[omgitsskyandces]

that Nevil dude sounds like that dude from ANTM (America's next top model)

[krazy45cat]

Thanks pretty Funny !

[goyangiwolf]

I found this funny. I will be teaching in India in June. I really hope this doesn't happen to me.

[boncku]

@goyangiwolf Hello, I'm sure you'll enjoy your assignment in India. However, be prepared for anything; if "this doesn't happen", something else will happen. Isn't that what we've in this series? Good Luck!

[OhMySavy]

LOL so cheesy.

.... MUST WATCH MORE

[MayorMichaelShell]

Very funny!



[GLMnumber9]

lol This is the corniest shit I've ever seen. Love it.

[MrJohnBeelicker]

"If we didn't care we'd teach them french" Best line ever.

[FishingtonBurpPuzzle]

Yeah. I can believe this crap is real life.

[harolddoza]

Today I have decided to show this web series in my EFL (English as a Foreing Language) classes, Do you think it is a good idea? I will find out pretty soon.

[joshuatravels2684]

Lol I love this video! I can't imagion what a 1st day teaching abroad is like. I hope I get to, would love to do this someday! Great Job!

[minazumi]

Great series :)

[fjas1000]

I admire you guys for getting together the resources to make a live action show. Here's my one-man attempt via Xtranormal. watch?v=n1rYIhAFGXk

[Mikeybetts]

i wanna go to japan to learn to tame ninjas

and sell them as pets... or am i thinking of gimps?

[Melki]

Every moment of my life is a first - Thats Right! thank you thank you, glad I bumped to this video, this phrase is going to change my life.

[pvrhye]

I real teacher wouldn't decry a new teacher. We treasure them as it increases the likelihood of a break period.

[NaturalBeauty321]

*LOVE* it! Already subscribed *sighhhh*

[flassero]

so bored

[Kitkat137]

Love it!

[SplitBullets]

yea! lets have a BS day!

[Kronos295K]

Love this series!

[Loonitic11]

As an aspiring English teacher, i found this hilarious.

[Ziiiv]

0:18

She said "children" not "students".

[BlueKazuki]

5 people...hit the 'I dislike this' button. How about that...

[SteveHakk]

thanks for these! I just found them and watched everything you had... Keep 'em coming! I am a teacher in Sendai and they made me laugh.

[nisbahmumtaz909]

Be Yes...

Homonym of BS.

[Thebadcommenter]

Berurfry LMAO!!!

[bundangbear]

After 10 years of teaching ESL in Asia, this is so realistic it's scary.

There's the young jerk Kellerman, the older jerk Mark, the mean woman teacher, and the one seeking to find his inner Yamato spirit. Priceless!

[TheMikecoleman]

LOL

[MightyBrainChild]

This is awesome :D "if we didn't care, we would teach them... French..." aha

[skayloss]

@MightyBrainChild they should french is less used cuz you need a brain to speak it

[MightyBrainChild]

@skayloss well yeah, but the reason why it's funny is because its just such an off the hand comment.

[DracheN0504]

5 People don't like english

[BushidoDevildog]

The actor playing Mark looks like L. Ron Hubbard, whom Johnathan refers to later in the video (e.g. "...a narcissistic nut bag" ;-)

[yousefamar]

Be Yes = B.S.

[lejonzx]

If this was real man I wouldn't wonder why japan's english sucks.

[untmdsprt]

@lejonzx ROFL, it is real. The teaching requirements are to be a native English speaker and have a 4 year degree in anything. Students only practice English maybe an hour out of the week. Those kids that are only half Japanese are better in English because of the constant exposure to the language from one parent. People don't understand the concept that you have to have constant exposure to a language. I watch Japanese TV all the time, and my Japanese is getting better.

[lejonzx]

@untmdsprt Seriously?.. If i was a japanese parent with a child in one of these schools I would seriously be worried. Yea I watch jap stuff too and can more or less understand and talk in it. But can't read.

[untmdsprt]

@lejonzx The Japanese govt sets the rules. Being in the jr or sr high schools is even worse because the Japanese teachers there have no clue of how to teach conversational English, and you're treated like a glorified CD player. Some would even ask me Eng grammar questions and then look at me like I'm the stupidest person on earth when I have no idea how to explain. I stopped that nonsense by asking them Japanese grammar questions and gave them that same look when they couldn't answer.

[makidude]

"If we did not care, we would teach them French!" I lol'd

[kalium19]

hey isn't that dude Johnathan Sherr, the guy from My Darling is a Gaikokujin?

I watched it yesterday...I didn't get loads of laughter as I was expecting, but it was a great Japanese language learning experience :)

[misterrbrown]

Production Value is quite good. Could speed up the editing a bit.

