Android One New Model Debut! “Fast-Talking Cheer Squad” VersionTakumi Saitō, Tetsurō Degawa, Genichiro Tenryu

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.

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.

Add some search to your job hunt. “Busy yet bored” edition

Rika Izumi and Natsuko Yokozawa appear / Indeed commercial: “Busy but Bored” version

In Indeed’s commercials, Takumi Saitoh, Rika Izumi, and the comedy duo Chidori are regulars, but this 2018 spot also features Natsuko Yokozawa.

Fitting for a job search engine ad, they all play different professions.

Highlights include Daigo looking sharp in a suit as a businessman and Rika Izumi as a dekotora truck driver—both must-sees.

The banter between Izumi and Yokozawa as shop clerks also adds a great touch.

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.
