Muneto Ashizawa of the three-person comedy unit "Papcorn"

Hello!
My name is Fumika Mabuchi.

This time, continuing from last time, I'll talk about my husband Muneto Ashizawa's work in comedy.
(For more information about Muneto Ashizawa, please see the previous article .)

My husband belongs to a three-person comedy group called "Papcorn."

Formed in 2003
He's appeared on shows like "Bakusho On Air Battle" and "ABC Comedy Grand Prix," so comedy fans might already know him.

However, in recent years, Papcorn hasn't appeared on television or in award shows.
I don't know the reason why they haven't appeared, but Papcorn's act is interesting because they originally had a large number of members and were involved in theater, so they perform slightly longer skits that showcase their acting skills.
Perhaps they want to explore those strengths of theirs.
So, I think that's fine for now.

Recently, she has mainly been performing at live events and pursuing solo activities, and last year she finally held her first solo concert in a long time!

But then, the COVID-19 pandemic forced me to give up on that plan.
Oh, that's a shame...

But!
But that's not the end of the story with Popcorn!
I took this situation to my advantage and started something new.

It's called the note performance!!
The idea is to hold a solo live performance that can be read and watched using a web service called "note".
You might be wondering, "What does that mean?" and not be able to picture it, but it means this.

With a typical solo concert, you have to go to the venue, and you can only see it for a limited time.
However, if you purchase the article for this note performance,

◆Can be viewed again and again
◆You can watch part of it and then say, "I'll finish it tomorrow."

and,
◆You can start watching anytime

That's right, the article about last year's first performance is still available online, so you can still watch it now.
They themselves said, "You can watch it as long as the note service continues!"
There are also several videos available to watch for free, so please check them out!
