[Comedy Skit] A Bunch of One-Liners Perfect for High Schoolers! (21–30)
Shadowboxing so vigorously that you end up brushing your teeth
Here’s a one-shot gag by an ordinary high school student living in Osaka.
It’s a clever bit that overlays the movements and sounds of boxing and toothbrushing, and it’s great because it inspires other ideas too.
Think of things that have slightly similar sounds or movements but are totally unrelated, and try connecting them.
If you perform it confidently without being shy, it’ll be twice as funny.
Of course, a bit of amateurishness can be a charming spice, so just have fun with it!
unprecedented and unrepeatableSunshine Ikezaki
Sunshine Ikezaki’s routine is a recommended one-shot gag you can pull off as long as you’ve got the energy! The lines are a bit long, but since it’s a self-introduction bit, it should be easy to memorize.
If you speak loudly and clearly, it’s sure to be a big hit in the classroom.
As an advanced twist, you could also deliver your own self-introduction in Sunshine Ikezaki’s style.
On your marks, get set, go!

♫ Original Song – Comedy! Funny Video!! Smile Yagisawa (Dr. Princess) – The Shohei Ohtani of rap and gags! Smile Yagisawa (Dr. Princess)
I’ll introduce a one-shot gag based on “On your marks, get set, go!” Just when everyone expects you to dash off at the signal, don’t run—stay put, march in place, and shout loudly.
Then stop on a dime and say, “Urusain Bolt” (a pun combining “urusai,” meaning noisy, and “Usain Bolt”).
The key to success is how convincingly you set up the start, as if you’re about to explode out of the blocks.
Rapid high-knee stepping on the spot will likely get laughs, too.
Finish by belting out “Urusain Bolt” to bring the house down.
Adding a creative costume is also recommended.
stone
A perfect one-liner is funny because it blends both “That’s clever!” and “That’s dumb!” Start by announcing the title with lots of energy, then keep going.
Give everyone a moment to wonder, “A stone? How does that connect?” and deliver the punchline at that delicate moment when they’re just on the edge of getting it—or not.
It should make people think, “Wait, it was that simple?” and laugh at how a tiny spark of excitement got them—creating a warm, feel-good one-liner for the room.
Too expensive
@nn0nnn0n9 One-shot Gag [Diaper That's Way Too High]#MonMonOne-shot gagImitate this
♪ Original Song – MonMon – MonMon 🐳📈
An unconventional comedian who makes a living by showcasing gags on social media instead of working a part-time job, Monmon’s material is also recommended for high school students.
Most of the gags are short, so they’re perfect for covering up a brief moment of awkwardness.
There are over a thousand gags uploaded as videos—be sure to find the bits that suit you! Among them, the go-to “If you can’t decide, try this!” gag is “Diapers That Are Way Too Expensive.” To the melody of the Moony Man diaper commercial, you sing, “Disposable diapers, 120,000 yen,” and then you do a little dance while chanting, “How delightful, how delightful, panpaka-paan!”—that whole sequence is one set.
The key to getting laughs is to deliver the gags back-to-back without a pause!
Pain, pain, fly away
Kazato Sōgyōsai, who rapidly fires off gags on YouTube and TikTok, presents a slightly theatrical-style joke here.
The flow goes from “A little kid fell down,” to “Pain, pain, fly away!” and then lands with “4 meters 88 centimeters, a new record,” as if it were a track-and-field meet.
You think they’re talking to a child, and then it suddenly shifts to announcing an athletics record—that twist is the key to the humor.
Be sure to add variation in pacing when you try it.
Parody of a commercial
There are those famous commercials that everyone knows, right? How about doing a bit that uses a memorable line or jingle from one of those ads? The one introduced here is a skit based on CHOYA’s “Sararito Shita Umeshu” commercial.
To the melody used in the ad, they stroke their own arm and say, “smooth arm hair.” I’m sure there are other commercials you can use, so why not look around and come up with your own bit? Your original routine might just steal the laughs!
