Some say love～/Doukyusei

A heartwarming comedy portraying the relationship of man and woman,
the pair Mie Takakuwa and Kota pantomimes how people repeatedly gets together and split.

Many of the scenes you see in a relationship that Doukyusei acts out are serious in real life,
but Doukyusei is able to portray the scenes in a silly manner to create laughter.

For instance, the relationship of man and woman are represented by a towel and a person using the restroom.
The towel(Mie) wants the person(Kota) to whipe their hands with the towel, as if the towel was the female in
a relationship and the person using the restroom was the male in the relationship. Mie hopes to be embraced by Kota
but because Kota does not wash his hands in the restroom, she is not embraced.

I interviewed Doukyusei and asked them why they use a figurative language to portray man and woman relationship.
Doukyusei smiled and told me it makes serious scenes "cute, funny, and humorous."

Making something serious become silly and funny is something only Doukyusei can do.
Come and see Doukyusei change what you believe to be serious or shocking in life become humorous.
