What are some Jap comedies you've watched recently.
>>
>>217227436
I saw a really funny japanese show the night I flew in but I don’t speak the language so I’ll never be able to find it. it was 3 different comedians all doing bits and one of them included them having to talk shit to various things. one guy ended up roasting his a pile of money, another comedian, then his own shoes, like his shoes were up on the pedestal and he was just laying into them. Maybe it was the 7-Eleven whisky or the jet lag but I was in stitches

japanese comedy has been pretty consistently funny for a few decades, they really shine in abbot and costella style rapid-fire duo comedy, called manzai
but once fat/ugly japanese people started becoming more common in the 2000s those fat/ugly people exclusively use "i'm so fat and ugly and random" as their crutch without being actually funny

Almost all of Japanese comedy is bad. The scripted stuff is all Western sitcom tier that relies on pop culture references or tired tropes and cliches. Everything else is variety show slop.

Tropes such as?

The Japanese are the least humorous people on the planet, they've never made anything that's genuinely funny, in any medium, ever. Japanese people are incredibly autistic, so whatever is supposed to be funny is deeply exaggerated and clearly pointed out to make sure everyone knows it's a joke (hurrrr I hit you with the paper fan baka!). This creates the opposite reaction for anyone who isn't autistic, making it an incredibly unfunny and painful experience. Even in Japanese works I like generally, the humor is always terrible to the point of being distracting.

Just judging from the art style of what he posted, it was made at the turn of the century and is 20-30 years old. I don't think a 18yo would be watching that

manzai ruined Japanese comedy

I love Japanese comedy, but Yasuko is a dumb cunt who nobody likes, more of a fucking burikko than Ano-chan.

There is some Japanese comedy that translates just fine. Watch Red Spectacles or Talking Head by Mamoru Oshii (Yes, the Ghost in the Shell guy) or Survive Style 5 or We Are Little Zombies. All perfectly funny movies, very funny in some cases, even toma foreigner.

And then there's stuff that just feels like utter nonsense. The Japanese have that thing when telling jokes... Like, take a simple knock knock joke. In the west it would go like

>Knock Knock
>Who’s there?
>Nobel
>Nobel who?
>No bell, that’s why I knocked.

In Japan it would go like

>Knock Knock
>Who’s there?
>Nobel
>Nobel who?
>No bell, that’s why I knocked.
>Eh? That not your name, what are you even talking about, idiot!

Like, they have that thing where they need the comedic misunderstanding to be called out at the end otherwise they don't think the punchline's complete. Which, to a westerner, just feels like ruining the joke.

People say this but then when it comes time to show off the genius of American comedy it gets quiet or someone bravely comes forward with something from 50 years ago

Japanese media in general is total dogshit now. Went from regularly producing good TV and amazing movies to making low quality slop. Korea has mogged japan in media quality

Buster Keaton is still unsurpassed as far as pantomime goes. New age american humor is entirely stand ups on the other hand, and they dragged pretty much every other country there too by pure osmosis.

My hotel in Japan had this giant luxury soak tub with a TV attached, and while enjoying a bath I'd flip through the channels and nearly every fucking channel, from cooking to news to book reviews and interviews, had some sort of social media panel of viewers just giving their opinions and interjections at random, from the top right corner. It was surreal. I think the only channel without it was the news.

Haha what an embarrassing situation!
My girlfriend would be so mad at me!

Japan actually invented reaction videos before YouTube even existed.

>>217232960
Well that would explain it. I loved the country, people were very nice. But the tv and ads were hilarious.

that's why they have the PiP reaction faces in comedy shit. They have to see someone react, hear their response.
we do the same thing but it's just a laugh track or someone raising an eyebrow. the signal is still there but it's more subtle.
The brits would have to explain their shit to you, their dry nonsense makes me laugh but I don't see the pattern to it
>>
>>217232492
They have a small reaction face window on quite many shows and I don't think they even interject much. Reacting inside that window is a talked about a skill in Japan and some are know for the best reacts and interjections in that small window. There's one guy everyone seems to hate but he's the absolute master of these window reacts.
>>
>>217233869
Now I remember, I think they call that reacting WAIPU, like English wipe. It's some Japanglish with vague origins.
