This took quite a while to translate, so please enjoy.

[@MichaelHarto]

Lol, both girls breaking character is so funny

[@qq84]

They do that after 1:12, 3:07, 4:26, 5:38, 8:12

[@norad_clips]

In general I love how this seems like a commercial where they left the outtakes in. Like they said “cut” and everyone breaks character, but they left that in too.

[@levelm7689]

These are great they just seem like they learnt their lines then filmed in one take, but you can tell everyone is having so much fun

[@MarkSalazar69]

Mai Shiraishi and Asuka Saito for the cultured ones in the comments section.

[@Gratn]

This should be pinned

[@Max_Griswald]

I'm not cultured, but they are both gorgeous and funny!

[@Japanalysis]

One mistake I made while translating this video is, especially since my channel is known for its explanations and analysis -- I failed to self-insert into the shoes of someone who doesn't understand Japanese. This video is 100% absurdism. You're not missing anything. I gave you all the information you need to be at the level to understand the humour. There's nothing more to it. I got long Discord messages asking me how the Katakana words with the bar vowel extension could possibly be confused with eachother -- there is no way they would ever be confused for eachother. That's the joke.

[@buttdickenz]

Ah I see. It makes sense now.

[@Gabriel87100]

It makes me think of a futuristic setting where you have cute androids running a shop but constantly mistaking the voice inputs of the clientele, still adorable :p

[@chusganzerla14]

Yeah, first of all, as you said, japanese humor is full of nonsense and surrealism.

[@wiru48]

The joke is based on this confusion. Meta-joke mixing the words spelled the same even sounding different, using the products of Mouse with the customer. Based on a antique word-game following the last particle or the last formed word with a new one. The second one is "inverted sarcasm", used a lot on manzai duos or even kabuki ones too. Called inverted because the "absurdism" of following a different path before lead the second one joke.

[@wiru48]

Oh yes, and after the inverted sarcasm comes the classic tsukkomi/boke humour, used a lot in manzai too. Classic form of japanese humour with some back and forth used on stages (repeat after me with Asuka to second guy and this guy with Maiyan).

[@joetehbro]

As you point out in the pinned comment, this video is absolute absurdity. But it builds on the popular format of 'manzai' where one person plays the 'tsukkomi' (straight man) and the other(s) play the 'boke' (fool). It plays off of the absolute absurdity of actions / statements of the 'boke' whereby the audience sides with the 'tsukkomi' who usually attempts (and ultimately fails to) reestablish some kind of normal interaction / situation. I'm going to show this to my Japanese 101 class lmfao

[@Vysair]

And it works really well! I really love this type of skits they pulled on many tv shows and anime

[@AndyU96]

You guys must be fun at parties

[@GrinningStudios]

This is an overtly silly commercial banking on the cuteness of the two idol girls and the comedic silliness of the comedy duo. It is so crazy and cute it is hilarious. The idea is to make it unforgettable in order to solidify the mouse brand into your mind while also giving you an idea of the services they offer. It’s pretty genius in its simplicity and effect. It’s in the same vein of commercial psychology of the red bull gives you wings silliness but using celebrities and showcasing their specific talents to make it memorable.

[@kevzortd8073]

Yeah pretty smart marketing

[@Afghamistam]

This is a pretentious comment pointlessly telling us something that is obvious just from watching the video.

​@@GrinningStudiosyes, nobody wants to read your illusion with the marketing discipline

[@BenSamaChan]

Seeing them break character was the best part!

[@jonathanlane2579]

Thanks - this made my day. Been a fan of these Nogizaka46/Mouse vids since they appeared on KZbin. You're right, easy enough to figure out what's going on, but thanks very much for filling in the gaps with translation!

[@amrishpatel3501]

That's how I found them through the Mouse commercial videos on KZbin. Especially Shiraishi Mai who graduated from the group at the end of 2020. She has a KZbin channel as well since August last year. Shiraishi Mai was my favourite member of Nogizaka46 & I'm subbed to her KZbin channel. :)

When the guy was talking about ordering some pepper was laughing like an idiot but with the UNMA skusaku i died. This video is really good man, thanks

the guy in stripes really just said whatever he wanted lol

[@rachmatzulfiqar]

"don't mind"

[@murphylhunn]

Fantastic. I love "what the hell is going on" humor. Gotta go digging for subbed japanese sketch comedy now i guess

[@jon87583]

I've been addicted to Mouse Diner for a couple of years. Thanks for translating - the delightful acting really got the message across even without the translation, but thanks! Having watched several comedies - TV series and movies - from Japan, I can confirm: Our Japanese friends are funny.

