Popular comedy and manzai bits that elementary school kids will love. Simple one-liner gags.

Making a comeback!? The song about 'taking what comes from the right and letting it flow to the left'

Originally active as the boke (funny man) of the comedy duo Ice Cream, Moody Katsuyama skyrocketed to fame with his solo act featuring a comedic song bit.

Thanks to this routine, he landed the major role of singing backup for Kiyoshi Maekawa at the 2007 NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, making the name Moody Katsuyama widely known.

While mood kayō (mood-style ballads) may not immediately resonate with today’s elementary school kids, the lyrics—which simply repeat the title’s premise—and the distinctive melody are sure to be a hit even among children.

It’s a uniquely quirky song routine that feels fresh precisely because it’s the Reiwa era.

Kai~noKanpei Kazama

Natsume Mito and Kanpei Hazama perform “Kai~no~” — Poké Muhi new collaboration campaign & collaborative song unveiling PR event 3

It’s also nice to perform a bit that everyone knows.

So let me introduce Kanpei Hazama’s signature gag, “Kaii-no.” The way to do it is very simple: just rub your butt against something nearby while repeating “kaii-no.” It’s easier to get the feel if you watch the original, but try tightening your throat a little and saying it in a cute voice.

By the way, this gag is simple and highly versatile, so you can also slip it in during transitions in your talk.

Backflip?!

[If You Can’t Do This, You’re Not a College Student] I Tried Unearthing Some One-Shot Gags!

This is a video of Kagawa University students doing one-liner gags one after another.

A young man boldly declares he’ll do a backflip, then starts stepping backward.

The gag is that he repeats ‘back’ ten times—instead of a backflip.

As expected of a national university, their sense of humor is quite unique.

A pigeon putting on airsTada from COWCOW

COWCOW Tada “The Posing Pigeon” – GYG084 @ JODEKI GAGGER BEST 100

This is a solo routine by COWCOW’s Tada.

It’s a bit surreal, and if it hits an elementary schooler’s funny bone, it could trigger huge laughs.

It requires acting skills, so it’s suited for people who like performing.

You personify a pigeon, jut your neck out, and walk rhythmically.

Then you stop, strike a cool pose, and say a single line—“Coo-coo”—mimicking a pigeon’s call.

The timing of the line is important, too.

Tada, a skilled comedian who appeared in the R-1 Grand Prix for consecutive years, also has other killer bits like “This” and “The 50-Sound Box.” Be sure to use them as reference.
