Funny Commercials [June 2025] (171–180)
UQ mobile’s Superstar Duo: “Scoop” / “In the Taxi” / “Autograph” / “That Matter” / “For Tomorrow’s Article” / “At a Certain TV Station” / “Secret Getaway”
This is a series that depicts the daily lives of Gachapin and Mukku as stars, while also highlighting the various appeals of UQ.
It unfolds like a weekly magazine article that segues into star anecdotes, layering the stars’ worries with introductions to UQ’s features and perks.
Although they are thoroughly disguised with sunglasses and masks, the comedic twist is that their figures give them away.
The pair’s confident narration is striking, and it’s amusing that the introductions of features and perks don’t quite come across clearly.
Iris Ohyama Skimax “Sarikichi” Version / “Parking Lot” Version
“With land prices soaring, leaving gaps unused is an economic loss.” That’s the premise of this commercial, which explores how to make use of the space between a cupboard and a refrigerator.
Despite opening with such a stiff line, the next scene suddenly shifts to charming ideas: a child places a toy monkey there and even turns it into a parking lot for a toy car.
None of those ideas make the cut, though, and in the end they put a slim freezer called “Sukimax” in the gap.
It’s a witty ad with great pacing that keeps you watching right to the end!
Recruit Agent: Whispering Couple – “Let the Feelings Reach” / “Happy Lunchtime” / “A Message Beyond the Noren”Issey Takahashi, Yuya Yagira
This is a commercial depicting people considering a job change appearing around Issey Takahashi and Yuya Yagira, who work at Recruit Agent.
While they talk about changing jobs, Recruit Agent gets repeatedly promoted right next to them, making the name “Recruit Agent” really stick in your mind.
There are plenty of humorous touches, so be sure to check out each of the commercials.
Mars Japan Limited SNICKERS “Cheering” VersionYasutaro Matsuki
In this commercial depicting a trio of men watching a soccer match, the premise is that one of them “turns into Yasutaro Matsuki when he gets hungry.” The man who transforms into Matsuki is the junior member of the group, and he watches the game while saying, “Sor-ry! Sor-ry!” His behavior evokes Matsuki’s signature commentary style—often called “Matsuki-isms”—and you can see the senior members getting a bit fed up as the junior’s excitement keeps ramping up.
It’s a longer spot running over two minutes, so it’s definitely worth watching!
Mars Japan Limited SNICKERS “Sharp-Tongued Idol” VersionAsuka Saito
In this commercial, they use an unexpected setup: “Asuka Saito turns sharp-tongued when she’s hungry.” While three guys are gaming and boasting, “We’re having so much fun gaming we don’t even need girlfriends!”, Saito cuts in with a deadpan, “You guys have never had girlfriends, have you?” Hearing that, their hyped-up mood instantly deflates, and the guys shrink back.
Saito tries to press the attack, but the three cut her off to protect themselves.
The banter between the guys and Saito is funny, of course, and the premise of Saito being brutally sharp-tongued is also hilarious and sure to get laughs.

Cygames Uma Musume Pretty Derby “Enrich the Island” VersionYutaka Take, Christophe Lemaire
This commercial depicts Christophe Lemaire living a survival life on a remote island and eventually making his way to a town located on the island.
It’s an ad introducing Cygames’ game Uma Musume Pretty Derby’s new training scenario, “Welcome to the Uninhabited Island – DESIGN YOUR ISLAND -.” In the heart of the town—so grand you’d never expect it to be on an island—stands a gigantic, golden Yutaka Take.
The humorous direction, unexpected given the star-studded cast, makes this a commercial that’s sure to bring a smile.
AEON Card AEON Pay “Dawn” Version / “The Junior Who Believes” Version / “The Junior Who Still Believes” VersionTakayuki Yamada, Ryusei Yokohama
This is a commercial introducing the renewed AEON Pay.
The “Dawn” version highlights money-saving campaigns and convenience, while the “Trusting Junior” and “Still Trusting Junior” versions are styled like a quiz show, humorously depicting exchanges between Takayuki Yamada and Ryusei Yokohama.
It mixes humor with a clear presentation of the service’s features.
