The venue was packed!　The MC was director Kensaku Kobayashi, who also directed the film. From the stage, "Patarillo!" When the background music "Dancing Namahage Boy" familiar to fans started playing, the tension in the hall rose to MAX!　With the same momentum, Ryo Kato, Hiroki Sana, and Mineo Mayo took the stage. The audience cheered for them!　Kato was dressed as the character!　It was just like the real Patarillo!

After the line-up on stage, each of them gave a few words of greeting.
Mayo said, "I was worried about whether people would show up this late, but so many people showed up. I guess they must be really bored (laughs). He joked sarcastically to the delight of the audience.

Kato said, "Thank you very much for coming today. When we first started the event, I was worried about whether people would show up, but I am glad that so many people came. I am also very happy to hear that many people who are not here today have applied for the event. I am really glad that this day has come. Let's have fun together like a pajama party! Director Kobayashi also commented, "It's like a pajama party for everyone!

Director Kobayashi also commented loosely, "Did you bring your pajamas? Director Kobayashi also commented loosely (laugh).

I'm Hiroki Sana, who plays the role of Malaich!　This is my first time to greet the audience on stage, and I can smell the popcorn (laughs). When asked about his constant use of his body to express his emotions while speaking, he replied, "I love Patarillo, I love Patarillo. I want this day to be a day where I can feel your love too!" The audience was in a meltdown when she threw a kiss to the audience with the comment, "I love Patarillo!

After that, they talked about various topics!
First, he talked about the differences between the stage version and the movie version. The audience laughed out loud when Kato said about the poster, "It's just a movie version of the stage version, so please don't get your hopes up!
When Kato commented on the poster, "We used the visuals from the stage, didn't we?" Director Kobayashi told him, "We're using them all over again," which again drew laughter.
He also commented, "I'm sorry that my name was the only one on the poster while Mr. Aikawa and Mr. Nishioka were in the film. Kato commented on the quality of the film, "I can't look at it objectively because I've been involved in this film for so long. I love ego searches, so please keep murmuring your impressions! He commented confidently, "I love ego searches. I'm just doing what I've done on stage for the movie. So you certainly shouldn't have such high expectations (laughs)! The director's stunned expression said, "Nothing's going to expand! The room was filled with laughter at the director's stunned expression.

The audience laughed at the director's stunned expression, saying, "Nothing's expanded! I can't believe we get to see it on such a big screen this time! Kato said excitedly!
Then Mayo said, "I wonder what will happen at the end when Kato-kun turns into a giant..." and spoiler alert! Then, Mayo said, "I didn't expect to be spoiled! I told you! And the last one! (laugh)" "Why did you say that? (Why did you say that?)," and "Why did you say that? It's going to be huge at the end!" He once again declared, "It's going to be huge at the end!

Kato told the audience about the highlights of the film. However, Mayo criticized the film, saying, "To say it's good, it's a homage, but to say it's bad, it's a pastiche. The situation was chaotic, with the director calling out, "If you think something is cracked, let's say it is cracked! (laugh).

During the photo session, the audience put on the onion hats that had been distributed in advance! In no time at all, a total of about 500 onion troops were born!
This spectacular scene was just like an onion squad pledging allegiance to His Highness Patarillo!　Kato could hardly hide his excitement. The director gave a self-deprecating self-criticism, saying, "It looks like a big hit," and "This movie is impossible!　His Highness Patarillo Kato, in character, said, "Take the pictures you took today and spread them on Twitter! and ordered the onion squad in the hall to "Spread the photos you took today on Twitter!
