This was a wild video. One summer right around my 25th birthday my weeb ass decided to go teach English to Japanese people in Japan (how I figured out that I want nothing to do with living in Japan). This song had just came out like 2 months prior and pretty much the only form of communication I had

outside of the all english speaking building I lived in (because Japan is racist and some places don't rent to foreigners) was PPAP. Most young people knew the song and would try their best to help you out if you sang it with them.
