[Recruit Commercials] Popular and Historical Ads Compilation [2026] (71–80)

“What are you downloading?!” editionHitoshi Matsumoto, Shuhei Nomura

Shuhei Nomura plays a parent-child role with Hitoshi Matsumoto in a new commercial, saying he struggled to hold back laughter during the ad-libbed acting.

This is the Townwork commercial titled “What are you downloading?,” featuring Hitoshi Matsumoto and Shuhei Nomura as a father and son.

The father barges into his son’s room and, without hearing him out, demands to know what he’s downloading on his smartphone.

He’s only downloading the Townwork app, but for some reason it’s all staged dramatically.

The son’s line, “Everyone’s doing it,” is a classic thing kids say, and then the father, in a kind of self-delivering punchline, admits, “I’m doing it too,” leaving you not knowing what’s going on—that’s the vibe of the commercial.

“Belting Out a Motivational Song” VersionHitoshi Matsumoto, Shotaro Mamiya

Shotaro Mamiya gives his first singing performance in a commercial but rates himself only 40 points; new Townwork “Part-time Job God” series CM by Hitoshi Matsumoto: “Motivational Song” version & making-of

The Townwork commercial “The Motivational Song: Passionate Performance,” which began airing in September 2018.

It’s the second installment in the “God of Part-Time Jobs” series starring Hitoshi Matsumoto.

In the ad, he gives motivation to Shotaro Mamiya, who plays a college student unenthusiastic about job hunting.

With a sudden burst into song, Mamiya’s energy rises and he belts it out, while Matsumoto’s deadpan reaction makes it a comical spot that’s hard not to laugh at.

“Part-time False God: Fake Sound”Hitoshi Matsumoto, Shotaro Mamiya, JP

Hitoshi Matsumoto impersonator JP appears as a “fake god”; Shotaro Mamiya says, “If it were just the voice, I wouldn’t know.” Townwork’s new part-time-job God commercials: ‘Fake Part-Time Job God: Oishii’ and ‘Fake Part-Time Job God: Fake Sound’

This video is a Townwork commercial released in February 2019.

In addition to the familiar Hitoshi Matsumoto and Shotaro Mamiya, JP—well-known for his impressions of Hitoshi Matsumoto—also appears.

JP plays the role of the “fake deity,” delivering his Matsumoto impersonation.

Even the props in the commercial show a dedication to fakes: for example, it uses “supplements” instead of an app, and “bait” instead of a part-time job, revealing playful counterfeit details throughout.

“Friend’s Part-Time Job God: Waiwai”Hitoshi Matsumoto, Shotaro Mamiya, Ruriko Kojima

Hitoshi Matsumoto nuzzles Koji Ruri’s cheek!? Appears as the new “Part-Time Job God.” Townwork’s new CM “Friend’s God” version & making-of

The Townwork commercial made headlines for featuring Hitoshi Matsumoto as the “Part-time Job God.” Whenever Shotaro Mamiya looks for a part-time job, the Job God inevitably appears.

This time, he’s searching with a friend—but while the Job God shows up as an older man for him, a beautiful woman, Ruriko Kojima, appears as the god for his friend.

Even the older-man Job God is taken aback.

He clings to the friend and the beautiful goddess, sticks close while listening to explanations, and tries every trick to stay attached.

The way everyone ends up packed together makes it a chuckle-worthy commercial.

“Friend’s Part-Time Job God – Best Buddies” VersionHitoshi Matsumoto, Shotaro Mamiya, Ruriko Kojima

Together with Hitoshi Matsumoto, Ruriko Kojima also becomes the God of Part-Time Jobs! Three versions of the new Townwork commercial unveiled at once

Ruriko Kojima has newly joined the “Part-Time Job God” series in the “Best Friends” edition.

Shotaro Mamiya, who is whining, saying “I want that one,” becomes the talk of the town when Hitoshi Matsumoto gives him an ad‑lib kiss, making him momentarily go deadpan and blush.

And Ruriko Kojima’s cute character fits this commercial perfectly, making you want to watch it again!

“Friend’s Part-Time Job God: Tearful” VersionHitoshi Matsumoto, Shotaro Mamiya, Ruriko Kojima

Together with Hitoshi Matsumoto, Ruriko Kojima also becomes the God of Part-Time Jobs! Three versions of the new Townwork commercial unveiled at once

In the Townwork commercial released in December 2018, along with the familiar faces Hitoshi Matsumoto and Shotaro Mamiya, Ruriko Kojima—affectionately known as “Kojiruri”—also appears.

Playing the second “part-time job god,” Ruriko Kojima explains how to use Townwork.

The commercial ends with a punchline where Hitoshi Matsumoto bursts into tears after being snubbed by Shotaro Mamiya, a gag that stays funny no matter how many times you watch it.

“The Pushy Girlfriend: Hilarious” EditionHitoshi Matsumoto, Shotaro Mamiya, Maika Yamamoto

Maika Yamamoto comes on strong and leaves “Part-time Job God” Hitoshi Matsumoto flustered — Townwork’s new commercial “The Pushy Girlfriend,” Laugh-Out-Loud/Love-It edition

This is the version featuring Maika Yamamoto, who’s currently popular for being a character that bluntly says whatever she thinks.

The setup takes full advantage of her image.

It’s really funny how the god played by Hitoshi Matsumoto can’t keep up with her pushy energy and his enthusiasm gradually drops.

The role can be a bit overbearing, but her cute smile and completely guileless remarks evoke today’s young women, drawing even more laughs from viewers.

It’s a commercial that makes you think, “Even Matsumoto can’t win against a girl this young…”
