Amazing.

Never would I have imagined that Softbank would cram so much crazy into a commercial. I mean, they already had their talking dog, Otousan. But now they've added famed movie director and fellow Japanophile Quentin Tarantino, a speakerphone Otousan (must have!), and some bad Japanese. Love it. I love it, Softbank.

Quentin gets a "come home" call from the wifey, which is broadcast over Otousan-speaker. Love that.

The family calls him Tara-chan. Love that.

Tara-chan does crazy-assed kung-fu moves. Otousan is not impressed. Love that.

And can we get back to the best part? I need that Otousan speaker attachment thing. I will acquire this and take calls for no reason. I'll call everyone. When they answer, it will be like I have my own talking dog.
