Christmas in Japan is Bizarre

PFFFFF his subtittles are in comic sans

[@markitail0607]

Hello luigi, didn't think i would see you here

[@markitail0607]

and damn I didn't even realize lmao

[@Broockle]

with my browser addon, everything is comic sans 😊

[@bluekewne]

* Seeing comic Sans in the subtitles fills you with DETERMINATION.

[@Memmyrabilia]

His voice is also in comic sans so it works

[@sat6000]

近所のスーパーではクリスマス通り越して既に正月飾りと鏡餅売ってますね...

[@joeydestructo]

This was too funny, you guys have great chemistry. Also you'll be delighted to know that every holiday starts several months early in America now too. They were selling Halloween candy here in August -_-

[@GoldenSuperKamichu]

かわいい 毎年クリスマスは同じ曲を延々と聞かせられるね

[@markitail0607]

二人とも出身地違うから 文字起こしのフォントも違うの笑う

[@AndrewB21]

違うフォントは出身地というより、たぶん性格のほうを指してるんじゃないかな。

So unhinged, love the manzai vibes hahaha

[@xena3567]

You two are great together, thank you

[@leponpon6935]

そですね、メリクリスマス~

[@ezzi89]

I wanna see and hear dogen singing last christmas

[@T____W____7777]

Yesterday my girlfriend started listening to Christmas Eve by 山下達郎, and will do it everyday until probably New Years. That’s how I know Christmas season started.

[@siekensou77]

Great song. I also like the version by Kick the Can Crew. And then the KMNZ cover of that Kick the Can Crew version was also good.

[@Lillyluri]

Today is the 40th anniversary of 'Last Christmas'!

[@bluescrubby]

Love it!!😂

[@lastnamefirstname8655]

nice japanese christmas! and i'm also going to be kuribocchi again this year too, dogen!

If anyone don't know, Christmas starts 1/11 in Japan, ends after 25/12

[@DDranks]

As a Finn, I feel left out everytime 北欧 is translated to "Scandinavia" 😢 (Explanation: 北欧/hokuou/Nordics includes Finland, whereas Scandinavia excludes it)

[@Humanitycalls-wo1bh]

A Japanese: "Christmas and Halloween looks fun, let's celebrate it!". Another Japanese: " Yeah, but let's leave religion out of it." The whole Japanese population, "Cheers to that!".

[@sandedyng]

This was such a fun video!

[@misterbalrog]

Love it :D

[@brianpack5479]

200+ miles from nearest family. 100+ miles from closest friends. Working third shift on the night of the 24th. I'll be kuribocchi this year.

[@kyuurichan_]

I'm doing a part-time job at Kaldi, and it was pretty confusing to shout out "We've prepared a lot of Christmas goods, please come to us~" in sunny November days when it's still +22 outside

[@PlatinumMadLad]

the colonel got it going on tho

[@henehefu]

DogenがだいぶYabatanなまりになっている

[@kristiadamski]

I miss a lot of things about Japan but not the ridiculousness that is Christmas in Japan. 😅 Also, you guys are great! I hope you do more videos together.

[@pahoopahoo]

やばたんさんが最後に歌おうとしていた「あ〜♪」って何の曲だろ。 この文脈だと何か定番のクリスマスソングなのはわかるんだけど何の曲なのか浮かんでこない。

[@sunnyvivi2840]

I think it is "All I want for Christmas" by Mariah Carey.

日本人がKFCとかいうジャンクフードをクリスマスの日に食べるというのを最近知ったｗ

[@dfsdh432v9]

99%の日本人は食べないけどね。

[@Dakotaro]

クリぼっちだけどクリスマスが近づいてくると意味もなくワクワクします

[@flummox3d]

The fact that his subtitle is Comic Sans. I can't.

[@StoicGaming-m6k]

KFC, Yoshinoya, and Famichiki the holy trinity of awesome chicken in Japan... Amen?

[@PendragonDaGreat]

"Don't Americans Eat KFC all the time?" Not anymore I don't, a 2-piece Chicken Combo is up to almost $12 in my area.

[@nekogami87]

Oh man, that hits on so many levels XD

[@SyrEmilon]

I wonder what people in Japan must think when they hear that Jews eat Chinese food on Christmas.

[@liorgilboa2972]

No we are actually eating donuts

[@SyrEmilon]

on Hanukkah. Which this year makes sense. But over a century, American Secular Jews have eaten American Chinese food on Christmas. Now even religious Jews will eat Chinese food from the myriad of Kosher Chinese restaurants that cater to this trend.

[@paultuck]

I remember being in a Don Quijote store in November in Tokyo and getting surprised by Last Christmas and then Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas. Nowhere in the world is safe from this it seems.

[@Taramushi]

I keep forgetting how good your 2--man skits are

[@technodaisy18]

1:21 there goes my attempt at Whamageddon on the 4th of December lol

[@Aiko2-26-9]

You guys are having too much fun.

[@soundwaveblue]

We need more Manzai skits like this!

[@azgher10]

The people are claimming for it, Dogen! Please sing "Last Christmas"

[@officialdism4443]

今年もクリぼっちだからケンタ食ってLast Christmas聴いて仕事帰りに新築の気合入ったイルミネーション見るんだ

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

For Christmas chicken in Japan ---Mos is where it's at...

[@XSpImmaLion]

Illumination mi ni iko yo... noooooooooooooooo

[@ferretyluv]

The fact that Dogen wasn’t hitting him with a fan like a proper tsukkomi upsets me.

[@CoNeNeCo-qk4ut]

ラストに流れるシュールな効果音ね😂好き

[@jemduck101]

I actually just moved to Japan, and am so excited for Christmas here. I reserved my KFC way ahead of time while back in the States, haha!

