Funny commercials [2022] (1–10)
AC JAPAN An Age of Intolerance ~ What Are Public Manners in Modern Society? ‘Tolerance Rap’ EditionRyofu Karma, Sachi Odawara, Ran
Behind an elderly woman who’s flustered because she can’t pay smoothly at the register, a tough-looking man is standing in line.
You’d expect him to criticize her, but instead he speaks to her in a gentle rap, telling her there’s no need to hurry.
The grandmother unexpectedly replies in rap as well, and that kindness spreads to those around them—portraying a tolerant world.
It’s a commercial that sends a message to a society often overflowing with complaints and dissatisfaction, and the sight of everyone belting it out in the convenience store is pretty amusing.
JRA Predictions (Betting) People: ‘The Woman Who Hums’ Edition
The idea is that the scenes captured in famous paintings from around the world might actually depict people predicting horse races.
For example, Johannes Vermeer’s painting The Milkmaid is reimagined as a scene where she is humming her horse race predictions, and the title has been changed to The Humming Woman.
Set to the melody of a fanfare, she sings her own forecasts, and as her enthusiasm grows, her voice gets louder.
A unique touch is that she becomes so absorbed in her predictions that the milk she’s pouring overflows.
Uber Eats “Makeup Remover” Edition
It’s a commercial that conveys the convenience of Uber Eats delivering not only food but also everyday items.
Just as she’s about to remove her makeup, she realizes she’s run out of remover.
She’s stuck in a situation where she can’t go outside like this—a relatable lament for many.
The key highlights are her raw cry and pained expression that directly express her inner frustration, and the chihuahua that, for some reason, howls in response, mirroring her emotions.
ecforce “Man Pouring Milk” versionNakayama Kinnikun
The commercial “The Man Pouring Milk” for ecforce, an all-in-one e-commerce platform for businesses, is a strikingly funny ad.
It features the comedian Kinnikun Nakayama, and it parodies Johannes Vermeer’s famous painting “The Milkmaid.” You can’t help but laugh at the sight of Kinnikun Nakayama dressed as the woman from the painting.
The punchline—“No matter how much you pour, if there’s a hole, it’s all ruined.
The same goes for e-commerce sites”—is hilarious too!
Suntory CRAFT BOSS Milky Presso “New-New Morning: Part 1 (New-New Language)”Hana Sugisaki, Koji Yakusho, Ryunosuke Kamiki
From the performers’ tone, the atmosphere of the music used, and the gentle color palette of the entire commercial, you can really sense the product’s smoothness and creaminess.
You might be tempted to think it’s a foreign language because of the soft-sounding speech and the subtitles, but if you listen closely, it’s actually a unique concept where they’re simply speaking Japanese—in a gentle tone with some dialect—closely matching the subtitles.
The commercial unfolds with a gentle, calm vibe, yet when you look closely at the story and the dialogue, there are parts that don’t quite make sense—and that, too, may be part of what draws you into the ad.
Townwork ‘Suspension Bridge’ EpisodeTakuya Kimura, Mana Ashida
The Townwork commercial “Suspension Bridge” featuring Takuya Kimura and Mana Ashida in zombie makeup.
It’s a snapshot while they’re getting ready to shoot a zombie movie, with Kimura and Ashida talking about Ashida’s friend.
When Ashida says, “Once again, just my bad luck,” Kimura mishears it as “Townwork?” and from there things take a slightly odd turn.
When Ashida restates her story, this time she clearly says “Townwork,” and although Kimura calls her out on it, she stays unfazed—leaving Kimura confused by the word “Townwork.” The ad is filled with comedic banter and makes you really curious about the movie they’re filming.
Takemoto Piano Co., Ltd. “Takemoto Piano” TV commercial, 1997
When it comes to piano commercials, this is the one that comes to mind first for many people! It’s the famous ad from Takemoto Piano Co., known for the catchphrase “Sell me your piano.” This commercial, which has been airing for over 20 years, features Ichirō Zaitsu, who was active as a comedian, actor, and singer.
Along with four dancers, Zaitsu moves energetically—dancing to a rhythmic melody and making big, expressive motions to a slower tune.
Its long run on air, along with Zaitsu’s distinctive way of speaking and the memorable music, have helped it become widely known across generations.
