Starring “The Star of the North,” aka Yo Oizumi, “The Mister Not-Quite of the North,” aka Shigeyuki Sato, and “The Iron Stomach,” aka HTB announcer Mami Sato, this show follows the journey of the “Pig Family” as they go around Japan in search of the most delicious and scrumptious foods in the country. Riding in their Onigiri box car, they go from town to town, stopping by to eat, and then riding again until their next destination. To relieve the stress of traveling and the tension of their stomachs, the cast also goes full force with their hilarious conversations and occasional recreation stops. Make sure to catch Oizumi’s music videos where he sings his favorite songs at beautiful landmarks. A gourmet food fight and a totally new kind of food entertainment show coming straight out of Hokkaido – this is Onigiri. You can enjoy the show not just for its local topics about Hokkaido but also as a guide for popular food and travel spots all over Japan. The second half of the show follows the comedy duo, Oklahoma (Kawano and Fujio), as they go on their journey to promote Onigiri at every single town in Hokkaido. Kawano and Fujio go on separate routes to promote the show, each of them using bingo to decide their next destination. Their method of transportation – hitchhiking. Once they reach their destinations, they either go to a Lawson convenience store to put up the show’s poster there, or if the town doesn’t have a Lawson, they go to the most popular place in town. When will they conquer Hokkaido?
