The Manzai TV Show

I just found this video in youtube. Is this an annual event like a competition ?

It’s a revival of a show that used to be broadcasted in the 70’s and stuff. They use it to select the number one manzai group in Japan so basically it’s a replacement for the M-1 Grand Prix that ended last year. I think it’s going to be an annual event. Not sure though…

The winner gets to host there own show (and guest on heaps of other shows too).

The winner this time was Punk Boo boo who also one the M-1 last year or the year before or something.
The whole show is on youku if you want to watch it

Thanks for the info. I really love manzai but it is really hard to understand.
