You know how most anime have a little intermission at around the 10 minute mark?

They go to commercials.....I assume the subbers take them out.

But I'd actually like to see them....those Japanese have some crazy and funny commercials after all.

Funny you mention this, since I was thinking the exact same thing yesterday.
I for one prefer to see one or two Japanese commercials in anime. I was watching an anime where they weren't removed and I thought the commercials were an entertaining watch

I'm reminded of the Morning Rescue drink commercials between the Madoka episodes.



So...Um...What's a word or phrase that's a stronger version of "hell yes?"

No. But I am not one of them.

If I wanted to watch goofy Japanese commercials I'd just bum around on YT or NND.

I've thought that too. Mostly when I'm watching raws and they leave the commercials in. Even though it would extend the show by like 3 minutes, I wouldn't mind seeing them, like everyone says, they are pretty funny.

That's the EXACT same commercial I saw during a Mawaru Penguindrum watch-through.

Just this once, I'll fulfill whatever your wish is.

Well, any nation has it's fair share of ridiculous/hilarious commercials.

I doubt the Japanese commercials are anything special. Just a handful of funny/bizarre ones that make it to youtube..

No all of their commercials are pretty wacky.

Subbers should leave them in....they don't even have to sub it if they don't want to.

This was my first thought when I saw this thread.

Hidamari Sketch had ads for Manga Time Kirara, and Magical Suit Prism Nana left in.

I never thinked about this before,but from thinking now I would say I wouldn't like it because what use would it be for me to see some japanese commercials for japanese products if I couldn't buy them at my local store/shop.However when it's something like this
or this
then it would be cool :)

I would say coke is the "bad guys" if you look at 1:24 the can of coke is drinking the bottle of coke(which is equal to drinking blood) while the bottle of coke is shaking and probably screaming.This is called canibalism my friends :)

They will be interesting to watch at first but it'll get tiring eventually. Still I wouldn't mind
since I can always skip them if I'm not interested.

This reminds me of when I watched Mayo Chiki, and the subbers put an ad in. Everyone kept saying Subaru's name, and all of a sudden it cut to an ad for Subaru cars. XD

Seriously It would get really annoying if you were watching an anime and right in the middle of the most epic part it cuts to a commercial.

Haha, that Tommy Lee Jones commercial was great.

Honestly, though, I don't even care for commercials at all. They have a bad habit of cutting in and ruining tension when you are getting into something. This is one of the reasons why I tend to watch pretty much anything on computer.

Want to see more commercials? Just watch more releases from gg/Commie/Nutbladder and their associated groups. With some shows like Umineko, I've hoped for commercial interruptions.

Yet somehow Japanese fans manage to watch and enjoy this stuff on TV without going into conniptions over commercials.

Idk. At first it would be fun I think, but it might end up like Superbowl commercials. Like after you've seen them enough you just wish you could skip them.

I wouldn't mind it on stream sites though, just not on dl's/torrents as it could be jarring.

Yup, sometimes when I'm watching my VHR recordings of Doraemon/Crayon Shin-chan from way back, I'm always looking forward to the commercials. It was also back when commercials weren't as weird as today's Japanese commercials, you could even say they were quite 'normal'.

I find commercials to be very annoying, and break up the atmosphere. The main reason I love premium cable.

Japanese Commercials aren't what they used to be back in the 90's and early 2000's, today, they are very hit or miss.
