00:00This is Nori Nori Sampo!
00:02We've just left Okinawa and arrived at Ishigaki Island!
00:07Wow!
00:09Next to us is the former boxing world champion from Ishigaki Island,
00:13Yoko Gushiken!
00:15She's a hero, isn't she?
00:17She's from Ishigaki Island.
00:19That's right.
00:20I think we should get started.
00:22Yes.
00:23Is there anything missing?
00:25I think we should get started.
00:26Yes.
00:27Is there anything missing?
00:29No, there isn't.
00:30It's just the three of us.
00:32I don't think there's anything missing.
00:34I don't think so either.
00:38What is it?
00:40My favorite number is Lucky 7's 5.
00:44I'm Yoko Gushiken.
00:45Chochune!
00:47I'm a southpaw, but when I write, I'm right.
00:49I'm Yoko Gushiken.
00:50Chochune!
00:52I'm really going to get sued, so please don't.
00:55Let's call her Gushiken Masanori.
00:58I'm Gushiken Masanori.
01:00Chochune!
01:02Can you say hello to her?
01:05Konnichiwa!
01:08What did Gushiken say?
01:11Please imitate her.
01:14Chochune!
01:16Haisai Chochune!
01:19That's what she said.
01:21She gave us all the information about Okinawa.
01:24That's what she said.
01:26Haisai Chochune!
01:31We're going on an exciting walk with two people.
01:34About 90% of the island is a jungle.
01:37We're going to Iriomote Island, which is surrounded by nature.
01:40Konnichiwa!
01:43It's so big.
01:45We're going to look at the mangroves up close.
01:49It feels so good.
01:51I didn't know mangroves were so famous all over the country.
01:54I didn't know mangroves were so famous all over the country.
02:00It's so good.
02:02We're so excited to eat Yaeyama Soba, a specialty of the island.
02:08This is crazy.
02:14We're going to a paradise sold by a taxi driver.
02:24It's like this.
02:26Say something.
02:28Iriomote Island
02:33It takes about an hour by plane from the main island of Okinawa to Ishigaki Island.
02:38We're going to Iriomote Island by ferry from Ishigaki Port.
02:45We're going to Iriomote Island by ferry.
02:49It takes about 45 minutes by ferry from Ishigaki Island.
02:52That's a long time.
02:54It's longer than I thought.
02:56If you look at the map, it's close to here.
02:59What kind of map did you look at?
03:02It depends on the map.
03:04I feel like I can jump there.
03:07Most of the island of Iriomote Island is a rainforest jungle.
03:11The entire island is designated as a national park.
03:15In addition, it was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2021.
03:23Iriomote Island is a popular tourist spot where about 2400 people visit every year.
03:33In addition, there are rare animals that can only be found on this island.
03:41What is it?
03:42Iriomote Masanori
03:44Is there such a thing?
03:46Is there such a thing?
03:48I want to see it.
03:50According to the map, there are about 100 of them.
03:54Is that all there is?
03:56Is that all there is?
03:57Please tell me the correct answer again.
04:00Let's go to Iriomote Mountain.
04:02I've heard of it, but I've seen it in a picture book.
04:08I have a scary image.
04:11What does it look like?
04:14It's scary.
04:23It's really scary.
04:25It's really scary.
04:27It takes about 45 minutes by wave.
04:30We have arrived at Iriomote Island.
04:35We have arrived.
04:37We have arrived.
04:39We have arrived.
04:42This is the first time we have landed on Iriomote Island.
04:47Please say hello.
04:49Hello.
04:51Hello.
04:53Welcome to Iriomote Island.
04:55Nice to meet you.
04:56This time, we will be guided by Mr. Hirakawa of Kamu-Club Sorakaze.
05:00Nice to meet you.
05:02I'm Hirakawa. Nice to meet you.
05:04We came to Iriomote Island for the first time.
05:07What is the charm of this place?
05:09The warmth of the people.
05:13There are many good people in this area.
05:16The sea and mountains are the best in Japan.
05:21It's full of stars at night.
05:25We can't stay together until night.
05:28Let's do our best.
05:31Let's go to a beautiful place.
05:34The hotness is the best in Japan.
05:37The Kansai people are very energetic.
05:41Mr. Hirakawa is the representative of Kamu-Club Sorakaze.
05:44You can enjoy activities such as kayaking, trekking, snorkeling, etc.
05:48You can enjoy the nature of Iriomote Island all year round.
