Witty, naughty and hilarious

Published on Jun, 2025

I love watching standup comedy and it's refreshing to watch one from a Japanese perspective. Not your typical tourist attraction but definitely worth going to. Crowd was fun and Meshida's quips are hilarious with a blend of wit, naughty, and nice. Glad I went, and will defnitely come back and stay longer next time.

Big Laughs! Tons of Fun!

Published on May, 2025

Meshida is an excellent comic navigating a budding and difficult comedy scene. His crowd work is great and he performed a delightful range of jokes. On top of that he has a very welcoming personality that will guarantee you have a great time.

So good that this is my second visit!

Published on May, 2025

This is my second time attending the show, and it just keeps getting better! Beyond the hilarious jokes and clever cultural teases, it's an incredible way to meet new people. I've never been to a stand-up show where the entire audience ends up bonding over beers and great conversation. Meshida-san truly engages with every participant on a personal level, making the experience feel extra special. I had a fantastic evening!

Laughter - Shouganai

Published on May, 2025

The comedy gig by Meshida was a lot of fun. I got to the venue 30 minutes before the start of the show and had a chance to chat and make introductions. His show is very interactive with a lot of back and forth with audience members. I certainly laughed a lot and would recommend his show to anyone visiting Japan and who is curious to see some Japanese humour. I would like to see his show again the next time I’m in Tokyo.

Cool Japan, Cool Comedy

Published on May, 2025

The professionalism and courtesy was top notch from beginning to end. Most importantly, it was a good, funny show. I would recommend to anyone who has the chance to go, should go. Educational, interactive, and hilarious. Can't ask for me from a good comedy show. Nevertheless, underneath it all, what you're watching is a silent revolution as Meshida-san changes the face of the comedy landscape for a generation and for an entire nation.