More Manzai Please!

Your Manzai is crazy good 😂

Wow. I was really attacked by so many jokes so fast

[@mgancarzjr]

If everything good according to plan, i will be celebrating alone in Tokyo with a bucket from The House of the Venerable and Inscrutable Colonel. Also, i caught that めっちゃ

[@foloili]

I am here because of Takashii Interview 😊

[@toyama307]

Dogen and Yabatan. The perfect combination. Almost as good as KFC and Christmas

[@brandonhughes4076]

If I understood it right, I think the "Kurikon" joke was a play on "Kurisamsu" (christmas) and "Rikon" (divorce), so basically it's a word that means getting divorced around christmas time lol

[@yyyy-uv3po]

Why so dark? It's probably just "kekkon" (marriage). "kon" actually means marriage, so basically spending your Xmas with your waifu.

[@brandonhughes4076]

@@yyyy-uv3po I assumed "rikon" because it would make the word a pun, since it contains both "kuri" and "rikon" with the "ri" shared between them

[@AndrewB21]

@@brandonhughes4076 I have a feeling the joke was more poking fun at the obnoxious number of made up words in the vein of kuribocchi that modern Japanese is plagued by.

[@nork22]

More manzai performances please!

[@akikom.491]

いつから、吉本、、（笑）🤭

[@CyberStrike]

Damn you two are great, is this 漫才 (Manzai, Japanese double act)?

[@MrSaywutnow]

Is Christmas-themed Manzai a thing in Japan? If it isn't, it should be.

[@sekaijin8193]

Good nanzai 😂 Also yeah, Christmas in Japan is not so good compared to America or other western countries but their attempt at it is interesting haha

[@bryson2662]

Nah, Christmas season starts after Halloween no matter where you are

[@la.zanmal.]

もう早くメリクリしますね〜

You don't even eat KFC that often in Kentucky. We eat convenience store / gas station fried chicken.

[@Guardian016]

Japanese KFC is actually quite good with juicy, tender and fragrant fried chickens.

[@PianoA-lk8qp]

Talk about Drama Queen

[@lm_dccxl4078]

this look the same as those skits on japanesse tv with the 2 comedians and 1 mic. neat.

[@nork22]

It's called manzai. It's basically a funny man and a straight man routine.

[@anjansharma8631]

Bizzare? Is that a JoJo reference

[@WayneManifesto]

KFC in Australia is absolutely disgusting

[@ZanicaKnight]

ほ〜〜ちょっとした漫才の上演してくれた、でしょう？😏

[@SM-ok3sz]

I never understood why eating KFC on Christmas was such a weird thing for the Japanese to do other than the fact KFC sucks

[@DavidCruickshank]

Because why wouldn't Japan eat normal Christmas food or Japanese food.

[@montaedean2211]

to be fair. most fast foods were traditionally closed on Christmas in the US, including KFC. Eating fast food on Christmas had an "outrageous" image. These days, where money is more important than anything, many fast foods are open in America on Christmas, so the image for fast food on Christmas now is "thoughtkess" and/or "poor"

[@lastofthestarmakers]

This was lovely and I hope ya'll do more together.

One day when me and my sister were watching Keroro Gunsou, I asked her, "If you had kids, how old would they have to be to watch this anime?" She said, "Oh, absolutely not! I don't even think _we_ should be watching it..." I said, "Hey now, don't get crazy..." Then she said, "He's 40 and he's attracted to a teenager, he keeps spying on people and selling pictures of them on the black market, but at least he likes adults, how old should you have to be to watch that?" I said, "um... That's a tough question..." "What about K-on? That one's wholesome." She said, "I dunno. That teacher's pretty creepy..." Then as a joke, I said, "What about Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutst"? Then we both said, "Definitely not!" Neither one of us could think of a single anime we've watched that we would consider kid-friendly.

[@itsalwayshalloweenexceptwh5118]

You're lucky you get to talk about anime with someone in your family. Mine doesn't want to talk about it, I have not been able to convince them it's not just "cartoons for kids". But I wish you happy holidays!

wait, since when did you form manzai duo? and what is your group name??

[@chris_t2020]

I assume this is supposed to be manzai?

[@とーふ-t4f]

I've heard that Christmas is the day to spend time with your family in America, while in Japan people are frantic to have sex. is that true?

[@nandes_777]

Hmm, Japanese also spend time with their families...It is not necessarily a mistake. Many sexy images and cartoons are created on the Internet about the Christmas season. Japanese people in particular like to play with words, so "聖夜 Seiya (Holy Night)" is slang for "性夜 Seiya (Sex Night)" and so on...Sorry. Japanese people are perverts (some of them).

[@garytheosophilus]

I’m inferring you mean using a chicken instead of an apple pie?

[@とーふ-t4f]

@ I didn't know the apple pie thing but maybe yes.

[@itsalwayshalloweenexceptwh5118]

In all of the west (or at least most of the west) it's a holiday that emphasizes togetherness with your family. Not just parents and children but grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and grandchildren as well. The more generations under one roof during christmas the better. For example in the Netherlands typically as many family members as possible get together and have a big dinner party. People would arrive just before or around noon though and have coffee/tea and some traditional pastry/sweet together, then between coffee and dinner time the adults will sit around the table and talk to people they haven't seen in a while or be in the kitchen preparing all of the food, whilst the children are entertained by christmas movies or playing boardgames with each other. The US is sort of like that but also includes hyperconsumerism. There tends to be too much emphasis on the gifts and what the gifts signify (such as status) and not enough on just spending time with the family.

[@Player-re9mo]

In my country (Romania) we eat mainly pork for Christmas. I guess Japanese like chicken more.
