It says here they 書く a new contract (specifically 書かせれた "made to write"). I had assumed it meant they signed the contract, but in a later panel, they are asked to sign them. So I'm not sure exactly what's happening here. Maybe there's some chance for negotiation with the new contract? Or maybe it's because of the "etc", i.e. whatever additional documents they are dealing with. I'm not sure.

Maybe some legal quirk where if it's the employee who is "initiating" the contract change (rather than the company) then there's less recourse the employee can take later, but idk that's a guess

Oh poo poo, if even Yoriko is panicking they're definitely hosed.

That said, how could they not see this coming? It's a pretty obvious way to test their bullshit.

If it isn't a live broadcast, maybe they can pool their money to convince the network not to air it. If this were in America, they could probably just sue on defamation claims but that kind of bullshit probably doesn't work in Japan.

Yes, who could have possibly seen something like this coming? You're on a show about proving ghosts are real or something and they asked you how you see auras and they were prepared for what was probably the most obvious answer to that question.

So in the 30-40 years they've been grifting, not a single person has thought to put a sheet on someone and ask them to read their bullshit aura? They've never even thought "Hey so, what if someone puts on a mask or hides behind something?".

Either these grifters got really lucky or the world around them is extremly dumb.

On the other hand, in shame-oriented cultures you can rely on people not exposing you because they're the ones everyone will get made at for causing you to lose face.

Before this, for public appearances, they would only stick to friendly audiences with highly scripted events, often times with guests who would play along even if Enami made a mistake here or there. As Enami is retiring they have deliberately picked a "challenge" for their final public appearance which has led to this.
