Old man can barely walk and he think he can still make movies? This is only 60 minutes but I had to turn it off halfway. Stupid as fuck and seeing Kitano move in slow motion like when he pulls out his gun and kills the person to his target's right and then his left and then shoots the target while they all wait around was mind boggling. Reminder that weebos think this guy is great.

Currently watching pic related.
MC is job hunting, finally gets to the final interview. She trips on some CV contraditions, can't even explain why she wants to work at some company.
The final question asks her to describe her morning routine. She goes on and on about washing her face and shit. The interviewers all watch her in delight. She finally says she's trying to change her life.
She gets the job.

I thought most Japanese people writing professionally for shows went through the world famous gruelling job hunting process of modern Japan? How the fuck do they come with this shallow as fuck shit?
I cannot fucking stand office dramas. It's all generic make believe nonsense.

Absolutely shocked at how mediocre the Downtown+ content is. Matsumoto has surrounded himself with yes men so badly to the point nobody calls him out on his bad ideas anymore. Meanwhile you have shows like Suiyoubi or Chance no Jikan who are really pushing the envelope in the TV comedy world. It would have been better to retire if this was gonna be his later-era legacy.
>>
Anyone else having trouble watching legacy content on Downtown+?
The newly produced stuff plays fine, but the content from the archive (say, Gaki no Tsukai) fails with a 403 (not displayed to the user in browser).
As far as I can tell, that content was never licensed in my area of the world, so I don't think, it's a licensing issue.

Is it remotely historically accurate that everyone calls Futaba a kid in this? She's way past old enough to bleed, which I would have thought still applied in Meiji.
>>
>>50336274
Of course not. I haven't read the original, but it feels pretty "politically correct". In the first manga chapter he calls her a "girl", not a child, and I can't be bothered looking for a download of the novel to check that. It stuck out like a sore thumb.

Only the first ep is freelech though. You can get up to ep 8 on Nyaa, but they don't have English subs.
Btw, if that's the first thing you're downloading, remember you're supposed to show signs of activity during your first 30 days after registering, i.e., login AND complete a torrent. Idk whether the 30 day rule only applies to fresh accounts or Newbies in general (otherwise it's once every 90 days).

Where I'm from, that social security tax is roughly 30% (split 55/45 between employer and employee). What the hell are Japs complaining about? It's like 70 usd per month for the average Tokyo wagie. It's only going to go up since they refuse to have sex, but still, it's obvious that the reduction is 100% lobbied by companies.

Bunshun supposedly got access to the interview he gave with NTV's compliance team wherein he admitted that he invited a female staffer to his hotel room where he hugged, kissed and groped her. He also sent her dick pics. Then he admitted to groping a different female staffer's ass multiple times when the program staff held drinking parties together, as well as sending her flirty messages on LINE. He blamed it on being drunk.

Married with two kids btw.

4. Is that country always gonna stay like that? It's been decades and htey are still the same.That's why they are ruined tsk tsk

5. Cotton candy Ruby-chan..? Crazy

6. ㅇㅁㅇ? What is he doing?

7. I just don't think I match Japan's sensibilities

8. Is this really happening in 2025? Why is everyone smiling happily?? I really don't understand their vibe...

9. Just why is he acting like that? It's not even funny

10. That voice actress is quite popular no? Is he insane?

I watched this today. I like the concept and some of the characters, it has some nice sets and shots of 80s Tokyo but desu I don't think it's a very good movie. The plot is hard to follow and relies on exposition, and the protagonist yaks are kinda pathetic. Characters die too suddenly before you get to know them. It's also too slow to get to the part where Izumi finds her inner strength. And it's tonally confusing, I can't tell if things are supposed to be comedic or serious. I rate it 4/10.

Getting slapped by Antonio Inoki was an honor
>Antonio Inoki was invited to a university for a speech in the 80s and then told the students they can punch him in the guts. This guy punched him quite hard so Inoki retaliated with a stiff slap. The student, who later turned out to be an Inoki fan, had a successful career and life. The incident became very famous as the then live clip of the binta (slap in the face) was shown many times on Japanese television. After that, various celebrities, politicians, athletes, schools/universities and even common people in Japan asked Inoki to slap them to install courage or even as some sort of strange blessing. The slap's name is the "Fighting Spirit (or Toukon) Slap." (闘魂ビンタ)

Miss King was a complete was of time.

Personally, as someone who have rewatched Tetsuo many times, not one scene was boring or something that should have been left lying on the editing floor. I believe that Tetsuo is Tsukamoto's most unique work. You can feel his passion beaming all over it, not just simply as a filmmaker but as an artist. Pure adrenaline rush watching all the shit he pulled in that small apartment despite the limited budget and the lack of manpower. Tetsuo is the fruit of Tsukamoto's experimental labors that lasted 15 years, which unfortunately, most are not available anywhere. I recommend watching The Phantom of Regular Size, it's the prototype short to Tetsuo. Many of the techniques and themes he used in Tetsuo were from it.

this may be NNN talking but the women look so nice in their 150x100px windows
the 2nd one looks like she came straight out of the 80s with the tan and hair spray, and i guess everyone else in that pic looks in no way chinese even if they style their hair in buns

Wouldn't 万歳 be "mansai" instead of "manzai"?

萬歳 万歳 万才 漫才
They used all of it at some point.

万歳 is BANZAI, of which 萬歳 is the 旧字体.
万才 points out a talent, while 漫才 is the "manzai".

Am I wrong?

漫才 is the shabekuri manzai that started ~100 years ago with wearing western suits and just talking, before then there were other performances called manzai (like 尾張万歳) that were primarily performed around the new years and later became stage performances around the Edo-Meiji periods. 万歳 became banzai sometime during the Meiji period.

Interesting, /his/ anon. What about Conte, Ooogiri, and "Free-talk"?

I don't know, oogiri probably originates from some old performance stuff too.
