When you aren't proficient in the local language but your charisma is maxed out.
He's better than a lot of native English speakers.
@@juanitadudley4788 (he isn't)
@@NomTheDom His speaking is better than how a lot of native speakers write.
Fo realz
@Bag Stallion Not better than an edumabacated person as yourself.
I have no clue who this gentleman is, but he's great.
Yeah, right? I've been getting him in my recommended videos and I simply love it! :D
Aee takle
Ayy takle tu idhar??
Aye takle
Sorabh bhai he is Kawasaki. Japanese baseball player⚾
I feel like he secretly is able to speak English perfectly fluent but is just trolling all of us
That wink at the end might have to thinking that for sure
hes actually white, hes just in yellow face
@@auto1nfanticid3 ikr what a friggin racist
@@pradaprada6259 lacist*
@@auto1nfanticid3 Japanese have difficulties to say "L". So they pronounce it like "R". That means, that you are like all the racists dumb af.
This type of personality overcomes any language barrier.
"what happened to you today?" "Just crap."
First comment!
Honestly same
5 years later and this comment still hits different
SAME TBH
Relateble
After watching this, I'm increasing my daily banana intake from 2 to 3.
So...it's been a whole year...have you had any cramps?
It’s now been two years, so have you had any cramps?
So it’s been 3 years, have you had any cramps?
Eating too many bananas will give you potassium poisoning
So it's been 4 years, have you had any cramps?
"Monkey never camps."
-Ancient Japanese Proverb
and it works😁🐵🐒 work out today after ate banana. leges dont cramp😃
This is the most baseball I've ever watched
same
Me too
Lolll
basedball
I'm a Japanese who had played baseball in Japan for 9 years, and I just want to tell one thing to people who see this comment and love him. You might think he is funny because his English is not perfect. But also in Japanese, HE IS JUST LIKE THIS lol. He is Munenori Kawasaki at anywhere, in any languages.
Mad Primeape He has a very funny personality.
I think he's funny because that is fucking hilarious.
It's like a zen teaching, but completely absurdist humor.
+Mad Primeape
It's clear that he's not just funny because of the language stuff-ups -- he always does a cheeky hand gesture at the end of interviews etc. and you can tell he's purposely being a funny fuck. The guy is awesome.
+Mad Primeape I think he's funny just because he's fckin funny lol
Mad Primeape
Yes you're right!
日本人？
Not gonna lie, never played or watched baseball in my life, but this Kawasaki dude has been brightening my days lately.
Haha same, been going on a wholesome kawasaki binge
Same
Same, we're on a run with these Kawasaki videos!...
Monkey never craps!
This guy is adorable :D nohomo
Same lol
“Monkey never Craps!”
Roger that 🤣
💯% true, bananas = constipation. No cramps, but no craps either. 🤣
Thanks, I hate it.
Guys, HERE is Our TRUE Savior
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
@@Praise___YaH When will people stop the make-believe.
But they do though…💩
0:03
- So what happened to you?
- Haah??
lmao🤣🤣🤣
“Monkey never craps.”
pigeons always craps because they never eat banana
Just like hot chicks
best part is his serious stare into the camera as he says that lol
@@KAYYELI probably because they think they get their daily banana intake. Except they've been fooled, that's no banana.
Cramp. Not crap.
He even said "Arigato" at the end, this guy's amazing.
***** arigatou
wow, he can even speak Japanese
@@mangomanz lol
@v bruh
@@mangomanz lmao best comment no cap
He's being cheeky and he knows it, but it's played so straight that it's the best thing ever.
He knows what he’s doing, and that makes it so much better.
how could anyone not love this man
I hardly know him
@@Solidsteakx He has charm though.
Coronavirus: Allow me to introduce myself..
@@RIFLQ ignorance: allow me to introduce myself
China was the epicenter of corona not japan.
Luke Work you dumb or something? lol
David Attenborough voice: "Monkeys never craps"
I wish I could like this comment more times.
While he shows group of monkeys cranking up in slow motion.
thank you
“Marvellous”- David Attenborough
Arigatou gaizoma
I always come back to this clip whenever I'm having a bad day 🤙😆
8 Years later and this is still one of my favourite videos out there 💜
So proud of my baseball team right now.
