Also note, that "KUROFUNE" means "Black Ship", which is referring to the black ships that Matthew Perry road in on when the US forced Japan to open their borders over 100 years ago. So the joke is, the "gaijin/hafu" correspondents are bringing in information from the outside. This show doesn't take anything seriously, lol.
Great stuff Max! Hilarious, thought u did very well in what must have been a crazy and pressured situation! I would have felt super awkward dancing behind the AV girl randomly!
Awww, I bet this was a little shocking for your first interview! I won't lie though, it's very entertaining especially the 'oh my god'. Your face when you said that made me giggle like a schoolgirl!
The AV actress made me kind of sad, tbh. The reactions everytime you said something correctly were killing me. It was half way between mocking and sincere LMAO
I must say good job for HaPa. I did not know you could read kanji so well. Weather was kind of bad... I must say the New Half make me laugh.... How I miss Japan TV.
listen man, been watchN ur vids 4 3+ years.... N i barely ever, ever comment on Utube but man, ohh man, this was just pure comedy GOLD!!! i laugh at your pain, but i salute your fortitude ...wishN u nutN but luck, wherever life take u, 頑張って下さい...幸運を祈りますよ
Thanks for sharing. I would be super nervous even just reading the screen. You didn't look too bad. Nice job. Too bad about Matsuko though. That is too scary to think about. lol.
+Al Kameido Well, I've gotten over the fact about her and still laugh about it. I'll attribute my shock to culture differences haha. No hard feelings towards Matsuko because it's just whatever now.
I can just imagine how terrifying it would be to be ambushed with those questions. The producers would be like: "Hey this handsome hafu would be good for a laugh, let's put him on the spot and see how he goes!". It seemed the Matsuko Deluxe liked you too!
I moved to tokyo initially for model work and i wanted to get into TV and drama, but I had a hard time and moved back to hawaii, are you still pursing drama/tv/cm ?
Cool no way! You substituted for Fukawa Ryo! He's got this weird dead pan humor. About 9 years back he was pretty popular in the comedy space. Not sure about now though since I don't live their.
Nice! Thanks for sharing this with us! I was looking for this video but couldn't find it. Just one question... at 7:50, is a guy waving behind you? haha
that is so cool, I accaly when to your agency(lol) but they have bot put up my picture because I forgot to sign up for an program audition about Norway. LOL but Im going to big as big(or) bigger than Mrs. Lola!!>;D
Epcot Goon Thinking back, I remember now that one of her lady customers in her bar (seen in the video) told me to stay and drink with them after shooting.... I did not, haha.
I guess I answered my own question from watching this video. I'm assuming you know Joe because you're involved in a media related career. That's pretty cool dude, I want to get into something like this myself. However I'm not like fluent in Japanese or anything. I actually wanted to start my own youtube channel in the future. I plan on moving to Japan after I get my BA. I will probably be vlogging about cars and racing, fashion, food, etc. If you don't know who StevePOV is you should check out his channel I kind of want to be doing something like that.
You got me at お願いしマクス. How do you know the Japanese word for incest? Or did you just respond like that because you know she was doing some crazy stuff?
![Japanese raised outside Japan VS Foreigner raised in Japan 【VERSUS】#3 [CC]](/img/n.gif)
HAHA Max, you're just too cool ;) I was dying when you said, "oh my god!" you poor thing!! You did great! SO COOL!
Oh my God...
+Max Capo seriously though how did you know the Japanese word for incest?! lol! I couldn't even read the jimaku.
+Beta Cuckold You have some issues man. Please seek professional help.
hazukashi.....
Oh max god
OH MY GOD!
Wow it was quite raunchy for a 5 o'clock show! "I stopped opening my legs and opened a shop instead"...

More like, it's super-xenophobic you dumb idiot
your expression was priceless when mama said "I also did incestuous stuff" you had me dying
Great stuff Max! Hilarious, thought u did very well in what must have been a crazy and pressured situation! I would have felt super awkward dancing behind the AV girl randomly!
oh my god, introducing yourself and then "MAX" and the 🙅🏻
Oh my gosh, I was dying the entire time. 😂😂😂You did a great job!
Amanda Nolan Haha, glad you found it funny, and thanks!
When I start to think I have a grasp on Japanese culture, I stumble on to something like this.
生放送のプレッシャーの中、良くやったと思いますよ。グッジョブ！
Good Job, Max! I think you did the best!
lister kyte Arigato!
being Japanese (well half), this was hilarious to watch... says the one who can't even speak Japanese haha. Don't worry I'm on the same boat as you.
I don't know why but I laughed so hard at 3:38, you were like "Here's the bar ^_^" and the camera was like "Yeah,yeah outta the way, kid" XD
Finally!! i've been waiting for this XD
love your Japanese accent!
ちなみに来月1日に１年間で名古屋に留学するので、MAXみたいに日本語をすらすら読めるように頑張ります！

Awww, I bet this was a little shocking for your first interview! I won't lie though, it's very entertaining especially the 'oh my god'. Your face when you said that made me giggle like a schoolgirl!
The AV actress made me kind of sad, tbh.
The reactions everytime you said something correctly were killing me. It was half way between mocking and sincere LMAO
"Oh, my god" I laughed so hard!!

