Will the Japanese ever stop being hilarious?

By the 3rd or 4th phrase, when I realized they were not only teaching English through young women doing aerobics but useful phrases for getting robbed, I entered a fit of uncontrollable laughter that began long ago and ended only recently.

Must see.

(Might not be SFW if your work doesn’t like young women in 2-piece aerobics gear / also some screencaps of girls in bikinis on the page that you load the video from)

The “Let’s Go Dutch!” made it sound as if they were rooting for the Netherlands in a soccer match.

Pretty damn funny.

There are more episodes posted on youtube.

Now, that’s actually very clever, to connect learning phrases in another language with body movements. A great way to retain the information.

“Spare me my life!” was pretty weird, though.

…for a country that is terrified of using English while speaking to english speakers… there was a surprising amount of “Learning English” shows on Japanese tv.

Still less hilarious than Algorithm March + Ninjas:

And that is just morning TV for kids! :smiley: (Safe for work, just a fun song to show what an algorithm is)
