[No More Worries!!] Hidden Talent Catalog That Gets the Crowd Going (11–20)
Rubik’s Cube
It’s a very simple 3D puzzle where you match the colors on all six faces, but it’s surprisingly difficult.
Since its release in 1997, it has become popular around the world as a toy enjoyed by both children and adults.
Why not use this 3D puzzle to show off a quick party trick? If you can smoothly solve a puzzle that stumps everyone else in an instant, you’re sure to earn a round of applause! There’s a specific method to solving it, so be sure to learn it and practice.
Flash Anzan
Flash anzan is the skill of instantly calculating numbers that flash across the screen in rapid succession.
Watching someone produce answers right away without even using a calculator is guaranteed to get people excited.
It seems especially approachable for those with abacus experience, so if you practiced the abacus as a child, it might be worth giving it a try.
For people with abacus experience, one key tip is to ‘play’ the abacus in your head.
Beyond that, steady progress comes from repeatedly solving problems over and over.
If you’re an abacus user or just good at math, why not practice a bit and show off your skills?
Dump the spoon straight into the cup.
If you’re looking for a quick trick that will wow everyone in an instant, how about livening things up with this party stunt? Fix several plastic cups onto a small tray with double-sided tape.
Place a spoon in front of each cup, then flick the tray so that all the spoons pop into the cups at once.
The key is to use a sharp snap of the wrist in one swift motion.
You can pick up everything you need at a 100-yen shop, so it’s easy and affordable.
Dice stacking
This is a performance where you use a cup to stack dice that are scattered on a table.
You need very little equipment, and as long as you have a reasonably flat table, you can do it anywhere.
The key point is to use dice that are about 1 to 1.5 cm on each side.
There are tricks to how you hold and handle them, so give it some practice.
I tried singing with a voice imitation
Impressions that appeal to any era and any generation.
Among them, if you can perform by mimicking a distinctive voice and belting out a song, it’s sure to be a hit.
For example, how about singing a popular song among young people using Doraemon’s voice that everyone knows? Doraemon’s voice can actually be done by almost anyone if you tense your throat and boldly produce a big, gruff voice.
It’s said that your vocal range can be expanded with practice and effort, so just ride the vibe and have fun!
tongue twister
Classic tongue twisters that combine simple yet tricky-to-pronounce words are great, but the video takes a slightly different approach: it challenges you to see how quickly you can read a large, pre-written passage without stumbling.
It might also be fun to try it with multiple people and compete to see who can finish reading the fastest.

tambourine
The tambourine may look simple, but it’s actually a surprisingly deep instrument.
It’s not just about hitting it—you can incorporate various movements and techniques, and make good use of the small cymbals around the rim.
By combining different playing methods and motions, you can turn it into a full tambourine performance act.
Up-tempo, exciting music might work well.
You could also take inspiration from Gonzo, the solo performer who has appeared on the Got Talent shows around the world, and put on a lively, fun tambourine act!
