Hey!! Vsauce! Nest head here!
back with another episode of 'Jacksepticeye's Funniest Home Videos'!
This time, my little elves have been all over the world
Before, they went all over the internet to try and find the funniest home videos
that we could possibly laugh to, but this time they went all the way to Japan!
That's right! Konnichi wa! (that's "hello" in Japanese)
*laugh*
*chuckling* Anyway, today we're gonna be looking at WEIRD Japanese commercials,
because, let's face it, Japanese commercials are...
the best commercials that the world has to offer
all the time! They're amazing! I've s- I've- well, I have some compilations here that I am gonna look through
that I think are gonna be good.
Ahmm... This was suggested by somebody to try and react to some of these because...
they get a little crazy, but I've probably seen some of them,
just not all of them,
but I hope they make us laugh. Okay.
Weird, funny and cool Japanese commercials
*commercial's background music* (the goalkeeper could not defend the goal, so the dog "Punch" will try to cheer her up)
Jingle: "Consomme! Consomme! New consomme punch!" (it's a potato chip flavor)
Jingle: "It's not a fist punch - consomme punch" (the chips are consomme soup flavored, which carry a bit more bite ("punch") than the lightly salted chips)
Jack: Wh-what? Wha-? Jingle: "You'll feel its tastiness - consomme punch"
Jingle: "Consomme! Consomme! New consomme punch!"
Jack: What're- What are you teaching the kids??
Jingle: "Consomme, consomme, consomme punch!"
Jingle:"Cheer up with a punch - consomme punch!"
Jack: Okay (x4)
You know what? I thought I was ready, I thought: 'Oh, they're gonna be weird but...'
'...nothing can be that weird, it's not gonna be that crazy that's gonna make me speechless.'
First video... *chuckles*
Hoooly crap! Okay, I need to reconvene in my head.
I need to back off, jack off and regroup,
and come back to this...
like, with a better mentality, 'cause I'm not ready.
Okay, in through the nose...
*INTENSE INHALE*
...out through the mouth
*excelent exhale*
Okay, I'm ready. Okay, lay it on me, buttercup.
Operator: "We're now connected live"
Jack: "OH YESS!" (the dog is "Otōsan", the father in the "Shirato Family" ("White Family") commercial series - suspension of disbelief is required from now on)
Kōjirō (son): "So? How is it out there?"
Otōsan (father): "I'm like a fish out of water" (or literally, "floating").
Masako (mom): "But you were already a fish out of water in our family" (referring to him being a dog)
Jack: "Oh, I love this! I want dogs to be able to talk!" Otōsan (father): "Huh? What was that?" Masako (mom): "Oh, nothing"
Kōjirō (son): "You're good at dog paddling!"
Otōsan: "Shut up!"
Masako & Kōjirō: *chuckles*
Otōsan: What happened to Aya? (Aya is his daughter)
Jack: *imitating Otōsan* "Aya wa dō shita?" Masako: "Now, it looks like she's busy at work with the new Amazing Smartphone campaign"
Aya (daughter): "This is the Amazing Smartphone campaign. 'AmaSma' (SugoSuma), for short" Jack: "Wha-? "
Otōsan: "Ayaaaaaa!" *yelling*
Jack: *laughter* Aya: "Be silent for a moment!" (Otōsan is interrupting her work)
Otōsan: I'm sorry...
Jack: "Wait, what was that for?"
What was I just sold?
I mean, I love it. I- I wanna buy whatever it is, just tell- I- I need to know what that was
I don't know. It was just a talking dog in space, and then it was able to talk down to the lady and they were 'WHAT'
*hypnotic chant-jingle*
Jack: "I'm into this one. This one's incredible. 'Galbo twist' "
*hypnotic chant-jingle continues*
Lady: "I'll show you how crunchy Galbo Twist is" (Galbo is a line of chocolate snacks)
Jack: "Yes, I agree."
*hypnotic chant-jingle restarts* Jack: *laughter*
Jack:"b s?" Announcer: "The reason why twisted Galbo is tasty - new Galbo Twist"
Jack: "Garubo twisto."
