the office is the amazing show we all know and love because it's based off he akwards moments. The laughing relieves the tension making it less noticeable
My friend shared me this skit, as a Japanese fan of The Office and Steve Carell I literally laughed out watching this. Also Bill's Japanese-katakana-ish pronunciation of "assistant" is very accurate.
I remembered the SNL monologue of Rainn Wilson, they're also acting like Jim and Pam. and Kristen did sound like Pam. A great impression. Jason did it well to..

@@Ryan-pg1tw Are you serious? First of all, I really don't think Steve Carrell comes to UA-cam to look for comment about himself, second of all, he would probably laugh at this comment, and third and last, even if he wouldn't laugh, he wouldn't give a flying fuck what "chocolate giddy-up" thinks of his hair.

Caden Hembree why tf would the office have a laugh track in the first place that’s the dumbest idea ever. The whole premise of the show is that it’s a documentary, not some dumb sitcom
Okay, so at 2:30 when Maikeru and Dwaito are having that board meeting; I feel like I'm having a stroke because it's just such a weird flow of words. It''s kind of like seeing adult men talking like boys with some sort of severe dyslexia and brain damage.

I've worked in a Japanese company as an intern and I can guarantee everything portrayed here (especially the morning exercise and the karaoke part as a celebration of a departing Japanese head) is ON POINT!
Only thing a disagree is there is no separate desk for each employee. I wish it was like that. It should have been a long plank of a table with chairs lined like a canteen.
And everytime they celebrate something or just simply hanging out to get some drinks, they will clap their hands every 10 minute or so. There's always a reason to cheer and clap their hands.
I'm currently learning Japanese right now in school, and my goal at the end of the year is to re-watch this sketch and finally understand every word if of it. Edit a year later: So we didn't learn a lot of dictionary words, it was mostly the written language and a lot of sentences grammar, plus some basic phrases. I understand a little more now but just barely. Luckily, there are three more levels of Japanese I can take the next three years, so hopefully by then I can achieve my original goal???
I'm Japanese, spent my childhood in the US and am a fan of The office, and this is very accurate 😂 The first kanji names shown seem to actually exist and fit each character!

@@linkfromzelda1002 it’s worth rewatching if you wanna get how funny it is that they swapped everything over to Japanese and used some Japanese mannerisms get the point across
Haruka Takagi Kudos to you guys for being able to take a joke. That is a breath of fresh air nowadays. I'm glad there are still people who recognize that you can have immense respect for a culture and people and still poke fun at stereotypes.

For people who don’t know Japanese culture, they actually do that dance in offices and classrooms. Same dance, same music. It’s not a joke 😂 Also, if you speak Japanese it’s even funnier
im glad you're here ! i love this skit so much, watched it so many times and i've never even watched the office XD im starting to watch the office right now hehe

It’s not racist. I’ve lived in Japan and they’d have a good laugh with this. Actually they might not see what’s funny since that’s pretty much how a local office works.
I just really appreciate Stanley playing Sudoku instead of doing a crossword 😂
Well spotted!!😂😂

Stanley played sudoku too, remember when i think Andy did all his sudoku and he was mad ass hell..😁

