Fans rejoiced, exclaiming "A bountiful harvest of KyomoJuri!" and "Too much content!" in response to the unpredictable development of their shogi match within the program and their affectionate interactions.

Especially when Taiga Kyomoto made the shocking move of "eating the king," viewers reacted with surprise and laughter. In response to this chaotic situation, fellow member Hokuto Matsumura quickly stepped in as a "commentator," livening up the scene with accurate yet humorous play-by-play. Guests Mitsuki Takahata and Aoi Miyazaki were also seen reading out KyomoJuri's unique match plays and gently expressing surprise at SixTONES's numerous antics, contributing to a warm atmosphere throughout the program.

Showcasing Charm as "Balancers," Fans Anticipate Further Success

Beyond the shogi match, many intimate interactions between the two were observed, described by some as "KyomoJuri flirting next to ChooChooTRAIN." Fans responded enthusiastically with comments like "KyomoJuri is too cuteeeeee," and many posts expressed how their cuteness was soothing. There was also the observation that "the questions clearly showed KyomoJuri acting as balancers." Their natural brightness and free-spiritedness made this episode highlight their presence, bringing an exquisite balance to the program.

This episode of "Golden SixTONES" fully showcased KyomoJuri's appeal, bringing smiles and conversation to many viewers. Their unpredictable chemistry continues to be something to watch out for.
