Playboy BossJaruJaru
Jaru Jaru has won numerous comedy awards for their sketches and manzai.
Their sketches, which unfold with a one-of-a-kind worldview, have a solid reputation.
Among their bits, the one that really gets people going at school is “Chara-guy Boss.” They combine everyday-life “relatable” moments and people’s names with the word “chara-guy” (a flashy, playboy-type guy).
They also perform a signature phrase at the beginning and end of the routine.
Put on an outfit that evokes a flashy guy and perform it with light, snappy choreography.
If you project your voice and deliver it with a serious expression, you’ll get even bigger laughs.
Look that way! (Attchi muite hoi) — a Japanese children’s game phrase similar to ‘Look over there!’ used during the ‘acchi muite hoi’ game.Kubota Dash
https://www.tiktok.com/@kubotadash/video/6700124261224303873From rock-paper-scissors to “Acchi Muite Hoi” — it’s a classic game almost everyone has played, right? Here’s a one-shot gag by solo comedian Kubota Dash that makes clever use of the “Acchi Muite Hoi” phrase.
The flow connects the final “hoi” to hoikoro (twice-cooked pork), then branches out to other Chinese dishes.
It’s important to build a clear progression starting from rock-paper-scissors, keeping a steady rhythm and steadily heightening the audience’s anticipation up to hoikoro.
Starting with dishes like hoikoro and happosai, focus on how the words sound and build your routine around that.
Ah-han3 o'clock heroine
The female comedy trio Sanchino Heroine, who won the 2019 “Onna Geinin No.1 Ketteisen THE W,” has that addictive gag where they go “Ah-haaan” that sticks in your head once you hear it.
How about trying that? You might feel a little embarrassed, but go for it! The strength and intonation of the “Ah-haaan” are important, of course, but make sure to also do those sexy dances or poses you often see in Western music videos!
Ear delinquentsViking Kotoge
Kotoge from the comedy duo Viking teaches you the “Ear Biker Gang.” You pose as if gripping motorcycle handlebars next to your ear, then imitate a biker gang’s engine sounds with your mouth.
Finally, you cap it off with a punchline! It feels like there’s a fine line between getting laughs and bombing, but even if it bombs, going all-in like this would still be pretty satisfying (lol).
By the way, the trick is to really project your voice!
Huh?Rei Maruyama
It’s a phrase that became widely popular after being used as part of a routine by Rei Maruyama, who is active as an impersonation comedian.
It was treated as a gag line used instead of saying “Huh?” when someone trying to appear cute gets flustered.
Along with a cutesy, ingratiating tone of voice, the facial expression at the moment of saying it is also an important point.
You can use it simply as a cute word, but if you’re treating it as a comedic bit, I recommend exaggerating the pitch of your voice and your facial expressions when you perform it.
bubble jokeNora Hirano
During the era known as the bubble, when all of Japan was in high spirits, Nora Hirano appears dressed in the fashions that were popular at the time.
Her material also incorporates words and items used during the bubble era, so those who remember it feel nostalgic, while those who don’t can enjoy it as an unfamiliar culture.
Even if the culture itself is hard to grasp, her giddy appearance and confident demeanor invite laughter.
Fashion that evokes that period and the peculiar expressions you rarely hear today—crafting that world is likely the key point.
city dissNagon Hakusai
With her “yankee” (delinquent) persona, Hakuko from the comedy duo Nagone relentlessly disses people and neighborhoods.
Her character is so strong, yet she somehow feels familiar—like you could really imagine someone like her.
And her diss comedy, where she boldly teases various towns and the people who live there, is refreshingly straightforward and funny.
Even when it’s a place you don’t really know because you live out in the sticks, her way of talking makes it easy to picture—and you can’t help but laugh.
How about playfully roasting your own local town and the people around you, with a bit of affectionate ribbing?

♪ Original Song – An Obvious Secret Talk – An Obvious Secret Talk
A two-person one-shot gag.
The setting is a track sprint.
One person plays the runner, the other is the starter.
The starter says, “Ready, go,” and the runner takes off—but then the starter continues, “—is what I’d say before you start.” As the runner tries to stop, the starter adds, “You’ve already started.” The runner keeps getting jerked around, which is hilarious to watch.
If you perform it in perfect sync, it’s guaranteed to hype up the crowd!
Fried Rice GagSatsumakawa
Satamakawa RPG, who thrives both as a solo comedian and as part of the absurdist trio “Kaiki! Yes Donguri RPG,” delivers a fried rice gag defined by sheer momentum and total immersion in character.
Just when it looks like a seasoned Chinese chef is deftly tossing a wok, he suddenly flings the wok aside and sits down.
The deep, booming lines he growls add a vivid sense of realism.
Satamakawa RPG’s surreal, slow-burn fried rice gag is perfect for anyone looking to try their hand at gag comedy.

Consultation for your concernsMuscle Opera-chan
This is the skit “Advice Corner” by Muscle Opera-chan, who loves weight training and opera.
In response to a question about wanting dewy, glowing skin, she says she’s careful about breakouts too… while casually showing off her biceps, which is hilarious.
She also brings up mushrooms as her advice, introducing their benefits and recommended dishes—then breaks into opera while explaining, which just makes you laugh.
I think this bit works even if you’re not muscular, so why not tweak it and give it a try?
