This guy sounds like he's trying so hard not to cry

They can try to erase the past. They cannot silence the truth

he's either dying inside, or trying to hide how much he loves Miku.

0:44 *C H O K E Y O S H I*

He's speaking english, and I can understand him, but at the same time he just doesn't sound human.

HAVE SOME FUN WITH MIKU

Whoever filmed the camera angles on Scott's face needs a raise.

He sounds like he’s trying to do an impression of an English guy doing an impression of a Japanese person trying to speak English

he looks like he's on the verge of a mental breakdown

The editing is genius. Every commercial should have random, unnecessary close ups.

After learning that this ad was made to be weird/cringey, it makes it 10x better.

Is this the kind of mental breakdown Papa John had when he ate 40 pizzas and told a reporter that the Day of Reckoning was coming?

they out pizzad the hut

"Once your pizza is delivered, have some fun with Miku!" Domino's App rated 18+

I only here to offer my respect to Scott Oelkers. He may be gone but he will forever live on as President of Domino's Pizza in our heart.

The trumpet music The eye zoom The hand gestures The “have fun with miku” It’s beautiful

It’s very cute just like miku

“Pictures of miku very cool.” Idk why that’s funny to me

“The challenge was successfully carried out” God it’s so obvious a native Japanese speaker wrote this and I love it so much lol

THE CHALLENGE WAS SUCCESSFULLY CARRIED OUT

I love this he's talking like I right my essays

1:02 hide the pain

I’m a videographer for a marketing company in the US, and from an American standpoint, this video breaks pretty much every rule when it comes to composition, shot choice, transitions etc. But in Japan, it did outrageously well. So I guess my only question is: Who’s ready for Miku?

What's incredible about the bits where he talks about the Domino's crew (i.e. Vocalo-P, Eishi, Chokyoshi) is that, for the longest time, I thought he was naming well-known Vocaloid creators in Japan. He's just naming jobs. (ex. "chokyoshi" is "trainer", "furitsukeshi" [spelled incorrectly in the video] is "choreographer") And they just didn't translate them. This video is haunting in every aspect.

1:10 Sans

He sounds like he’s going to burst into tears at any second

My theory is that's he playing up the American stereotype on purpose to please the Japanese audience. "Amazing! Cool! Cute! Just like Miku!"

The way that it looks purposely edited to be a meme, but *that’s the original ad*

1:22 "It looks very cute, just like Miku" *Doorbell rings* I feel like that's the Japanese equivalent of 'FBI open up'.

1:44 "Point the *camwa* towards the pizza box"

Here from Nick.

If you didn't know this actually sold amazingly in Japan and the people loved it. So they dod a pretty good job, it was cringey but the money was where it's at.

"from the menu to the order it looks cute, like miku" smooth AF

Just a reminder that the Pokemon Sinnoh remakes are being created by the developers of this app, instead of Game Freak

I can finally understand why Nick Robinson flew to japan for this video. This is precious. This is the greatest video of all time, no doubt.

"Have some fun with miku" Me: Woah there

When people who work at dominos are master animators, musicians and programmers. Only in Japan.

"Have some fun with Miku" I'm still not over the fact he got me that far into the business deal without telling me he was going to say that

I can't express enough how thankful I am that you have preserved this godlike piece of art. It's perfect on so many levels: the zooms on his hands and brow, the artificial glitchy effects, the script, his delivery and beautiful smile, and the example social pizza camera photos. I must have watched it like a hundred times over the years and it still brings me to tears. Very cool, thank you. edit: btw it's 100% confirmed Scott is in on it. We love you Scott

such a cutie >~< oh and miku too of course

Why do they zoom into his forehead so much

i have never forgotten about this

I love that hatsune miku is said the exact same way and exact same tone each time

What's with the EXTREME close ups?

He is so uncomfortable like he never heard of that vocaloid thing and really just wants to do a boomer rant about kids these days

I came here after nick robbinson interviewed him

all "how do you do fellow kids" jokes aside, this is such an incredibly important staple of internet history that must be protected

I was silently chuckling throughout the video until 1:37 and I *lost it* The facial expression, the sudden hand gesture, the tone in the voice, the slight echo in the audio, the camera work, all of it That one simple 2 seconds of the video "And last but not least, the live performance!" just completely _made_ it *chef's kiss* beautiful, a true work of art.

1:25 this is the most uncomfortable I've ever seen a man

I come back here every month or so just to check that this pillar of the internet stays strong. Thank god that this masterpiece of human culture has stayed in pristine form.

1:03 the utter DESPAIR in this man's eyes...

1:02 is the way a kidnapper would display proof that he has captured your loved ones. Just imagine a video of your family bound and gagged instead of Hatsune Miku.

