I'm... confused. LOL
It's a nice find, but I'm trying to figure out what exactly was
going on in that one.
Thanks for sharing Saint.

This one should go some way to explaining it.

Nice find, thanks Summat.
I still think that perhaps I need to learn Japanese.

Yeh, I kinda get what's going on and the message of the commercial,
maybe not completely but it's a good find nonetheless. Funny too.
Thanks Saint.

I lived in Japan and studied Japanese. I do get the gist of these
commercials (called CMs - commercial messages - in Japan) but not
necessarily 100% of what's being said. Here's a summary:
CM #1: A 52-year-old man, Masao Tanaka, says in the voiceover that
he doesn't understand women. Why are they so attracted to things
that are new, like new shopping centers (like the Fujimi Lalaport
mall being advertised)? He says he wishes he could become an "OL" -
another Japanese English acronym that stands for "office lady" - a
secretary or other woman works in an office. He wakes up a woman
after snoozing (or sneezing?) on a bench, and when he realizes it
after washing his face, he says something like "I've become a cute
girl!"
Ending tagline: (Let's go to) the more woman(ly?) Lalaport.
CM #2: In the first voiceover in the second (and third), Masao says
that he's turned into an OL in order to understand women. The woman
Masao is shopping with complains how shopping centers are the most
crowded when they first open for business, and she hates how there
are people lined/queued up everywhere. (She also gives Masao a
funny look when he/she calls her "okusan", which usually means
"ma'am"... a bit weird for a woman of about the same generation to
call her.) But then the lady sees a cafe she saw advertised on TV,
and she tells Masao to join her in the long line/queue to get in,
which surprises and confuses Masao.
Ending tagline: A woman lives in the moment. (Literally, "lives in
the now.")
CM #3 Masao is checking out how she looks with some clothes when a
young woman asks her which of the two similar-looking dresses she's
holding is cuter: a white one or a pink one. Masao gives it some
serious thought, and the other women impatiently says, "Tell me!"
So Masao chooses the white one. The young women says, "Yeah, I
thought I should probably go with the pink one. I'll take it!"
Masao is stunned that the woman had apparently already decided...
Tagline: Women are waiting for an answer/response.

No problem. By the way, minor mistake... Masao's name is Yamaha not
Tanaka.

No YAMADA. Curse you autocorrect...

Yeah ... what's with the two recent attempts at spamming with
misleading links? That's not a MTF Japanese commercial, but a weird
self-created news on an autopsy controversy.

I loved these commercials but all the links seem broken. Thankfully
someone upload the originally LaLaport commercial in high quality
