PantieTexTamayo Shimada
Tamayo Shimada, who is active in Yoshimoto Shinkigeki, has a strong image as a wild, unpredictable character and really brings energy to the stage.
The gag that helped propel her dynamic persona nationwide is the one known as “Panty Tex.” With its wide-legged stance and a loud, almost shriek-like shout that matches the movement, its sheer power pulls the audience in.
Precisely because the movements are far from what you’d call graceful posture, they leave a strong impression of boldness.
Don’t poke it (just a little) / Don’t flick it.champions
This is the signature bit that made the duo name “Champions” widely known.
It starts with poking the partner’s temple and scolding them for their behavior, then develops from there.
The flow goes from a simple warning to gradually creating a rhythm through the way they poke.
The variety that unfolds using just “chon”—like rap-style scolding and parody songs where some words are changed to “chon”—is what gets laughs.
The energetic body movements in time with the rhythm, along with their bursting smiles that match it, are also amusing highlights.
It’s got a strong quirkNobu (Chidori)
This is one of the punchlines used by Nobu from the comedy duo Chidori—something you’d throw out while being bewildered by the other person’s joke.
It’s perfect when someone’s acting way out of character or when a really strong gag hits, and it also works as a bridge when you can’t instantly think of the ideal retort.
It only lands if the other person’s joke is strong, so use it while gauging the direction of their bit.
Since it’s a simple line that just points out how quirky or intense they’re being, it’s important to be particular about when you use it and how you deliver it.
