[Entertainment/Performance] Recommended funny impressions for women (41–50)
Baikinman
If we’re talking about an anime known across a wide range of ages, from children to adults, one that comes to mind is “Soreike! Anpanman.” The main character is Anpanman, but the blundering villain Baikinman is also a character with great charm.
This is Baikinman’s theme song, “Ikuzo! Baikinman.” It’s a cute, straightforward tune that feels very Baikinman, and it seems like it would really get the crowd going if you sing it with some simple choreography.
Mana Ashida
The 2010 drama “Mother” showcased the acting talent of child actress Mana Ashida.
This is an impression of a particularly memorable scene from “Mother.” It’s the scene where Reina, the abused child played by Mana Ashida, calls Nao, the female teacher who kidnapped her and is trying to become her mother, and says, “Kidnap me again.” It’s a tear-jerking, iconic scene, but I think it’s also interesting how, when turned into an impression, it can suddenly become a gag like this.
Ado
Ado made a sensational debut with “Usseewa.” In 2022, she drew major attention by appearing in the film ONE PIECE FILM RED as the singing voice for the key character Uta.
Songs like “New Genesis” and “I’m Invincible” are well known not only among children but also among parents, making her a perfect artist to imitate for performances at events.
Her powerful vocals and distinctive falsetto require considerable singing ability, but definitely give it a try!
Akihiro Miwa
If there are many older people, Akihiro Miwa will go over well.
He’s distinctive and easy to recognize, and even if your impression isn’t spot-on, he has signature lines that make him easy to imitate.
For people in their 30s and up, they’re likely to know Akihiro Miwa from something—singing, musicals, TV shows, or anime voice acting—so why not start with Moro from Princess Mononoke and say, “Silence, boy!”?
Miki Maya
Miki Maya, a highly skilled actress known for her past role as a male-role performer in the Takarazuka Revue, became famous for the line “Don’t give up!” in a commercial.
The phrase is so well-known—practically synonymous with Maya—that just saying “Don’t give up!” in a brisk, no-nonsense tone is enough for people to know who you’re imitating, even if the impression isn’t spot-on; it’s a complete act in itself.
Sunshine Ikezaki
This is an impression of Sunshine Ikezaki that Takumi Saitoh did on the 2016 “Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!” No-Laughing series, which became a big hit.
If the outfit feels embarrassing, I think just wearing the headband works fine and is easy for people to recognize.
Coming up with your own opening lines might get a good laugh, don’t you think?
Nihon Elekitel Rengo (Japan Elekitel Union)
It might be difficult, but if two women do it as a duo, it’s sure to be a hit.
It’s the “Ken and Kumi” series of the Naniwa man and woman from Nihon Elekitel Rengo.
The key is the makeup.
If you can capture their distinctive love-hate drama, it’ll definitely be a big hit even if your Osaka dialect accent is off—just like Nihon Elekitel Rengo.
The look alone is already funny, right? (lol)