Lyrics: Hello everyone, I’m Scott, President of Dominos Pizza. Have you heard of Hatsune Miku? Today I would like to announce a new collaborative project featuring Hatsune Miku: Dominos App Featuring Hatsune Miku. Hatsune Miku exists in a software called Vocaloid. Vocaloid enables you to produce songs. A character named Hatsune Miku sings the songs you create. A great feature is you can create songs as you like. I knew our talented Dominos Pizza crew could work together and create great vocaloid songs. Bokaro-p, E-shi, Choukyou-shi, Furitsuke-shi, everyone! Amazing vocaloid songs have been created with the fantastic imagination of the crews from all over Japan. The challenge was successfully carried out, and this new collaborative app was produced. Based on Miku’s image, the Dominos app changes its appearance. A lot of music and illustrations produced by Dominos crew are here. From the menu to the order, it looks very cute: just like Miku. Once your pizza’s delivered, have some fun with Miku! It comes with a social camera function, and you can take various poses, pictures of Miku: Very cool. And last, but not least, the live performance! Start the pizza stage live and point the camera towards the pizza box, and the pizza box will turn into a live dancing venue. A live performance of Love for Night produced by Dominos crew! Here we go! *Miku sings* Let’s enjoy the rest of the performance, with the app!

THE WAY HE STRAIGHTENS HIS TIE AT THE BEGINNING LMAO

He’s speaking like this is a perfectly normal brand deal that everybody expected

The way the words barely roll of of his tongue is very unsettling. It sounds like he put the script through Google translate thousands of times and read it out after he drank 5 gallons of pure alcohol. "Very cool"

I died when he said “Pictures of Miku... very cool...”

I’m glad nick Robinson made his video and brought attention back to this. I remember when this was first making the rounds across forums and image boards back in the day and I nearly had an aneurism laughing so hard. This is like a real life Tim and Eric bit. I love it so much.

protect this man at all costs

1:36 I expected magical sparks to come out of his hand

Not all heroes wear capes. Not all heroes are the ones we deserve.

I'm still pissed off that Miku dominos never came to America.

Who is here after the new Nick Video?

The director : "get more close-ups of his eyes"

I cant imagine being in the studio and just saying ‘have some fun with miku’ in dead silence

the have some fun with miku part and his smile never get old

Man wants help he looks like he's being forced to read it

This just feels cursed but it's on a strangely different level of it.

the camera angles really make the video POP

The fact this sold amazingly well in Japan is just icing on the cake.

when you hear this man start the video off with "have you heard of Hatsune Miku", within the first 10 seconds, you know you're in for a treat!!!

"Sir, just keep following the teleprompter, we're almost done."

0:43 His parents must really hate Yoshi

KZfaq is the best for recommending me this after I watched Nick's latest video.

This is iconic. The camera zooming in on his eyes really emphasizes his desperation

1:03 I can quite confidently say he looks like he's offering sausage flavoured broccoli to young kids who don't like brocolli

recently rediscovered this gem of the internet...what a time to be alive

1:24 the way he akwardly smiles like he is held at gunpoint is halarious

Everything has been answered thanks to Nick Robinson and Scott

Were gonna miss you Scott.

Thank you for preserving history m8

What makes this even better is that this is filmed within 1 hour at their HQ

He says hatsune miku too many times, weird pauses, weird cuts towards his eyes, weird cut turns, and his face.... It’s all perfect

I know it's been said, but those close-ups radiate such KZfaq poop energy, and it's only accentuated by his unique inflection of phrases. Truly a commercial for the ages.

This is it The reason why we exist The reason why we humans evolve The reason why love exists The reason why almost every asteroid missed earth The reason why we are alive *This is it*

This is one of those rare videos that gets way better each time you see it

This man had no idea what he was talking about, he was just given a script, like a day to read it and understand everything and rolled along with it.

"No battle royale" - Steven Hawking

“Choke Yoshi”

Plot twist Scott was a vocaloid all along

“it looks very cute, just like Miku.“ Ok then-

I'm Scott, president of Scott.

i feel like he was the one guy that’s was like “hey, my niece watches anime, so i’m pretty much an expert on this”

Why did mysta send me here

This video is a masterpiece, the out of place host, the odd delivery, the weird shot of his eyes, fucking Hatsune Miku in Dominos. Everthing is weird and hilarious about this video.

The most ambitious cross over in history

Almost forgot to watch this today

You guys he is trying his absolute hardest to sell that app, and I've got to admire the hustle.

President of Dominos: wake up, it’s time to code hatsune miku into the app! Minimum wage developers: yes, Scott

I’m pretty sure this guy is trying to hold back laughter at every utterance of “Hatsune Miku”
