Synopsis

In 2014, Microsoft Japan commissioned Manabu Himeda to create a web commercial for their Windows 2 in 1 PCs. In the musically-driven performance, Himeda acts out choreographed movements in real time to interact with an animated video he created that is being projected on the wall behind him.

If this isn't perfect product advertisement, then I don't know what is. Welcome to the weird side of MAL, probably not your first time down here, isn't it? In this feature, we have an advert for Microsoft Japan's Windows 2 in 1 PCs, which stars the creator dancing to a song that's accompanied by an animated video that's been projected onto a wall behind him. Maybe Himeda is showing off the power and capacity of what the 2 in 1 PCs has to offer in order to create the animated video in MS Paint, or maybe his family is held hostage at gunpoint by Microsoft and is forcedto dance whilst being humiliated? Who knows. It's weird, and I'm shit at drawing, so I won't bother buying the product.

One has not seen good adverts until they know Japan. Probably one of the most eccentric countries in the world when it comes to how silly one can create something of artistic value. This "Windows Tablet Song" is just another one in the collection. You know what, I was expecting weirder if I am honest. But this still manages to satisfy the unorthodox methods commonly used in Japanese adverts to engage not just the home audience, but literally any human who happens to come across this. The trick here? Visual psychedelics. It works as a commercial, that's all it needs to do. "Time to get Windows 11 now"
