car.
08:04Many companies are developing this car.
08:09This small car is one of the five rare cars made at that time.
08:14This car is still popular.
08:18This car is called a phantom mini car.
08:21It's a traffic jam.
08:26This is a feature of this car.
08:29This car doesn't have a back seat.
08:31You can sit down like this.
08:33This car doesn't have a back seat.
08:36This car is like a car.
08:38This car is light.
08:39Why did you get into a mini car?
08:42There are various types of mini cars.
08:44I want to drive this car and other cars.
08:48I want to drive a car that doesn't move.
08:52He will show us the car.

09:00The sound is the sound of a motorcycle.
09:04This car is fast.
09:07This car has a top speed of 60 km per hour.
09:12This car moves a little when turning.

09:23This car is not slippery, is it?
09:25That's right.
09:28Where do you usually park this car?
09:31I usually park this car in the warehouse.
09:33I put this car in another warehouse.
09:35I put this car in another warehouse.
09:38The advantage of GENTSUKI MINI CAR is that it is easy to park.
09:43I put 15 cars in the car warehouse one after another.
09:46It took only 10 minutes.
09:50This car is perfect.
09:52Is this car perfect?
09:56This car is as tall as me.
09:58This car is small.
09:59You are not tall.
10:01I don't know.
10:03I am surrounded by mini cars.
10:06There are also GENTSUKI MINI CARs for Itasha at the venue.
10:12What is this design?
10:15If you are an animator, you can understand this design.
10:17What is this animation?
10:20This is a Gundam mobile suit.
10:23Gundam?
10:24This is a product of a manufacturer called PIAGIO.
10:26PIAGIO?
10:27This is a VESPA manufacturer.
10:29Is this a VESPA manufacturer?
10:31VESPA.
10:32VESPA.
10:35Many people are not good at this.
10:41This is a 3D car produced by a VESPA manufacturer.
10:46In fact, there are few GENTSUKI MINI CAR manufacturers in Japan.
10:53When a car breaks down, it is common to repair it ourselves.
10:57I'm looking forward to it.
10:59In 1988, this car was released by TAKEOKA MOTOR COMPANY.
11:05This is KOIKE.
11:08I repair not only the engine but also the body.
11:15Everyone calls me a doctor.
11:17Are you a doctor?
11:19If you can repair any MINI CAR, you will be loved by all over Japan.
11:25He has been repaired more than 100 times a year.
11:28His nickname is Dr. K.
11:31I bought a cap of K.
11:35This is almost free.
11:38It's like a hobby.
11:40I like MINI CARs.
11:44I want to buy a MINI car with a MINI on it.
11:48Did you have the knowledge of repairing engines for a long time?
11:53I learned it by myself.
11:55That's amazing.
11:57Now I know how to repair the engine.
12:04I work from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m.
12:10It's a good hobby.
12:13More than 12 hours?
12:14Yes.
12:15By the way, this MINI CAR can be repaired if you follow the minimum standard set by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.
12:28This is a four-wheeled buggy at an amusement park or a game center.
12:35I hid this in a four-wheeled buggy.
12:38That's amazing.
12:42This engine doesn't have a buggy.
12:45You can do it with your legs.
12:47I can do it.
12:48You can do it with your legs.
12:51I can do it.
12:52It's hard to do it with a buggy, isn't it?
12:54I don't have a buggy.
12:55I only think about going forward.
12:59That's how heavy it is.
13:01That's right.
13:03Mr. Toyonaga was the most passionate.
13:09I make this MINI CAR every day after work.
13:15It took me three months to complete it.
13:18I didn't know how to do wiring, so I got a license to do electrical engineering.
13:23I got a license for this.
13:25That's amazing.
13:27Everything from design to assembly is handcrafted.
13:31That's amazing.
13:33In addition.
13:35I wanted to challenge myself to see how far I could run when I finished it.
13:40I tried it in Hokkaido.
13:43I was able to do it.
13:46I wanted to see how far I could go to the south.
13:49I just did it.
13:51Then I went around Japan naturally.
13:54Naturally.
13:55He quit his job and challenged himself.
13:57He went around Japan for 233 days.
14:02That's a long time.
14:05It's 60 kilometers.
14:07I went around Japan.
14:10I got a call from an electric motorcycle company.
14:14Now I'm designing.
14:16That's interesting.
14:17It was a gathering of strange people.
14:20They were all good people.
14:24If I see them in the city next time, I'll shake their hands.
14:29I think they'll look back at me.
14:31Why don't you own one?
14:36That's amazing.
14:37I didn't know that.
14:39It's cute.
14:41If I ride that.
14:43You're funny.
14:45It's like a theater.
14:47I'm not going to ask you to take a picture.
14:51I want you to experience the GENTSUKI MINICA.
14:56I prepared this.
14:58It runs.
15:00It's a good size.
15:01It's quiet.
15:03Is it so quiet?
15:04It's quiet because it's electric.
