Reiwa Roman's Solo Live "RE:IWAROMAN" on May 16, 2026 (Sat) Sells Out Immediately, First Comedy Duo to Perform for 20,000 at K-Arena Yokohama, Live Viewing to be Held in All 47 Prefectures!

It has been decided that the Reiwa Roman solo live performance "RE:IWAROMAN," to be held on Saturday, May 16, 2026, at K-Arena Yokohama, will be live-viewed in movie theaters across all 47 prefectures of Japan.

This performance marks Reiwa Roman's first solo live show in approximately 7 years and will be the first solo performance by a comedy duo at K-Arena Yokohama.

The venue, K-Arena Yokohama, is one of the world's largest music arenas and is known as a "venue designed for sound," boasting the highest level of acoustic equipment in Japan. It is a space designed to deliver artists' live performances with the best possible sound, and its overwhelming sound quality is highly acclaimed in the domestic and international music scenes.

The reason Reiwa Roman chose this venue is to deliver their performance, which uses "words and sound" as their weapons, on an unprecedented scale and with exceptional precision.

The nuances of words, the timing, the speed. To maximize the "information volume of sound," which is the essence of manzai (Japanese stand-up comedy), the decision was made to hold the event at K-Arena Yokohama, considered the pinnacle of music live venues.

This performance, with its 20,000-seat capacity, and its unprecedented challenge and high level of attention, resulted in all general sale tickets selling out on the same day.

This outcome, demonstrating an exceptional scale and passion for a comedy live show, has garnered attention not only as a solo performance but also as an endeavor to greatly expand the possibilities of manzai as an expressive art form.

Furthermore, this performance is a new challenge to deliver "word entertainment" on a grander scale, moving beyond traditional stages and frameworks.

In response to this overwhelming response, live viewing has been decided to be held in movie theaters across all 47 prefectures to bring this performance to a wider audience.

Reiwa Roman was formed in 2018. The duo, consisting of Kuruma and Matsui Kemuri, has gained popularity for their unique linguistic sense and fast-paced banter, and they are a skilled pair who have won the M-1 Grand Prix in both 2023 and 2024.

This "RE:IWAROMAN" is a solo performance themed around Reiwa Roman's "Restart" and represents a new challenge based on their career to date.

The live viewing, which can be enjoyed on the big screen with powerful sound at movie theaters, is one of the few opportunities to experience this performance now that tickets for the venue have sold out.

For those who could not attend the venue, please experience this historic performance at movie theaters nationwide.