[Chilly296]

"I'm still not receiving your lesson plans on time" lmao !! man, i heard many bosses say that many times... classic!

[ca280491]

hey i seak french and i'm offended <.<

[ca280491]

@ca280491 speak

[Kameleonic]

Hate to put a downer on it, but even though it's a parody, it's quite unrealistic! Anyone who has taught in varied situations in Japan for a longer period of time will tell you the same.

Not to mention, even as just a comedy, it's not funny at all.

Small things please....;)

[tokiobunniprodigy]

AWESOME - The only word to describe this series!!

[RaimiiChan]

Awesome!!!!

[BitSlash]

E.S.S.N. - Epic Series Starts Now

[stephy379]

hehehehhe so funny!

[SatoTM2]

narcissistic nut bag lol

[dandelionwebshow2000]

Be Yes : BS = Bull .. yea you know ;) LMAO XD

[SatoTM2]

@dandelionwebshow2000 bullcrap!

[UnamedKing]

XD I remembered my non-japanese English teachers back in japan XD They were kewl!! What was fun is that they all had stories to tell :D

[lenin1928]

Yes We Can rip off Barack Obama and our students at the same time.

[France731000]

english language sound so gay :S

[RockGodFuck]

@France731000 And this from an French guy ?? omg :D

[SmilingDepression]

@France731000 naaa

[triipge]

this show is good, reminds me a lot of "Arrested Development" and I love that show too <3 can't wait for more episodes

[Neiliooooo]

It sounds like she is saying lets have a B.S. (Bullshit) Day! :D

[shamille724]

Tony.

Hahaha....

先生は外国人

Interestingly, I came here via gimmeabreakman, but... I was so surprised to find Jonathan Sherr!! Awesome.

[beksblzr]

The intro by Ms. Sawaguchi was great! And I am still laughing at the name of the company! Isn't that what we all do to get through our day anyways! But I do have to agree with SilverGunZoO, the accidental boob touch does look awkward in live action.

[Zannypants666]

4:30 Whoever that is, shes gorgeous

[SilverGunZoO]

Exciting series, I subscribed and looking forward to the next episode, however there is only one thing I didn't liked, the kissxsis accidental-boobs-touching, and don't get me wrong I'm into that... in animation, coz it can be animated to look real, but in a real life video it's awkward, and mostly because it's hard to make it look real, it's hard to act, it's not a common thing, very improbable, and so my advice is to cut the sexual references based on anime.

[mimei]

lmao, excellent stuff :)

[Oty3d]

Great first video.

[spiro37]

cant...stop...watching...grabb­ing motion...mmmm.... :D

[ethos3419]

Really good, but can totally feel the scrubs influence. Hopefully it doesn't shadow it too much

[33Sammi32]

3:13 made me rofl

[rachelofpie]

'Thank you very much for your time. Let's have a B.S. day!'

[ArtAnime5]

:D that was so funny. Can't wait for the next epiosde!

[xiongmao07]

love the concept! がんば！

[Arcanewhim]

Awesome! Hope more are coming :)

[Drower]

Accidently grabbing her breasts, what is he, and anime character?

[SilverGunZoO]

@Drower Yea that's what I thought too (w)

[Sadude13]

LOVE IT

[007Aroma]

So funny video:-)

I can't wait until the next episode!

[greytoofast]

Vely Nice! Im enjoyed it vely much!

[greytoofast]

Velly Nice!!

[ciccarello]

this should be interesting :)

[melleighmeimellow]

I loved it! I can't wait for the next episode! Good job, guys.

[nielswolfgang]

ROFL! If we did not care, we would teach them french.

[jcamcinnis]

Encore! Encore! Encore!

[linnahj]

This is so funny! Everything about it; the concept,the music, the timing, the acting......looking forward to more! more!

[buck22dblaze]

Looking forward to the next episode.

[naji53]

Been there...and thought the job needed to be serialized in comedic form. I'm a little jealous that you did it before me, but kudos to you. It's really well done.

I could do without the whole "anime acccidental boob grab" though. It's a little too expected and cliche for my tastes.

[shuumatsu]

This is so cute! Looking forward to future episodes, for sure. ^^

[markeedragon]

Excellent video. I liked it so I subscribed. :)

[Gimmeaflakeman]

Great job!

[shazzgasm]

Have a B.S. day!

[dazzledog]

BEYES!

[plaeski]

This is completely awesome. But they're missing one important piece of the eikaiwa puzzle, a group of guys discussing where they are going to pick up/picked up Japanese chicks.

[pecan28]

love it! Can't wait to see more!

[NagoyaBlueWolf]

i love that - see the word and "feel" !!
