A magic person who can make viewers go “Ah!” with surprise.

You’ll shine during break times and school events.

Once you find a trick you want to perform, practice it over and over and memorize the steps so you can present it smoothly.

The way you show it and the way you talk are also key.

It’s important to keep a good rhythm and proceed smoothly so your audience doesn’t get suspicious.

Get your classmates involved—have them help with the tricks and ask what kind of magic they want to see—so you can build the excitement together!

An impressionist role that gets laughs by mimicking people or things everyone knows.

The key is to capture and express the distinctive features and highlights of what you want to imitate.

If you go all in and people burst out laughing because it’s “spot on,” that’s the best.

Don’t be shy—express yourself boldly and without fear.

It’s also important to observe and grasp the characteristics of your target.

Avoid doing impressions that might make others feel uncomfortable.

What matters is doing impressions that everyone in the class can laugh at.

Monosacist

A “monosashist” is someone who plays music using a ruler.

If you place a ruler on a hard surface and flick it, it makes a twanging sound, right? They use that sound to make music.

You might wonder, can you really play music that way? But when skilled players perform, you truly hear music! How about practicing secretly at home and then showing it off at school? Rulers made of metal or plastic seem to produce sound, but try different sizes and thicknesses to find the one that’s easiest for you to play!

KUKKI! from Yasei Bakudan’s white-face impersonations became a huge talking point on TV, didn’t they? The makeup—reflecting his highly praised, distinctive artistic sense—is striking.

While it’s not exactly something you can show off during school recess, it would definitely make a splash as a cultural festival act or event entertainment because it’s topical and exciting.

By all means, try doing a face impersonation of a teacher who’s popular with the students!

Tie a cherry stem with your tongue

It’s a party trick where you tie a cherry stem in a knot using just your mouth.

It looks easy, but when you try it, it’s harder than you think.

The trick is to check the stem’s length carefully and bend it bit by bit.

For some reason, it has a slightly grown-up vibe to it.

Marshmallow Catch

It’s a quick gag where you catch a thrown marshmallow in your mouth.

The thrower’s control is important, too.

You can try taking a longer distance or dropping it from above—lots of variations come to mind.

It’s recommended for people who feel they’re not great with intricate tricks.

High-speed typing

Typing is essential for working on a computer.

This activity focuses not only on accuracy but also on speed.

Start by fixing your finger positions and entering text slowly and accurately, then gradually build up your speed through steady practice.

Keep the screen visible to others so they can watch as text is produced at a rapid pace.

To let people sense the speed from the sound as well, using a keyboard that makes a click when you press a key is also recommended.