15:07It's quieter than a vacuum cleaner.
15:10I've loved GENTSUKI MINICA for 13 years.
15:13I brought it from Saitama.
15:15This is KANDO.
15:17Nice to meet you.
15:20Can I sit here?
15:21It was developed by TAKEOKA MOTOR COMPANY and HOKURIKU DENRYU.
15:29This is to move inside the factory.
15:32When do you usually ride this?
15:34When I go shopping nearby.
15:37I don't need gasoline if I charge it.
15:41I use it to ride a little.
15:43Can you park the car in the parking lot?
15:46I think it's a waste.
15:48That's right.
15:50Can I ride this?
15:52It's narrow.
15:56I wanted you to say that it's not narrow.
15:58I'm sorry.
15:59It's a big car.
16:01But it's okay.
16:02I usually sit in the passenger seat.
16:07The point is that it's an automatic car that only moves forward and backward.
16:11There is a pocket here.
16:13If you put this pocket forward, it will go forward.
16:16If you put this pocket backward, it will go backward.
16:18Is the switch for forward and backward so small?
16:20That's right.
16:21This is a battery type.
16:23This is where you charge the battery.
16:25Is this a household item?
16:27This is a normal item.
16:30How do you feel?
16:32I feel calm.
16:34I don't know when to get out of the car.
16:36It's like a distribution room.
16:38Get out of the car quickly.
16:42I found a reason to get out of the car.
16:44I don't know what a distribution room is.
16:47This time, KAWAI will experience how easy it is to ride a MINICA.
16:54I reproduced this road.
16:56This is a very narrow road in AKASAKA.
16:59The width of the car is 140 cm.
17:01This is a very narrow road.
17:05This road is so narrow that even a light automatic car cannot enter.
17:08If I walk there, I think I will be beaten.
17:15Where do you go?
17:17I don't know if I can turn.
17:23I'm not the kind of person who gets out of the car and drives.
17:25I'm scared if I get out of the car.
17:30Challenge the narrow road in AKASAKA with GENTSUKI MINICA.
17:34KAWAI will go straight along the 140 cm wide road.
17:39He will turn 90 degrees.
17:41Please park your car in the back of this space.
17:47This is a very narrow space.
17:50KAWAI, please start.
17:54This is good.
17:56This is quiet.
17:58This is fun.
17:59Can you go 90 degrees?
18:02I can't go 90 degrees in a normal car.
18:04Be careful.
18:06You are slow.
18:08I'm scared.
18:10You are slow.
18:12You are slow.
18:16You are in a hurry.
18:19This road is very narrow.
18:22I'm stepping on the accelerator.
18:25You will be beaten.
18:27Be careful.
18:31I don't have a back monitor.
18:34Don't say that.
18:36Please ask for help.
18:38I want your help.
18:40Can you go 90 degrees?
18:42Please look ahead.
18:44You are right.
18:46How many times have you switched?
18:48Please look ahead.
18:50Can you go 90 degrees?
18:52Please look ahead.
18:54You are dangerous.
18:56I'm scared if I get out of the car.
19:00I'm scared.
19:02Please open the door.
19:04Please open the door.
19:06It's open.
19:08It's okay.
19:10It's open.
19:12It's over.
19:14It's okay.
19:16I don't need your guidance.
19:18It's straight.
19:20It's my first time.
19:22It's my first time to be guided.
19:24You will be beaten.
19:28I don't need your guidance.
19:30I don't need your guidance.
19:32This is very difficult.
19:34This is very difficult.
19:36Inada is in the way.
19:38You are dangerous.
19:40You are dangerous.
19:42I don't want to see this.
19:44Please look behind you.
19:46Please look behind you.
19:50I don't need your guidance.
19:52I don't need your guidance.
19:54Don't follow me.
19:56Don't follow me.
20:00He is pushing you.
20:02He is pushing you.
20:04I don't need your guidance.
20:06He is pushing you.
20:08Don't push me.
20:10Why do you push me?
20:12You are relaxed.
20:16You are relaxed.
20:20I can't get out of the car.
20:24You can't get out of the car.
20:26It's funny.
20:28I think it's funny.
20:30I want to get in the car quickly.
20:34I was disappointed.
20:44I was hooked on this.
20:46What?
20:48Next week.
20:50The second round of the ultimate tournament.
20:52How many pieces of ramen do you eat?
20:54I eat 41 pieces.

20:58It's a bit of a shiho
21:00Shioichi
21:02You're not allowed to say that
21:04How much does Ogi pay for a bowl of ramen with a lot of love?
21:08How is it?

21:54It's plastic
21:56It didn't rot
21:58I painted it with Asahi pen
22:00I painted it with Asahi pen
22:02The weather at the home center
22:04I heard that minicars don't have air conditioning or heating
22:06I heard that minicars don't have air conditioning or heating
22:08Is this car the same?
22:10I open this
22:12I can't turn on the air conditioner because of the wind
22:14I can't turn on the air conditioner because of the wind

22:35I want to say it, but I don't want it
22:38I want to make people smile
22:40I'm happy to be able to ride it.
22:44I'm happy just to be able to ride it.
