Japanese Break Up Service!
Break Up Service!
Are you unsatisfied with your current love life? have you found out your lover has cheated on you? are you disappointed or embarrassed to be with them anymore? Avoid those messy, dangerous break up conversations! Have a clean slate without the heartache! Akira's Break Up Service is ready to serve you, any day at any time!
Ok jokes aside, this is an excellent Adidas advertisement by Kosai Sekine (for those who want to look him up) about a guy who offers breaking up with your lover in your place... and thus take all the crap that happens right afterwards. Boy, talk about avoiding the issue lol! (might be good to deal with those yanderes though...)
It's also interesting to me because the song used for it is called "Perro Amor Explota" (a completely awesome song) of La Bersuit Vergarabat, a great Argentine group, so this advertisement is like a mixture of cultures I've assimilated during my life (and entertaining to boot!). Quite delightful to see cultures I can relate to (and enjoy) mixing like this. I usually don't see much South American flavor in anime; the only one I can recall is Chad from Bleach...

Picture found in Danbooru, I just edited the text for my convenience.
Hilarious!
Ahahahaha! That's freaking funny, especially at the end XD I guess he becomes an expert after doing it several times! How many hoodies does he have, I wonder...
I guess I didn't really notice the song much since he had a lot of dialogue and subs, but I noticed it at the end and sounded good :)
My guess is that he's paid well enough he can have a full room of hoodies XD
I didn't either, just that it was in Spanish. Since I grew up listening to Argentinian groups/singers I take them for granted. I don't even try to get the CDs of songs I like as I would with an anime song ^^U
LOL! Very original CM. I like.
Reminds me tho, I just bought a Adidas, Originals by Originals hoodie by Kazuki Kuraishi ;)
It's a nice example about originality not being dead yet ^^
Hahahaha I'm not that much into clothes (if it fits, it's nice and cheap then go for it) but I do admit paying for the good stuff has its merits (the quality speaks for its price)
I liked it. =D
Muhahaha XD that's what you call creative ^w^ !!
loved the story ^w^ which can call for an entire TV series itself
I think this story is interesting because of its shortness. We know the gist of it and the result of having to lead that kind of life. If it was a TV series the jokes would get old fast and it'd not be as funny. Then again a short series would be interesting as long as it was well executed ^^
LOL! It actually seems like a very good business idea. Although, finding the right employees might be a little tough. I enjoyed the CM nonetheless.
It'd be someone with stamina and that ran very fast for long periods of time XD
Wow, that was surprisingly awesome. I would totally watch it if it was a TV series XD
I second that. I think this'll make a great sit-com.
Awesome commercial...definitely stands out of the crowd...wonder would anyone dare to try their hand at this service?....
I think this would be awesome for those pesky, to-be-stalkers who just don't take no for an answer.
Wow, that commercial its pretty funny and it was really cool the fact that they used a latinamerican rock song that fits well the video =O...
With a bit of research I'm sure they could've come up with Japanese music that fit the video too, but yeah I like the fact they're incorporating other stuff from other countries too (besides English/American)
Oh my, this is good! I had a good chuckle out of it!
this is really funny and creative XD
^^ that was awesome
Lol....so funny. ^^;
Great commercial. Haven't seen such funny ones in a long time. ^ ^
That's an entirely new way to do a commercial. Very creative! XD
What a hoot, truly entertaining and hilarious. Thanks for sharing.