[@mistermikeyjay]

Thank you for explaining this - Japanese comedy has so many nuances to it, its hard sometimes for westerners to pick them all up. You must be busy - when possible can you do the other Mouse Diner video with Sissonne and Nogizaka46? It seems like more laughs and more innuendo. Otsukare :)

[@Japanalysis]

I'll probably upload it within a month. No guarantees but it's in the queue. ^_^

[@Japanalysis]

Haha oops I lied - I did truly intend on making it at that time though. I dunno if I’ll do it anymore, however… sorry 😭

[@fauzikudou7503]

do you have link to original video? I understand japanese a little and I want to see it

[@tevarinvagabond1192]

Not really that hard...same for all cultures, once you understand the culture a bit you can understand the humour. People from outside the West struggle with YOUR humour, so don't act like Japanese humour is special or the hardest to understand

[@humanbean3]

"Is that how it works? Then I'll bu- Of course I won't buy one!"

I don't know why but Mouse company is like people also like our commercial/ AD's we give them more this one was weirdly GOOD.

[@Bones12x2]

This guys a good actor. It's very difficult to do a schtick like this and come across as genuinely reacting to stuff you already kniwnis going to happen.

[@norad_clips]

2:32 that little put out expression she makes for a second there

[@Kirou_02]

After watching that AD a few months ago, getting this recommendation brings a smile on my face.

[@chaosPneumatic]

I live in Japan now and I used to see this company on KZbin ads here with the same actresses. But they were like 5 seconds and gave no context at all so I had no idea what they were selling. Now I finally get it. Thank you!

[@elliot_rat]

the fact that this feels ad libbed sometimes is so good

[@Larry]

So this is the Japanese equlivant of the BBC Two Ronnies "Four Candles" sketch?

[@libertyprime7911]

This is excellent! Thank you!

[@Aka.Aka.]

The absolute patience of this man 😂😂

[@mirlamontano6640]

translating and explaining these weird and complex jokes is wonderful! I laughed a lot. this video has a lot of work put into it, thank you!

[@RedsHitpostMedia]

I see the jokes are just play on words or puns but with the "waitresses" being the boke while the White shirt man is the Tsukkomi. Really the funniest parts are when they break down from their ad lib so at the end the ad puts a smile on your face

[@vorcanvorcan9032]

サポートするな！🤣 Poor guy, all he wanted was some food and drinks to be served by cute waitresses.

[@paulyiustravelogue]

The sole reason I stuck around and watched the whole was Mai Shiraishi ❤

[@scottianson5133]

I don't need a new laptop but I want this laptop just because of how cute and funny the ads are.

[@Kainlarsen]

He could've made this all a lot easier by asking for the coffee and toast while the other guy was there... or just saying "I'd like to order the same, please". :D

[@jessicaregina1956]

This company has achieved the pinnacle of ads. Ads where u not only don't skip, u actively seek out more

[@g0dzilla_au]

Was real happy when I realised I could follow the first ad. Was completely lost after that though. Thanks your your translation!

[@Ross_5979]

This is seriously the funniest commercial I have ever seen 🤣

[@TheJVH]

I like how the striped-shirt guy just tries to make them break character with improv. At least that's what it seems like to me.

[@Shinji_Dai]

It's like a Monty Python sketch! This is great!

[@shnuff5053]

"I'm pretty hungry... so I guess I'll have toast."

First I watched this years ago was from the first uploader without translations, shame that I missed this 5 months ago. But thank you!

[@hamsandwich6374]

I remember watching this commercial on YT years ago, I believe most of the members are doing solo stuff now as far as i remember.

[@ataridc]

is that what you believe, kid?

[@404BlackWolf]

What a hero thank you so much for doing this!

[@pandarudin]

i didn't search for this but i'm glad i found this channel. =)

OMG... So, like... my gf is Japanese but we're both Dutch. I dunno how we fell into this but you guys owe me a new coffee table (naah!) and her a new drink (yusss) 😁 She did explain some to me, and I get the word joke idea, but the way you executed it.. omg... I'd have grabbed the PC at 2:08 and ran :P

[@yurymleh]

Hi, thank you SO MUCH for analyzing, translating and explaining it! I found more episodes on youtube but auto-translation makes absolutely no sense! Could you pretty please analyze newer episodes?

Honestly I learn a lot by this video, well I already watch it this long time ago but w/o sub and the meaning joke of skits, this kind video is rare when you watch cute girl and laughing while learning some joke of japanese people. Well just maybe u can sub and explain the 2nd of this skits

I didnt get the jokes, I still laughed though. It only evolves the humor.

[@Japanalysis]

I'm pinning a comment addressing this.

[@appleOgreen]

laughing at meaningless shit is ok, but its not evolved, its not even humour. its just basic human behaviour. Its ok if you dont know what constitutes humour, and its ok if you just laugh at this without pretending that its because its some sort of "evolved" humour, being dumb and laughing at dumb shit is normal, no need to degrade it with the insecurity of wanting to make it seem like some sort of "evolved" or advanced behavior when you yourself know what it is :)

Thing i already know is that mouse is a computer related brand in japan. And bfore this explaination vid come out, i just conclude that this is must a some high lvl and insider joke of japan language. As conclusion, i end up with 2 option. 1. is that i learn japanese to understand this. 2 is just move on not knowing what is going on. And i choose the 2nd option back then.
