Gag Collection Yes! Akito

Yes! Akito, a solo comedian who shot to fame after making it to the finals of the 2022 R-1 Grand Prix.

His signature style features high-energy banter interspersed with a rapid-fire stream of one-liner gags.

Sure!Akira of the comedy duo Mizutama Reppu-tai

Yoshimoto Shinkigeki Aki: 114 Day—It’s All Good! Igarashi Saki-chan Edition
Sure! Mizutama Reppu-tai Aki

When it comes to easy, crowd-pleasing comedy you can work into everyday life, how about taking inspiration from Yoshimoto Shinkigeki? In the video, a problem breaks out between two people, and Aki from Mizutama Reppu-tai gets furious and yells.

But as soon as the other person apologizes with a “Sorry,” his attitude flips, and he responds with a gentle “It’s okay,” both in tone and expression.

That contrast makes you laugh, right? It’s a great idea to use when a light argument with a close friend cools down and the other person backs down.

The key is how quickly you switch from a serious expression to a kind, calm one!

JOKERDen

Linda Color ∞ Den’s gag “JOKER” really gets under your skin with its distinctive movements and expressions.

Den, whose signature is a charismatic persona, makes his voice even more alluring when he says “JOKER.” The key is that voice and intonation that make you want to imitate it.

Before performing “JOKER,” try speaking, in character, about your convictions and the important things you want to share with everyone.

It will make the punchline “JOKER” stand out even more!

[YONEDA 2000] M-1 Grand Prix 2022 Final Routine: 'Mochitsuki (Rice Cake Pounding)'
Let's absolutely make it a success. Yoneda 2000

Are you familiar with the comedy duo Yoneda 2000’s line, “Zettai ni, seikō sasenē” (We’re absolutely going to make this a success)? It wasn’t originally performed as a one-off gag; it’s actually one of the lines that appears in their mochi-pounding routine from the 2022 M-1 Grand Prix finals.

However, because it’s delivered with a distinctive intonation and rhythm, it left a strong impression on many people.

You can say it when doing something together with others, and it seems like using that same intonation and rhythm to say different words would also get laughs.

It must be ◯◯!Kyu

Kyuu Manzai “Completely Different Things” (A Study of the Grim Reaper)
It must be ◯◯! Kyu

The manzai duo Kyuu from the Titan agency has a routine called “It’s gotta be XX!” and it’s really funny.

The flow goes like this: the boke, Biro-san, says there are things that are completely different and names two seemingly unrelated words, like “the Grim Reaper and pizza.” Then the tsukkomi, Makoto Shimizu, replies with a subtle commonality: “They both use a scythe, right?!” It’s a bit you laugh at while also admiring how well-crafted it is.

Another key to the humor is Shimizu’s dead-serious expression when he delivers “It’s gotta be XX!”—and don’t miss that sharply pointed finger!

What the heck is that?Seiya (of Shimofuri Myojo)

I’ll seriously teach Sesse Sseiya to Sosina [Shimofuri Myojo]
What the heck is that? Shimofuri Myojo Seiya

Here’s a gag from Seiya of the comedy duo Shimofuri Myojo! It’s especially recommended for anyone whose name is also Seiya! The rhythmical delivery gets stuck in your head and you can’t help but laugh.

And the biggest highlight of this bit is the call bell on his chest! Just when you’re watching and wondering, “When is he going to use that?”, he suddenly rings it—and you can’t help but chuckle!

Poon poonEXIT

Poon poonEXIT

EXIT, the comedy duo currently skyrocketing in popularity with their flashy playboy personas.

Their signature catchphrase? “Pooon pooon!!” Say it with that breezy vibe and delivery, and you might just get through any situation (lol).

They’re such regulars on TV that you can hardly go a day without seeing them, so drop it at the right moment and you’re guaranteed to hype up the crowd.

A distinctive way of speaking and quips that don’t hurt people — Pekopa’s Shoinji Taiyu

Pekopa, whose punchlines never blame others, are hugely popular with kids.

Like them, punchlines that never hurt anyone will make everyone in the class laugh and create a peaceful, fun mood.

If you always try to come up with blame-free punchlines yourself, you’ll become more positive too, and even when you fail, you might still feel cheerful.

Most mistakes, after all, don’t amount to much in the end.

Let’s understand that and build a more forgiving society.

Right?

Don’t worry.I’m wearing.Yasumura, Always Cheerful

“Don’t worry, I’m wearing.” by Tonikaku Akarui Yasumura (English version)
Don't worry. I'm wearing. Tonikaku Akarui Yasumura

Yasumura, known widely for the phrase “Don’t worry, I’m wearing,” is the ever-cheerful comedian behind the catchphrase originally popularized in Japanese as “Anshin shite kudasai, haitemasu yo.” He also made headlines by competing on the British audition show Britain’s Got Talent and advancing to the finals.

During that time, he performed the English version, “Don’t worry, I’m wearing.” The basic idea is the same, but the English version has a different charm.

Pay attention to pronunciation and give it a try.
