Entertainment Free Man ~Too Good to Be True~Viking

BIGLOBE Mobile CM “Entertainment Free Man ~Too Good to Be True~” 90s 02210820

Comedians Baiking (Viking) star in the “Entame Freeman ~A Sweet Deal~” commercial.

As Kotoge worries that he doesn’t have enough data for the month, Nishimura appears, having become an “Entame Freeman.” He even nicknames the data-starved Kotoge “Kaijin Giga-Tarin” (the Monster ‘Giga-Short’).

With a mischievous, decidedly un-heroic grin, he tells him there’s a sweet deal for when you’re low on data.

Despite saying something helpful, Nishimura’s villain-like delivery persists to the end, setting up Kotoge’s razor-sharp retorts.

The commercial features a mysterious hero who finally asks, “Why don’t you become an Entame Freeman too?”
