MAD5 #11 Features Kukki! and Others in a First-Ever Love Project! Seven Men and Women Live Together Under a Shocking New Rule – Chaos Ensues as Reiwa Roman's Matsui Kemuri Says: 'Don’t Add Shuffle Island Elements!'

ABEMA, the 'New Future Television,' will air episode #11 of its regular variety program 'MAD5 (Mad Five)' on Monday, July 13, 2026, at 11:00 PM JST. The show stars Kukki! from Yasei Bakudan, Hollywood Zakoshishou, Ikeda Kazuma from Shizuru, Kawakita Shigeto from Shinkuu Jessica, and Matsui Kemuri from Reiwa Roman.

'MAD5' is a unique variety program where five individuals with unmatched creativity and strong personalities tackle various themes with their individual flair and explosive energy. The show originated from 'Shushutto Gokurousan,' a YouTube channel launched in October 2024 by Kukki! and Hollywood Zakoshishou, which gained over 400,000 subscribers within a year. After five special episodes aired in January 2026 received strong viewer response, the series has returned as a full 20-episode regular program.

Episode #11, airing on July 13, 2026, kicks off an unprecedented love project by the MAD5 members. While Kemuri monitors from a separate room, Kukki!, Hollywood Zakoshishou, Ikeda, and Kawakita will spend one day living together with three female participants in a luxurious shared house.

However, this project features a shocking, never-before-seen rule: the men must enjoy their romantic interactions without showing 'absolutely forbidden areas' on the women's point-of-view cameras. To comply with this strict rule, the MAD comedians repeatedly turn their backs to the cameras or twist their bodies unnaturally during activities like moving to the kitchen or barbecuing. Kemuri, watching from the monitoring room, delivers fierce critiques at the bizarre scenes.

During the classic dating show segment 'First Impression Check,' the men wait for the women with their eyes closed, striking mysterious 'cool poses'—a strange twist. When the women appear in swimsuits, the comedians' excitement reaches its peak. Kemuri blurts out, 'Don’t add elements like Shuffle Island!' as the men, torn between strict rules and desire, gradually escalate their behavior. The comedians’ tactics evolve into chaotic romantic dynamics.

Who will successfully follow the rules and win the women’s hearts? And what shocking ending awaits at the conclusion of the episode? Don’t miss 'MAD5' Season 1, Episode #11, airing on Monday, July 13, 2026, at 11:00 PM JST.
