Program Overview

'LAST CALL' is the first and largest domestic cabaret hostess audition program, which began distribution on January 4, 2026. Hosted by Yuji Mizoguchi and Roland, and produced by Masato Ochi, who worked on 'Gakkou e Ikou!' and 'Gachinko!', the show features 18 active and legendary top hostesses as judges. Under the banner of 'Birth of a Cabaret Star' and 'Nightlife Industry Image Update,' the 'Cinderellas'—the applicants—take on various trials. Winners receive up to 10 million yen in cosmetic surgery support from the main sponsor, SBC Shonan Beauty Clinic. Produced with broadcast-quality aesthetics and structure using a Fuji TV studio, it is a new-era reality program distributed every Sunday at 9:00 PM on YouTube.

### Three Audition Rounds

The panel evaluates contestants based on the following three criteria: - High-Pressure Interview: Assessing motives, determination, and character through Q&A. - Divine Doctor Time: Visual potential diagnosis by SBC Shonan Beauty Clinic's medical team. - Sexual Harassment Time: Testing customer service skills and mental toughness through simulations of handling 'difficult customers'.

Through these trials, the Cinderellas express their individuality and resolve.
