Takeshi's Castle (2023)

The program that thrilled millions of viewers and the trauma team at Kawasaki Hospital is back. In this first episode, the contestants jubilantly throw themselves against all the pain that gravity, corchopan and colored curbs have to offer. And, attention, that among the participants we have.... A SPANIARD!

The menu of today's episode consists of contestants kneaded by rollers, chased by maniacs, smeared with ink, thrown into ponds, centrifuged by mushrooms and, finally, riddled with balls. Oh, and all of this while Eva Soriano, Dani Rovira and Jorge Ponce are getting their asses kicked. And we can also fry an egg for you.

Everyone to their posts, General Tani is coming! But there are more surprises: we also have the great Luis Tosar! In the third chapter we will force the participants to climb the already known "Wall of lacerations" and to try Takeshi's new torture toy: "Breaking the prism". From the Community of Madrid comes a star signing in "Un, dos, tres, el escondite japonés".

This chapter contains hanging bridges, false doors, witches, fortune tellers and warriors with hair like a trap singer. Well, let's add Soriano, Ponce and Rovira to the list with their funniest voices, shall we? People are so hard to please.

We come to the Ecuador of the contest. Because, yes, this really is a contest. This episode kicks off with a revelation that will mark a before and after in the life of the Newly Divorced. But this is not the only exclusive of the show: Dani, Eva and Ponce gut the ins and outs of "El muro de las laceraciones", "Las Zamburguesas", "Los champiñautas" and "Chori-pam" in El Chiringuito de Nipones.

In this chapter the participants sit in a circle and kindly discuss Russian literature from the beginning of the century... What not! They fall down, hit each other, get wet and kick themselves in "Las Zamburguesas", in "Romperse la prisma" and in "Leticia Bolera" with an old acquaintance! Cañas, cañas, cañas!

The final challenge at Takeshi's castle! The excitement in the realm of hosts is getting more and more intense! In this penultimate episode, our presenters finally receive a visit from the beloved Takeshi Kitano who, from his throne at the front line of the pond, will watch the survivors having a hard time in the Premium version tests with extra difficulty. Two for one in stitch-ups!

The participants' journey comes to an end. The best of the best have been reweighed, rewashed, cured and retreaded to face the castle's double seal of quality tests. Only the worthy will be able to take on Takeshi Kitano himself in the final test... Unless he climbs into a giant robot and goes off to destroy Tokyo. But that shouldn't happen, should it?
