Meet Mitsuaki Tsuyuki, the 72-year-old artist turning pinky-sized puppets into cultural mic drops! 👐 For a decade, this Japanese craftsman has crafted fingertip masterpieces resembling celebs like Takeshi Kitano and Elvis Presley, using them to roast societal norms with laugh-out-loud satire. 😂
Imagine: tipsy salarymen arguing about overtime culture, or sassy grandmas clapping back at aging stereotypes—all acted out by puppets smaller than your AirPod! 🎧 Tsuyuki’s shows blend slapstick humor with sharp takes on Japan’s aging population and work-life imbalance, proving you don’t need a big stage to spark big conversations. 🗣️
\"I want people to laugh first, then think,\" says Tsuyuki, whose DIY theater has gone viral locally. His secret? Observing everyday struggles from subway commutes to izakaya pubs. 🍶 Next time you scroll through TikTok, imagine these tiny performers serving truth—one finger flick at a time! ✨
