Retro Japanese Shopping Center Ad
Shopping Space Mon (1980s)
Globetrotting time again! This is just a short little '80s Japanese shopping center TV commercial. Kind of weird, lol.It has a very spartan look and sound to it, but I kind of dig the vibe. You might have to watch it a few times to get a feel for it, cuz it goes by fast. Wish it was longer, though, and that it showed the actual shopping center itself. But oh well.

Yeah...I'm feeling this. Almost seems like a thing you'd see in some futuristic sci-fi film.
Japanese ads are quite hard to get into the first time around, a majority produced in later years tend to be only 15 seconds long at most, with only a few that managed to get into the 30 second or minute-long category.
From the same YouTube user, here's a few more interesting ads...
