Of course, the Maritime Self Defense Forces‘ 2004 Recruiting ad that we mentioned in Seijigiri #11 was up at YouTube. We have our own .swf version, but haven’t been able to encode it as Flash Video, which is what we’d really like to do (though, I have managed to extract each frame as a .jpg - some of them will make excellent icons). So, for now, enjoy:


At the end of the commercial, the male voice says:

日本が好きです。平和が好きです。海上自衛隊。

We love Japan. We love peace. The Maritime Self-Defense Forces.

Hey where is the Cowboy, Indian, Construction Worker and Cop, and the uh, leather guy? Isn’t this a clear violation of copywrites?

Jarad, they’re civil servants.
