@thor In Japan sit-down comedians actually exist!

And there is a comedy show about that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshiraku
Well, rakugo is only a part of the setting, not the main focus of the show, but it's good 😅

@m0xee @alternative_be @thor very cute and banger music but you're only getting 30% of the jokes unless you're a turboweeb despite the best efforts of the sub team
@mer
So true! But I enjoy shows like this one or Kitakubu Katsudou Kiroku. The fact that they build jokes not only on usual pop-culture stuff and "funny situations" , but also reference Japanese literature and folklore is entertaining. You can never get all the jokes, I bet, even some people watching Futurama don't get all the references, but that's the great thing about comedy — it's multilayered and you can still enjoy it!
