My Take
Koji Kato is a Hokkaido comedian who spent close to two decades fronting a national morning show, which should not have worked at all. His comic register is loud, blunt and faintly dangerous, the opposite of what breakfast television normally wants, and somehow he turned that into the reason people tuned in. He is half of the duo Gokuraku Tombo, held the act together through his partner's long absence, and in 2019 said on live television that he would walk away from his agency if it did not start behaving decently. He did leave, and built his own company instead. People who say the expensive thing out loud rarely last this long.
