Punishment games that hype up a group date

Command Card Game

We tried playing the group blind date command card game with just the guys!

Many directive-style penalty games, such as the ‘King’s Game,’ are often devised by the participants themselves, but how about using store-bought joke items once in a while? Since no one knows what they contain, it can really liven things up.

However, be cautious—the hard version used in the video is quite edgy.

Self-introduction in an anime-style voice

[Self-Introduction] In an anime-style voice

The video features a professional voice actor, so the technique is incredible, but using an anime-style voice is a high hurdle for a non-professional to try at a group date.

The person would probably feel very embarrassed, and I think it would make for a solid punishment game.

Besides self-introductions, it might be good to set some embarrassing lines as well.

Speak in standard language.

Differences between Kansai dialect and standard Japanese

For people who usually speak in a dialect, standard Japanese can feel quite unnatural, right? If it’s hard for one person, it could be fun to have two or more people as the penalty players and make them converse only in standard Japanese.

If they make mistakes, you could loop the penalty and keep it going.

Outside the Kansai region, having them speak in Kansai dialect could also liven things up.

Chugging senburi tea

Now it’s become a staple for punishment games: senburi tea.

Senburi is known as the most bitter medicinal herb, and when it’s made into a tea, that’s senburi tea.

The name “senburi” is said to come from the idea that it’s still bitter even after being shaken a thousand times.

wear cat ears

The cat-ear punishment game is a classic bit that mixes cuteness with embarrassment.

Regardless of whether it suits someone, having anyone wear them—no matter their gender—creates a funny gap that gets laughs.

If you add a rule to meow like a cat, it’s sure to get even more exciting as the embarrassment kicks in.

It also makes for a fun punishment game that leaves memories when you use it for photo time or social media posts.

Having costume items instantly changes the vibe, so it’s easy to incorporate into plans or events, and you can expect it to work well as a mood booster.

Gently bumping foreheads and gazing into each other’s eyes

The situation where you gently bump foreheads and gaze into each other is a romantic scene you often see in dramas.

This activity recreates that rare situation so the person can really feel the embarrassment that comes from being so close.

Just bumping foreheads alone doesn’t clearly convey the closeness, so make sure to lock eyes and let them feel just how near you are—closer than they imagined.

If your embarrassment builds too much beforehand, you might get carried away and turn it into a real headbutt, so it’s best to stay as calm as possible until the moment you touch.

Confessing love with a funny face

Words that convey your feelings to someone tend to be paired with a serious expression, which in turn emphasizes the determination and emotion behind them.

This piece explores what happens when we deliberately remove that “serious expression” from such earnest expressions of feeling and see what kind of atmosphere emerges.

It’s important to really distort your facial expression—enough to call it a funny face—and deliberately highlight the gap between your expression and your words.

The key point to watch is whether your feelings will still get through to the other person when you speak earnestly while making a goofy face.
