Japanese Pac-Man Comedy Routine
Good comedy transcends the language barrier and this clip is a great example.
Taken from a Japanese comedy show, this routine depicts a day in the life of Pac-man done in a top down camera mode and a creative use of lights and costumes. One of the Pac-Men is uber famous Japanese comedian, Akashiya Sanma, a fixture on TV in the land of the rising sun. (As much as I would like to claim I knew that already, that info was given me by my good buddy, Ashcraft.)
The costumes are hilarious and the ghosts changing after Pac-man eats the power pellets is pure genius. There’s just something about grown men in tights and ghost costumes beating another guy with big sticks that not only makes me laugh, but also reminds me of my twenty first birthday party, but that’s another story…

Yeah, I’m thinking it’d be MUCH funnier with subtitles.
