Tuesday's Peculiarity and Other Reactions

Notably, Tuesday was the only day without a new seasonal regular slot in this announcement. In response, comments on social media suggested that the strong personalities of the existing regulars might be the reason, such as 'Tuesday's characters are too strong to call in a seasonal regular' and 'I always have the impression that no one is usually there. In fact, it would be unnatural if someone new were there on that day (lol).' There were also remarks that the show's MC, Akira Kawashima, had previously commented, 'There's no room to put in a seasonal regular because no one leaves.'

Furthermore, while some fans expressed disappointment that Sakurazaka46's relay appearances, which had been previous seasonal regulars, would be discontinued this time, other comments showed anticipation for their future appearances on the show, saying, 'There's a mysterious sense of security that Sakurazaka will probably appear whenever there's an opening anyway.'

The broadcast starting in July is highly anticipated to see what new energy the diverse group of newly selected seasonal regulars will bring to 'Love It!' mornings.
