Description

Back of the Book

Ever since he failed to make his crush laugh, shy Azemichi Shijima has secretly been studying the art of comedy. Meanwhile, his classmate Taiyo Higashikata has big dreams of being funny but no follow-through. When the two team up, they just might be able to create a wave of laughter that reaches to the heavens and propels them to the top of the comedy world!

Under a fake name, Shijima has cut his comedy chops sending in funny captions to radio shows. When Higashikata discovers his secret, he ropes Shijima into performing in a comedy duo with him at a school show. The live applause they receive is heady, inspiring Higashikata to ask Shijima to join in an audacious dream—to rise to the top of Japan’s comedy scene by winning major events in both stand-up and sketch comedy!
