Noodle-warrior-transforming old dudes, eye-laser-shooting bosses, dancing Frieza grape soda, and so much more await your eyes.
Japanese commercials are infamous the world over for their epic amount of randomness and hilarity, so much so that oftentimes the commercials are better than the TV shows themselves. The only downside to watching them? You have to slog through all of the not-so-interesting commercials to get to the great ones.
But now thanks to the YouTube channel JPCMHD, no more time needs to be wasted! They have compiled the very best of Japan’s commercials from 2015 for all of our convenience.
You can watch the video in its entirety here, or scroll down for highlights:
▼ We start of with Kanna Hashimoto’s commercial of “stupid-cool” tricks that took 600 takes to get right.
▼ And then get right into some fabulous Frieza dancing!
Ooh yeah, that makes me want to buy some grape soda for sure!
▼ This suave trio then demonstrates the correct way to eat Pocky with friends…
▼ …and this little girl shows that she’s already way ahead of the game.
▼ Sleepy on the job? We can’t have that…
▼ EYE LASER BEAMS STRAIGHT TO THE FACE!!!
▼ Ah, a nude-modeling class.
What a great opportunity to learn how to draw the human figure.
▼ Wait… what is this student drawing…?
▼ To be fair, that technically is what they were supposed to draw, right?
▼ And old man sipping on some Cup Noodle, when suddenly…
▼ He transforms into Sailor Ramen!
▼ With his Sacred Shrimp Hairpieces…
▼ And Divine Fork of Justice…
▼ Cold, bland ramen doesn’t stand a chance!
We’ve only scratched the surface here, so if you like what you’ve seen, then check out the rest of JPCMHD’s hilarious Japanese videos on their YouTube channel. And if that’s still not enough to satisfy your insatiable hunger for Japanese commercials, then fear not, we have some more juicy ones ready for you.
