Sasara Nurude, a.k.a. Tragic Comedy, is a manzai comedian, former member of Mad Comic Dialogue and the leader of Dotsuitare Hompo.

Profile[]

CURRENT PROFILE - 2020

A stand up comedian. Though on stage he's a genius at making people laugh, in private, for some reason he repeats tacky gags. He and Rosho were in a manzai duo together as Dotsuitare Hompo, but they disbanded and he now works as a solo artist. The name Dotsuitare Hompo was later inherited to become their new team name.

A long time ago, he teamed up with Yokohama Division's Samatoki as Mad Comic Dialogue.

OLD PROFILE - 2019-2020

He is a stand-up comedian. There's nothing he loves more than making people laugh. Curiously, while he's a silver-tongued comedic genius on stage, his friends are more accustomed to hearing strings of awful puns.

He used to be part of Mad Comic Dialogue with Samatoki back in Ikebukuro.

Appearance[]

Sasara has ombre-green hair. His eyes are bright gold, although they are usually closed, which is known in Japanese media as “fox eyes” (“kitsune no me”). He has a tragus piercing on both ears.

Sasara wears an orange-and-brown hound's-tooth patterned suit with a white shirt, pink tie and black shoes. He wears a fan shaped lapel pin. He’s also usually seen with a fan which is a common attribute for Japanese manzai comedy. (The fan is also known as a harisen).

Sasara’s Hypnosis Mic is a gold-colored ribbon microphone with a fan decoration on a stand. His speakers take the form of a maneki-neko (lucky cat) and koban coins - the middle coin reads "rhyme".

Personality[]

Sasara presents himself as a walking Kansai stereotype: loud, friendly, talkative, and humorous. He likes to crack jokes at any occasion, no matter how inappropriate it is. His speech, mannerisms, and style of dress are over the top and ridiculous. He's shown to be charismatic and a natural genius at comedy and entertainment, being a famous manzai comedian at just 26. Offstage however, his jokes tend to be lame and awful, often crude or a cheesy dad joke.

Behind his jovial exterior, Sasara is crafty and intelligent, being able to read people very well. He tends to insult people in his head, even when he's outwardly being friendly. He immediately knew he was being scammed when his coworker offered him a "business opportunity", something which Rosho completely fell for. However, Sasara plays the idiot constantly, to the point that most of his coworkers and even Ichiro thinks he actually is one.

Sasara is always looking for things that can interest or excite him, even if it's dangerous - such as helping beat up a gang, letting a shady individual join his team, or undergoing a brutal week-long Buddhist training camp. He's willing to go through unpleasant experiences if he gets a good, usually funny, story out of it.

Despite his apparent friendliness, Sasara refuses to get close with other people. He has severe trust issues, as his parents' constant fighting and eventual divorce led him to realize that relationships are fragile, and he purposely keeps a distance between himself and others due to this and was determined to only have shallow friendships. This also caused him to be self-reliant, to not depend on anyone other than himself. He's stated that the person who he ever wanted to be friends with is Rosho, who Sasara is very clingy with. After their break-up, Sasara continued talking to an imaginary Rosho and continually thought back on their conversations, unable to let their partnership go.

Rap Ability[]

  • Killing Joke: Makes the opponent laugh uncontrollably, causing them to mess up the delivery of their raps and canceling out their attack.

Additionally, "Joke" is written as the English loanword ジョーク(Jooku) and not the traditionally used kanji version, 冗談(Joudan)