*chuckle* I want some Galbo twists,
they look delicious. They look like umm... 'Takis fuego'
fuegoooo (that's "fire" in Spanish)
I want some now. God, I'm hungry.
Ugh, don't record- I- I fail to realize that most Japanese commercials are all about food,
and I should not record these things while I'm hungry.
*sad uncomfortable groan*
(CRONCH)
Eugh!
*sings Japanese commercial song*
Lady: "Doing a news coverage of a hot spring is the best!" Guy: "Yeah...Ah!"
Jack: "STRONG ZERO!" Lady: "Strong grapefruit!" (Strong zero is a brand of sweet alcoholic beverages)
Guy: "There's no way I'll lose! I can do it too: strong..."
Lady: "Wait!" Guy: "Yes?" Lady: "At what time do we have to take the bullet train tomorrow?"
Guy: "Tomorrow? Tomorrow...Tomorrow..."
Jack: "Wha- Why did it work on him and not her?" Lady: "Strong grapefruit!"
Announcer: "196 Strong Zero" (they produce the beverage by freezing an entire fruit in liquid nitrogen at -196˚ C - locking in its flavor - and soaking it in alcohol)
Jack: "Wait- what- no, hold on." Lady: "Ah..."
Jack: "Stop- wait- what- Stop!"
*chuckle* I didn't even have a chance to figure out what the fuck was going on
*while chuckling* Okay
*while chuckling* Jesus Christ!
Okay, she drank it, sprayed water all over him.
That's... hot
Then he drank it, nothing happened, got cockblocked, and- I- you know what?
Let's move on
We don't need to understand what's going on
It's 'Jacksepticeye's funniest home videos', not 'Jacksepticeye's what the hell was that?'
(I mean, at this point, it kinda is tho)
That's a great series idea... WRITE IT DOWN!
Elderly man: "Bruce, tofu is good for your body!"
Young man: "It's low in calories and also low in price" (that's also what's written on the cue card)
Jack: "Why is Bruce Willis in someone's-" Bruce: "Low in price?"
Bruce: "Daihatsu Mira e:S!" (it's an eco-friendly car)
Elderly man: "Well remembered, Bruce!"
Jack: "What?!"
Young man: "It runs 30 kilometers per liter" (the cue card also says "moreover, it's cheap")
Jack: "BRUCE WILLIS SPEAKS JAPANESE!"
I- no, I nee- I need more of that in my life.
Go back, I wanna hear Bruce Willis speak in Japanese again.
Young man: "It's low in calories and also low in price"
Bruce: "Low in price?"
Bruce: *yelling* "Daihatsu Mira e:S!" (the "e:S" kinda sounded like "ISH")
Elderly man: "Well remember-..."
Jack: *yelling* "Daihatsu Mira ISH!"
and he's just beating on his head. This is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me.
Elderly man: "-ed, Bruce!"
Young man: "It runs 30 kilometers per liter"
Jack: *laughter*
Oh, Bruce...
I hope you got paid well for that *laughter*
That is so out of character for him
He is normally, like, stone-faced and doesn't give a shit about anything anymore.
ISHH!
Jack: "YES!" Jingle: "When it comes to (literally, "if you're speaking of") bananas, (leave it to) Dole man" (Dole is a food company)
Jack: "YES! *claps* I love these ones, the banana ones". Jingle: "This might be pushy, but I've decided that"
Jingle: "I want to cheer up you and her"
Jingle: "(So I make) bananas sprout"
Dole (banana) man: "Ha ha ha ha!"
Jingle:"I am Dole man!" *laughter*
*Banana is Dole*
Jack: It's incredible! It's the world's greatest piece of art
that has ever been created. There's more of them. There's more of them; we should watch another one
Jack: There he is Jingle:"Dole man is a business guy"
Jack: "He's a working man, he's a people's man" Jingle: "Office love is also waiting its turn <3"
Jack: "He... is banana man" Jingle: "Even big projects"
Jingle: "Turn into something else with (his) banana power"
Jack: *chuckles*
Jingle: "Good job, Dole man!" (it says "conclusion (completion) of negotiations" on the back)
*Everyone's banana - Dole*
I love it! It's just such wholesome content! Thank you, banana man! You saved our business!
