Unable to get a job after graduating from high school, he goes in and out of the Namba Kagetsu theatre as an apprentice at Yoshimoto Kogyo. One day, Onishi meets comedy legend Akashiya Sanma (Tamayama Tetsuji) who is at the height of his popularity. Sanma is amused by Onishi and takes care of him. He decides to train this young man with a strong character to be a popular entertainer. After that, Onishi is named Jimmy Onishi by Sanma and goes on to become a successful entertainer with a full-time manager (Kinami Haruka). |
