One of my classmates showed me a fabulous video entitled "How to Eat Sushi" at our last class. I vaguely recognized the actors and after more digging, found their identities and more vids in the same style. They are Ramenzu (ラーメンズ）, Kobayashi Kentaro and Katagiri Jin, recently seen in the Japanese version of Apple's "I'm a Mac" commercials. Their recent project, "The Japanese Tradition," is made up of several short episodes poking fun at various Japanese traditions: Tea , Chopsticks , Sushi , Origami , Apology , Onigiri , and Relationships Apparently, the humor is so subtle, that many foreigners have mistaken them as actual instructional videos. Some of these are subtitled, some are not. Enjoy!
