Hey guys , im really sorry if this is a recurrent or annoying question, but since its my first time on the subreddit I wouldn't know if its asked a lot.

Is the las vegas no laughing batsu officially the last one? I know there was a comment from matsumoto about the "violence" shtick being frowed upon and that would be part of the reason , but was there anything more?

It's a shame not to see the group in the batsu game, but it could be a great opportunity to expand the format. Imagine Matsumoto and Hamada as "show directors," which we already had in few old batsus, and few comedy groups fighting for main prize of "No laughing champions." Would love to see something like this.

Ehh, the good old "drawer segment" lost forever. What a shame.
