I just realized why he likes him. The girl doesn't give a shit about bubble gums. She's just there for the action. The guy, on the other hand, is just as obsessed with them as long man. Like him, he's always chewing them or bringing them around, going as far as to bring them to his marriage. When he says "surely we'll understand each other" he meant that they both shared a passion. This is top tier storytelling.
She's not there for the action, but for the length. She explains it herself, claiming that looking at long things reassures her of her own mortality over an unnamed illness, affecting how long she has to live. It's also evident in what brings her back to Tooru-kun as well, as she realised that he's the same length as Long Long Man - just segmented for easier consumption. Side note, the two being the same length makes for some clever foreshadowing to the two's pairing looking back!
I love the little detail at the last advert at the ending card, instead of "Sakeru Gummy *vs* Long Sakeru Gummy" it becomes "Sakeru Gummy *and* Long Sakeru Gummy"
they don't want to advertise against any of their own products, that's probably why they have the friend say that the short gummies have just as much net worth
Everything about this is a masterpiece: - the joke - the dramatic fainting - the coworker with a graph - the gay romance twist - the fact shes fucking hallucinating the guy everywhere - that she was just going to ditch the dude in the middle of their own wedding - long long man himself - that damn catch music
Also the fact that she supposedly has a health issue that is going to end her life soon, but completely ignored going forward, so it could very well be just a lie to get out of having an "affair" with the long gummy
It’s a beautiful touch how throughout the ads, they always end with ‘sakeru gummy *vs* long sakeru gummy’ but at the end it’s ‘sakeru gummy *&* long sakeru gummy’. They are no longer opposed and can live in harmony, it’s beautiful really
this is legit the best advertisement I've ever seen, so much effort, actually entertaining, interesting and so bizarre that you'll never forget about this candy
I just noticed, with the "sakeru gummy *VS* long sakeru gummy" scenes, the camera always seems to zoom in and focus on only Chi-chan's short sakeru, not Tohru's, during the "Long Long Man" riff part It always was a Chi-chan *versus* Long Long Man battle for Tohru's gummies and heart, even in the slogan
This commercial has everything. Comedy, romance, betrayal, and in the end, Long Long Man took us on a ride, a ride full of emotions. Truly, a remarkable piece.
I'm kind of blown away by how they managed to actually keep the joke going, advertising the candy AND making a semi-decent, engaging and funny teledrama all at the same time. XD
@@y2shuproblem eh, they probably do it by weight. I doubt every person working to make this snack actually cares about putting the 'right' amount of pieces in every bag
At first glance, Chii-chan seems elegant and cute, but she is too used to being loved by others and only cares about her own happiness. Toru-kun is a nice guy, but he doesn't seem very smart. Long Long Man looks cool and sincere, but he is a stalker who only pursues his own happiness. In the end, the fat girl who works with Chii-chan is the best human being. She recognizes reality and tries to convince her friend not to go down the wrong path, with tears in her eyes.
Note to non-Japanese advertisers: We don't use ad blockers because we hate commercials, we use them because we hate YOUR commercials. Make your commercials even 1/10th as good as this and we'll watch them. Also: LONG LONG MAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaAaaaAAAAAAAAAnnNNNNnnnnnnnnnnnnNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!
@@mmgmagic I DO remember hearing something about how an elephant sound was used for the Miguel theme as well. My best guess is that this is some stock sound effect and it just happened to be used in this commercial too, lol
This is how I want all commercials to be like from now on: in a series, with a plot twist, and STRONG sexual undertones in a sophisticated way and not just "person that's barely clothed"
I just realized that this commercial series actually won a digital media award back in 2018 because of the whole direction. Kudos to the people who came with this entire series.
iirc, someone said that folks in japan were literally waiting for the next segment of the commercial reel to be released, like it was an actual serialized drama, with people getting genuinely invested in the comical relationship between these three.
Even though I laughed my ass off, the ending was an asspull, sorry but why would the long guy "sleep" with the girl if he was after the boy all the time? Anyway it is a commercial and a very funny one on top of it!
This sounds stupid, but this made me cry. I had a best mate who I use to walk to school with everyday, one day when I was about 13/14 I showed him this and he loved it. It was the joke we would often say to each other, he passed away almost 3 years ago at the age of 16 to a brain tumour. May his soul be blessed by God
American Hollywood writers could learn immensely from this. A 6 minute commercial series had a complete story with plottwists, conflicts, and an absolute resolution at the end.
Wish SuperBowl ads didn't need to pass all kinds of red tape, because if they didn't someone could pay to play these ads throughout the SuperBowl. I would love it honestly. "Hurry up! I need to see what happens to Tooru-san!"
@@monot00nz they could at least make a long series with connected episodic ads cant they? And what about those dorito innuendo commercials the red tape never stopped those or the various superbowl bikini commercials or the infamous carls junior all natural burger ad from super bowl 2015
In the second to last clip, you can already see Long Long man lookin in Tooru's direction, he only looked at Chi-San when she ran up to him. It's those tiny details i like in these Long Long man commercials.
Bro, at 3:50 Did anyone else notice how Long long man let go of the balloons after Tooru-San proposed? Im pretty sure he was in shock- shooketh, one might say.
That part where Long Long man and the girl is in bed is just Tooru's imagination when he saw the long strip on the bed. If you look at how Long Long man reacted when the girl tried to be fed the long candy in the mouth, Long Long man actually looked away in awkward confusion. (and likely bailed out after that, leaving only the long candy behind). Yes I am that invested in this dumb commercial, don't ask me why, I don't know either T_T

