Recreation Popularity Rankings for High School Students (51–60)
10-yen soccer game57rank/position

Let’s play a soccer game using 10-yen coins! First, how to defend: use your pinky finger to make a goal, and your index finger plays the role of the goalkeeper.
Keep your pinky fixed in place.
You’ll use three 10-yen coins in total.
To attack, slide one 10-yen coin through the gap between the other two coins, then take a shot.
Even if the coin hits another coin or fails to pass between them, offense and defense still switch.
There’s also a special rule you can use only once, so be sure to check it out!
Delivery vs Home-Cooked Meals: A Speed Showdown58rank/position

Food delivery services are really convenient, aren’t they? But of course, they do take a certain amount of time.
In that case, wouldn’t it be faster to cook for yourself? So, we’re going to pit delivery services against home cooking.
There’s also the question of whether we start from going to the supermarket, but what will the outcome be?
Ready, set!59rank/position

The “Issē no” game starts with two or more people.
Facing each other, you hold hands, press the soles of your feet together, and stand up on the cue of “Issē no!” Then you increase the number of players to three, four, and so on.
It seems like a great way to break the ice and become friends even with people you’re meeting for the first time.
Ses-ses-say-ya game60rank/position

Here’s an original game that uses a rhythm bit created by the popular comedy duo, Shimofuri Myojo.
Using the rhythm of “Se-se-seiya,” you give your opponent a prompt, and they respond with an image or idea phrased like Soshina’s signature tsukkomi retort.
It’s upbeat and sure to get everyone excited, but be warned—if you lose, a penalty like a finger flick awaits.
And don’t forget to strike the classic “Se-se-seiya pose,” of course!

Bamboo shoot, bamboo shoot, nyokki-ki!61rank/position

Start with the chant: Take-no-ko, Take-no-ko, Nyokkikki! Everyone stands by in a circle, and then pops up like a sprouting bamboo shoot, calling out “1-nyokki,” “2-nyokki,” and so on.
If two people speak at the same time, they’re out! The rules are simple, but timing your voice while reading the room can be pretty nerve-racking.
The more players there are, the harder the game gets, so why not try it when you have a big group? You might need plenty of penalties ready!
Perfect match game62rank/position

The “Perfect Match Game” divides players into a first-mover team and a second-mover team.
They take turns asking each other questions and try to stop at just the right moment so that the answers land exactly on a preset number.
According to the creator, it’s not very fun if the preset number is too small.
Sometimes you might even discover a hidden side of your friends…
Give it a try!
The ‘Another One Here-Hello Game’63rank/position

The “Mohitori Ororu Game” is apparently a game that Kanjani Eight used to play.
You present a prompt like “Breakfast time is 5 minutes.” When someone calls out “Mou hitori—,” if that applies to you too, you continue with the chant “Oru oru—.” The person who says “Oru oru—” and ends up being the only one wins.
Surprisingly, sometimes several people match, or nobody relates at all, so choosing prompts can be tricky.
It might even turn into a little confession time!
