Simple but intense! A quick-and-easy penalty game that hypes everyone up

one-shot gag

[Carefully Selected Reikure] Even though they’re just one-shot gags as punishments, Reikure is hilarious most of the time! Absolutely NICE 👍 [Carefully Selected Reikure]

It’s a punishment game that tests both creativity and quick thinking, where each person has to come up with a gag on the spot and perform it.

Deciding what kind of material to do is also crucial; if creating something original is tough, have them perform an existing gag in their own style, with their own movements and energy.

For people who aren’t used to it, performing a gag can feel embarrassing, but if you steel yourself and just go for it, you’ll minimize the damage afterward.

Using existing material works too—set a theme like “whose gag do you want to see,” or have everyone come up with an original gag based on a chosen theme.

That flow is recommended.

Shopping in a bodysuit

[TikTok] The loser has to go shopping in a full-body suit ♡ Transforming into an ultra-embarrassing look as a model... An intense battle staking a model’s pride that we absolutely cannot lose!! [Popteen]

This is a punishment game where the person wears a full-body suit—strongly associated with comedy sketches—and has to go about their business in that state.

Even people who can tolerate being seen like that by friends will find it tough when unrelated strangers start paying attention.

The contrast between the flashy appearance and the completely ordinary activity of just shopping also heightens the embarrassment.

Since wearing only a full-body suit can sometimes cause trouble for those around you, it’s recommended to wear regular clothes and let the parts that stick out be covered by the suit for the visual effect.

Change the first person

A game where whoever loses at rock-paper-scissors has to stop using 'ore' as their first-person pronoun.

It’s a simple yet deep game where the person who loses rock-paper-scissors changes their first-person pronoun.

By adjusting how many rounds you play, you can create a more thrilling buildup.

Instead of using your usual way of speaking—like ore, watashi, or boku—have the loser speak using quirky pronouns such as shōsei or wagahai.

If someone slips back into their usual first-person pronoun during casual conversation, you can add an extra penalty on top.

It’s easy for anyone to try, and it’s a forfeit game that will make everyone laugh, so give it a go!

Take a purikura photo alone

[Penalty Game] An almost-thirty single woman who lost a boxing match goes to take a purikura photo alone

Purikura are really only fun when you take them with friends or a partner, right? This punishment game is to go take purikura alone.

Just imagining heading to the purikura corner by yourself, while most people around you are there in groups, is terrifying.

People nearby who don’t know what’s going on would probably see someone taking purikura alone and think they must be a huge narcissist.

Enduring those stares from others is what makes it so tough.

Since all you have to do is go to a game center, it’s an easy punishment to carry out.

Confessing love with a funny face

Words used to convey your feelings to someone are often paired with a serious expression, which emphasizes the resolve and emotion behind them.

This piece explores what happens when we deliberately remove that serious expression from such earnest declarations—how does the atmosphere change? The key is to really distort your facial expression, to the point it could be called a funny face, and deliberately create a strong contrast between your expression and your words.

The focus is on whether your true feelings will still get across to the other person when you speak sincerely while making a goofy face.

Show your driver’s license or student ID

Round showdown, the final outcome at last! Who ended up having to reveal their driver’s license as the penalty? [#3]

Why is it that driver’s license photos make people laugh when they see them? Most people have stiff, unnatural expressions, and when someone says, “Show me your license,” you can’t help but think, “Uh-oh.” I suppose it’s that peculiar setting—having your picture taken by a stranger, with almost no one you know around, wrapped in a tense atmosphere where you’re too embarrassed to smile—that creates that unique vibe.

It feels almost like a punishment game, as if you’re exposing a raw version of yourself that nobody knows.

Impromptu impression (on-the-spot impersonation)

This is a punishment game where you casually throw out themes—like a person or an object you think of—and have someone improvise a full-body performance.

Precisely because it’s improvised, it can reveal what aspects of the given item or person they focus on and how they perceive it.

A recommended variation is to do impressions without using words, and you can make them continue until someone guesses correctly to prolong the suffering.

It also seems fun to deliberately toss out themes with words the performer likely doesn’t know and enjoy seeing what kind of expression they come up with.