Every couple of months I go back and rewatch this commercial serie and every time I appreciate and respect every damn detail placed into this. This is just a marvelous thing in every aspect. You have: - Identifiable characters, so you immediately recognize the commercial - A cheesy song, so it gets stuck in your head - A plot drama, making you think about the commercial long after it was shown to you But not only that, the more you watch it the more details you identify. Things like: - Short man is ALWAYS shown carrying the small bag of gummies - Chi-Chan ALWAYS drops something when seeing the real Long long man. - The "Long long man" song not appearing when Long man is not shown or referenced. (Commercial at 2:30 and 3:00 ) - All the not so obvious "long" references, like: - "I want to look at it longer" - The shirt on Long man at 1:31 saying "Long distance bike" - "Waiting for a long time" And my favorite of them all, you technically COULD see this plot twist from miles away if you analyze that Long long man is the ONLY guy that we see eat the gummies. Short guy carries them, but never eats them. Only Chi-chan does. If the gummies are a low innuendo about penis sizes and the Long man is the only guy we see eat them, you could deduce that he is gay right from the first episode. Awesome job Sakeru Gummies.
Daniel García The Long Long Man song does play for the commercial at 2:30 and 3:00. It’s just a variant stripped down to the main melody played on the piano in a different slow tempo.
There's also the fact that Long Man looks uncomfortable when Chi-Chan comes onto him in that third advert, which you might not catch onto upon a first viewing without knowing the twist.
I think there should be more commercials with a story. If there were more commercials with a story I would be more likely to buy the product depending on how good the story was, how good the humor was, or how good the ending was.
It was his dream job ever since he was a Long Long Boy. He only felt that he earned the title of Long Long Man after get the Long Distance Bike delivery job.
this is the most insparational piece of art i have ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes upon, i was in a deep depression before i discovered the sanctity and comfortness of the long long man.
It sure does that getting married to the person you love really gives you the happiest moment in your life, Not until you hear, LONG LONG MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN~
3:50 Long long man heard Tohru-kun's proposal to Chi-chan and was so shocked he let go of the balloons he was holding. This is when he knew it was his last chance to confess his love to Tohru-kun.
I just thought this was a series about a man stealing a mans woman from him with a tasty candy. Then I found out, it wasn't the woman he was trying to steal. 10/10 would watch this soap opera again.
I think the best part of this is that the co-worker who had a chart prepared in advance for some reason straight up said that the new product they're advertising is not only exactly the same as the old one, but also arguably worse.
So was this ad campaign split up over multiple weeks and only people who paid attention would have gotten the full storyline? This is so elaborate and goofy plus all those innuendoes just to sell a candy. I love it!
Is that not common where you are? Where I'm from there have been ad campaigns with stories that go on for years (not that they quite match up to this work of art)

she didnt want to leave long long man
That part where Long Long man and the girl is in bed is just Tooru's imagination when he saw the long strip on the bed.
If you look at how Long Long man reacted when the girl tried to be fed the long candy in the mouth, Long Long man actually looked away in awkward confusion. (and likely bailed out after that, leaving only the long candy behind).

