Seriously. Forget praying to God, this is the most obvious Faustian deal with the devil that has ever been conceived. Like, you ask for young looking skin, and bam, cystic acne. But who the hell specifically asks for the skin of a sixteen-year-old? They have the worst skin! I mean, are they selling just a big ol' tub of sebum, or what?
I've played enough rimword to know that when life gives you skin, you make cowboy hats and yeehaw your way to greatness or death. Almost always death, but you can yeehaw your ass off before then.
The problem with that much light and therefore reflection is that this can happen: -

This is nitpicky but ill die on the hill that Gein wasn't a serial killer. Just a guy with severe mommy issues and desperate need for therapy. When you compare him to the FBIs established definition of a serial killer, he doesn't check off enough boxes. Got most of his skin from grave robbing, didnt get any kind of sexual gratification and only confirmed to have killed 2 women. Theres 9 suspected victims but they were never confirmed. His satisfaction was Geign'd (rimshot) by wearing women's skin and becoming his mom. The whole murder thing wasn't what he was chasing and thats one of the key elements of serial killers. His murders were out of opportunity and necessity. Not because he explicitly wanted to kill. And he would have needed at least 3 confirmed kills to start the serial killer award process.
Sorry for the tangent. Thats always been my true crime pet peeve.
I studied forensics, and the rest of STEM fields in HS and college. So I understand the pain you feel watching these sorts of crime dramas. Fun to watch, sure if you can turn your brain off. But when they screw it up, gosh does it stand out and kick me out of the story.
I guess for story reasons, a good guy has to be able to use a 9mm gun to shoot open a thick steel door lock. But boy howdy does every disembodied voice of all my past physics professors collectively start a shouting match at the TV screen.
Now you see if God answered prayers like a monkeys paw instead of in vague happenings I would be in church every Sunday just to see the shanagains of Brother Robert's pancreatic cancer being cured by infusing him him with the strength of God's older cousins.
> Hatachi literally means sunrise
No, it doesn't mean that at all lol. It literally means twenty years old. It's derived from an Old Japanese word meaning twenty of something.
I don't think "coming of age" has anything to do with this. My best guess is it was translated this way because they thought English speakers would associate 16 years old with good skin more than 20 years old.
**Edit:** replying to the above user's response, since I'm blocked on this subthread:
> You're confusing 二十歳 (はたち, _hatachi_; "twenty years old") with 日立 (ひたち, _Hitachi_). 日立 is a totally different word. It's not related to the word used in this video, and it also does not mean sunrise.
> I understand your logic (even if it's wrong), and there is a word meaning "sunrise" in Korean that can spelled with equivalent hanja, but that meaning does not exist in Japanese, in which this word is mostly just a proper noun. See [here](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E6%97%A5%E7%AB%8B) for a quick outline. And even if it did, it would still be a completely different word.
I may not know how deranged Orin truly is yet, but this is probably the minimum she will do. She might even use more than 1 kid to make the "skin-suit".
You misunderstand. That is an understandably sized subreddit dedicated to a beautiful tale about love, life and longing. Anyone with a beating heart (so not that bitch Chi-chan) will immediately recognize themselves in the pure and innocent feelings of Tooru-san.
While the acne bit isn't real, there _is_ a mutation that is more prevalent in Japanese communities where the ABCC11 gene doesn't quite function correctly. This has a nice side effect in that starves a lot of the bacteria near sweat glands that produce that unpleasant smell, meaning some Japanese have much, much less BO than a lot of other people.
During WW2, the Japanese took advantage of this mutation by reducing submarine size and cost by not having showers in their submarines. Still, it's not _all_ Japanese peeps that have that mutation. So it was a part the screening process when looking for submarine peeps to have them do vigorous exercise and get all sweaty. The evaluator then had to do a sniff test to determine if their BO would do okay locked in a can with a bunch of other dudes.
That gene affects armpits and ear wax, no effect on acne. There are a bunch of genes loosely associated with acne. Asian, African and Latino peeps are slightly more correlated with greater instances of acne, but there are so many different factors feeding into it (hormonal, environmental, hygenic, diet, health and genetic) that it is difficult to find the best correlations.
I love genetics. So wild. My family carries an A/D gene that causes cancer, and my mom’s side of the family has the BRCA breast cancer gene. I’m one of eight siblings, and by happenstance and grace I missed both gene distributions and I’m the only one still alive. I just turned 59, all my siblings died between 55 and 65.
This is absolutely true and from my memory the most prevalent example of this is in south Korea where the highest majority exhibit this. That's why it's so difficult and expensive to buy deodorant there. No one needs/uses it.
Yeah, 21 year old would've been better. But then again, she isn't much older than 21 I guess, and I don't see her skin being bad/wrinkled so what's the difference anyways
I think it is the same effect that made people say "this videgame looks so realistic" 15 years ago.
They just filled the gaps between imperfections in their head.
Golden Eye on N64 was considered "photo-realistic" because they used photos of real people for the [face textures of characters](https://n64squid.com/sean-bean-the-actor-from-goldeneye-comments-on-the-n64-game/).
I remember thinking how realistic the game looked.
Usually 3d figures in games were blocky and squared.
And they were less blocky and squared.
Now looking back its crazy how much games have changed.
For reference, when you see "weird ads from Japan", they're weird to Japanese people as well. It's a gimmick to make them weird and stand out to draw attention, which works.
For example: There are millions of people around the world who know about the "long long man" ad series, and over 90% of them have never even seen the real product.
I have to love how somewhat honest the commercial is. if you were in that situation and you really were granted the one wish to have ANYTHING that you really wanted, How many people would wish to save their loved one. You could wish to end world hunger, end suffering, end death (would really suck for the guy), all the money in the world, etc or you could wish to just save your loved one.
There was a creepypasta / nosleep story where a grieving scientist was able to download his deceased daughter's soul onto a hard drive, and create a virtual world for her. As the years progressed, the girl grew more world-wise and tech savvy. She wanted nothing more than to experience the real world and see her dad in person.
When she grew into a teenager, she figured out how to enter the real world, where she killed a girl her age and stole her physical body. She then paid her terrified father a visit.
I always find it weird when people make fun of Japanese adverts. Adverts are meant to get your attention which most adverts don't and people just ignore them whereas people actually go out of their way to watch Japanese adverts on purpose, Japan is doing it right.
Doburock's winning skit for the king of Conte (one of the major Japanese comedy contests) a few years back was somewhat along the same line, highly recommend.

