His motto is "Reaction comedy isn't calculated, it's real-gachi (dead serious)." Degawa English: During overseas shoots, he has the amazing ability to communicate with locals using only heart, gestures, and unique vocabulary (e.g., "Sky" for sky, "Mama" for the Statue of Liberty) while completely ignoring grammar. However, because his English is so poor, it often doesn't get across at all. Poor Articulation: He very often stumbles over his words or makes mistakes at critical moments. He is bad at remembering people's names, which makes everyone around him burst into laughter. - Catchphrases When in a pinch, he says "Yabai yo, yabai yo" (It's bad, it's really bad!). - Appearance Hairstyle: A characteristic crew cut (techno-cut style crew cut) that has remained almost unchanged since his debut, with the top flattened. Side Shave: The sides and back are neatly and closely shaved. - Body Type and Facial Features Stocky Build: He is short at 159cm, with a charming, slightly plump build and a protruding belly. Round Face and Double Chin: He has a plump round face, drooping eyes that crinkle when he laughs, and a double chin that is often emphasized during his reactions. Exaggerated Facial Expressions: His expression of rounding his eyes and opening his mouth wide when surprised is his trademark.
