[Easy to Imitate] Comedian Impressions: Crowd-Pleasing Entertainment/Performance Ideas (31–40)
Shun Shun Clinic P’s Hey Hey Doctor
Shunshun Clinic P, popular on Hey Hey Doctor.
He’s actually a real doctor, and this bit where he sings and dances about doctor “relatable moments” might be one of the easier ones to do, with costumes that are simple to coordinate.
Adding dancer nurses could make it even more fun for the audience to watch.
Even if you’re not a doctor, this might be your chance to become one—at least for a moment.
R Fujimoto
R Fujimoto has become well-known for his Vegeta impression from the wildly popular manga Dragon Ball.
He’s also won numerous awards, such as the Dynamite Kansai Young Master championship and becoming the third Middleweight Champion of Gag Gallery 23.
The hallmark of his impression is Vegeta’s high-handed, domineering way of speaking.
If you mix in intimidating lines like “I’ll erase you!” it’ll sound more and more like him.
A go-to gag is parodying Vegeta’s lines, like “Tch, what a filthy ____!” Teaming up with someone who can do a Son Goku impression is also a solid idea!
Suehirogarizu
Although they didn’t make it to the finals of the 2019 M-1, Suerihogarizu may have left the strongest impression among the contestants.
Their roles aren’t strictly divided into boke and tsukkomi, and they punctuate each bit by striking a hand drum with a sharp “pon” to wrap it up.
A hallmark of their act is expressing modern terms entirely in classical Japanese—calling a television a “magic lantern,” a date “a secret tryst,” and so on.
Dropping in lines like ito okashi and ito aware—the phrases you learned in middle or high school—at key moments gives it an authentic feel.
Since their manzai leans heavily on scripted, line-driven delivery, it’s a great fit for people who are good at memorization.
Yuriyan Retriever
Yuriyan Retriever is a female comedian who enjoys strong popularity among young people, especially for her rhythm-based and English-themed routines.
Her bits are very easy to understand, so people will recognize them right away if you do an impression.
Since she uses English and piano in her acts, you could do impressions that make good use of those skills.
Doburokku
Doburock is a two-man comedy duo with professional-level singing skills and impactful bits that bring the house down.
Despite belonging to Asai Kikaku, a talent agency known for its no-dirty-jokes policy, they won King of Conte 2019 with a risqué routine—proof of the high quality of their material.
Thanks to hit bits like their signature “Moshikatte Dakedo” and the fact that they’ve released multiple CDs, they’re widely recognized, making their acts easy to imitate at parties and weddings—perfect for entertainment segments or performances.
However, because many of their jokes are surprisingly risqué, it’s important to choose material that suits the audience and setting.

Masaru Yumeya
Masaru Yumeya is quite a quirky comedian, and in a way that makes him easy to imitate.
I’ve heard he originally worked as a child actor, so he’s been in showbiz for a long time.
If you just do the “I want to eat pancakes” bit, people will probably get who you’re doing, so try to capture that floaty, whimsical vibe.
If you give it a genderless feel, it should go over well whether it’s performed by a woman or a man.
Identity
They are a duo formed by two people who met at a vocational school.
They are well known for sketches that use impressions of Masako Nozawa, the voice actor for Son Goku in the anime Dragon Ball.
Their impersonations are extremely high quality and have been highly praised as sounding true to the original, not only by comedy fans but also by Dragon Ball fans.
Doing the impression will definitely get the crowd going, but because it’s very difficult, it takes practice to master.
If you can pull it off well, it’s sure to be a big hit.