05:54This time, we will experience kayaking on the popular tour course,
05:57Mairagawa, where mangroves are delicious.
06:03It takes about 30 minutes on one side and 30 minutes on the other side.
06:06It takes about an hour.
06:08Let's do our best for an hour.
06:10Aya-chan, I'll go with you.
06:16Did you decide to go with us?
06:18Yes.
06:20I don't want to ride with you.
06:24I don't want to ride with you either.
06:29The person sitting in the back is the person with the heaviest body weight.
06:33If it's you two, I think it's Masanori-san.
06:36Masanori-san is sitting in the back.
06:39So, I think it's all Masanori-san's fault.
06:41Do you know which side is right and left?
06:45The person holding chopsticks is on the right.
06:48The person holding a bowl is on the left.
06:51You decided to shout, didn't you?
06:52Please say chopsticks, bowl, chopsticks.
06:56I don't know that.
06:58What are you talking about?
07:01Let's go.
07:05Let's go.
07:07Let's go home.
07:09Let's do our best.
07:13It feels good.
07:15It's the best.
07:16We don't have to say hello.
07:18Really?
07:19Really.
07:20How is it?
07:21Masanori-san, are you in sync?
07:22Yes.
07:23Let's go to Nishikigai.
07:24Masanori-san, do you know what a mangrove is?
07:27I'm impressed for the first time.
07:30I've never seen a tree like this in a Toriyama Akira manga.
07:33I've only seen it on TV.
07:35Is it the name of a tree?
07:37Yes, it's the name of a tree.
07:39So, it's like a forest.
07:41Is it only found in warm areas?
07:43That's right.
07:44The northernmost part of Japan is Tanegashima.
07:48So, it's divided from Tanegashima to the south.
07:52More than two-thirds of Japanese mangroves are found only in Iriomote Island.
07:58That's amazing.
07:59Two-thirds?
08:00In Japan, only Iriomote Island has so many mangroves.
08:05Masanori-san, do you have any questions for Mr. Hirakawa?
08:09Mr. Mitsumangrove is famous for mangroves all over the country.
08:16I don't know that.
08:19I see something white.
08:22It's a bird.
08:23It's a bird called Chusagi.
08:27It has a long neck.
08:29Yes, it has a long neck and a yellow beak.
08:34Do you do it alone?
08:37What?
08:38Do you do it alone?
08:40I do it alone a lot.
08:42I do it alone a lot.
08:44Are you okay? Aren't you tired?
08:45I'm okay.
08:46That's amazing.
08:47Masanori-san can't speak anymore.
08:50I'm doing it.
08:52Ohashi, Ochawan, Ohashi, Ochawan, Ohashi, Ochawan.
09:01When you say Ohashi, it looks like a spoon.
09:04Maybe it's better to say spoon.
09:05What do you mean?
09:06Spoon, Ochawan, Spoon.
09:09Are you eating curry now?
09:12Yes, I'm imagining what I'm eating.
09:15How was it?
09:18It was fun.
09:21I wanted to stay longer.
09:23About six hours.
09:25Did you go up?
09:26I wanted to go up and doze off.
09:29Your face was suffering in the middle.
09:32I wanted to doze off like that.
09:35I've only seen it on TV, but I can see it with my eyes.
09:40I think it's amazing to sell.
09:44You go there.
09:46If I hadn't done that, I wouldn't have come here.
09:49We did our best.
09:51We really did our best.
09:54I'm impressed.
09:58After this, they went to eat rice on the island for the first time.
10:05It's delicious.
10:07This is delicious.
10:08It's amazing.
10:14A book was born from Norinori Sampo.
10:18Have we been here before?
10:20I think so.
10:22It's on sale.
10:31Norinori Sampo in Nishikigoi.
10:33After being healed by nature, let's eat rice on the island of Iriomote Island.
10:39Let's eat rice on the island of Iriomote Island.
10:42Mr. Hirakawa, what's next?
10:44I'm hungry, so let's eat rice.
10:47That's a good idea.
10:49There is a very delicious restaurant that opened recently.
10:53Please enjoy the island cuisine.
10:55This restaurant is called Umikaze.
10:59My mother runs this restaurant.
11:02It's a nice atmosphere.
11:05It's like Okinawa.
11:07Let's eat local food.
11:09Let's eat.
11:12See you later.
11:15Let's eat right away.
11:21Hello.
11:23Hello.
