Yuichiro Umehara, who plays the main character, Makuro Otoko, hosted an open live broadcast of the web program "Young Heart Jack," which is broadcast every other Tuesday. The guest was UMI☆KUUN, who is in charge of the OP theme. Here is the report.


On this day, Yuichiro Umehara, dressed in a doctor's coat as he usually does on "Young Heart Jack," and UMI☆KUUN (OP artist), dressed as Black Jack, appeared as guests.

First, there was a "mail-operation" corner. In this corner, they literally answered the e-mails from the audience. The two artists, who are both from Nagoya and Ehime, answered questions such as, "Is there anything that surprised you when you came to Tokyo? We would also like to hear them speak in their dialects! Do you have any animal mimicry that you are good at? Please do so!" The audience seemed to enjoy the interaction between the two as they answered these questions.

After UMI☆KUUN talked about the recording of the OP theme song "I am Just Feeling Alive" and what to listen to in the song, the audience was treated to a special live performance. The audience was thrilled by her powerful and elongated singing voice and performance.

In the "Clinical Practice" corner that followed, the students were challenged with various tasks to become as dexterous as Black Jack. The challenge for this day was to stack toilet paper, and they worked together with UMI☆KUUN to reach a total of over 28 pieces, hoping for a big hit with "I am Just Feeling Alive". They managed to pile them up while cooperating, but in the end, with a little support (?), they succeeded in the challenge. They succeeded in their challenge.

After the "Heart Jack Voice" segment, where the audience was asked to say medical terms they wanted Umehara to say to win their hearts, it was time for the final announcement segment. The guest characters and guest voice actors for the "Mujocho" part from episode 9, which had not yet been announced, were announced. In addition, Hikaru Midorikawa will play Takara, Daisuke Hirakawa will play Sabame, Junji Mashima will play Tano, Eriko Matsui will play Mio, Eriko Matsui will play Rouzu, Haichiyo Daichi will play Rouzu, Kosei Tomita will play Shunsaku Ban, and Takehito Koyasu will play Keikou Daigo, making for a total of eight new announcements that are very exciting.

It was also announced that [TV anime "Young Black Jack" Blu-ray & DVD release commemorative event - Today is a Special Day -] will be held on April 17, 2016 (Sun) at Laforet Museum Roppongi. Finally, UMI☆KUUN and Umehara gave their comments to the fans and viewers who visited the venue, and the event was regrettably closed.