- A plot drama, making you think about the commercial long after it was shown to you
But not only that, the more you watch it the more details you identify.
Things like:
- Short man is ALWAYS shown carrying the small bag of gummies
- Chi-Chan ALWAYS drops something when seeing the real Long long man.
- The "Long long man" song not appearing when Long man is not shown or referenced. (Commercial at 2:30 and 3:00 )
- All the not so obvious "long" references, like:
- "I want to look at it longer"
- The shirt on Long man at 1:31 saying "Long distance bike"
- "Waiting for a long time"
And my favorite of them all, you technically COULD see this plot twist from miles away if you analyze that Long long man is the ONLY guy that we see eat the gummies. Short guy carries them, but never eats them. Only Chi-chan does.
If the gummies are a low innuendo about penis sizes and the Long man is the only guy we see eat them, you could deduce that he is gay right from the first episode.
Awesome job Sakeru Gummies.
It's so good it made you do literary analysis on an ad
One little correction, in the second advert Chichan doesn't drop anything.
Damn that is deeper than the adult swimming pool.
Daniel García The Long Long Man song does play for the commercial at 2:30 and 3:00. It’s just a variant stripped down to the main melody played on the piano in a different slow tempo.
There's also the fact that Long Man looks uncomfortable when Chi-Chan comes onto him in that third advert, which you might not catch onto upon a first viewing without knowing the twist.
I don't even know how the fuck I got here, but no complaints. This shit is hilarious! 😂
Tess Crelli Same bro. Same😂😂😂
Tess Crelli lets GOOO
Lmao
Charles Hart They're clearly speaking Japanese bro
You clicked on the video?
I think there should be more commercials with a story. If there were more commercials with a story I would be more likely to buy the product depending on how good the story was, how good the humor was, or how good the ending was.
I like how the delivery bike he works for is called "Long distance Bike"
It was his dream job ever since he was a Long Long Boy.
He only felt that he earned the title of Long Long Man after get the Long Distance Bike delivery job.
@@CrystalGreymon *long long distance bike
Is it weird that i actually got invested in this
No
It's weird if you didn't
We all did, buddy.
Absolutely not
When her work friend stacks up the gummies and says what she says, I tear up
this is the most insparational piece of art i have ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes upon, i was in a deep depression before i discovered the sanctity and comfortness of the long long man.
Greatest commercial series of all time. No contest.
Men who turn straight men gay
1.) Ricardo
2.)Moto Moto
3.) King DeDe
4.) Long Long man
You forgot James Charles
level I said “men”, not “pansies”
Claude from Fire Emblem
ITS KING DEDEDE YOU FUCK
you forgot a De
I hope this was drawn out over a couple of years
Max Poole can’t wait for long and regular mix bag
It would've been a super smart marketing move if they did. Consumers would keep anticipating every commercial
Y E S .
It would’ve been a LOOOoong LOOOOOOooong time
JJ Michelle (long) (long)
4:51 And a wedding?! He shows up to her wedding?!
"I knew you'd come for me, Long Long Man. I mean, her. I mean, I knew you'd come."
Damn Japan knows how to sell me candy
Imagine seeing one of these commercials without seeing the other ones...
If you watch them individually they make sense, if you watch them all together they form a masterpiece
If you watch one randomly its like watching an anime and you don’t understand the storyline
@@DullerThanChalk Just like how Sakeru gummies are just cut up Long Sakeru gummies.
@@elroy9173 Damn
Best slice of life
4:55 Notice how he FIRST looks at Tooru, and only after at Chii-chan.
"Hello, my love."
"Hey, bitch."
@@CurtisAlfeld IOFEIOJFISLJ
I dont know if sakeru gummy is smart for doing it or if you're smart for noticing. Probs both
@@CurtisAlfeld I- 😂
Now this is how you write a plot twist
This will be forever stuck in my mind. Props to the marketing masters of the universe
I love the detail of when long long man was in her house, we never actually see him feeding her. It secretly hints he doesn't feel the same.
A man was paid to yell this Long long man thing, remember it.
I want to be that man
@@thesuperdoge2476 life goals
I can't NOT imagine it now
And boy did he nail it
Long Long MaaAAAAAAAAAAn!
Worth it 100%
The Marvel Universe has nothing on this.

