  • Cool

  • love iit lmao

  • Thanks. A great series! Teachers can learn a lot and change their attitudes, and be useful teachers!! And I feel a new window has opened up before me!!!

  • were can i get a copy of the ninja DVD?

  • This series works. How long has it been around? Is it on tv too?

  • Great series :)

  • Am I the only one who doesn't like the idea of that main teacher character beeing quite a copy of what JD from Scrubs was ? Walking the hallways with his backpack on him, thinking with a narators voice and telling people the meaning of what's going on and the lesson you should learn... This series really takes up the idea of a scrubs sitcom...

  • I love the ninja dude and the grumpy ass british teacher xD

  • the 10 people that hit dislike are probably japanese lol this is a comedy its about the teacher not the students or the country im sure teachers deal with this even in america

  • Such was my life the first 3 years here. This is too funny, I have worked with all of these people at some time.

  • English people are ugly.

    the only decent person was the Asian.

  • @TheSunmanho which one? lolol

  • @solidiquis1

    the lady secretary! or do you think I'm gay????

  • though i must note that the sound has a small issue...that it dips into moments of complete/utter silence when there should be some kind of sound there, the stark silence sounds very unnatural and is very noticable. it is especially obvious in the opening monologue where the girl is making the faces.

  • this is EXTREMELY well produced (editing, sound, lighting, etc.) And I love the premise (spot on as i am a teacher in korea). But if you want any constructive criticism, the writing is lacking here. The 'life lessons' and 'philosophy tidbits' the narrator provides feel very forced, and are severely wanting in originality. and the Zen Guru character just seems really unrelated to the rest of the show, just a lazy insertion of comic relief. I will keep watching though.

  • she's so hot.

  • i really like this...good work guys...

  • Is it just me, or does the narrator's voice sound like a computer?

  • these are great!

  • Soup Opera? Lols! :P XD

  • I teach in Korea, but this is spot on for over here too. Really well done.

  • Finally some different type of comedy!! very good job.!

  • Olá Amigo gostei do seu canal, e já me inscrevi

  • Really nice show. Japanese subtitles are great

  • good show i had learn something funny!!

  • Great show!

  • Love the show -- I have to say, one of the things that draws me in is the lack of crass language. The only thing is, I wish I knew the main character better, but I guess he'll get fleshed out as the series progresses.

  • I enjoy the show!!!! the old teacher is using market leader ! hahahaha

  • I enjoy the show!!!!

  • Here's my freebie for you:

    The one thing this series is missing is the owner of the school, the real boss man who comes rarely but makes everyone tremble, who wears an impeccable suit and claims his mission "is to bring English to the Japanese people," but can't speak a word of English himself and makes the manager woman translate. We had one that was pure Yakuza. I mean, he was missing a pinkie!

  • @bundangbear 100%!

  • Nice stuff!!! Keep it up!!

  • NUGGET OF WISDOM

  • It's nice to have something like this to watch after a long day of ALT work.

  • 0:54 Soup opera?

  • This show is about as risque as a level 1 lesson. You have to be the most boring English teachers in Japan EVER!

  • My teacher of teacher said that the first thing a teacher should have was the patience.

  • @tomoko96962000 That's key, second is: to like teaching.

  • more more more!

  • what did he say? efl ego?

  • great show guys

  • wow this is amazingly well put together compared to most shows on youtube!!

  • Great series! I'll be waiting for the next episodes. I'd love to become an english teacher in Japan so I felt compelled to watch this.

  • GOD DAMN YOUR HOT

  • @peruface

    thanks!

  • I didn't see this in my subscription box..

  • This show is GREAT! Everything's so original!

    Keep 'em coming :D

  • This show is GREAT! Everything's so original!

    Keep 'em coming! :D

  • Hey guys, if it's possible, please put a subtitle in english on the next videos. This will help a lot, cause it's hard to me to understand what the britsh teacher says. Loving the videos!

  • Fantastic:)

  • Love it thanks, cant wait for the new episode.

  • yay!!! banzai!!!! I like this series. but but but it does takes time to release another new episodes

  • Don't get me wrong, I love this series, but if you guys are gonna post them more than one week apart from one another, they need to be longer.

  • Again, awesome episode. Best YT series I've ever seen. I even deactivate Adblock Plus on your video, hope it helps you to earn some money.

  • A mini-series with great potential I say :D

    I'm getting hooked, so simple yet so fun to watch ^^

  • Loving it. Keep em coming.

  • This is a great series. That was the first time I have heard a Brit on YouTube, in Japan use the word 'wanker.' Thumbs up just for that. We Brits love using that word...LOL!

  • Hahaha, so good

  • this is too short T^T

  • Episode 4 comes out on Oct. 30th!

  • @englishseries maybe you can put a preview on what will happen on next episode!

