AC Japan's tv ad of "magic words" with subtitles

[@tvcatoof]

This PSA was very controversial because it was the worse time to air it during the 2011 tsunami earthquake

[@LettersAndNumbers300]

This, it was on tv allll the time while the aftershocks continued.

[@CandidaRosa889]

The rest of the world will see this as a cute animation and song but the target audience despises it because of trauma

[@CYKind900]

My Japan friends wanted to throw remote control towards TV when they saw this advertising.

[@KrystalLake]

CYKind900 - It played nonstop after the 3/11 Tohoku quake.

Reading an article about the cultural impact, I can see why this proved very grating in the weeks/months after.

[@Melissasignal69]

[@EpicRainbowLollipop]

Cheesy puns

[@kotachan112]

the trauma...

[@agentnintendonate1thee2tan89]

I think I saw a video of this with the Thomas theme playing alongside, no subtitles and a toy version of Thomas in all four corners squishing in and stretching out...

[@SE7EN306]

They also made a very disturbing lost signed PSA with two white figures that keeps flashing on the screen

[@facastello]

[@laifyalif]

[@LovelyYT]

No wonder AC was terrifying

[@Joseph_Stalin5]

There are a lot of theories surrounding that ad. Some say it might not even exist, and that is just a mix of a bunch of ads that people fused and thought of as one ad due to misremembering it

[@whitewing2]

Why didnt they transform to robots?

[@yaminahmed9680]

Brian Javier 😂😂😂😂

[@Magnus_Caramelo_55]

I remember that video, I forgot what’s the title

[@CameronWilson-i5g]

The original before people started turning them into transformers

[@dyemooch]

I finally understand!

[@ponikoTV]

What is this comercial about?

[@tibethatguy]

It's about being polite and greeting people.
