Lastly, it is a rakugo story of Kokontei Kikunojo.
After grabbing the heart of the customer with a sarcastic pillow, the classic rakugo “Turnover” was performed. The conversation between the drunk man and his wife was heard in sophisticated narratives. In the Taiga drama “Idaten”, Rakugo is being taught by Shinsho Kokontei and other actors that Takeshi plays.

Part 2

Finally, it ’s Beat Takeshi.
In the opening MC talk, Takeshi-san was recording a TV program and had not yet arrived at the venue, so the talk show itself was in danger, but in fact it was a story. Takeshi-san.
Asakusa has become familiar and has become an entertainer since his childhood. For the unique people he met in this area, he used his own Poisonous tongue and talked with his Attendant, Al Kitago, at a good pace. You
It was impressive that the customers continued to laugh at Takeshi-san’s unstoppable Poisonous tongue.
