Like a mirror image, Mucci’s son behaves and says the same things as him, and Mucci is frightened. Inoue says, “The body of a person who encounters a doppelganger is already corroded, and death will come soon.” This is because he didn’t remove his ears when he time-traveled, but when his master (Baku Numata) points out that his ears are bleeding, Mucci screams. He ran out of the store.

Mucci-senpai (Hikomaro) of Reiwa is still alive and well.” This time, the audience burst into laughter.
