■Production/Staff Production work: FANY Studio Production: Yoshimoto Kogyo Chief Producer: Shohei Kudo (Yoshimoto Kogyo) General Director: Asuka Kataoka ■Synopsis The story goes back to October 2023. At age 53, Takashi Okamura was living a settled life as a comedian. Amidst all this, this project quietly began to move forward in order to awaken him. At the time, no one knew that this would become his longest-running project, spanning three years. When he was young, Takashi Okamura admired the fierce “comedian” Okamura Takashi. He visited the scene where the “MM Group,” a group of today’s most popular comedians, was waiting. There, he tried his hand at parkour, an extreme sport originating in France. MM Group wanted to use parkour to awaken Takashi Okamura. He was sluggish. He was completely out of shape. Then tragedy struck Okamura. How could this happen? No, it was inevitable that tragedy would befall his sluggish body. The
53-year-old comedian was confronted with the fact that he had ruptured his Achilles tendon. Fate is not a coincidence, it is “inevitable.” Outside, a sudden downpour seemed to reflect the feelings of Okamura and his staff. Normally, the project would be completely canceled. Meanwhile, the shriveled blue flame inside Okamura blazed bright red. Not only Okamura, but the staff, performers, and everyone involved who witnessed him like that “never gave up.” Takashi Okamura never gave up, undergoing surgery, rehabilitation, and training to completely heal his injuries. With gratitude for parkour, he decided to try again. Waiting for the newly awakened Takashi Okamura was LAPONE Entertainment. It was his first “offer” in seven years. What was the shocking offer awaiting the delighted Takashi Okamura!? And then, on February 2, 2025, at LAPOSTA 2025, what happened in front of 50,000 people at Tokyo Dome? Was it a “miracle” or “inevitable through hard work”? What those who saw it felt is the truth. This streaming program will run for a total of approximately seven hours, making it quite different from the traditional Offer series. Please be sure to check out this documentary, which spans 484 days, the longest period of Ninety-Nine’s Okamura Takashi’s career as a comedian.
