Department of Japanese studies is one day every year.

comedy programs

I’m going to talk about comedy programs.

First, I examined which comedy programs that broadcast now are best to senior or junior high school student.

The best of the comedy program is “Bakusyou Red Carpet”. Both of senior and junior elected this program is No.1.

The second place is “Mecha ×2　Iketeru.” It is also same result between senior and junior high school students.
But the result is different between senior and junior high school student from the third place.