Man: "Oh, I took it off!"
Man: "Eh?" Cheerleaders: "S! U! Ultra multi-purpose!" (it's a superglue)
Jack: "What am i buying?" Man: "What? Don't do it!"
Jack: "S! U!" Cheerleaders: "S! U! Ultra multi-purpose!"
Man: "Ahhhhhh!" Jack: "Toothpaste!"
Jack: "Are we buying toothpaste? We are!" Man: "Is this it?" Announcer: "Glue is..." Cheerleaders: "...Bond! Ultra multi-purpose SU!"
Jack: I still don't know: is that superglue or toothpaste? That's a very big
misunderstanding because if I brush my teeth with superglue then...well actually
I'll shut up like everybody wants me to, so that would probably be good. Maybe I should buy
some of that and brush it on my teeth
*through teeth* and then I'll talk like this forever
*chuckles*
I already love this *chuckling*
Do you ever find yourself half stuck in a wall trying to get to Hogwarts but the
train leaves before you can get through the wall? Me too.
Oh, what are you selling? Please be selling... Is this, like, an ad for condoms? *Escape enthusiasts, unite*
Announcer: "The odds of escaping successfully are 1 in a hundred thousand"
Announcer: "Despair fortress" *escape labyrinth attraction* (it's a real escape game attraction from the Fuji-Q Highland amusement park)
Jack: What?
Was that for, like, an escape room or prison or something?
I'd still like to think it's for condoms; it's like 'it almost got through, but it didn't, you're not pregnant'
'calm down, okay, I know'
'Y- You are not the father... mother... person...'
Jack: "GameBoy!"
Lady: "Hey, hey, don't you want a match against my Pocket Monsters?"
(this is the first Japanese Pokémon commercial, for Pokémon Red and Green)
Jack: "Pokémon monster?" Elderly men: "Who are you?"
Jack: "Pocket monster?" Lady: *flamboyantly* "Ooooh!"
*Psyduck cry*
Announcer: "There are 150 kinds of monsters in total"
Jack: "Wh- What?" Announcer: "You can trade monsters with each other with the Game Link Cable"
Announcer: "If you play it on the Super Game Boy, (you'll see) beautiful colors"
Jack: Is this how they sold Pokémon back in the day? This is terrible!
Announcer: "It's the role-playing (game) that will make you more friends" (it says "Pokémon friends" in the middle)
Announcer: "Pocket monsters"
Jack: That was not good! *laughs*
She said something about pokémon and then they were like, 'No, get out of here you fuckin' weirdo'
And then she was like, 'ooooh!'
I do not want to play pokémon more after seeing that commercial
That was a bad commercial
Made me laugh though, so I guess it works
Announcer: "Graphite (love) confession" (it says "like/love" on the paper sheet)
Girl: "I'm sorry" Announcer: "Graphite goodbye"
Announcer: "Graphite rain of sadness"
Announcer: "Graphite thermometer" Guy: *sneezes* (he caught a cold from being in the "rain")
Announcer: "Graphite glasses" Girl: "Are you all right?"
Jack: *laughing* Announcer: "Graphite falling in love/ Graphite (love) confession number 2"
Jack: "Those fucking glasses!" Announcer: "Graphite 'hitting the target' "
Announcer: "Graphite duet"
Jack: "Everything's made out of pencil lead!" Announcer: "Graphite proposal"
Announcer: "Graphite paternal opposition"
Jack: "or... 'graphito' " Announcer: "Graphite 'this is insignificant, but...' " (it's a default polite phrase when giving a present to someone)
Announcer: "Graphite 'okay' " (giving them his blessing)
Announcer: "Graphite cake cutting ceremony"
Jack: "Are they really using graphite to cut their cake?"
