Y!mobile Commercial: “Y!mo Academy Fast-Talking Cheer Squad”

This commercial features the hugely popular actor Takumi Saitoh, comedian Tetsuro Degawa, TV personality Nana Suzuki, and former pro wrestler Genichiro Tenryu.

Each of them attempts a tongue twister related to KitKat, but everyone except Takumi Saitoh completely fumbles it.

Genichiro Tenryu, known for his gravelly voice, is especially hard to understand—you can’t make out a thing he’s saying, which makes it pretty funny.

Find your job with a great search. ‘Straw Hat Crew Recruitment: Requirements’ Edition

Live-action 'ONE PIECE'! Takumi Saitoh as Luffy, Rika Izumi as Nami. New 'Indeed' × 'ONE PIECE' collaboration commercial: 'Recruiting the Straw Hat Crew' edition.

It’s a very striking commercial that boldly adapts the hugely popular national anime One Piece into live action! The cast is incredibly star-studded: Takumi Saitoh as Luffy, Rika Izumi as Nami, Daigo from the comedy duo Chidori as Usopp, Hiroyuki Ikeuchi as Zoro, and Yosuke Kubozuka as Sanji—each perfectly matching their anime counterparts—so it became a huge talking point! It’s the kind of commercial that makes you eagerly await announcements about how the sequel will turn out!

Search well for your job hunt. “Chopper Assistant” edition

Indeed New TV Commercial: 'Chopper Assistant' Edition

This is the hugely popular ONE PIECE version of Indeed’s commercial.

Takumi Saitoh plays Luffy, Rika Izumi plays Nami, Daigo from Chidori plays Usopp, Hiroyuki Ikeuchi plays Zoro, and Yosuke Kubozuka plays Sanji—an absolutely stacked cast that makes you go, “What is this? Isn’t this way too luxurious?” It’s unthinkable that the Straw Hat Crew would be job hunting, but the oddly solemn way they talk made me burst out laughing.

And what exactly does the role titled “Chopper Assistant” even do?

Let Search support your job hunt. “Zoro: The One Who Gets Cut” edition

Hiroyuki Ikeuchi as 'Zoro' invites Usopp to train!? Indeed × ONE PIECE commercial series: 'Zoro: The Cut-Down Role' edition

This is a collaboration commercial between the hugely popular comic One Piece and Indeed, released in 2019.

In addition to Takumi Saitoh, Rika Izumi, and Daigo of Chidori, who appear throughout the series, Hiroyuki Ikeuchi plays Zoro and Yosuke Kubozuka plays Sanji—perfect casting, really.

The scene near the end where Chopper lets out a deep “Bumoo!” is a must-see.

Search smarter for your job hunt. “Customer Service” edition

Rika Izumi and Natsuko Yokozawa Appear / Indeed Commercial “Customer Service” Version

This is a commercial for the search engine Indeed featuring Takumi Saito and Rika Izumi, along with Daigo from the comedy duo Chidori and Natsuko Yokozawa.

Saito and Daigo go from being sharply dressed businessmen to working at a hair salon.

Izumi and Yokozawa, who start out as tough-looking delinquent-style “big sisters,” boldly switch to becoming apparel staff.

The four of them sing in a style reminiscent of “If You’re Happy and You Know It,” and their voices—unlike professional singers—have a certain unpolished charm that feels relatable.

The tune sticks in your head, so I think it’ll pop up when you’re in the mood to look for a job.

In that sense, this idea is brilliant.

Search smart for your job hunt. “Which Monk?” edition

Takumi Saito, Daigo from Chidori appear / “Indeed” commercial, “What kind of monk?” version

In Indeed’s commercial where Takumi Saito and Rika Izumi transform into people from various professions, this version adds Daigo from Chidori and Natsuko Yokozawa, doubling both the glamor and the laughs.

Saito’s permed hair with a suit is that handsome businessman look women probably love, while Daigo sports a rare side-parted style.

Izumi and Yokozawa’s flashy yet somehow cute yankee outfits with a decorated truck, plus their shop-clerk looks, are fun to watch too.

The banter among the four is downright addictive!
