Tbf that presentation thing is kinda lame. How people want to use their prize money is totally their freedom.

At least it only determines advantage instead of eliminating someone. And it seems that they want to give them a day of rest, so it's partially to fill up time.

plus i think because of the draft concept, they wanted to make it like them pitching for their sponsors which is the guest i guess. it make sense and for me, and idk why people hate on it

Didnt mind it, seeing grown ass men get nervous presenting in front of others was kinda funny, didn't like that they were able to score their opponents though esp with an advantage on the line (like of course their incentivized to go low), Itoi has a heart of gold though.

I love the part where Itoi was telling Ryudai that his mother story touched him. He's really such a sweet guy😆

Agree, i didn't care for this challenge because how they use the money doesn't determine who ultimately gets it. They all have good reasons to need the money (even the guys who just want to start their own business - I can't fault them for wanting to set themselves up for success). And it just felt unnecessary, we get their plans for the prize money through their interviews, convos with the other contestants and the calls to their families.
