One-liner gags that liven up a group dating party (21–30)

Kanpei Kainoma

One of the signature gags of Kanpei Hazama, a Yoshimoto comedian also known as a marathon runner, is “Kai~no.” Its charm is that it pops up out of nowhere in a completely nonsensical flow.

In any case, if there’s a situation that makes you feel even a little “itch,” give it a try.

Tooth! Audrey Kasuga

Speaking of the comedy duo Audrey’s Kasuga, he’s a comedian loved for his unique character! He has plenty of signature lines, but the one you can use in almost any situation is “Tooth!” I’m not entirely sure what it means, but dropping it unexpectedly might get a laugh.

Just don’t get shy and half-hearted—stand tall, point your index finger like Kasuga, puff out your chest, and declare it with confidence! Also, at a group date, the line “There’s a spot open here for you” (pointing to your side) would probably go over well too.

Body impersonation Robert Akiyama

In Robert Akiyama’s routine, he uses a body suit and a mask to completely become that person.

Since he doesn’t speak and relies on the visual impact to get laughs, it seems like something almost anyone could pull off.

The key is the timing of when you bring the mask up to your face.

If you can add an element of surprise instead of just holding it up with your hand in a straightforward way, the change will get the crowd going.

I’ll sue you!Dachou Club Ryuhei Ueshima

Ostrich Club performs a hidden masterpiece gag!
I'll sue you! Dachou Club Ueshima Ryuhei

There are many gags by Ryuhei Ueshima of Dachou Club, but if we’re talking about something you could use at a group dating party, maybe “I’ll sue you!” would work.

If the designated clown of the group gets teased in various ways and uses it, it’ll probably be a big hit.

That said, if the sexual harassment or power harassment goes too far, you could actually get sued, so keep things in moderation even when alcohol is involved.

How much? / How many? (colloquial, exaggerated)IKKO

One-shot gag: What if IKKO did a commercial for a toilet deodorizer?
How much? / How many? (colloquial, exaggerated)IKKO

Speaking of IKKO’s signature catchphrase, it’s “Dondake~,” but even if you keep the same rhythm and just change the words, anything can sound IKKO-style.

If you suddenly drop it during a group date for a quick quip or a moment of surprise, I think it’ll hype everyone up.
