Here’s another video sub. It’s a show I’ve never done before, called "God Tongue".
It’s basically a late night variety show where they just do…whatever. It’s a variety show.
It’s hosted by manzai duo Ogi-Yahagi (Ogi Hiroaki and Yahagi Ken), and solo comedian, Gekidan Hitori.
This particular episode is a play-off of a popular show called "Gilgamesh Night" which used to air in the 90s.
They play "Oogiri", a popular game where some sort of topic or question is provided the host, and another group thinks up answers with the aim of making the most people laugh. This time, the topics are sex related or ‘erotic’, and so has been dubbed as Ero-oogiri.

Wait- saw an explanation on the blog.
Thanks if that was you[/quote:vhrpy5k5]
No problem. I translated some "adult" materials for an off-site translation firm that was trying to export Japanese urabon to America. Did it for a semi-yakuza firm in the mid 2000’s. Learned a lot of porn terms, didn’t watch any though, just translated boxes and made $100 a box.
Btw: I used to watch Gilgamesh Night when I visited Japan during my college years in the late 90’s. They had a lot of these shows on in the Osaka area too - "Girl’s File" with TKO and Ijiri Okada (pretty clean) and "Yoru Bijo" that had nudity just about every night and advertised for love hotels. My wife and I would watch it because Kaoru Sugita was on it and she would talk about the raunchiest shit and they would play Ashlee Simpson’s music while girls were stripping, lol. Those late night shows are one thing that should have never been forced off the TV. They were cheesy as hell.

Semi-Yakuza firm!? lol
That would’ve been somewhat intimidating/interesting.
Japanese TV used to be way more crazy as it is now. Actually it’s not really crazy anymore. Quite normal rather…
I remember seeing a video on youtube of a show featuring Downtown and a whole host of what were younger comedians back then, with the aim of getting upskirt shots of girls while making them do various stuff.

Yakuza aren’t so bad. They treat foreigners with respect (as far as I’ve seen), and they’ve calmed down considerably from the punch perm days of the 80’s. They make so much money off of illegal loans, soapland, porn, pachinko, and extortion that they don’t need to be mean. The town next to mine had their summer fireworks display financed by the local yakuza on the Oya’s birthday. As a disclamer, I did have to skip town after fooling around with the #3’s girlfriend. For the most part, though, they’ll buy you drinks just so you can teach them to cuss in English effectively.
One of my favorite shows in 2000 before they really started to clamp down was Neptune’s "ONep!" which consisted mainly of the "Nep-Nage," wherein Taizo would toss some girl for a panty or boob shot and then Horiken would make some lewd pronouncement after she hit the floor. It was such a fun show.

Your stories about your life in Japan and your encounters with the Yakuza are really interesting and funny, maybe you should start writing a blog.
Contemporary Japanese TV became so dull, especially when you hear おいし and かわい on nearly every damn show.
There he talks about his experience in Japan. One of the funniest readings I’ve had in my life ![/quote:29wtgtte]
Yeah, I taught college, HS, and MS in Japan and I was always asked about my dick because I’m 6’3" and a white dude. Suddenly going from speaking English to them to shouting, お前らいい加減にしろ！(omaera ii kagen ni shiro - or basically STFU) seems to put a damper in their questions. As to the kancho, I learned the ancient Chinese secret to that as well. If you’re an English teacher teaching kids and one kid gives you a kancho you grab the kid, hold him so his butt faces all the other kids and shout KANCHO HODAI~~! (all you can enema) and all the other kids will stab the kids rectum with their fingers until he hemmorages. No other kid will try it with you ever again.

Read your profile : "私は３３歳の男で、最近中年太りが始まって、恥ずかしいです。" Didn’t exactly knew, what i should think about that !
About Japan/Kancho : I’d like to do a semester abroad but I don’t think the students (about 18-24) would do Kancho with ma white arse. However, should this Kancho problem arise, I’ll be good thanks to your wisdom !

It means, "I’m a 33 year old guy, and lately have gotten a "middle aged beer belly" and it’s embarrassing"
Yeah, kancho isn’t a big deal if you’re not teaching kids.