+Andi Hester Can't believe this was two years ago!

I must say good job for HaPa. I did not know you could read kanji so well. Weather was kind of bad... I must say the New Half make me laugh.... How I miss Japan TV.
Ah that was really funny!!! you should definitely consider showing us the next episode you were :-)
+Kavo-Thizzla Alright, it'll be out next!
You were a bit "kamikami" (getting stuck reading the script) but I can see Matsuko and Fumie were quite supportive of you :)
They cut him up when he was saying bye at the end! Lol
Awesome video man
MATSUKO AND MAX ARE MY OTP
Lol, dude you did great! Every scene you were in was fun to watch, and I laughed quite a bit. Hope to see you on some more big shows in the future!

Sooo cool mate!
Thanks for sharing. I would be super nervous even just reading the screen. You didn't look too bad. Nice job. Too bad about Matsuko though. That is too scary to think about. lol.
+Al Kameido Well, I've gotten over the fact about her and still laugh about it. I'll attribute my shock to culture differences haha. No hard feelings towards Matsuko because it's just whatever now.
oh my gosh ~~~~ this is really great!
awesome man I enjoyed that.
This. Is. Awesome.
I can just imagine how terrifying it would be to be ambushed with those questions. The producers would be like: "Hey this handsome hafu would be good for a laugh, let's put him on the spot and see how he goes!". It seemed the Matsuko Deluxe liked you too!
I'm not half Japanese but I studied Japanese from a young age so I can relate to what you're going through in the video.
hi max, I was nervous watching you, i know the pressure when cameras are rolling, but also in a second language!! great job on the show!
+Taro Yokoyama I'm just glad I didn't punk out and I challenged myself to go for it!
I moved to tokyo initially for model work and i wanted to get into TV and drama, but I had a hard time and moved back to hawaii, are you still pursing drama/tv/cm ?
4:14 WORLD CLASS MOUTH GAGGING im done hahaahahahahaahahaha!!!
You did so well tbh. XD plus you're monochrome pronounciacion is really good too
Props for playing an oldie Kanye track in the end!
Hilarious! Japanese shows are so funny!
You did good Max! You were hilarious!
Matsuko deluxe is so funny i saw her in batsu games
This is hilarious. Good job btw.
8:07 Lmao that guy behind you
Cool no way! You substituted for Fukawa Ryo!
He's got this weird dead pan humor. About 9 years back he was pretty popular in the comedy space. Not sure about now though since I don't live their.
Kevin Saxton Oh, well, close! -- Hori Jun was actually the sub for Fukawa Ryo (the NHK guy). I was subbing for some hafu guy named Soejima.
Nice! Thanks for sharing this with us! I was looking for this video but couldn't find it.
Just one question... at 7:50, is a guy waving behind you? haha
12rabattaqueue Yeah, the studio is actually right in front of a window, sort of like Good Morning America. The people waving are funny aren't they?
頑張りましたね！
オーマイガーｗｗｗ
His face seems to be frozen in a permanent state of surprise 😳
マックスー なんでこんなに頻繁にテレビ出られるのー？ すげー

that is so cool, I accaly when to your agency(lol) but they have bot put up my picture because I forgot to sign up for an program audition about Norway. LOL but Im going to big as big(or) bigger than Mrs. Lola!!>;D
shit i can't believe that
I would of not been able to respond to her answers at all, and would of said OH MY GOD as well through out the entire interview lol
Epcot Goon Hahaha, I was actually saving that line for the best one, because I knew everything she was saying warranted that kind of response.
Max Capo God I could only imagine what happened off camera
Epcot Goon Thinking back, I remember now that one of her lady customers in her bar (seen in the video) told me to stay and drink with them after shooting.... I did not, haha.
Max Capo I don't blame you, I wouldn't stay either after the interview was over because of the story I just heard would scar me for a while.
+Epcot Goon They had to edit the part out where she started talking about doing "scat"... I never thought of Scatman John the same way...
I guess I answered my own question from watching this video. I'm assuming you know Joe because you're involved in a media related career. That's pretty cool dude, I want to get into something like this myself. However I'm not like fluent in Japanese or anything. I actually wanted to start my own youtube channel in the future.

"mouth gagging"
You got me at お願いしマクス. How do you know the Japanese word for incest? Or did you just respond like that because you know she was doing some crazy stuff?
