A one-shot gag in a commercial
These are one-liner gag ideas based on commercials everyone’s heard at least once.
It introduces five bits that include themes like “chocolate,” “a female doctor,” and “clam digging.” Each piece is easy to follow, and they all end with a signature pose timed to a familiar line from a commercial, so beginners to one-liner gags should find them approachable.
While this material is designed for a solo performer, expanding the dialogue into a sketch-style exchange could also make it entertaining.
Escapism Series
Speaking of escapism gags, you can’t forget the comedian Iio from the duo Zun.
The bit that Minami Hamabe perfectly copied on the comedy show “Zenryoku! Datsuryoku Times”—“Lazing around on a weekday afternoon… lazing around… ahhh, I wish oil would come out instead of snot every time I sneeze”—blew up across social media.
Even a straight copy of Iio’s gag will get laughs, but if you weave in your school’s beloved teachers or familiar everyday happenings, it’ll land even harder! The trick is to deliver the lines in a listless, unenergetic tone.
disappointed
Nose-Arrow Nagai, a comedian from Asai Kikaku who looks on the verge of breaking out, posts gag videos on Instagram every day at 6 p.m.
He often does short, rhythmic song bits, so he’s recommended not only for high schoolers but also for younger kids like middle schoolers and even little brothers in elementary school.
“Tulip Graveyard” and “Uppercut to a Stranger” are funny, but the top pick is his parody gag of “Yuki 100%.” He sings the opening line just like the original, then switches into the parody with “Dōjō shite~ (Show me some sympathy~).” The lyrics flow seamlessly, which makes it straightforwardly hilarious! He has tons of videos—be sure to check out Nose-Arrow’s clips for inspiration.

On your marks, get set, go!
@bareuchi I got stuck!Exercise# Relatable momentsskitOne-shot gag#ShortSkitsKing2025
♪ Original Song – An Obvious Secret Talk – An Obvious Secret Talk
A two-person one-shot gag.
The setting is a track sprint.
One person plays the runner, the other is the starter.
The starter says, “Ready, go,” and the runner takes off—but then the starter continues, “—is what I’d say before you start.” As the runner tries to stop, the starter adds, “You’ve already started.” The runner keeps getting jerked around, which is hilarious to watch.
If you perform it in perfect sync, it’s guaranteed to hype up the crowd!
SpongeBob
The American animated series SpongeBob SquarePants, set in Bikini Bottom at the bottom of the sea, has been loved by people of all ages since it began airing in the U.S.
in 1999.
It’s also gained popularity in Japan, where plenty of merchandise has been sold.
And here’s a quick gag that uses SpongeBob.
SpongeBob looks like he’s picking a fight, acting all tough and aggressive, but in reality he’s trying to intimidate people with his own pants! It’s super easy to do, so if you like SpongeBob, give it a try.

♪ Original Song – Issei – Issei
A gag where you turn a speed-related math problem into a parody song set to the melody of Yuzu’s “Natsuiro.” It’ll make people want to ask, “So, what’s the answer?” and someone quick-witted might blurt it out and hype the room even more.
When performing this bit, use your hands to show a slope or sing as if you’re riding a bicycle to get more laughs.
It also helps to sing with a cool, confident expression, as if you’re an artist.
Be sure to practice the song so you can deliver the problem in time with the melody.

♬ Original song – Somaō Meatball – Somaō Meatball
Somao Meatball is known for his fearless personality.
He might not be that familiar outside the Kansai region yet, but he’s popular enough to fill Yoshimoto’s ZAZA Theater all by himself.
He’s a comedy talent right on the verge of a breakout, and his routine that starts with “Masara Town ni sayonara baibai” really packs a punch.
You could even use it as a comeback when a teacher or senior scolds you.
In the latter half, he drops a punny gag: “Ore wa Okinawa no Naha ni iru shimanchu, shimanchu,” playing on Pikachu and shimanchu (islanders).
Even people who don’t know Pokémon—please make sure to bring them into the fun too!
