On KAKUSHIGOTO‘s 5th Episode, “Put Up!”, Kakushi was sent to a hotel to work on his manuscript. Complaining that he “cannot draw manga without being in loose clothing”, Kakushi changes into a hotel bathrobe, which leads to his assistants following suit.

Kakushi’s assistant, Ami Kamei (CV: Ayane Sakura), claims the event to be a “Bathrobe Party”, which led to a discussion on Twitter.

Fans posted comments such as:
