hilarious

Ever seen Star Trek dubbed in a different language? You may have, but it is nowhere near to this Japanese dub of the first episode:

Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock both have almost the same voice over so it is hard to distinguish them. Too bad Scotty does not feature in this prologue...

Another shot from the same episode:

It is really weird to see all those American actors speak fluent Japanese. I only wonder what they did with the voice of Hikaru Sulu. :D :D

Now this Nissan 720 pickup surely has an identity crisis:

Nissan 720 Datsun VW pickup
Now is that a Nissan, a Datsun or a VW? :D

Of course the Japanese love, just like us, the foreign brands more than their own. ;)

Found at Life doodling.

Now this was a huge laugh for me: the Dekochari!

Dekotora is an abbreviation for Decoration Truck (Torakku). Chari means bicycle, so mixing it up with the Dekotora abbreviation it becomes Dekochari! Dressing up your bike into a Dekotora is just hilarious!

The soundtrack is called Ichiban-boshi Blues (by Bunta Sugawara and Kinya Aikawa) and the footage comes from a video called Dekochari Yarou.

If you thought that wasn't funny enough, how about the Dekochari at 0:26 being driven by Daijiro Inada?

And how about another one just for the road? :P

Yes, another hilarious posting today! This picture was too funny not to post. ;)

Hello Chaser JZX100
Now that's a Chaser that will certainly not be forgotten when it goes sideways on any circuit! :P

Found at Doritens blog about a pink meeting in March.

The Japanese food producer Hagoromo decided it should hop on the Star Wars bandwagon in the late 70s and made this commercial:

This commercial is promoting their famous Sea Chicken, which is basically just a can of tuna.

Maybe they would have sold more if they called it Star Chicken instead! ;)
