Ameagari Kesshitai (雨上がり決死隊?), also known simply as Ameagari, is a Japanese comedy duo (kombi) consisting of Hiroyuki Miyasako (宮迫 博之) and Tōru Hotohara (蛍原 徹). They are from Osaka and, like most other comedians from the Kansai region, are employed by Yoshimoto Kogyo.
Their kombi name translates to Post-Rain Suicide Squad. Their namesake was a concert tour by RC Succession (a favorite rock band of theirs) that occurred while they were both students at Yoshimoto Kogyo: New Star Creation. It was based on one of their singles, "Ameagari no Yozora ni" ("To the Post-Rain Nightsky").
They are friends with Downtown and are common guests on their show, Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!!, usually when extra members are needed for a game. Both kombi are regulars on LINCOLN.
