 The comedy duo &#8220;Kishitakano&#8221; consists of Daisuke Kishi (33) and Masanari Takano (34). <a href="https://friday.kodansha.co.jp/article/339824">In the</a> first part of the series <a href="https://friday.kodansha.co.jp/article/339824">,</a> we looked back on their career from the formation of the duo to the present.
 In the second part, we go behind the scenes of their popular YouTube channel &#8220;I want to make Mr. Takano angry. which supports their popularity. The channel is now a monster, consistently recording over 1 million views, but behind the channel&#8217;s success lies a meticulous calculation.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 &#8211;The YouTube channel &#8220;I want to make Mr. Takano angry. What prompted you to start the channel?
 Takano: &#8220;I started the channel in &#8217;20 with three former comedian staff members, but the number of views didn&#8217;t increase even after a year of operation, and I thought it was a dead end. So in 2010, we changed the channel to a surprise channel. I changed the channel to a surprise channel in 2010, and the results came in rather quickly.
 Kishi &#8220;We only had Takano&#8217;s angry tsukkomi and his reaction to the surprises, so I thought I would try that.
 Takano: &#8220;We&#8217;re also comic comedians, aren&#8217;t we?
 Kishi &#8220;But what&#8217;s your best point? Kishi &#8220;But if you ask me &#8216;what&#8217;s your best point&#8217;, I think I can make the best use of it because I&#8217;m a strong comedian and I can give a good response when I&#8217;m in a tight corner.
 Takano: &#8220;Since it became a surprise, they don&#8217;t let me participate in the meetings anymore, and I miss that.
 Kishi &#8220;It wouldn&#8217;t be a surprise if they knew.
 Takano &#8220;No, but it&#8217;s lonely because I feel like I&#8217;m not part of the group.
 Kishi &#8220;When you do a surprise, sometimes Takano&#8217;s real anger comes out, that&#8217;s what&#8217;s interesting.
 Takano &#8220;I don&#8217;t really know what a surprise is, so of course I get angry.

</div>
 &#8211;What was the surprise that really pissed you off?
 Takano: &#8220;There is a video game called &#8216;Mario Maker,&#8217; and I was asked to clear a stage I had made. My cell phone stopped ringing for about a month (laughs).
 K: &#8220;I also posted my LINE account, so I guess the messages didn&#8217;t stop there either.
 Takano: &#8220;I really thought it was too much.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 &#8211;K: &#8220;We always have a fight after the shooting.
 Kishi &#8220;Takano always says thank you after the shoot.
 Takano: &#8220;Sometimes I say thank you because you make editing and planning and stuff interesting. But of course I get angry when he exposes my cell phone number or dumps coffee on my house.&#8221;
 Kishi &#8220;But Takano doesn&#8217;t get angry about most things if you make it interesting, right?&#8221;
 Takano: &#8220;As long as you make it funny (laughs), I got more jobs because of YouTube, and I appreciate it.

 &#8211;Kishi: &#8220;There are a lot of comedians, but there are also a lot of senior comedians who I think are great.
 Kishi: &#8220;There are many, but I would have to say my senior comedian from my office, UCCHAN NANCHAN.
 Takano &#8220;You are really great. He is a bit too much of a superstar, but we have been invited to Uchimura-san&#8217;s (Mitsuyoshi, 59) live performances, so among the younger members of the office, he is the one who has a close relationship with Uchimura-san.
 Kishi: &#8220;In the Maseki office, &#8216;Unnan&#8217; is like &#8216;Downtown&#8217; in Yoshimoto Kogyo. It&#8217;s great to be able to work with such a superstar from when you were young.
 Takano: &#8220;When we were invited to perform on Uchimura-san&#8217;s stage, we would arrive at 1:00 p.m. and he would already start rehearsals an hour or two before that.
 Kishi &#8220;I thought it was really great that Uchimura-san showed us behind our backs that his seniors are still making more effort than we are.
 Takano: &#8220;It&#8217;s absolutely wrong to think that we&#8217;re successful in the situation we&#8217;re in now.

 &#8211;Suddenly, do you have any thoughts on FRIDAY? (Laughs)
 Takano: &#8220;I don&#8217;t know, but I think &#8220;Kishitaka no Kano&#8221; will do something bad in the future (laughs).
 Kishi &#8220;No, what are you talking about?　I won&#8217;t do it.
 Takano &#8220;I&#8217;m sure you will hurt people. Kishi &#8220;You&#8217;ll definitely hurt people, or make gaffes and people won&#8217;t like you.
 K: &#8220;The only people I say bad things about are those who have done something really bad. I say bad things about Fujimon-san (Toshifumi Fujimoto, 52), for example.
 Takano &#8220;Don&#8217;t talk about Mr. Fujimon now!
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 Kishi &#8220;I have the same spirit as Mr. FRIDAY. I&#8217;m a comrade of Mr. FRIDAY.
 Takano &#8220;You&#8217;re a comedian and one of Mr. Fujimon&#8217;s friends, so don&#8217;t go to FRIDAY&#8217;s side!
 Kishi &#8220;It&#8217;s okay as long as you don&#8217;t do anything weird. You don&#8217;t have to do anything weird.
 Takano &#8220;&#8230;&#8230; I won&#8217;t cheat on you. I&#8217;ll try not to.&#8221;
 Kishi &#8211; &#8220;Don&#8217;t you have a desire to cheat on me or something?&#8221;
 &#8211;K: &#8220;I might not be so forgiving at that time (laughs).
 Takano: &#8220;If I have done something outrageous, please call me directly. If you come to me and say, &#8216;Here&#8217;s what happened,&#8217; I&#8217;ll be honest with you (laughs).&#8221;
 Kishi &#8220;At that time, please make it mild by saying that you have been interviewed in the past (laughs).
 Takano: &#8220;I&#8217;ll do something, so then it&#8217;s a promise (laughs).&#8221;
 For an hour, the two members of &#8220;Kishitakano&#8221; talked about their thoughts and feelings. The duo of classmates has only just begun their rapid progress.
