At the end of the lecture, the participating University of Tokyo students formed six pairs to come up with original manzai and perform the material.

NON STYLE・Akira Ishida
It was wonderful to see each duo talking properly and creating material. The good thing about this event is that each person has a different level of interest, but the two people are willing to share and communicate. I hope this kind of communication continues in your life in the future. I think the most important point for next week’s live performance is having a “big voice,” so I hope you don’t get too anxious and do your best.

Shishigashira
We also enjoyed and learned a lot from Mr. Ishida’s lecture. I was very interested in seeing what kind of stories the University of Tokyo students would create, and as expected, most of them were original. There were many words that were easy to understand, and I could feel that he was intelligent. When you’re in front of an audience at a live performance, you might get nervous and back away or lower your voice, but I think it’s a great opportunity, so I want you to enjoy it as much as you can.

While looking ahead to the 2025 Osaka/Kansai Expo and 2030, the year in which the SDGs goals will be achieved, we will promote active dialogue and collaboration between academia and entertainment, create new sustainable value, and make recommendations for the future. That’s what I’m aiming for.