@@wanted247ha8 yes, he is damn god lol
Probably the last time a white guy said “it’s funny cause it’s racist” on mainstream media and got a laugh.
Bill would've been the best choice for replacing Michael, too (and I don't mean, to play Michael, but to play a replacing character). What a missed opportunity.
I’m Japanese, and I’m so impressed! How did they put it all together? It’s not racist, it’s pretty accurate 😅
I wouldn’t be surprised if this was an actual thing in Japan
@@seid3366 it’s close but not enough apologies and overtime work
I think every culture can relate to the silent pain that is white collar office culture
They probably just did some research or even talked to some Japanese people
I love it when some random cunt speaks for all of us.
Video: *Has no captions*
Anime fans: “My whole life, I’ve been waiting for this moment...”
It’s a call back you should know what they are saying by remembering the first episode. Captions would’ve ruined I think
@@wanted247ha8 I hardly remember what was said in the last episode.
@@linkfromzelda1002 it’s worth rewatching if you wanna get how funny it is that they swapped everything over to Japanese and used some Japanese mannerisms get the point across
Taskani
Kanpai!!
It's funny how they captured the humility of the Japanese people, check
2:55
As a japanese person, this was fucking hilarious. And what they're saying actually makes sense in japanese... kinda. They tried, A for effort.
the accent tho
kinda...ほんとそれなwww
but it was fun!!!!
Haruka Takagi I'm Japanese as well and I was laugh crying😂😂
Haruka Takagi Kudos to you guys for being able to take a joke. That is a breath of fresh air nowadays. I'm glad there are still people who recognize that you can have immense respect for a culture and people and still poke fun at stereotypes.
I'm a white, American mutt so there is admittedly not as much comedy stereotyping my demographic but what is out there I find hilarious.
It's the American liberal SJW's job to be offended FOR you, even if you don't want them to think they are trying to help you.
*Top 10 Slice of Life Animes*
I laugh a little bit. 😂
Stanley is doing sudoku, lol
He does play it in the American one as well though lol
Amanda Tenney that's kinda the point the original commenter was making 😂
Skylar Thomas - wasn't clear, since this is a Japanese segment, and he usually does crossword puzzles.
Amanda Tenney Stanley does sudoku, Andy made a comment about it
I love playing odoku does that make me japanese
なんだかんだちゃんと日本語喋っててすごいね😂🎉
Stanley is still black in Japanese lol
It’s funny because it’s racist 😂
Black people exist in Japan, too.....
@Ava Vikman of course, but they could’ve changed him into a different version of him.
Aisha Adnan why Michael Jim Pam and Dwight are still why so why can’t Stanley be black
He's actually Blackanese!
For people who don’t know Japanese culture, they actually do that dance in offices and classrooms. Same dance, same music. It’s not a joke 😂
Also, if you speak Japanese it’s even funnier
Yeah tho I considered it more of a "morning exercise" than dance
They actually don't but thanks for the false information
@@toragic3432 no, I went to a japanese school and we did this every morning
A Filth yeah they do it. So how about you stop spreading false information?
A Filth my mom did say she hated doing it as a kid.
All of the cast were clearly Japanese in the manga. Why does American media keep doing this?
i hate when they change things for the anime adaptation.
Nah mate, it was the Netflix adaptation that fucked everything up
I want mecha office.
to show that American can also do.
This is my favorite comment on this video.
日本語ちゃんと喋ってる〜！👏🏼
ファンとして嬉しいです。
kristen wiig nailed the japanese chick high pitch voice!
Relco12 I saw this man in my dream once
TOMATOOOLE same
Leo Sofisticato not a voiceover? lol voiceover would have been perfect 😂
Never heard a Japanese woman speak like that when I was living there.
That was clearly a voiceover.
Bill Hader can be the only Dwight to replace the irreplaceable Rainn Wilson
Lmao riiiighhhttt!
Ngl, before I started watching the Office I thought Dwight was played by Bill Hader
i am in Tokyo for a few months and happened to stumble upon this video again after so many years. so funny! I love japan.
Yeah! He did the Jim-looks-awkwardly-in-the-camera look!!!!
Gabrielle Kelly it’s just called Jimming actually.
Why am I only seeing this for the first time 6 years later?
im glad you're here ! i love this skit so much, watched it so many times and i've never even watched the office XD im starting to watch the office right now hehe
Dude I loved the office when it was still in its final seasons, I can’t believe this skit is 12 years old and I never saw it before either
I can’t believe it loved the office for years and just got this in my feed. What a gem!
You're not alone
Exactly