PRAISE LORD MANKEY!
Never knew old man is a Jays fan
+BruceWillakers Even more now, I bet!
+BruceWillakers be proud of your team but not your shitty fans. throw the garbage in the bin, not at each other and the players on the field.
what about now?
What happened to you?
“Just crap”
“Just cramp?”
“Just crap”
xD
still better than Carlos Tevez!
Monkey never crap
i think about this video on a weekly basis and im not sure if its unhealthy
This man is a legend haha! Love him
本物や！Its real! wow
Plot twist: He really was trying to communicate that he eats bananas so that he doesn't have to go to the bathroom.
Haha, no one found you Luca - great guitar work!
No sir! YOU are a legend!
He had three because big monkey .
So, basically, when learning a new language, no matter how atrocious you are, if you say it with confidence you're good
He is probably very witty and clever beforehand, but yes don't be afraid to be funny or misunderstood
It’s good English though. He’s just a tad confused. My man is learning.
As weird as it may sound: yes. Confidence makes you a lot more understandable with whatever limited command of the language you have and it makes you a lot more interesting as an interlocutor, which leads to more conversational practice -> faster progress. Some polyglots out there even recommend pumping yourself up before a conversation in a foreign language to do just that
@@TheSlipperyNUwUdle well he isnt learning anymore because hes back in japan and has no use for english.
yeah and that’s how you improve it! output is all it matters!
He is hilarious without even trying lol
Kawasaki is such a fun baseball personality. I like him a lot.
“So what happened to you?” “Huh?”
Lmao
😂☠️
@@ogge9304
Heard any news from the other provinces?
Nothing I'd like to talk about.
Be seeing you!
Bye!
Kawasaki is a big Norm fan.
His expression when he said "huh", looks like Yakuza about to make you regret asking a stupid question.
That little wink he gives the Camera before he turns away... he definitely knows more than he's letting on, lol.
😂😂😂 he plays the fool where as he is very intelligent
100%
A man truly ahead of his time.
his voice went from a normal person to ULTRA DEEP at the very end
This reporter looks like a mix of Andy Bernard and Ryan Howard
RA DUT DUT DA DOO
Oh my god you are absolutely correct
0:17 he turns from Andy to Ryan
Put some toby in there too
Omg hahahahw
Bananas really do help by the way. Hes not just telling a joke
@@julmar4304 yes! and the fiber in them helps to absorb and retain water. Very Japan tradition mainland
Healthy form of energy
Well yeah... monkeys never craps
Really ?? I thought it was just a joke in some sports animes like in Haikyu 💀
Two or three? I need to know!!!!
I miss Kawasaki
He dead?
@@abdoyyy767no he retired from baseball
Coming back to this video again from a viral tweet. To be honest, I watch this at least once a week 😂
I love how he looks at the camera when he delivers that final punchline
this guy has got to be the world's biggest(and Best) Troll..
Someone Give him a medal (or a statue)
or both
Or a banana
@@garbello8640 or three
Mune we all miss you❤ You made all teammate and fans happy❤
I always find myself going back to this video
I love this guy, everything he says is golden.
almost 5years ago...
I miss this guy
same. such a unique personality
Is he already retired?
@@madedaryl7315 According to Wikipedia he went back to the Japan league with the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks in 2017, took a break for a nerve disorder in 2018, then became a playing coach for the Wei Chuan Dragons in the Chinese league in 2019.
Same here. He was a part of the Toronto Golden Age
@@Ian_Somnia thanks for info
I like to hear him say in a low voice "thank you Arigato" after he's said all that.
he's just the best interview in sports history
What happened?
Just crap.
I love how he was not smiling at all, he was really determined about what he was saying, and was totally serious 😂😂
This guy is hilarious.
This interview is the best🤣🤣🤣
BEST INTERVIEW EVER! As a Jays fan, I demand the Jays keep this guy on the team.
Agreed..
David G I read that last part as "even when he's playing for us :)"
David G Since Jeter is retiring, they could have Kawasaki at short....that would be ideal!