11:29Mr. Yamashiro, the owner of Umikaze, is from Iriomote Island.
11:35He worked at a bento shop in Tokyo for about 40 years.
11:40He retired three years ago.
11:42He opened this restaurant in October 2024.
11:46What is this restaurant's specialty?
11:49This is Yaeyama Soba.
11:53This is Umuzuna-chan.
11:56Umuzuna-chan.
11:59This is called Ashinaga Kakuredako.
12:03What is your real name?
12:06I haven't announced it yet.
12:10I see.
12:12My real name is Ashinaga Kakuredako.
12:15Mr. Yamashiro,
12:17I heard that you have a connection with an artist from Ishigaki Island.
12:22What do you think it is?
12:24It's Yoko Gushiken.
12:27Who?
12:32Her daughter.
12:34Can I ask you the answer?
12:37Rimi Natsukawa's mother and I are cousins.
12:42Is that so?
12:45I've heard her sing.
12:48Was Rimi good at singing?
12:51She was good.
12:53She often sang at karaoke.
12:56Have you ever been to this restaurant?
12:58Yes, I have.
12:59My mother used to run this restaurant.
13:02Is that so?
13:03Yes.
13:04I run the restaurant.
13:06I see.
13:08I came here the other day.
13:11You often come here.
13:13That's right.
13:14I look forward to working with you.
13:18Here you go.
13:21It looks delicious.
13:23What is it?
13:24This is Yayama soba.
13:26And this is bamboo shoot.
13:29It's the best.
13:37It's delicious.
13:40It has a strong flavor.
13:45It's delicious.
13:48It's delicious.
13:51It's delicious.
13:57It's delicious.
13:58It's like the noodles of CHAMPON.
14:01The noodles are chewy.
14:03It's soft.
14:04What is this soup?
14:06It's pork bones.
14:08It's pork bones.
14:09It's delicious.
14:10The gentle umami and sweetness of the pork are mixed with the noodles.
14:15It's delicious.
14:16Can I eat this?
14:21I can't eat this.
14:25He can't control the timing.
14:31It's a mangrove.
14:35It's the Okinawa version.
14:39It's my first time to eat this.
14:40When do you eat this?
14:42When it's delicious.
14:44I can't control myself.
14:46So I eat this.
14:48I can't control myself when I'm talking.
14:50I'm sorry.
14:51Bamboo shoot rice is very delicious.
14:53I'll eat bamboo shoot rice.
14:55Where did you get this bamboo shoot?
14:58It's from my field.
15:01Is that so?
15:02It's from your field.
15:03It's chewy.
15:04It's delicious.
15:05It's crispy.
15:07It's gentle.
15:08You can change the taste of this.
15:12Is this spicy?
15:13This is chili pepper.
15:14Is this chili pepper?
15:15Yes.
15:16What do you use this chili pepper for?
15:18I use this for abalone.
15:21I'll eat this a little.
15:22I'll eat this a little.
15:26Was that too much?
15:27That was too much.
15:28Wait a minute.
15:29Drink this.
15:30Wait a minute.
15:32What's wrong with me?
15:33Is this okay?
15:37This is dangerous.
15:41I'm thirsty.
15:43This is dangerous.
15:45This is dangerous.
15:49I'm thirsty.
15:53I'm thirsty.
15:55I put too much in my mouth.
15:57It's getting warm.
15:59That's good.
16:00It's warm.
16:02It's not transparent.
16:07It's hot and warm.
16:09Another popular menu is bamboo shoot fried rice.
16:13Bamboo shoot fried rice is a long-legged octopus in Okinawa dialect.
16:18It has a small head and long legs.
16:22It can be caught in the sea nearby.
16:26I heard you can catch it with your hands.
16:28I catch it with my hands.
16:31When the tide is low, I walk to the sand beach.
16:36I spread my hands there.
16:40Why don't you go with the sea?
16:44Do you want to go to the sea first?
16:46No.
16:47Do you understand that?
16:48I have this much water.
16:50Isn't that not enough?
16:54You sound like an octopus.
16:57You sound like an octopus.
17:01You sound like an octopus.
17:03You sound like an octopus.
17:05I'm an octopus.
17:07That's right.
17:08I respect octopuses.
17:11Let's eat.
17:12Can I eat it?
17:14It's fine.
17:22Is this the taste of octopus?
17:24That's right.
17:25I see.
17:28It's good.
17:30It's good.
17:31It's good.
17:32It's good.
17:33It has a good texture.
