YOU

YOU, who is very active on variety shows and has appeared in many works as an actress, is a familiar face.

There are also many people who do impressions of her—you often see them on TV! She has a distinctive slightly nasal, husky voice and a relaxed way of speaking.

If you watch impressionists, you’ll notice they often press one side of their nose or pinch their nose while talking.

It also helps to say things YOU might say or speak while laughing; you’ll gradually get the hang of it.

[Donguri Takeshi] Solo Act: "Self-Introduction"
Endless self-introduction Donguri Takeshi

One comedian who’s gained popularity with one-shot gags is Donguri Takeshi, who performs as a solo act.

Among his material, his self-introduction gags are perfect even for a group date setting.

In addition to his catchphrase-like shout of “Sakeru cheeese!!”, he often does a self-intro bit that links his own name to a phrase ending with the syllable “don.” For example: “On your marks, get set, go! Donguri Takeshi!!” Why not try combining a line that ends with the first sound of your own name with your self-introduction to add a dash of humor?

Have you ever been asked to do a party act or performance but didn’t have time to prepare—no practice, no props? For those times when you end up taking on a last‑minute request or something that’s hard to refuse, here’s a recommended idea.

When you’re out for a meal, use the hand towels on the table to create art.

You might wonder if you can really make something with such small towels.

But you can actually craft cute pieces like animals, flowers, and even anime characters.

Hand towels are sold at 100-yen shops, and since you just fold them like origami, you don’t need much practice time.

Why not master how to make them?

Tetsurō Degawa’s gag “Yabai yo, yabai yo” (This is bad, this is bad!)—famous for his real reactions and comedy—is sure to be a hit at school! The key to a gag you can use in any school situation is that you can turn whatever’s happening right then into the joke.

Plus, the simple wording makes it easy for friends around you to understand what it means.

Try performing it as a quick one-shot gag at school and liven up the room!

An impression that people of all ages—and even across borders—will understand is Pikachu.

As many know, it’s the yellow, mouse-like character from the Pokémon animated series.

Since Pikachu doesn’t speak human language, it uses variations of cries like “Pikachu” and “Pika-pika~” to express joy, anger, sadness, and more.

If you watch the show, you’ll notice how voice actor Ikue Otani brings astonishing emotional nuance to the role.

Mastering this and having others guess the emotion can be a lot of fun.
