Youtube: Crazy Japanese Commercials

Thursday, 2. April 2009, 22:57:27

There's just something about Japan that grants commercials a wackiness that most Western advertisements just don't take advantage of.

Television commercials, or CMs are a big deal in Japan; a good CM can really boost your company's popularity. Add this to a wacky catchphrase and you have yourself a seller.

I intend to collect a few of the more interesting or wacky commercials I come across on YouTube here, it will be quite long, so please click the link just below to see the videos.

Please tell me if any of the embedded videos are removed or don't work via the comments section. And, as always, if you have an interesting one to add, drop me a comment and I'll add it with credit.

Dominoes eat your heart out.


Great commercial with a twist.


Wow, if this next one wasn't scripted, I am shocked. It's for 'Sex machineguns," a band.


More to come as I find them.