17:35It has a good texture.
17:37I've eaten squid, but I haven't eaten octopus.
17:40It's really small, but it has a good texture.
17:44It's good.
17:45It's really good.
17:47It's really good.
17:49It's the best.
17:50I can only eat this.
17:52It's great.
17:56We've moved to a place where we're full.
17:59Where are we, Mr. Hirakawa?
18:01This is Yubujima.
18:03Yubujima.
18:04I think it's the best tourist spot in Yayama.
18:08Yubujima is only 400 metres away from Iriomote Island.
18:13It's a small island that you can walk around for an hour.
18:19The way to Yubujima is by water buffalo.
18:22Water buffalo have been breeding on the island for a long time.
18:29Hello.
18:33Good morning.
18:34The person we're going to ride on is...
18:36It's Mr Mirai.
18:37Mr Mirai.
18:38Mr Mirai.
18:39What's your personality like?
18:41I'm a high school student.
18:42A high school student.
18:44I'm a photographer.
18:46How old are you, Mr Mirai?
18:47I'm 18 years old.
18:48Please multiply that by three.
18:50I'm 54 years old.
18:53Isn't that one year older than you?
18:55No way.
18:57It's three.
18:58Why did you multiply it by three?
18:59It's 18 times three.
19:0130 times three is 24.
19:03That's right.
19:04It's one year older than me.
19:07After this, they're going to Yubujima, a paradise of tropical fish by water buffalo.
19:14Ussissi.
19:24They're going to Yubujima, a paradise of tropical fish by water buffalo.
19:33Hello.
19:34Hello.
19:35Hello.
19:36We'll take you to Yubujima.
19:39Mr Mirai, are you okay?
19:41I'm totally fine.
19:43How long does it take to get to the other side of the island?
19:46It takes about eight minutes.
19:49When you enter the sea, you have to pee before you leave.
19:53I see.
19:54It's the same as you.
19:56When you take a bath, you have to pee.
19:58I see.
20:00He's peeing.
20:01He's peeing.
20:02I can see the glitter.
20:04This is the best part.
20:07He's strong.
20:09I can feel the power of the waves.
20:12There's a lot of sand.
20:14I can feel the waves moving one by one.
20:18As the water buffalo waves slowly,
20:24it's the third lap.
20:25It's a famous song from Okinawa.
20:28It's beautiful.
20:59Okay.
21:01Thank you very much.
21:03You showed us your heart.
21:06I'm glad we had a good enemy.
21:08You're right.
21:10You're good at what you usually do.
21:14Mr Masanori.
21:15I heard that we can meet the water buffalo ahead.
21:18I want to meet them.
21:21Can we?
21:23This is Louis, a boy.
21:24He's 11 years old.
21:26He's warm.
21:28Louis.
21:29His hair is harder than I thought.
21:33You're right.
21:35He's warm.
21:36His hair is thin.
21:37He has more hair than I do.
21:39You're right.
21:40I lost to Louis.
21:43Let's touch his feet.
21:44Can I touch his feet?
21:45It's amazing.
21:47Can I touch his feet?
21:48Can I touch his feet?
21:49Can I touch his feet?
21:51He has one-third of the nerves in his feet.
21:54And his feet are hollow.
21:56Are his feet hollow?
21:57Yes, they are hollow.
21:58I can touch his feet.
22:00Doesn't it hurt?
22:01No, it doesn't.
22:02He has a kind face.
22:04He has a kind face.
22:06Louis, look straight ahead.
22:08Let's take a picture together.
22:11One, two, three.
22:12Ushishi.
22:14Let's check it out.
22:16It's perfect.
22:18It's perfect.
22:20After taking a commemorative photo with Louis,
22:23the tour is over.
22:27Today, we enjoyed Iriomote and Yubujima.
22:32How was it?
22:33It was magnificent.
22:34You're right.
22:36We became one with nature.
22:38It was great.
22:39We experienced everything we've never experienced before.
22:42Yes.
22:43I think people should come here at least once a year.
22:47What we did today is just a part of it.
22:50There are more fields and more activities.
22:54You can visit many places in a day.
22:56Yes, you're right.
22:57We visited Yubujima.
23:00Now we know a lot about this island.
23:03Mr. Masanori.
23:04Please say something to the viewers.
23:07To the viewers,
23:09be sure to pee before you leave.
23:12That's right.
23:13That's right.
23:15That's not right.
23:17That's not right.