Announcer: "By the way, graphite is mechanical pencil lead" (punchline: they've been used graphite for everything, except for its intended use as mechanical pencil lead).
Jack: What the fuck? That is the best way I've ever seen someone try to sell me graphite.
Actually, it's the only way anyone has ever tried to sell me graphite.
I want a big stockpile of graphite from now on. If you meet me at a convention, if you meet me
on tour, if you meet me anywhere, just give me graphite. Actually, no, don't
because people will take that seriously, people...people have sent me weirder
things uhh, by me saying a joke so don't send me that shit! I just think
that that's hilarious. Wait, why did he have graphite under his arm?
Announcer: "Graphite cheerleader" Jack: "Their pom-poms are just pieces of pencil lead!"
Announcer: "Graphite falling in love"
Jack: "I'm surprised his hair isn't pencil lead" Announcer: "Graphite (love) confession" (it says "like/love" on the paper sheet)
Girl: "I'm sorry" Announcer: "Graphite goodbye"
Announcer: "Graphite rain of sadness"
Jack: "I don't know what that meant"
Jack: "What was written on that? She just said 'gomen nasai' and then ran away, so obviously"
Jack: "she didn't take the proposal."
Announcer: "Graphite thermometer" Guy: *sneezes*
Girl: "Are you all-"
Jack: Why? Why is it in his arm?
Is he using it? Is he trying to break it?
*laughs* The fucking glasses!
Oh, Japan, you're the best
Announcer: "Graphite proposal"
Announcer: "Graphite paternal opposition" Jack: Ahhh, 'graphito proposal'.
So he tried to get...he tried to ask the other girl out with
graphite and she said 'no', broke his little pencil heart; his heart's in the
shape of graphite...and then he moved on, and then he found someone with graphite
glasses and asked her out, and they lived 'graphite' ever after
Announcer: "By the way, graphite is mechanical pencil lead" (punchline: they've been used graphite for everything, except for its intended use as mechanical pencil lead).
Jack: I wanna know what that part means
Announcer: "By the way, graphite is mechanical pencil lead" (punchline: they've been used graphite for everything, except for its intended use as mechanical pencil lead).
Jack: 'cuz everything was great, everything was wonderful, and then they started taking
graphite, and then she said something about it being like 'by the way, graphite's shit'
'and it won't actually do any of the things you just said' and then they were like
'NANI?!'
*Turning tastiness into smiles - Kirin* (the song "Hurly Burly" starts playing) Lyrics: "Hurly Burly Party"

Announcer: "The world bursts dazzlingly" (it says "During pregnancy - Let's stop drinking during lactation" on the bottom left)
Jack: "This is- this is bad." Announcer: "Kirin freezing (alcohol)" ("Kirin freezing" - Hyouketsu - is vodka diluted with fruit flavored carbonated water)
Jack: That was terrible; that's not a weird Japanese commercial
It's not cool, funny or weird. It's just...regular.
That's what you'd see here.

looks out of time... This is a recipe for greatness
Samurai: "On the smartphone! You can watch movies on the smartphone!"
Jack: He's not saying anything. None of them are saying anything
Jack: *laughter* *you can watch movies on the smartphone*
Jack: That's my move. That's how- that's how I get the ladies. You know, walking down a subway I'm like,
'Do you like my horse? Look at my muscle! Look at it! Look, watch!' and then they're like
'AAAH!! It's too much!!!!'
Announcer: "docomo - d market - video store" (docomo is a mobile phone operator company) Jack: "It's so creepy!"

Lady: "Shit! I'm low on charcoal!"
Jack: "Oh no, I'm low on graphite *chuckle* I have to go into the forest"
Lady: *panting* "Where are you?!"
Jack: "Don't you hate it when you run out of graphite in your fridge, and you got to run into the forest"
Jack: "with it on your back, like Indiana Jones or Mr. Fredricksen from UP."
Jack: "Yeah, that's a tough life"
Charcoal: "I'm here!" Jack: "but then you reach the Forbidden Forest"
Charcoal: "If you're-" Jack: "and you see graphite man in his"
