[Entertainment/Performance] Recommended funny impressions for women (41–50)
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?
[Entertainment/Performance] Funny impressions recommended for women (51–60)
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)
Akina Nakamori
Akina Nakamori is an artist who enjoyed immense popularity in the 1980s and is well known for being frequently impersonated by comedians.
“Desire” is still a karaoke staple.
Her sensual singing style and sidelong glances are signature traits, so it seems fun to really get into character and sing it at karaoke.
Disneyland cast member
Have you all ever been to Disneyland? If you have, I’m sure the topic of Disney cast members has come up at least once.
Their way of speaking is so distinctive that you can sense their high level of professionalism.
This little skit is about a Disney cast member guiding you to the restroom.
Once you hear the content, you realize it’s simply about going to the bathroom, but thanks to the cast member, it feels like you’re about to board a fun attraction (lol).
I think just mastering the Disney cast member style of speaking and using it in conversation at drinking parties or banquets would really liven things up.
Rola
Rola is extremely well-known as the queen of commercials and variety shows, and because she has a distinctive way of speaking and signature poses, she’s someone who’s easy to imitate.
Try sticking out your tongue cutely and darting your big eyes around—you’ll be sure to become everyone’s favorite.
Sun Wukong
This is a comedy sketch by the duo Identity, who are affiliated with Ohta Production.
Tajima plays Masako Nozawa, the voice actress for Son Goku from Dragon Ball, while Miura plays Android 17.
The key is the exquisite mix where, in Masako Nozawa’s voice as Son Goku, the actual Dragon Ball Son Goku pops up here and there.
It’s a challenging bit, so starting with flashy costumes might be a good idea.
Haruka Ayase
Haruka Ayase is an actress who shows an airheaded side you’d never expect from her poised, beautiful appearance.
Her way of speaking and moving is very distinctive, and lots of people imitate her.
Once you grasp her key traits, almost any words or actions can come across as Haruka Ayase, so if you’re going to try impressions, why not start with her? Pay attention to her slightly muffled-sounding voice and her speaking pace when you give it a shot! If you make your face and hairstyle resemble hers, you might get even more laughs.
If improvising on the spot is tough, recreating her commercials or drama scenes could be a good approach!
