Banana Man's Shabby Comedy (aka: Shabukome!) In the mid-2000s, when the comedy world was leaning towards the "easy-to-understand" style of television, a unique work was born. That work is this one, "Banana Man's Shabby Comedy." Encounter with Legendary Producer, Shigeichi Kuwahara A notable point of this work is that it was directed by Shigeichi Kuwahara, a key figure in Snake Man Show and a leader in Japanese subculture. The natural comedic talent of Banana Man (Osamu Shitara and Yuki Himura) and Kuwahara's cynical and high-sense direction created a chemical reaction, resulting in a "world-class comedy" that blends documentary, motion graphics, and skits. Value as a Collector's Piece Luxurious Creative Team: TYCOON GRAPHICS (package design), EVISBEATS, and Nobukazu Takemura are among the music staff, making it an excellent archive of Tokyo street culture in the 2000s. Condensed Atmosphere of the Time: As symbolized by the transgressive catchphrase, "Do you want to do drugs until you die, or do you want to live and laugh?", you can fully enjoy Banana Man's sharp wit, which cannot be seen on terrestrial television today. Product Details Release Year: 2005 Main Feature: Approximately 75 minutes Condition: Both the disc and jacket are stored as a collection. The disc features Banana Man's original artwork. This is a valuable piece of material that allows you to reconfirm the raw "sharpness" and "sense" of the two, who are now national stars. Not only for comedy fans, but also for those who love the Ura-Harajuku culture of the time, we highly recommend you pick it up. Add the "Shabby Comedy of the Shabby Era" to your collection.
