Funny commercials [June 2025] (1–10)
Mobility Technologies Taxi App GO “GO-ing! On a Tiring Day” VersionNEW!Yoh Yoshida
This commercial highlights how the GO taxi app is especially convenient in situations where getting around feels difficult, making everyday life more comfortable.
It shows Yō Yoshida’s family after enjoying a theme park, looking too tired to move easily.
They order a taxi with GO, demonstrating that not only the kids but also the adults can get some rest.
The attempt to keep the children from falling asleep adds a touch of humor to the scene.
Mobility Technologies Taxi App GO “Let’s GO! The Agony of Accounting” EditionNEW!Yutaka Takenouchi, Yō Yoshida
This is a commercial that depicts interactions at a company between Yutaka Takenouchi and Yō Yoshida, conveying the difficulties of taxis and accounting, and promoting how convenient GO is.
It develops from the struggle with a taxi receipt that doesn’t list the destination into a conversation between childhood friends, showing that good rapport alone can’t solve accounting issues.
That’s exactly when GO is useful, introducing features that are helpful for companies, such as enabling centralized management of taxi expenses.
Japan Frito-Lay Mic Popcorn “Caramel” Version / “Hitorijime (All to Myself)” VersionNEW!
These are humorous commercials depicting a boy delighted after buying lots of Mike Popcorn.
In both spots, a boy appears dancing with bags of Mike Popcorn in both hands, and his family, noticing him, starts talking to him.
In the “Caramel” version, his grandfather asks, “Where’s mine?” and the boy reacts begrudgingly; in the “All for Me” version, when someone says, “Lucky you,” he responds while out of breath.
Both have a subtly absurd tone that’ll make you chuckle.

Hoken no Madoguchi “Mr. Ichihara: His Public and Private Sides” EditionNEW!Hayato Ichihara, Sakura Inoue
Hayato Ichihara appears as an employee of Hoken no Madoguchi, promoting the company’s commitment to honest service.
What’s interesting is the creative device used to convey this: as the CM title suggests, two versions of Ichihara—front and back—appear.
While it’s common to think that a person’s public face and private side have different thoughts, the two Ichiharas in this commercial say, “We mostly feel the same,” emphasizing that there’s no two-facedness.
The reversal of expectations makes for an impactful presentation.
The final gag, where he says “The chair is broken” and keeps spinning around, is also funny and memorable.
Lottery Valentine Jumbo “Pretending” EditionNEW!Riho Yoshioka, Yuma Yamoto
This commercial introduces the sales period for the Valentine Jumbo lottery.
From the name, it seems like you can only buy it until February 14, but it actually emphasizes that you can purchase it until March 6.
Focusing on the word “misekakete” (making it look like), Yuma Yamoto cheerfully says, “It may look like I’m sitting, but I’m actually doing an air chair.” In response, Riho Yoshioka shocks everyone by saying, “It may look like I’m standing on the floor, but I’m actually floating 1 millimeter.” The previously upbeat Yamoto regains his composure and, unable to hide his surprise, asks, “Huh? Really?” With its dynamic pacing, it’s a humorous commercial that’s bound to make you laugh.
mineo Quiz Show: Spring mineo Discount / Packet Unlimited Plus / MyPita 30 GB PlanNEW!
This commercial showcases the many appeals of mineo through footage reminiscent of old quiz shows.
It clearly explains, via narration, how mineo offers a variety of plans tailored to users and makes smartphones easier to use.
It’s also fun to see what kind of wrong answers and reactions pop up, and the visuals and speaking style create a retro vibe, making for a comical piece.
Nissin Foods Nissin Donbei “Mornings go Don! Don-do-don!” EditionNEW!Hollywood Zakoshisyoh
This commercial, featuring Hollywood Zakoshisyoh, is for Nissin’s Donbei, and the direction and song probably feel familiar, don’t they? In fact, it’s a parody—or rather a complete recreation—of Fujipan’s “Honshikomi” commercial! Hollywood Zakoshisyoh’s over-the-top performance, which you’d never expect to be recreating Yuki Matsushita from the Honshikomi ads, is guaranteed to make you laugh.
By the way, Fujipan’s official account brought up this ad on X, and among viewers there’s growing anticipation that “Fujipan might parody Nissin’s commercial next.”