  • @englishseries CANT WAIT! :D

  • I love when Ashley puts Neville down. Like when she called him a fruit loop in the last episode. =D

  • Love all the Ninja stuff and the quotes about the windows and having faith.

  • It really IS similar to Modern Family and also The Office, and in my opinion, that's why it's relevant and fun...I love the way it flows, so funny! Neville is very insightful and Ashley reminds me of Angela from the Office.

    Love the series - Keep up the good work, looking forward to the next!

  • OK , I' m a bit mystified by all the positive comments here.

    The start is so close to Modern Family you'd better hope their lawyers don't see it.

    Or is it Arrested Development I'm thinking about.....

    Anyway this is clearly highly influenced by those two shows.

    Unfortunately the writing here is extremely poor. Its almost embarrassing to watch the whole way through.

    I guess if your target demographic is confined to "English Teachers in Japan" then its OK . But if not find some new writers.

  • @jtargetmarket Really? I was thinking more along the lines of a completely 4th wall The Office with the whole, almost closing the school conflict and then quirky characters. But I see what you mean by similar to Arrested too.

  • Comment removed

  • 0:56 Let's Tee!. Ha ha! Gotta love Mark.

  • This series is awesome! Can't wait until the next episode :)

  • I think I'm addicted!! Best line: "When one door closes, open a window."...LOVE IT!!

  • i am really digging this series

  • <3 it! but the episodes are soooo short and rare! I know there must be a huge work in this, because the quality is excellent, but could you make the episodes maybe longer? ^.^y

  • this is great stuff. I'm glad i found it

  • Interesting story and beautiful actresses ^_^

  • good show

  • good stuff

  • Lovin' it! Keep it coming!

  • haha the austarlian guy reminds me of "the silly old dude" from the youtube channel: youtube.com/thejapanchanneldco­m. good stuff

  • @BeltlessTrenchcoat

    Yes, that is one fine looking man!

    :-D

  • @TheJapanChannelDcom hahaha. you're the man.

  • I'm enjoying the series so far. There is definitely enough content to expand this out into a 24 minutes show. With a 5-6 minute run, it really only leaves enough time for plot and a small amount of scenes intended for humor.

    Like a few others said though, there are times when shows quality is kind of apparent, but you guys are doing great working with what you have so far. The show can only get better after all, there's no such thing as perfect from the get go. I look forward to more.

  • Pretty good! Will subscribe. :D I kinda agree that the acting isn't super great... but then I'm sure it will get better as everyone gets more experienced. :)

  • Another wonderful show! I love this series guys :) Please keep it going!

  • I love this it's so funny my favorite character is Nevil but my favorit line is still from the first episode where Ms. Sawaguchi says "if we didn't care we would teach them french" so so funny

  • Very disappointing third episode.

    The production is still good but the storyline has become banal (with non-sequiturs and plot holes appearing from nowhere) and the acting from some characters is so bad it's distracting to the extreme.

    Plus, we're now seeing adverts popping up during the episode and not just at the beginning and end. Very annoying!

    A shame. The first two episodes showed promise but this one really does dip.

  • Good job. I like the fact that there is a show about this! Rock on. Also, please more Japanese would be nice, like the scene you had of him getting in the elevator was great.

  • 最後に出てきた人が気になる~!!!誰だろう~??早く続きが見­たい~!!!(*^^)v

  • I'm just a student but I love this series! Watched one episode and thought it was funny

  • I like the idea of showing what the life of a teacher is like in Japan. I have watched plenty of youtube videos showing the challenges of working, and living in Japan. It is a great idea to make a series out of it. Thumbs up.

  • I'm really enjoying these, hope we see a lot more.

  • Love this series. Very well done. Particularly love the name of the school: Be Yes - very Engrish like.

  • 2:57 i want his hoddie

  • lol

  • this series is really awesome! wish the episodes were longer but overall an awesome show!

  • love the series but wish they are 10 min vids instead

  • That girl did the spa tour on Tokyo Eye! Man thats been bugging me for ages, where I know her from.

    Series is good, I've been surpiised impressed at the quality throughout.

  • Oh my gawd, he was wearing crocks. Cripes the guy is crazy...

  • This show is amazing! I hope there will be a season 2 in the works!!

  • I love these skits ! :)

  • U SHOULD MAKE THE VIDEO EVRYWEEK >_<!!!! IS SO DAMN AWSOME!!!!!!

  • "It only means something if you want it to" Fav

  • Awesome can't wait to see more :)

  • I wish my quizzes were that easy lol

  • it seems like this could be the teaching version of "scrubs"

    tom needs a Turk

  • I'm waiting for the next episode... It's so much fun watching!

  • Well at least its keeping my attention to keep watching. Keep making more!

  • this is much better than most crap thats on tv lol keep it up!

  • Glad you guys like it! Any favorite scenes/lines?

