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.

The Money-Savvy Family: “Magic” EditionRyusei Yokohama, Riho Yoshioka, Tetsuro Degawa

Y!mobile The Bargain Family: Magic Version (30 seconds)

Here is the Y!mobile “The Money-Saving Family” Magic edition commercial.

Having a binding contract when signing up for mobile service is inconvenient.

This ad clearly conveys that inconvenience through magic.

Set to the 1978 global hit song “Dschinghis Khan,” it features a fun dance choreographed by Lucky Ikeda.

The cute choreography makes you want to dance along, doesn’t it? Tetsurō Degawa’s character’s father also adds a nice touch.