I hate Kawasaki
I eat three banana. Because ... monkey... never... craps.
People used to travel hundreds of miles to the orients to get this kind of wisdom and you lucky bastards are getting it for free!
@O K you must be fun at parties
@O K oof
@O K oh no
Fking ruined it, let’s go home guys, party is over.
Hey knucklehead your flag is upside down.
I watched one of his interviews last week now I cannot stop. Wholesome and awesome
This guy periodically shows up in my feed and puts a giant smile on my face , his energy and charisma is infatuating
I've fallen in love with this dude. I don't even know who he is or what he does but who tf cares. He's amazing
Really good professional baseball player
@@primo4915 oh thanks i thought he was a motocycle
He plays baseball
He plays for the celtics.
Regal 7 it starts with k ends with s
the guy in the background laughing after he says "monkeys never cramps" = my reaction
"Monkey never cramps. Because a monkey everyday eat bananas, two!"
"So how many did you have today"
"...Three, Kawa ate three :-)"
Kawa is hilarious! great energy... great sense of humor! Love people like this!
He was so awesome when he played for the Blue Jays, his character and sense of humour is legendary here in Toronto! 🇨🇦
This guy, whoever he is is my new favorite person to exist.
Dude got a 2016 ring. Loved him w us.
Don't mind me. Just out here watching all Kawa interviews
Oh Kawa... I watched all his interviews and couldn't go through a single one without laughing!
Bro is speaking facts honestly 🔥
this man's an absolute ledge.
Seen a few of his interviews. Dude is hilarious. Huge personality.
I like this man, he just says whatever he wants and just doesn't care if people laugh at him 😂
i keep hearing "monkey never craps" and i cant get it out my head
This video never gets old😂😂
5 years later and I still miss Kawasaki just as much
I wish I could fully express how much I love this man
I revisit this video every few months for the joy it brings
Send this to Ohtani ❤️
ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THE WINK AT THE END?! ;D
+Soojin Sou giant.gfycat.com/IllFemaleAntipodesgreenparakeet.gif
+Soojin Sou Nah, nobody saw it at all
not the first time I saw him do that
It got me pregnant
He's telling the truth lol, bananas have potassium which is an electrolyte and keeps you hydrated = no cramps
I heard Nootbaar drew on this interview when he got a cramp.
This is the 3rd time I’ve seen this guy in my recommendations. He cracks me up each time 🤣
He seems like the most carefree person to ever exist
I am bawling right now, trying to laugh silently at work as tears are streaming down my face
MOnkeys never cramps is one of the best quotes I have ever heard
Bruh, did Ohtani not take his advice? LOL
To me japanese culture seems very reserved, quiete, aometimes shy, and very formal. This guy mustve been the most popular dude in tokyo with his personality.
Also i like japanese culture. And inloke this guy. I like you too.
OUTSTANDING
So profoundly spoken and makes so much sense
i look a lot videos of him. he is allways in a good mood.
He’s so serious 😂 When he looks straight into the camera he just cracks me up.
“I need three banana. Because monkey never cramps.”
this man is gold
he is so smooth too. thank you very much arigato.
probably the best sports interview of all time
You learn something new every day.
Today I learned a monkey never craps
Thanks, Kawa!
man I started getting recommendations of this guys yesterday and my life just got a whole lot happier
Kawasaki made my day
What a charismatic man
He’s so precise in his answers
I LOVE KAWASAKI!!!! Sending you banana in Kansas!
Protect this man at all costs!
This guy's amazing! I saw him one time on the streets of dt Toronto. He was waiving at me, so I waived back, but then I realized he was waving at his family that was right behind me. I felt stupid 😂
I don’t watch baseball but every time this guy pops up in my feed I make sure to watch. My king!!
This is a flawless human being right here, protect Mune at all costs.
He knows people are laughing at his accent and he's rolling with it and being funny.
+Ramen117 People aren't making fun of his accent. They're laughing at what he says and does.
He's just a funny guy. He's not rolling with anything. One Japanese guy in comments says was always like that, even before he moved to America
This is so pure
i love that little winks he gives after every conversation
This video is a legend.😂
His English is basic English level,but,most important thing is confident he has
