Popular comedy & manzai bits that are a hit with elementary school kids. Simple one-liner gags (51–60)
career womanBuruzon Chiemi
Comedian Chiemi Blouson’s skit—featuring a career-woman’s comically bold quotes inspired by music videos from artists like Beyoncé, flanked by handsome “with B” men waiting in the background—was hugely popular even among elementary schoolers, and everyone was quoting her catchphrase, “3.5 billion.” These bits, said to be inspired by Beyoncé’s music videos and the like, create a distinctly international vibe with their exaggerated expressions.
It’s even funnier when performed by a girl who’s usually the quiet, unassuming type.
[TikTok] Funny One-Shot Gag Compilation
If you want to do a funny one-shot gag, why not take inspiration from the funny one-shot gags posted on TikTok? Lots of ordinary people—like regular students, not professional comedians—are showing off their own best one-shot gags.
If you copy the gags you see comedians do on TV, you might end up overlapping with someone else, or people might be too used to them and the bar could feel too high.
But if it’s a one-shot gag from someone totally unknown, you don’t have to worry about that! Use them as inspiration and go all out with your own full-swing one-shot gag!
imitationMito cap
Mr.
Mito Cap’s “You’re gonna do that?” impression videos are popular.
They’re impressions everyone knows but never thought to actually try, and they’re a big hit.
Their clarity and unique angle make you feel like a new genius has been born.
Among them, impressions of anime and celebrities are easy for people to get and relatively simple to imitate, so give them a try.
If you perform them in class, everyone will probably laugh.
It’s important to keep an eye on these kinds of trends, too.
Nooo!Tom Brown
Tom Brown is a duo whose banter—between Hiroki Nunokawa and Michio—becomes strangely addictive.
Since being selected as finalists in the 2018 M-1 Grand Prix, their popularity has surged, and they’ve been appearing on many variety and other TV shows.
Their signature gag is the very simple “Dame!” (“No!” or “Not allowed!”).
When someone makes a suggestion, they swing their arms dramatically and deliver the line while tapping the top of the head like a tsukkomi.
Try practicing it as a comeback when someone does a silly bit!

one-shot gagEgashira 2:50
Egashira 2:50 is beloved for his personality and unique comedic style.
His YouTube channel is buzzing, and he’s winning strong support even from elementary school kids.
So how about trying out some of Egashira 2:50’s gags? I especially recommend “Dōn!” and “I’ve got a word to say to you.” They have a strong impact, so they’re perfect for grabbing attention at a party or event.
Some of his gags can be a bit too intense, though, so I suggest choosing carefully.
one-shot gagKawahara of Tenjikunezumi (Tenjikunezumi Kawahara)
The comedy duo Tenjikunezumi consists of the enigmatic, ultra-mysterious Kawahara and the anything-goes comedian Seshimo.
Lately, you’ve probably been seeing “Seshimo Chance!” on all kinds of TV shows.
The more dead serious he is, the funnier it somehow gets…
Their sketches are very surreal, but Kawahara’s solo gags take the surreality even further.
It’ll be interesting to see how elementary school kids react! Their best bit is the boxer and ramen noodle draining routine.
Every sketch has a slow-burn kind of humor.
Recommended for people who love acting and have strong performance skills!
Pretty wild, right?Sugichan
It’s a bit that the comedian Sugi-chan made popular in 2012.
The distinctive rising intonation at the end is funny, so even if it doesn’t mean anything, if you just keep shouting “I’m wild, right?” in class, everyone will laugh.
You don’t see Sugi-chan on TV much anymore, but I think this one-shot gag is a timeless power phrase.
