Everyday/What-if Questions (21–30)
What drink would you like to come out of the faucet?
Normally, when you turn on a faucet, only water comes out—but wouldn’t it be fun if something else did? Just like in Ehime Prefecture, where there are faucets that dispense the region’s specialty: mikan juice, let’s ask what drinks people would like to come out of a faucet and compare the answers.
Rather than simply naming a favorite drink, setting the premise that it has to come from a faucet should lead to responses that take the characteristics of water pipes into account.
You might even find people who love a drink so much that they’d want it even if it could damage the pipes.
What’s the weirdest food you’ve ever eaten?
Stories about food are a classic way to liven up a conversation.
Among them, the theme of “weird foods” always leads to hilarious episodes that make you laugh just by listening.
It’s fun to talk about why you tried a strange food and what you thought of it, and the playful jabs from others make things even more lively.
The speaker’s reactions are entertaining, and listeners start recalling and sharing their own experiences, so the topic never runs dry.
Whether it’s famous oddities from abroad or something unusual you tried for the first time recently, it’s a conversation that both deepens your food knowledge and keeps the energy high.
Which anime character do you think is the strongest?
The theme is to talk about the characters each of us feels are the strongest in anime and decide who really is the strongest.
In our imaginations, we can stage dream crossovers that transcend the boundaries between series.
It would also be exciting to set categories—like combat power or wealth—and determine the strongest in each field.
How well you know a character’s episodes in their series, and whether you can present episodes that make them seem stronger than the opponent’s pick, are key to making your favorite come out on top.
Mixing genres—battle series and slice-of-life, for example—might make for an even more fun “strongest ranking.”
What are those mysterious photos in the camera roll?
Our smartphone camera rolls are filled with everyday life—casual photos and images we’ve saved for various reasons.
This concept is about browsing those camera rolls and showing each other images that even we can’t quite explain why we saved.
By talking about the situation or mindset in which we saved each image, you get a sense of how each person relates to photos and images.
It could also be fun to turn it into a format where you each show striking, unique shots from your camera rolls and decide which one is the ultimate winner.
What do you think about before going to bed?
This is a question about what people think about right before they fall asleep after getting into bed.
During the quiet moments with eyes closed, some kind of image is bound to come to mind, so let’s ask about that.
If you find someone who has similar thoughts, your conversation might be even more engaging.
You can also enjoy the differences in sleep habits, like people who doze off while thinking or those who fall asleep as soon as they get under the covers.
For those who have trouble falling asleep, their thoughts might develop and unfold into grand stories.
If you were to give yourself a nickname, what would it be?
Giving someone a nickname to make them feel familiar and easy to call is a common everyday scene, I think.
This question asks: instead of giving nicknames to others, if you were to give one to yourself, what would you choose to be called? As a rule of thumb for nicknames, people often use part of a name or base it on someone’s profile or behavior, so it also reveals how you think about what makes you distinctive.
From the sound that makes you want to say it to the specific words you use, you can sense a person’s taste in many different aspects.
Exciting Questions About Love (1–10)
Do you want to chase in love or be chased?
A classic topic about romance that everyone can get excited about.
You can talk about it seriously or joke around—either style keeps the conversation lively.
When contradictory lines like “I want to chase! But I don’t want to be the one who gets chased away!” pop up, the room will burst into laughter.
Part of the fun is discovering unexpected sides of people as everyone talks.
It’s also great because you can be honest about your feelings, throw in some witty comebacks, and share perspectives with each other.
The theme itself might be a bit embarrassing, but leaning into that on purpose is the key to enjoying it.
It’s perfect for lighthearted, laughter-filled conversations that warm up the atmosphere.
Can friendship between men and women exist?
A discussion theme that looks serious at first glance but unexpectedly sparks funny exchanges.
It easily splits opinions into things like “That could work” and “No way that would ever work,” and the fun lies in hearing everyone’s experiences and assumptions.
The gap between ideals and reality becomes apparent, people jump in with playful jabs, and laughter naturally emerges in the conversation.
Some answer earnestly while others joke around, so it’s appealing that everyone can enjoy it freely to match the mood of the group.
It’s a great way to learn how each person thinks, and if the atmosphere allows you to turn it into humor, the talk really livens up.
Precisely because there’s no single correct answer, it’s a theme that invites free-flowing conversation and excitement.
What was your first love like?
Speaking of classic topics in love talk, there’s that question: What was your first love like? Almost everyone has experienced a first love, right? Whether it was sweet and sour or a bittersweet memory, it becomes part of your story.
How old were you when you first fell in love? What was the person like? It could be a lovely time to reminisce while asking the other person about theirs, too.
And did you ever confess your feelings, or did it end with you just watching from afar? Be sure to ask that as well.
Remembering your first love might even inspire you to start working on yourself.
What kind of proposal would you like to receive?
Just talking about what kind of proposal you’d love to get is enough to make your heart race—and it’s definitely a topic that will get you and your friends excited.
Everyone has their own preferences for how they want to be proposed to.
Whether it’s at home where you feel most comfortable or at a restaurant with a stunning night view, the location is a key point for a once-in-a-lifetime proposal.
You’ll want it to be a proposal that conveys your partner’s sincere feelings and becomes a memorable moment that suits the two of you.
You’d probably get even more excited talking about what words you’d like to hear and what to do about the ring, too.
