Masami Hisamoto

Masami Hisamoto (久本雅美, Hisamoto Masami), (July 9, 1958 – ) is a Japanese comedian,[1] actress, singer and tarento from Higashisumiyoshi Ward (now Hirano Ward), Osaka, Osaka Prefecture, belonging to the Wahaha talent agency. She is also, as of 2007, the head of the fine arts department of Soka Gakkai which she became an adherent on September 28, 1984. She often promotes the conservative Soka Gakkai-backed political party Komeito as a public speaker. She is unmarried.

She often works with her younger sister, Tomoko Hisamoto (久本朋子, Hisamoto Tomoko).

She has become something of an internet meme on video sharing websites, where users create MAD Movies out of videos of her television appearances and promotional videos for Soka Gakkai. However, since 2014, on Nico Nico Douga and YouTube, videos get removed by Shinano Art (sometimes called "Shiano Art" or "Shinano Kikaku").
