Hayashiya Sanpei I

was a Japanese Rakugo comedian. His trademark line was "Sō nansu, okusan!" (That's the way it is, madam!). Hayashiya Shōzō IX and Hayashiya Sanpei II are his sons and Yasuha is his daughter. The Pokémon Wobbuffet is an homage to Sanpei. References 1925 births People from Taitō 1980 deaths Rakugoka 20th-century comedians Comedians from Tokyo
