漫才
A form of Japanese comedy involving two people, a [i]Boke[/i] (funny man) and a [i]Tsukkomi[/i] (straight man), trading rapid-fire jokes. The [i]boke[/i] often mispronounces words or forgets what to say, while the [i]tsukkomi[/i] often sets their partner straight with a hit to the head (a [[harisen]] is common for this). This form of comedy is often done in the Kansai dialect.
