Liven up Christmas! Popular party goods

I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

Dice Talk

Dice Talk

The “Dice Talk” segment that became a staple on Kazuki Kosakai’s talk variety show “Lion no Gokigenyō” involves rolling a die with a different talk prompt on each of its six faces and then chatting based on the prompt that comes up.

While products similar to the ones used on the show are available for purchase, we recommend making your own with topics tailored to the people gathered! It’s the perfect game for deepening communication—sharing all sorts of stories with family and friends, including ones you’ve never heard before.

This Christmas, let’s enjoy a fun, chat-filled time together!

Funny Face Match

Snow Man [Funny Face Match!?] 100-Yen Shop Board Game... Let’s do it!!

Funny Face Match

These days, even 100-yen shops carry fun, exciting games.

“Funny Face Match” is one of them—a card game sold at 100-yen shops that kids and adults can enjoy together.

The dealer draws one card from the blue deck and holds it so that everyone else can see it, but not the dealer.

Everyone makes the funny face shown on the card, and the dealer picks the card from the table that they think it is.

If it matches, that’s correct; the card is then given to the person whose face most closely resembled the card, and the number of cards you collect becomes your score.

It’s a game where the fun comes from making silly faces!

whoopee cushion

Shoko Nakagawa whoopee cushion prank

whoopee cushion

The whoopee cushion is a classic prank that’s widely known.

It’s often used on variety shows, so many people have probably seen one.

A whoopee cushion is a party gag that’s hidden under a cushion or seat pad.

When pressure is applied from above, it makes a “brrrpp” sound like a fart.

If you hide it under a cushion, the moment someone sits down, it sounds as if that person farted.

It might embarrass the target, but it’s sure to liven up the mood!

Voice-changing gas

I’m gonna make my cousin and my big bro say lines you’d absolutely never say after inhaling helium!

Voice-changing gas

When someone makes a funny voice, it’s somehow amusing, isn’t it? Making a weird voice is also effective when you want to make people laugh, but some folks don’t know how to do it.

That’s when helium gas—the kind used to float balloons—comes in handy.

If you take a big breath of it, your speaking voice will change in a curious way.

You’ll sound like you have a high, raspy voice, almost like the Minions.

You might feel strange because you can produce a voice you could never make when talking normally.

Especially if your natural voice is low or you usually speak in a cool manner, people will be surprised by the contrast.
