"Pain tolerance of an Italian soccer player".......haha. That's so good.

[@jakobraahauge7299]

😂 I gotta remember that one!

[@AliEtSaMaman]

Yup. That's when I clicked the "like" button. ^ ^

[@ResonanceMinor]

She is actually very funny. the crowd is making it seem awkward.

@Hamood ur Rahman IKR! Before uploading, the videographer should have added a laughtrack.

[@TheoCynical]

Eh, I've seen better shows from her. I think she just got nervous and it got to her. She can be smarter I know it!

[@danieltan4284]

she is awesome...

@David V did u watch any other work of her before jumping to conclusion?

[@izzy4reel]

This crowd did not deserve her. She is so funny.

#facts. Crowd had terrible energy and almost no sense of humor. 🥵 Yumi is a gem.

[@davew4998]

There's no need to apologise for her lack of new material.

[@TheoCynical]

That and her cadence was off on this show. It was a bit rushed. If she slowed down her pace and sharpened her language, phonetically, I mean, it might work better. Her comedy is smart and well-timed. I've seen her past shows where it was almost patient-like due to her accent and the japanese expectation amd thus, her jokes hit harder because there's no expectation in terms of her delivery and her accent just made it more unpredictable which thus made her joke more hilarious because it works and its competent. Maybe she just needs to tighten it up a bit. Comedy isnt easy I dont think, it's a social game to play with people's expectations and subvert it cleverly. If people can guess your delivery by the speed or whatever factors by whatever reasons; and that it just doesn't sound funny like you're trying too hard to become funny than just present yourself and joke "authentically"/consistently then it appears as if it were predictable and boring. Even with all this theorizing, she went out there and practiced and that's what matters. You can't force people to laugh but you can competently subvert their expectations and that's with practice and experience. Kudos to her for being on stage and gaining this experience.

[@TheoCynical]

@Pablo bigbongrips Gee thanks! You must be a comedian. Have you seen her other shows?

[@totorominion124]

Crowd was a little dead here but Yumi is doing great! Great to see how your delivery is always getting better!

[@walkertongdee]

that's because it's in her garage

[@chembelisangtam5001]

It's because she doing the same joke over again

[@rannierunsfast]

I think the audience audio/mic is just low.

[@masskonfuzion]

I always find it impressive when someone can be funny in a language that's not their native language. This is low key hilarious - crowd was kinda quiet, but there were some good laughs in this set

[@Thundernymph]

I love her style. Her delivery is so slow and patient. And yet it still catches you of guard.

[@idnyftw]

it's like a Steven Wright thing she's pulling there

[@mensrea1251]

"Sexy nuclear scientist with IQ 300... hot assassin schoolgirl with nunchuck and daddy issues..." OMG I died right there ... T__T

Wow, you can see audience can make or break a good set. They were cold and it started to mess up her timing. Good writing and professional attitude kept her alive. Can’t wait to see her hour long special some day.

[@MaxIronsThird]

Kind of a hard crowd, 7:15 that was a really hard silence, even though the joke was good and the delivery was great.

[@dencortes]

Maxi Iroh yeah. I agree! That was a good joke.

[@abdullahnurdien]

that was so great

[@Towkeeyoh]

That teeth joke was legit funny!

[@OnyxLee]

I totally got the joke, but I wasn't sure whether it was laughable, because it's so dark and so sad and so true.

[@Luna-ft8yh]

Seriously this is a serious human rights issue. It's just sad. If these are Canadians they were sorry for her. That's why they're not laughing. People should be free to express themselves in all cultures 👏✊

[@BillKrake]

I absolutely loved this girl, she's genuinely funny. She had me rollin

[@tjfrye11]

Tbh I liked wen she'd do the introduction bit... You know, "hello my name is yumi, like you & me..." & then some funny personal fact

[@Bigassboya]

People seem pleased. Sometimes you just get those "chuckle" crowds when you're on a small set. They just don't laugh loudly

[@groovymetal5679]

Supreme compliment-> Yuma’s phrasing sounds like Andy Kaufman’s soul has returned to us from Japan...omg, genius

[@SanJoseBob]

Ah man, she was sooo good, but her crowd was not sophisticated enough. The jokes just went over their heads. Her jokes were so spot on and so intelligent. I’d pay good money to see her live. Please come to San José, California ( big “Nesei” population) “San José Improv”, we’d love to have you!…. SanJoséBob

[@mrraamsridhar]

It was a bad audience.. they didn't even acknowledge half the jokes.. she was hilarious

It took me 5 minutes to figure out she was saying "...with the pain tolerance of an Italian soccer player." she's pretty funny.

Pls explain to me. I still don’t get this one

[@tsubakisan1147]

@@World-birder if you watch any Serie A (premier league Italian soccer) or world cup matches, the Italians will fall over screaming (hoping for a free kick or penalty) if the opposition players even brush past them. Much like that brazilian mummy's boy Neymar.

[@idnyftw]

I may be overthinking it, but it's cool how you can see the punchline from miles away but the long awkward delivery gets me all giggly just anticipating what I know she'll eventually say... it's pretty next level meta stuff!!!

[@jikenx9264]

I love her comedy lmaooo. Her "new to america" vibe makes it all the more better lol. Even if her english and personality changes i hope she learns to turn her current character into an actual stage personality bcuz these dead jokes coming out of this tiny sweet faced closetted woman are just awsome 😂

a native japanese jokes about not being able to know the capital city... long pause from the audience before it sinks in... whattacrowd

[@rosespriya92]

VainGloriousBastard I didn’t get that joke!

[@morisoba2550]

I'm from Japan. I think a joke about not being able to know Tokyo might work only in Osaka, which is the second largest city in Japan. People in Osaka are considering that everything in Osaka is better than in Tokyo. Otherwise this joke sounds quite boring in Japan.

[@Skyprince27]

@Mori Soba That’s not the first time I’ve heard that about Osaka versus Tokyo. Apparently, people from Osaka consider people from Tokyo too conservative and socially inept. Or so I’m told... never been there myself...

[@morisoba2550]

@@Skyprince27 I'm from Tokyo and honestly I just know that people from Osaka feel a kind of enmity towards people from Tokyo. And people from Osaka are generally more cheerful and open minded than people from Tokyo, which is probably related with their negative perception on people from Tokyo.
