Jungle Pocket (ジャングルポケット, Janguru Poketto) is a Japanese comedy duo consisting of Hirohisa Ōta (太田博久) and Otake (おたけ).
Formerly a trio, Shinji Saitō (斉藤慎二) was removed in October 2024 due to being charged with sexual assault.
[4] Saito has gone on to own one of Jungle Pocket's last crops, a filly that he named Omataseshimashita, as well as making cameo appearances in the anime adaptation of Umamusume, which feature an anthropomorphized version of the horse.
They reached the semi-finals for King of Conte 6 years in a row until 2015, when they made it to the finals for the first time.
Yoshimoto Kogyo announced on October 7, 2024, that Saito would be dismissed from his job, after being found out that he was arrested for having committed sexual assault in July against a 20-year old woman in a bus at a filming location in Tokyo.