  • @englishseries I'd love to see more scenes involving classrooms, students and stuff that you actually teach. Love the episode btw!

  • @englishseries

    I really liked "His EFL ego wouldn't fit through that door," and "I guess now it's my turn to have faith." Neville's "nugget(s) of wisdom" are always fun.

  • @englishseries Pretty much anything Neville says makes me smile. You guys have really nailed his character and he really sets the series tone of being a little off-kilter and not necessarily a reflection of ZOMG THE GRITTY REALITTY OF ENGLISH TEACHGNIGGIN

  • @englishseries All of Mark's scenes have been great :)

  • @englishseries "I guess now it's my turn to have faith."

  • @englishseries 3.45'' "now its my turn to have faith"

    GREAT LINE! GREAT SCENE!

  • i'm rooting for eyeglass girl and ninja/water can guy...

    oohh..the new guy robert looks...obnoxious..

  • Even if I could be a teacher at anything, I can't be an English teacher in Japan because I'm not an English native speaker. T_T Even though my English is damn awesome! ;P

  • @MurdocLC Do you have to be a native speaker? why?

  • @firedevlin I think it makes a ton of difference if you are and aren't.

  • @MurdocLC omg Do not think you were great. English is not difficult to learn, and I bet your pronunciation is terrible ;)

  • @RockGodFuck Were? With my comment? I mean in general I'm great. English isn't hard to learn no, for Europeans and such. But for Asians it can be damn hard. And for Swedish people too. I learned it without problems yet I hardly know any of the grammar rules, nor in Swedish. I just know the language from TV and games and of course school too, but I didn't try hard at all to get any good grades.

    Sorry, got rambling there. And my pronunciation is my strongest side with English. It's awesome.

  • @RockGodFuck And I'm not afraid to brag about it cause I know I'm good and I hardly brag about anything, having a very low self confidence. Which is why I get nervous and shy in some cases and can't use my "best English". -_-

  • @MurdocLC you won't fit into japan with this attitudes :P

  • Comment removed

  • @RockGodFuck Uuh... Haha. XD I'll fit just fine in Japan cause I have the right attitude and likeness with Japanese people.. Go insult people on the same level as you. Both mentally and grammatically. Pwned!

  • @MurdocLC Omg you really don't get it, right ?

    "my English is damn awesome! ;P" and 得意ではない <-- typical Japanese

    will never fit.

    I also never claimed to be very good in english;)

    貴方は日本語おわからない。

  • @RockGodFuck ... No cause I don't get people SPEAKING OUT OF THEIR ASSES. Are you done getting pwned yet?

  • @MurdocLC

    pwnedは英語でわありません、でも がんばってください。 ;)

    

  • @RockGodFuck ww.youtube.com/watch?v=McAeQiL­mEYU (last comment cause I'm not a jerk who talks about unrelated shit under a good video)

  • @MurdocLC didn't get what i talked about heh ?

    Learn japanese if you are soo great ;)

  • @RockGodFuck You're the one who's attitude seems wrong. Like the kind of gaijin who's being elitist towards other gaijin, what the hell is this "you won't fit in Japan" thing you're pulling just because a guy mentioned he felt confident of a foreign language?

    murdoc and I both happen to be Swedish, you're German and don't seem to be living in Japan (already), so that makes three of us who would have a shits hard time finding a job in Japan anyway.

  • @Mirachu omg you didn't get the joke, too ???

    What's wrong with you ?

    I was kidding, becouse of a typical japanese attitue of being polite and never say "I am good in ....."

    Just a stereotype joke.

    He even got this wrong, too ;)

    I am not gaijin vs gaijin, we are all in the same team ;)

  • @MurdocLC stupid but true.. even tho they really used to take any idiot from the streets as long as he was a native speaker =/

  • love'it!

  • only bad thing about the series is the episodes are so short :'(

  • Love it ! Keep it up please !

  • 3:07 looks like hes about to fart haha

  • "my dvd-ninja says...." lol xD i love the series~

  • This series is really good - please, please, please keep it up ^^

  • Everything is done meticulously well in this series. Looking forward to the next!

  • definitly one of the best shows I've ever seen on youtube.

  • "I've been here 15 years... Im your supervisor... Why did I have to find out about all this with that other bunch of wankers?!... Oh he can't understand what I'm saying"

    "I don't understand"

    LOL

  • absolutely adore this series! :D

  • Oh I think I don't like the new guy already, I mean come on who in their serious minds wears Crocs for real...

  • Fantastic!!!!

  • Btw there's a mistake in the subtitles at 0:59, it's written "soup". It should be written "soap".

  • Fantastic!

  • Are we feng shuiing?

  • Keep up the good work, you'll be the next huge series at this rate.

  • when he crosses his arms it's like he is resting them on his gut, lol.
