[Entertainment/Performance] Funny impressions recommended for women (31–40)
Calcifer
When it comes to impressions that go over well with women, you can’t leave out Ghibli characters! To appeal to girls, focus on widely loved works like Ghibli or Disney rather than the niche titles that men tend to prefer.
Calcifer is the fire spirit from Howl’s Moving Castle.
His voice and way of speaking are very distinctive, so he should be relatively easy to imitate.
Frieza
The Dragon Ball anime series is a work that remains widely popular today across genders and generations.
There are many famous characters, but Frieza, who was also featured in the movie Resurrection ‘F’, is particularly distinctive.
With many iconic lines like, “My power level is… 530,000,” Frieza is perfect for studying while watching the anime—so give it a try!
Tony Tony Chopper
From the hugely popular manga and anime One Piece, here’s an impression of Tony Tony Chopper, the Straw Hat crew member loved for his cute look and adorable voice.
If you’re a woman, it may be relatively easy to mimic his voice, and you can boost the overall quality by paying attention to the costume as well.
By the way, his voice actor is Ikue Otani, who’s also famous for voicing Pikachu in Pokémon.
Yuriyan Retriever
Many people struggle when choosing material for a party performance.
Instead of forcing yourself to tackle something difficult, why not try a popular, easy bit? One recommendation is comedian Yuriyan Retriever’s routine, “Choshi notchatté!” (roughly, “I got carried away!”).
It’s a handy line that fits most setups—try using “Choshi notchatté!” to create a short sketch.
Characters from Sazae-san
When it comes to Sunday evenings, how about doing impressions of characters from the beloved national anime Sazae-san? There are plenty of characters just within the Sazae family, and many of them are distinctive and well-known.
Popular choices for impressions include Masuo, Anago, and Tara-chan.
If it’s Ikura-chan, just “Babuu!” will do! I think anime character impressions are easier to perform casually and tend to get a better reaction than impressions of real people.

gorilla
Animal impressions are a classic, and they’re easy for girls to understand and a relatively simple way to get laughs.
Imitating a gorilla is common, but it’s also a sure bet.
The video shows a real gorilla, and it’s footage from Higashiyama Zoo, famous for its handsome gorilla.
So go ahead and steal the secrets of being a ‘good-looking gorilla’ from him.
Tetsuya Takeda
This is an impression of Takeshi Tetsuya, Ringo Sheena, and Yoshikazu Mera by the chubby impressionist talent Ringo-chan.
I hear she’s active as a dancer in Ginza.
She’s a newhalf with a cute look—that’s already a curveball—and her repertoire of impressions is an even bigger curveball.
What we can learn from Ringo-chan is how to add a twist through contrast.
That seems like a great hint for creating the best entertainment act!
