(Hospital 16) Thai anyone?

When I started to translate / sub this clip, I thought this guy, Heipo, was just some asshole comedian. Upon a little research here's what I found about Heipo;
*He owns an entertainment production company
*According to Matsumoto, Heipo is "super" wealthy. His income is easily more than that of chief producer of Gaki No Tuskai series.
*He has appeared on many of "Gaki No Tsukai" TV shows.

I guess this guy's M.O. is to be as blatantly rude as possible which, seems to work for some people. Just not my cup of tea.

2 things.
1) gr on Veoh for making me install their thing on my comp to watch your work
2) Wow never knew Heipo was so rich. I always thought he was the gutless, weak and stupid guy on GnT.

I always wondered if the Heipo thing was an act. He always seemed like a perverted, cowardly jerk to me.

The whole Heipo thing references previous shows where he acts perversely towards female celebs and asks the Gaki team to help patch things up. Much of the same thing happens.

Heipo is the director of the show I think. They bring him in because (in previous skits) he has no idea how to treat women. He's also overreacts to everything and is a huge scaredy cat. I don't think rude is quite the right word because when he appears on Gaki skits he's always the one abused by the rest of the members. If you watched the 24 hour tag (on Hulu now) the Gaki members completely manhandle him and throw pie in his face.

LOL! o yeh i remember the 24hour tag. Heipo messes up quite a few times in that show LOL. Yeh i always thought hes the scaredy cat. For example in Matsumoto's haunted house bit. He comes out to scare him but only to get scared himself.

I think part of the joke is that Heipo does perverted things to girls and then writes an "apology" letter. But the letter always ends up with him trying to justify his actions by calling the woman a slut and gold digger.

Ding ding ding.. you guys are correct. That was one of Heipo's skit. And, all the women that were in the skit are all famous too.
I think the idea behind it is the fact that he has no social skill and just a weirdo in general. But, he seems genuinely wanted to have a relationship with the women (although his perverted desire tends to take over).

and, speaking that direct in Japanese culture is a bit daring. Hence, the irony of "humor" lies in the fact that Heipo breaks the taboo. So, he looked more stupid in Japanese culture than to come of as "rude" in the eye of American culture.

Yes heipo is the director of the show.

Thanks for the sub! cant wait for part 17 to see what they was looking at the end =D

Oh, I don't know, that was pretty funny I thought. "Climbing the career ladder with only her boobs" made me literally LOL (a bit like Matsumoto).

Cheers Shibata, many thanks for the sub.

though i must say, Megumi is quite cute and hot and well endowed.
It is just me or are they giving Hamada a lot of freeroom to laugh and giving him props. Its as if hes getting special treatment.

Man, everyones scared of hamada XD!

he may put up with bullshit, but just know. he will ALWAYS get you back lols.

There actually were previous GNT episodes i beleive dedicated to setting heipo up with women.

(yes he was perverted, rude and the apology letter sucked and the women got more pissed...)

but yer, i am 89% sure it's a part of his act thing.

Go on youtube and search something along the lines of "Super Pervert Heipo"

I figure this will interest those who have been coming to this blog.

The Newspaper Agency batsu game has ten subbed parts on You Tube (not by me).

Why does the video say preview 5:00 of 10:00?

It says Muay Thai kick, but I didn't see any of that, it just ends at the 5 min mark for me...

Dale, thats because in order for you to watch the entire thing on Veoh, you have to install their software onto your computer. Just go to youtube and find the clips

That was hilarious. I know Heipo was "insulting" Megumi, but how did she keep a straight face throughout?

James said...

How do any of those people keep straight faces through these things? You see a few crack up here and there, but I don't think I would survive as long as some of those extras do.

I pity fujiwara who keeps standing in the back trying to hold back his laughter. He's sucha cute guy lols.

and I rmb Heipo from previous batsu games. He's always the one getting bullied. haha but he's also funny :D

anyone knows the full name of megumi?? she is beautiful. O_O

According to Wikipedia, Heipo's real name is Toshihide Saitō and he works as both set designer and assistant director of the show.
