Rhythm gag × Kanji

This is a one-shot gag where you do a parody of Nobodyknows+’s “Kokoro Odoru” and perform a comedic bit.
It’s funny because, during the catchy parts of the lyrics, you say “shinnyō” while using your hands and body to form the shape of the radical shinnyō.
On top of that, connecting it to the kabuki actor Ebizō adds an element of surprise.
If you really evoke a kabuki actor through your expressions and poses, you’ll likely get applause along with laughter.
Gags that incorporate song and rhythm are fun to practice, so definitely give it a try!
freestyle rap
Rappers go head-to-head in verbal battles over a beat—rap battles.
Watching them feels so satisfying, doesn’t it? It’s amazing how, off the cuff, they ride the rhythm and spit a torrent of words, smoothly dropping clever rhymes without tripping over their lines.
It’s really satisfying to watch.
Doing improvised raps about common school or classroom situations would definitely hype things up!
Rock-paper-scissors gag

Original song – Kubota Dash – Kubota Dash 🏃♂️💨
Here’s a one-shot gag that uses rock-paper-scissors—something every student has done.
Start by playing normally with “Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!” Then make it a tie.
After saying “Aiko de…” (tie-break), say “xiao long bao,” bring both palms together above your head, and shape them like a soup dumpling.
Next, say “from below, bang bang ji,” stand at attention, and move upward from below.
It might help to imagine a startled chicken.
The key is to open your eyes wide at the end.

Card magic
When you want to amaze everyone, card magic is the perfect choice.
For example, how about a simple trick where you guess a chosen card? If the card they picked turns out to be something unexpected, the audience will be surprised.
In that moment, with a move like a finger slide, you transform it into the real card as if by magic.
The steps are easy for beginners to learn, and you might just steal the spotlight among your friends.
If you want to become the center of attention at school, give card magic a try!
tongue twister
When you hear “party trick,” tongue twisters are probably what come to mind.
They’re a time-honored pastime: you can invent new ones or tackle classics, and they’re perfect for instantly livening up the moment.
Starting with staples like “nama mugi, nama gome, nama tamago” (raw wheat, raw rice, raw egg) and mixing in humorous ones like “basu gasu bakuhatsu” (bus gas explosion), the phrases themselves can really entertain everyone listening.
On the other hand, a fresh challenge—rapidly reading a long passage—can broaden the fun of tongue twisters, too.
Racing to beat the clock on the same text is also a great chance to strengthen friendships.
Why not add tongue twister practice to your repertoire as a skill that makes you stand out in class? The sense of accomplishment when you rattle them off smoothly is something special.
“National Treasure” impression (impersonation)
@akizonomanezo Someone whose way of folding laundry changes after watching the movie “National Treasure.”MovieNational TreasureRyo Yoshizawa#RyuseiYokohamaKabukiParody#NationalTreasureCommunity
♪ Original song – kokuhoumovie – Official account of the film “National Treasure”
It’s a one-shot gag that riffs on the film “National Treasure,” which portrays the life of a kabuki actor walking a solitary path.
The action is simply folding laundry, but with a glossy, smoldering gaze, deliberately precise fingertips, and a little bite of the towel when halving it…
Anyone who’s seen the film will be doubled over with laughter.
The bit works if you fold laundry while channeling the film’s depiction of an onnagata (male actor in female roles), so anyone can perform it as long as they commit to the role.
I recommend folding the towel slowly on purpose.
School things everyone can relate to
Impressions are easy because you can do them with just your body, but it takes courage when you worry, “What if it doesn’t land…?” In those moments, how about doing some light impressions—school ‘relatable moments’? Things like that one person every class definitely has, classic event clichés, a teacher’s catchphrases or things they’re likely to say—bundle up those school-related ‘relatables’ and mimic them all at once! The more familiar the material, the bigger the laughs.
