During my student years at Kyoto College of Science and Technology, I studied a wide range of fields including sound, lighting, and video technology, building a foundation in comprehensive stage production and creative expression. After graduation, I joined a music production company, where I still work, consistently building experience in production and engaging in a variety of music-centered tasks. Currently, I mainly handle articles for children, drawing on what I’ve learned about parenting and what I feel and discover through daily interactions with my kids. I hope my work can be of help to you, even in a small way!
POPS writer/editorKEI
Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

Say something positive slowly Timondi Takagishi

Mr.

Takagishi of the comedy duo Timondi has a background as a former high school baseball player who aspired to become a professional baseball player until he was injured in his third year of university.

His trademarks are his slow, deliberate way of speaking and his many positive phrases.

In particular, the phrase “If you try, you can do it” is one he often uses, and it’s said to be a motto of his alma mater, Saibi High School.

If you, like Mr.

Takagishi—who beams as he throws out upbeat, passionate words in any situation—sprinkle positive lines throughout a drinking party, you’ll probably get a great reaction.

They’re easy to customize, too, so pick the phrases that best fit the moment!

whiteface impersonation Wild Bomb Cookie!

Kukki! from the comedy duo Yasei Bakudan used to be known for his outrageous on-location stunts, but lately his multifaceted talents have been in the spotlight—playing bass for Genie High, creating artwork, and holding solo exhibitions.

Among his various acts, his white-face impersonations are especially talked about.

With intense makeup that matches the distinctive style of his drawings, his impressions hit that sweet spot of “it definitely looks like them, but something’s off” in a hilarious way.

It’s tough to reach the level of the man himself, but if you take the plunge and try it, it could be a lot of fun.

Chocolate Planet: "Be quiet."

Be quiet!

Chocolate Planet, famed as a treasure trove of material, has a proven track record, having advanced to the finals of King of Conte in 2008, 2014, and 2018.

All of their brilliant sketches are actually conceived solely by Nagata.

And while Nagata is writing material, is Matsuo off hanging out with a rapper friend? As a side act, why not try copying their sketch “Be Quiet!” It’s meticulously crafted, so you’ll definitely need practice.

Other bits like “Where Are We?” and “The Jingle Is Too Long” are also guaranteed laugh riots!