this is legitimately one of the funnies skits snl has ever had
2:17 he nailed that jim stare
"Captions: Unavailable"
Arigato UA-cam.
Me: UA-cam pls give me captions
YT: Daga kotowaru
@@sayospecter6731 No one's ever too far away from a JoJo reference.
Arigato... gyro
Profuse apologies, calisthenics, drinking and karaoke after work: this actually *is* the Japanese Office.
IDENTITY THEFT IS NOT A JOKE JIM, MILLIONS OF FAMILIES SUFFER EVERY YEAR
If they did that bit I would have died laughing
*Tim
Michael!
@@cadenmorris3680 Jimothy 😛
@@DomeeNyck Oh that's funny. MICHAEL!
Bill Hader is literally Dwight but with an extra strong jawline lmao
The awkwardness of how they just jump straight into the Regis commercial and then right back out again with no real transition is actually kind of perfect
I don’t understand anything but somehow I️ understand everything ...
I knew what I was doing, but in a much more real sense, I had no idea what I was doing.
Easy to pick up on "That's what she said", the stapler prank, and the assistant regional manager bit...
I really wish I understood Spanish more
Are u serious that's Russian...
SamBoy115 I thought it was a language of a tribe in Africa
Everyone is wrong it’s German
Are you all fools it's an Australian accent
Fucking hell the responses to your comment are hilarious 😂
I want 9 seasons of this.
How is that what she said
That’s not a that’s what she said
That’s too long man. I don’t believe we could handle that.
@@conexaoriotoquio that's what she said, THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
Pam: /answers the phone/ Hello. Dunder Miflin. This is Pam.
Michael: /enters the office and approaches the reception desk/ Pam, Pam, Pam, Pam, Pammmmmuuuu......san[TN: 'san' is a universal title attached to the end of names to address people]
Pam: Michael-san how are you doing?
Michael: That's what she said.
/Michael looks at the camera slyly bows and walks away/
----in Michael's office----
Michael: I'm the funniest boss in Japan. /lifts up his coffee mug that reads, 'World's Funniest President/Boss'/
----Jim's/Dwight's Desk----
/Jim calls Dwight on the phone/
Dwight: /Answers the phone/ Hello.
Jim: Where is your stapler?
Dwight: /discovers his jello ensconced stapler/ Jackass!
/Pam giggles, Jim looks innocent, Pam giggles some more and Michael enters the scene/
Michael: What is going on here?
/Dwight and Jim bow deeply while apologizing profusely. Pam joins in on the apology-fest/
----commercial----
Regis Philbin advertises a fake, Japanese brand hygiene product called, 'Ohimesama Tampons' [TN: I thinks 'ohime' means 'princess'] packaged in a pink box labeled with a baby duck. The little tampon mascot says, 'Ohayou!('Good morning!')
----end commercial----
Michael: /introduces himself to his employees in the conference room/ I am your Regional Manager.
Dwight: And I am the Assistant Regional Manager.
Michael: No you are not the Assistant Regional Manager. You are the assistant to the Regional Manager.
Michael: Now let us do some 'rajio taisou' exercises (rajio taisou - a set of regimented warm-up exercises implemented in some of the offices in Japan to promote a healthy body and mind for work).
Pam: Michael cares for everyone's health. /giggles/
/Everyone continues to exercise. Stanley does the crossword puzzles. Michael hurts his shoulder while exercising./
---Michael in his office-----
Michael: I think I did a great job. What do you think? /picks up and shakes the bobblehead/ Yes, yes, yes!
----Michael sings karaoke----
Michael: She is beautiful to me.
Dwight: /serves Michael some sake(Japanese rice wine)/ Kampai!(cheers!)
Michael says “You are the regional manager’s assistant. Why are you standing here?”
This comment is so underrated
Wow. Thank you for this.
Why?
Jomidot you rock :) thank you!
Bill Hader looks so much like Dwight!
Tehreem Siddique I mistook him for Dwight the first time I saw him when he was Andrew from the puppet sketch .
Bill Hader was almost Dwight
Wait that wasn't dwight?
Rainn Wilson was Dwight
Tehreem Siddique like a hotter version
The guy playing Micheal looks so identical! They should've hired him when steve left the show!
You're hilarious
You’re Hilarious
You’re hilarious
You’re Hilarious
You are hilarious
高熱が出た時に見る、気の触れた悪夢みたいで笑った🤣🤣
Slightly disappointed Michael didn't say "that's what she said" in Japanese
I think thats what he says at 1:24 ?
1:25 TO 1:27
He doesn't say that. At 1:24 He says, "What is that?".
He did
Im triggered that there are no captions.
It’s not racist. I’ve lived in Japan and they’d have a good laugh with this. Actually they might not see what’s funny since that’s pretty much how a local office works.
vdbdg yeah I actually thought besides maybe the overdone giggling that it was spot on.
no one said it's racist bruh
@@intellectualhybrid2 watch the very ending
@@contrasbeatshop oh . My fault there. I didn't watch the whole thing through