It sure does that getting married to the person you love really gives you the happiest moment in your life,
Not until you hear,
LONG LONG MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN~
That would be the happiest moment of your life, because the one person who really loves you is here to steal you away
This might legitimately be the greatest commercial (or series of commercials) in history.
3:50 Long long man heard Tohru-kun's proposal to Chi-chan and was so shocked he let go of the balloons he was holding. This is when he knew it was his last chance to confess his love to Tohru-kun.
HOLY SHIT YOU ARE RIGHT LMAO
@@BobUtsunom1ya its funni how its actually true its a yandere um long-long mandere
Oh my goodness, so much thought went into these ads.
Also, every time Tohru-kun sees the Long Long Man he reacts positively

PandasNeedSoup this guy
This commercial series should get an academy award.
They managed to cram 2 hours of a highly entertaining American movie/tv series in a 6 minute commercial for gum.
I like how that one girl was just ready to pull that chart out in 3:08 ,she prepared for this conversation before it even started
Nice profile picture I see u are also a person of culture

What the fuck is wrong with your pfp lol
If your freind is like that you need to be prepared for anything
@@bruv7521 i think they changed it can you tell me what it was
Who said humanity was out of creative ideas?
Seyfert Barely but ok.
This pops back in my mind every few months and I just have so much fun watching it
Literally my favorite soap opera. Every once in a while I come back and rewatch it and still get emotional at the ending, its so beautiful.
If these are the ads CZcams is forcing us to see I ain’t gonna complain.
SpyroDragonShades You should star by touching it....
*New!* LONG LONG MAN CANDY NOW WITH CREAM INSIDE!
but how will you know that there is a shitty game of thrones mobile game, that is nothing like the commercial.
I just thought this was a series about a man stealing a mans woman from him with a tasty candy.
Then I found out, it wasn't the woman he was trying to steal.
10/10 would watch this soap opera again.
Plot was so perfect
Same. I would rewatch it with friends too.
They make it 100% more entertaining
I think the best part of this is that the co-worker who had a chart prepared in advance for some reason straight up said that the new product they're advertising is not only exactly the same as the old one, but also arguably worse.
This is the best comercialidea that i have seen in my 36 years of life !! you people are realy great !!
More LGBT representation than all of disney
And the best part is that there's no forced agenda.
This is how you write diversity, not just putting people with different skin tones just cause you need to. Take notes, Hollywood.
Literally the best LGBT representation EVER tbh
@@RenerDeCastro there is no such thing as a forced agenda, yall need to shut the fuck up with that nonsense
@@Ariel_emerald sure buddy.
Should've used this ad's writers to write GoT season 8
You're goddamm right

The first few seasons were actually quite good, let's not lie.
@@alexkurtdark Because they had the source material.

Screamed and cheered and camed

@@tuckergoodin7684 _You will learn to do the same soon, like him, and like the long, long man_
Exactly, these ads were an entire anime season and we need more
@@jackmclean4120 pause
Long long man was playing the long long game.
Next time im in japan ill be buying this gummy for sure
So was this ad campaign split up over multiple weeks and only people who paid attention would have gotten the full storyline?
This is so elaborate and goofy plus all those innuendoes just to sell a candy. I love it!
Welcome to Japan Marketing
@@ProtoPropski ah see this video is the long gummy and the original state of the ads was the smaller segmented gummys
LONG LONG MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
Is that not common where you are? Where I'm from there have been ad campaigns with stories that go on for years (not that they quite match up to this work of art)
American commercials are fucking trash 90% of the time lol.
