Cream Stew's Ueda (left) and Arita

Cream Stew (くりぃむしちゅー) is a Japanese comedy kombi consisting of two comedians, Shinya Ueda (上田晋也) and Teppei Arita (有田哲平). Originally from Kumamoto, the pair first met in high school when Arita and Ueda caught wind of their common interest in pro wrestling.

As with many Japanese kombi, one of the comedians is referred to as the boke, and the other the tsukkomi. As the boke, Arita is loud and prone to strange comments, while Ueda (sometimes called tempa, see note^[1]) is the more reasonable of the two, often criticizing Arita's remarks while setting up further jokes and often providing Arita with a one man audience (even when nobody else is laughing). Ueda also distinguishes himself from most tsukkomi as the king of unchiku (うんちく), or the ability to lecture on about something that the speaker's audience really has no interest in whatsoever.
