If it weren’t for Japan, advertising would be pretty boring. Sure, America pumps out a few gems each year but it seems gems are all Japan is capable of. That or the country is just really, really weird. Or…their normal and we just think they’re weird. Or, they just have a fixation with young girls in cheerleader uniforms and large rubber ducks emulating Godzilla. Or…oh, whatever. You decide.

This commercial was created by Mother London so everything we just said could be…rubbish as the Brits would say and all this is just one culture’s twisted view of another’s.
