A thread for discussion and recommendation of Japanese TV and movies.FAQ: https://pastebin.com/BARFCHgFPrevious Thread:>>49999634
I'm looking for a Japanese comedy that I found a clip of on Twitter and bookmarked it but then it was apparently deleted so now I'm trying to find the source.It was a purposely low-quality comedy scene of a Japanese school girl and school boy in a stairwell and the girl trips and falls with exaggerated low quality smoke effects. The boy yells out "Hinako!" and then it pans over to the girl upside down in a very exaggerated sort of scorpion position.I'm not sure what type of media this came from. Given the low quality nature of it, it could even be just a youtube video or something, but IMO it felt like a comedy movie. It seemed somewhat modern and the comedy levels are extreme parody levels, not like a romcom.Anybody have a clue what it may have been?

>>50090850This is exactly why I'm looking for this clip lol
>read that the Saudis bought EA (and earlier, SNK)>wonder when they will buy janiizu out of their misery
I'm amazed this film is still coming out after the scandal the main female lead is in https://youtu.be/7uCTZNNveEA
When's his next drama?
>>50090468What's this? Movie?
>>50092079The new asadora.
Of course U-Next and Abema don't let me sign up from outside of Japan...at least I've found the 2007 M-1 GP on bilibili, now just 3 more missing.

>>50093060The owarai business is saved
>>50093184It took you this long?>>50093382Honestly, I hope it does well. TV comedy is completely stifled by compliance, and youtube work is obviously just cheap promo work. Bet it'll be fucking impossible to pay for without a JP bank account though.
>>50093060>1100 per monththat's more than every major streaming serviceit's dead
>>50090468hopefully this creates a fad for igirisu men with bad japanese
>>50094553he could pass as japanese

>>50094553I'm so jealous
>>50094596I remember watching some random videos from this guy like 5 years ago. Is he still alive? His YT doesn't seem to exist anymore. I feel like that entire channel could be studied in a college class.
>>50094553I could fix him!!

>>50094553It should've been me...
>>50093686It's not outrageously more expensive, Abema and Hulu are about the same. They should have plenty of content for that price though.
>>50094553>tfw no cute Japanese girl will ever look at you like this
>>50093060Hope they actually do a batsu game.
>>500930601,100 yen is appropriate if you think of it like a fanclub. And it's even cheaper than some idols fanclubs. My only concern is if they have the fanbase for such service. Downtown's fans are mostly in their 40s+, I'm not sure if there are hardcore Downtown otakus among them who'd be fine with paying such a fee.
>>50093060>>50096235It could easily be worth it if they produce shows starring other geinin. Especially if it's more like old school variety.
>>50092017He's a flop outside janiizu
>>50096235Downtown are still big, the problem is ultimately, Matsumoto is expensive. If he has the foresight to forgo his own income in an attempt to make a full on Yoshimoto platform for variety style comedy, it could do well, but it'll likely wind up as a Documental style low effort thing with big prizes and not a lot of substance. If they lean into the "too hot for TV" angle and get a few controversies they completely blow off because "fuck you I don't care what cunts on twitter are doing", it could work. But still, it's a big ask when their promo is just "downtown's back catalog", if they were smart they would've secretly filmed a year's worth of stuff they can dump daily.
>>50097480There was already a supposed leak from an entertainment agency manager that they had auditions based around that concept but decided to shelve it.https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/56721228ddf227e9c748c91c6e0fef630af44670
>>50090468Any interesting Japanese action tv series like Alice in Borderland?
>>50097351How much of a flop is number_i?
