Yagi Masumi:
The broadcast of Eigyo-1 Grand Prix 2026 First Half Special has been decided.
We have already had an incredible number of meetings to prepare. I thought there would be no more sales manuals, but there still were.
And the book publication has been decided. The content is useful not only for comedians but for everyone.
Please check out the latest from Eigyo-1 Grand Prix.
Takahashi Shigeo:
The amazingness of comedians. The hardship of comedians. The fun of comedians.
Watching Eigyo-1 Grand Prix really shows you the true nature of comedians.
I'm sure this time too, the brilliance of comedians will explode.
Let's enjoy the numerous incidents that happened in the first half!
Takurou's Comments:
Akagi Yu:
After winning M-1, the number of difficult manzai performances has increased. There are many places where the results are quite severe, but I think battle-hardened sales warriors would have a way to make audiences laugh even in such places. I want to learn sales techniques from this Eigyo-1 Grand Prix.
Kimura Band:
I'm honored to be able to appear on Eigyo-1 Grand Prix, which I've been watching for a long time! When I first learned about it, I thought it was a fun talk show where comedians would tell interesting stories about sales, but I was shocked to see such a deep variety show! It's a program where the strength of veterans shines, so I'm going to experience it live! I'm also looking forward to seeing whether Kumada's outburst will be shown!!
Dondecorte's Comments:
Kobashi Kyosaku:
Yay! I can appear on Eigyo-1 Grand Prix!! Yay!!
I did well in M-1, but in sales, there are many amazing comedians again, so it's a different battle!!
I'll definitely do my best!!
Watanabe Ginji:
I was finally able to enter the prestigious award competition, Eigyo-1 Grand Prix, for the first time.
Because I was evaluated in a manzai award competition, it's not widely known, but I have many sales-oriented weapons such as a selfie stick, a kendama, LED tape, and a scrubbing brush (can be decorated) that I walk around with.
I intend to use all my resources to liven things up.
Because I can't work normally at all.
