TV in Japan

You may (or may not) have seen the video floating around the net titled 'The Japanese Tradition: Sushi' which claims to show viewers proper sushi etiquette and is filled with all sorts of very funny bits.

If you've haven't seen it, go check it out and then come right back.

That video was the work the 'Rahmens' two very out there Japanese comedians. A lot of what they do obviously plays into the western interpretation of Japanese culture but (as far as I can tell) it is originally created for a Japanese audience.

Well, it looks like the Rahmens have created another video, this one about what to do when 'you have troubled somebody'. It gives detailed descriptions of exactly how to express your sorrow at upsetting another's feelings.

Enjoy.

NOTE: Google Video went down. YouTube to the rescue.



Thanks to What Tian Has Learned and WFMU's Beware of the Blog for the backstory.

Of course, I need more info on these guys. If you have it, let me know.
