Here's the ad for Pizza-La's new "Cream gratin pizza with crab and shrimp."
"Talent" Mari Sekine (center in picture above) is the main character of the commercial. Sekine is a daughter of the famous "talent" (also comedian), Tsutomu Sekine, who is a fluent English speaker, and appears on various TV programs such as "1 okunin no daishitsumon!? Waratte koraete!" (Questions from 100 million people?! Laugh and stifle laughter!) and "ZIP!"
Responses for the commercial are "This is the best commercial ever," "It's so funny! How is it for you?" and so on.

Famous talento...fluent English speaker? Who cares!

Picture looks like it was shot straight off the tube, on a distorted flat screen.

None of this folly will make an extraordinarily lousy pizza, better.

¥3600 for a large, what a scam!

I saw this commercial for the first time the other day (haven't turned on my TV in nearly half a year), and it is not AT ALL funny or interesting. They pull the same kind of ad all the time, be it crab or 'ebi-mayo'. To be frank, Japanese commercials in general are really sucking of late.

This CM is not as good as the Puccho CM with AKB48 that comes after it.

I couldn't stop laughing. When famous talent dance like a crab with a funny song I wet myself again and again. This commercial gives more and more meaning to my life.

Ugh, is it JT's goal to make me hate Japan?
anglootaku
Cute, though it looks very 80s ^_^

seafood pizza, could be good.
UncleBudah
Another useless fact!

"seafood pizza, could be good."
How much do you want to bet there's corn on it?
Serrano
smitty is right, there IS corn on it! But that doesn't mean it's not good!
Serrano
Anyway, you can always say "corn nuki" if you really hate corn that much!
Mirai Hayashi
I may be speaking for myself but its not that I hate corn, but there are some things that really don't belong on a pizza like mayonnaise, egg plant, tuna, nori (dried sea weed), and diced potatoes just to name a few.
MaboDofuIsSpicy
Try ordering a plain corn topping Pizza from them. They will gladly do it.

Why is a commercial for Pizza-La that has been around for a year the 'commercial of the week'?
Mirai Hayashi
that's the mystery of JT...they seem to pull thing out of a hat without rhyme or reason.

I love this tv cm, but sorry, Pizza La, not my choice for good pizza here on the J islands.
