A Night of Laughs at Owarai-night Sensation

On January 26, 2026, the highly anticipated comedy event, "Owarai-night Sensation: DJ KOO presents ちゃんKOOお笑いLIVE!! vol.6," took place at the Seisou Suginami in Tokyo. This marks the first show of the year, and as expected, the atmosphere was electric from the start, thanks to DJ KOO's lively DJ set that had the audience hyped before the actual performances began.

Fans were treated to special merchandise, including a limited-edition muffler towel designed by Nakano from the popular comedy duo Kawatate, as well as glow sticks that many attendees brought along to enhance the live experience. The excitement in the room was palpable as the crowd gradually warmed up to the music and the comedic talent of the night.

The event featured an impressive lineup of comedians, handpicked by DJ KOO himself, who is a fervent admirer of comedy. However, the night took an unexpected turn when Westland's member, Iguchi, who was one of the most awaited acts, had to miss the show due to influenza. In his place, Kyuu from the same agency stepped in as the opening act, delivering an outstanding performance that showcased his skills as a finalist from the M-1 Grand Prix.

Kyuu's natural charm and humor shone through, though he did appear a bit flustered initially, especially when DJ KOO playfully commented on his hamburger bit. This moment set a lighthearted tone for the night and made the audience roar with laughter.

Next up, River from Westland emerged solo to share some spontaneous, unscripted comedy that left the crowd in stitches. Initially, he downplayed his act, stating, "It's not a big solo act; just some updates on my life." He then dove into anecdotes about his partner's recent health issues due to influenza, which was an unusual perspective as it focused on his own frustrations instead of the usual caricatures of complaints from Iguchi. This refreshing twist got a hearty laugh from the audience, especially when he self-deprecatingly acknowledged how the act would still exist without his partner.

DJ KOO, ever the supportive figure, cheered for him with an enthusiastic rebuttal, countering that the humor of the act absolutely depended on him. He even captured the moment by taking selfies of River during his set, a sight that added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening.

The duo, Impossible, used the stage to their advantage by energetically presenting a series of quick-witted, short sketches that had the crowd rolling with laughter. With innovative themes and uniquely hilarious delivery, Impossible offered a unique flavor, complemented perfectly by DJ KOO who amplified the atmosphere with timely sound effects.

During San Shiro's skit, things began smoothly when Komiya engaged with DJ KOO, only to be thrown off midway by the unpredictable antics of both Aida and DJ KOO. The duo's humorous improvisation drew cheers from an amused audience. The chemistry between the comedians and DJ KOO was a highlight, culminating in a moment where DJ KOO unwittingly brightened the scenario with revealing thoughts that left everyone giggling.

In the talks between performances, the comedians, including River and Impossible's Hiru-chan, grinned as they challenged DJ KOO in a segment that showcased DJ skills and comedic talent alike. With absolute enthusiasm, Pyro, another rising star, prompted the crowd into a frenzy with engaging interactions.

As the event progressed, audiences were treated to the eagerly awaited "Yoko-TRF" segment, where teams competed under the spotlight to perform various TRF hits without taking a breath. The comedic side of it saw DJ KOO demanding perfection of the participants, setting the expectations high. The gentle ribbing around their music abilities filled the room with laughter, particularly when DJ KOO's own singing was humorously critiqued by the attendees.

Despite the playful jests and minor mishaps, the atmosphere remained jubilant, revealing DJ KOO's undeniable charm and connecting spirit that resonated with both the audience and performers."

As the evening approached its climax, the crowd expected laughter to just keep building. The final segment focused on a game where comedians had to fit perfectly into a lyrical rhythm, and with DJ KOO leading the charge, things descended into charming chaos with everyone eager to outdo one another. DJ KOO's enthusiasm matched the energy of his talented colleagues, creating a delightful spectacle.

Ultimately, the event included unforgettable moments, such as an audience photo time featuring all artists and a meet-and-greet session for lucky fans with DJ KOO. As attendees left the venue, the laughter echoed in their minds, and anticipation for the next comedy night filled the air.
