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!

Let search be with your job hunt. “Part-time job search” edition

Takumi Saitoh starring – Job Hunting Edition / “Indeed” CM 2

This is a popular Indeed series in which Takumi Saitoh and Rika Izumi play people working in various occupations.

In this commercial, in addition to an apron like a café staff uniform and an amusement park mascot costume, they also appear as a pompadour-wearing carpenter and in outfits reminiscent of traditional ethnic clothing.

These two truly look good in anything they wear.

The commercial showcases the impressive versatility of the pair, who also thrive as models.

Let the hunt begin for your next job. ‘Sauvage’ edition

Takumi Saito and Daigo (of the comedy duo Chidori) appear / Indeed commercial: “Daigo with a perm?!” edition

The “Indeed” commercial is fun because you get to see sides of Takumi Saitoh and Rika Izumi you’ve never seen before.

There are several versions, but the charm of this one might be the scene where Takumi Saitoh plays a hair salon employee and Daigo from Chidori is the customer.

What is the “impossible hairstyle” that the buzz-cut Daigo requests?! He asks completely seriously, but how on earth would you do it? And just imagining the finished hairstyle makes you laugh.

It’s a commercial that makes you think, “People can become anything, for sure!” (lol)

Search aplenty for your job hunt. “That suits you” edition

Rika Izumi and Natsuko Yokozawa Appear / Indeed Commercial “That Suits You” Version

This is a commercial for Indeed, which boasts a large global share as a search engine.

Takumi Saitoh, Rika Izumi, Daigo from the comedy duo Chidori, and Natsuko Yokozawa appear, transforming into various professions such as office worker, hairdresser, delinquent, and apparel shop clerk.

In addition to their outfits, if you look closely, the props and sets in each scene are meticulously crafted, making you go “Oh!” every time you watch.

The decorated truck (dekotora) is especially a must-see.
