Japanese game shows are known for their freakish game shows, which often put contestants in incredibly embarrassing and sometimes even totally harsh scenarios.

Candy or Not Candy

Celebrity contestants are challenged to find out if what they’re putting in their mouth is candy or the everyday object.

Sokkuri is the art form that is used to create chocolate that looks like anything from a shoe to a doorknob. However, if it's not the chocolate the contestants will end up potentially biting into these inanimate objects. Weird, isn't it?



DERO DERO

Okay, this sounds simple when we say that Contestants on this game show are forced to solve puzzles and answer questions. However, the show makes sure the pressure is at an all-time extreme by having the contestants in a stressful state.

TORE!

In this game, if you get a wrong answer you get a very strange punishment.

The contestant has to answer seven questions before they are completely mummified. But it doesn't stop when the contestants wrapped in a tightly wound cloth from their head to toe, they also get placed in a tomb.



Human Tetris

Contestants stand on a platform while a series of walls come rapidly towards them. The only way to make it through the wall is to move one’s body to get through the challenging cutouts.

The Bum game

This strange game is about girls placing their bottoms in a mold that hides their identities from the contestants. The players try and figure out which rear end belongs to each girl judging only the two holes revealing their bums.



AKBingo!

This game starts out as a seemingly harmless game of dodgeball that ends up with some seriously disturbing consequences for those who get hit.

The punishment for being hit by one of the balls is chosen by a comedy duo. This one punishment had two girls having to blow a large insect in a tube. The loser would end up with the bug in her mouth.
