Aim to be popular! A party trick that will hype up the school

To become the most popular kid in class, you need to show off your talents in various ways—like having a great sense of humor, being good at sports, or always getting perfect scores on tests.

But why not aim for popularity by showing off some awesome tricks outside of those areas too? In this article, we introduce party tricks that will liven up your school.

We’ve gathered a wide range—from super easy ones to those you can master with practice—so give them a try and become the star of your class!

Aim to be popular! One-shot gags that liven up the school (41–50)

Caricature Illustration Challenge

[Art] I Tried a Serious 10-Minute Portrait Challenge! Painting Each Other Challenge
Caricature Illustration Challenge

Let’s try a caricature challenge as a quick gag.

Set a time limit and draw a simple portrait of the other person.

You can use paints or crayons—either is fine.

You don’t need to be good at drawing; the goal is to make a picture that gets laughs.

Exaggerate their features or create a hilariously “master artist” style drawing—just let your creativity run wild.

The drawing will stick around after the gag, so it can keep serving as a source of laughs afterward.

Pantomime is the art of creating wonderful entertainment without using special props.

The technique of giving the audience the illusion that there is an invisible wall is perfect for drawing attention in class.

Gestures like bumping into a wall or moving as if carrying something heavy can be mastered by anyone with practice.

It certainly takes time to improve, but when your efforts pay off, you’ll earn big applause from those around you.

Make sure each movement of your arms has clear meaning, and captivate your classmates with polished expressiveness.

ASICS

@kuropafuu

A one-liner gag you can use starting tomorrow.#ComedyOne-shot gag#GagFootOctopus#Takoyaki#NSC43rdTermYoshimotoSneakersComedy entertainerFashionable#StayAtHomeSquadkuro#VivaBebop#IWantToBeOnTheRecommendationsASICS

Original song – Viva Bebop – Kuro

While saying, “Legs are growing out,” you mime pulling legs out of your body.

After you’ve pulled out six legs, you say, “Six legs… ASICS!” to get a laugh.

It’s a pun on “ashi” (legs) and “six,” landing on the sports brand.

Anyone who knows ASICS might see the punchline coming, but that’s exactly why the joke is easy for everyone to get.

If you perform it while wearing ASICS shoes, it ties the setup and payoff together and might get an even bigger laugh.

Junior high school mathematics Question 4

@doromamireissei

Summer is almost over, isn't it?A sure-fire one-liner that will absolutely killA guaranteed viral one-liner gagOhta ProductionComedy entertainerIsseiCovered in mudOne-shot gag#YuzuSummer Colors

♪ Original Song – Issei – Issei

A gag where you turn a speed-related math problem into a parody song set to the melody of Yuzu’s “Natsuiro.” It’ll make people want to ask, “So, what’s the answer?” and someone quick-witted might blurt it out and hype the room even more.

When performing this bit, use your hands to show a slope or sing as if you’re riding a bicycle to get more laughs.

It also helps to sing with a cool, confident expression, as if you’re an artist.

Be sure to practice the song so you can deliver the problem in time with the melody.

You know those sudden, unreasonable requests like, “Do a quick gag!” when you’re totally unprepared? It happens a lot, right? In moments like that, this tissue paper trick is a lifesaver.

Just let a bit of the shirt you’re wearing underneath peek out through the gaps between your buttons.

That should help you get through it somehow.

When it comes to “funny faces,” they’re a simple party trick anyone can try.

It’s a classic, and precisely because it’s a classic, it’s a crowd-pleaser that makes everyone laugh! There are all sorts of types and techniques—using your hands or just moving your face.

The key is to go all in rather than doing it half-heartedly.

Why not find a funny face that even makes you laugh and practice it? Once you’ve got it to a showable level, surprise your friends during a break with a sudden “Hey, look at this!” and pull your funniest face!
