■THE RAMPAGE takes on the challenge of “real improvisational skits” with comedians!
THE RAMPAGE, celebrating its 10th anniversary, challenges a “new stage” and opens up new frontiers in the title program “STAGE RAMPAGE”.
The first episode, October 5th, will be broadcast as a one-hour special. Teruyuki Tsuchida will be the MC, and he will take on the challenge of performing a “serious improvisational skit” with comedians.
The improvisational skit was so great that even Tsuchida was horrified, saying, “I can’t believe it was a skit without any planning or rehearsal.” THE RAMPAGE has to take on a “100% improvisational” skit without any rehearsal or even discussion. How will THE RAMPAGE enhance the comedy based solely on the settings prepared by the comedians?
This time, THE RAMPAGE’s 16 members will be divided into 6 teams, each teaming up with a comedian to perform a skit. It was a battle format in which 35 spectators standing by in front of the stage voted to decide which team was the most entertaining. The comedian group includes talented artists such as Kamomentaru, Yadan, Love Letters, and Perper.
The team allocation and skit titles are as follows.
Team BLACK “Contact Lenses”
Jin, LIKIYA x Kammental
Team GREEN “Crime prevention training”
Rui Yonamine, Shogo Iwatani, Takuma Goto x Yadan
Team PURPLE “Hello from inside the toilet”
Kazuma Kawamura, Kaisei Takechi, Takahide Suzuki x Love Letters
Team RED “Gakugeikai”
RIKU, Shohei Urakawa, Kenta Kamiya x Kamomentaru
Team ORANGE “Childhood Friend’s Shop”
Itsuki Fujiwara, Shin Hasegawa, Hokuto Yoshino x Paper
Team BLUE “Mirrorman”
Shogo Yamamoto, Ryu x Love Letters
Taking the lead was Team BLACK, made up of Jin and LIKIYA, the two leaders who support THE RAMPAGE.
LIKIYA, who has been prepared a one-piece costume, is confused by Udai Iwasaki’s repeated barrage of nonsense, but desperately tries to eat.
On the other hand, the group is dressed in bright red full-body tights and takes on a very mysterious role…
Team up with Team GREEN Haya-dan, consisting of Yonamine, Iwatani, and Goto. The three of them, including Goto, who says, “I’m nervous and have a stomach ache…”, fit perfectly into Yadan’s powerful worldview, and each individuality shines through.
Yonamine, disguised as a robber, creates an unexpected synergy with the Gayadan, who has a unique worldview cultivated in his native Okinawa!?
Then, Iwatani dresses up as an old woman and Goto dresses up as a sumo wrestler for some reason, and at the end of the extreme situation, their expressions and developments are sure to make you laugh.
Team PURPLE of Kawamura, Takechi, and Suzuki will perform a unique skit.
The stage that Love Letters has prepared for them is an unexpected toilet. Before the skit, Takechi complains, “I was just shaking…” but there is a mechanism on the toilet seat that motivates the three of them whether they like it or not, and they end up performing a skit that is too shocking for them. And Kazuma Kawamura screams in the toilet.
Pay attention to the real reactions of the three people that no one has ever seen before, which can only be brought out by the worldview of Love Letters.
Team RED of RIKU, Urakawa, and Kamiya is teaming up for Kamomental. The setting of the skit, which should have been perfectly created by the “creative demon” Udai, changes shape rapidly with one member’s every move.
Urakawa, dressed as a woman, exploded with a certain power word from her first improvisational move. RIKU, who was dressed as Momotaro, and Kamiya, who was dressed as an old man, caught on to the momentum, and the punch line at the end made the whole venue groan…
Who on earth was the hero who shifted the settings set by Udai?
Team ORANGE, which includes Fujiwara, Hasegawa, and Yoshino, is a group of talented performers who take on the challenge of performing and skits with a unique worldview.
They had a lot of acting experience and were thought to be the most stable team, but all three of them were confused by the skit setting where Perper had too many quirks. Wearing a bubbly suit, Yoshino shows off his mischievous side despite his flashy costume.
Hasegawa, who was dressed as a mother, helped with her improvisational skills. And Fujiwara, dressed as a chef, shows off his guts and shows off his one-shot tricks!?
Team BLUE, the performer duo of Yamamoto and Ryu, appeared with Love Letters wearing long hair wigs. She fully demonstrates the dance skills she has honed every day.
Yamamoto goes above and beyond Yutaro Tameguchi’s instructions, and Ryu, who looks at Yamamoto’s back and creates unique movements, is filled with the feeling of being a younger brother. Pay attention to the uneven combination of the two.
