When I was in Japan they played this commerical all the time on TV for this kind of pizza that has crab(kani in japanese) and mayo on it. It's pretty good stuff. I tried to record the commerical because of how weird it is, and the tune is catchy, but it was never on when I was ready.:p My GF found the website and you can watch the winter seasons version of the commericals here. (http://www.pizza-la.co.jp/cm/index.html) IMO the first one in the list is the best one. Enjoy!!!:)

Nice jingle-like adverts. The crab reminded me of this silly advert for beer ^^ :

While it was cute, I don't see anyone dethroning ESPN for pure brilliance in commercials.

I found out they have an english menu (http://www.pizza-la.co.jp/menu_e/menu310_pub.html), but at $22 to $33 a pizza it's kind of pricey.:p

not to mention they probably have more western celebs in their commercials (many of which they are making fools of themselves in... ie. Arnie)

I agree, some of those ESPN adds are just brilliantly funny.

That's funnier than radioactive rubber pants.

ESPN? What's that?
