Ok stick of truth was funny but that basically one long South Park episode
Show me one example of good Japanese comedy

That's a screencap from a television show, not a video game.

That radio call in MGS3 about the cardboard box.
What was that show with the japanese hosts where they put people through obstacle courses? That was pretty funny
>>376465370OH! MY! GOD!
I can't even think of a Japanese movie I've seen that was funny.
>>376465138
Remember that one japanese show where they forced captured women to work as sex slaves?

>>376465370
There are plenty of examples, but Japanese comedy is only funny if you speak Japanese. The Japanese language is rich and vibrant, which allows for all sorts of creative wordplay that you'd never see in English.
I couldn't find a snippet of such an example, but in Ika Musume there was a scene where Eiko tried to speak English to a foreigner asking for directions. You'll never see this level of wordplay in western 'comedy'.
>>376466742
remember that time anon believed his wacky jav videos where tv shows

Remember the one where they murdered hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians after they promised them they'd be safe?
Really good one, easily one of my favorite

>>376467084
>The Japanese language is overly complex and backward. Most of it's comedy is from flubs in pronunciation.
>>376467589
Why does this look so awful
Japanese comedy is best when people are acting in an overexaggerated manner. Westerners could learn a lot from it, but instead they prefer to have people acting normal and boring. They need to be like this.

Wordplay is shit tier comedy but even so I'll say something as a ESL faggot. English is the fucking language of puns. Japanese is full of "it sounds similar so funny" whereas English can play with entendres, create double meanings on the fly and make the most obscure lampshading. And I'm sure I see this for the same reason you see it in Japanese: we're not natives.

Really? My favourite is the one where there's a stuck up girl who secretly is attracted to the oblivious male protagonist, and the male protagonist does something clumsily that is misunderstood as perverted and then he gets a nosebleed and is slapped so hard that he comically flies away into the distance

Japanese humor is always this:

Japanese comedy is typically complete garbage, and way too overreliant on over the top gags. There is literally nothing out of Japan that can even touch Seinfeld in the comedy department.
As for games, there isn't a single Japanese game as funny as Leisure Suit Larry 1-7 or Sam & Max Hit The Road.

Nobody can because none of us speak japanese and only watch anime
>>376465138
Monty Python alone is funnier than anything Japan has ever put out.
>>376470938
The party members in Dragon Age Origins are more memorable than any party members Japan has produced in the last 10 years.
Japanese comedy is either based on wordplay so autistic you have to come from a nation of autists to even consider it funny, or beating up stupid people. The latter is something so fundamentally a part of the human comedic experience that is almost awe inspiring how much they can make it unfunny. They have two specific artforms, Rakugo and Manzai, that deal in both of those subjects separately, and both are so bereft of mirth they make German comedy look funny.
>>376467084
The definition of weaboo right here.
Besides, >>376467626 blew you the fuck out. I say this as a English second language speaker, English is full of so much potential for puns and wordplay, it's hard even for a completely fluent person to grasp. It's all the synonyms and borrowed words. Makes for a hard, but rich language.

1 is the weakest, primarily because they don't fully embrace the comedy and Black Adder himself is portrayed as a sort of transient Mr. Bean.

Look you can debate all you want about eastern games being more mechanically sound than their western counterparts, to an extent I'd agree.
But do not sit there and try to tell me you find cringy ass Japanese writing with their cringy ass body language "funny"
"funny" in a way that absolutely no normal human being does the shit they do
>>376468785