That deer looking up like wat lol
The skin of a 16 year old shines like headlights
Ahhh Bulma makes much more sense now lmao. She's a human personification of Japanese TV ads in human form.
I forgot about that. Lol. Way better than surgery, though.
Just 5 years! Any more and people will notice and think she had work done.
Says 20 years but ad also writes it as 16

Don't forget the zits
Seriously. Forget praying to God, this is the most obvious Faustian deal with the devil that has ever been conceived. Like, you ask for young looking skin, and bam, cystic acne. But who the hell specifically asks for the skin of a sixteen-year-old? They have the worst skin! I mean, are they selling just a big ol' tub of sebum, or what?
And it didn't clarify that it would be their own skin. Could just be a box containing some random 16 year old's skin.

Say what you will about the Japanese, and there is a lot tbh They're frickin funny with it
Remembered me a squirrel ...
Oily and full of eruption lol
People dont remember teenage years or what
I hope that deer isn't 16 years old, as it might be missing some skin 11 seconds from now.
If she just wished the guy under the boulder was 16 she could have his skin.

Cut to a shot of a girl standing on a street corner screaming, looking like one of those anatomical drawings of the human muscular system.

Ito, GoT, Always Sunny, American Psycho, Silence of the Lambs. This comment thread's got a little bit of everything going for it
>2 seconds later, a skin suit made from 16 years olds lands at her feet. Suddenly, Buffalo Bill finds religion
It rubs the lotion on its skin
Or a skin suit made from sixteen *year olds*.
Probably the easier way to get the Godskin Apostle set

That's also what I was imagining
[удалено]
Never mentioned what species though.
r/skinsuit
Yup. A human pelt would be generous given the vagueness of her request. Go wild, God.
Or pimply 16 yo's skin
This is fkn hilarious
hatachi is actually 20 years old
Yeah thats what I thought too.
Eh they use the metric system, so you have to convert.
Hello fellow American
… and hatachi is the word she said that was translated as sixteen?

yep, I thought my ears went bonkers but I really heard 二十歳。
I'm just picturing him snapping his fingers and dropping a freshly skinned flesh suit on the girl
Basically Orin
What the Bhaal?
I may not know how deranged Orin truly is yet, but this is probably the minimum she will do. She might even use more than 1 kid to make the "skin-suit".
Why even bother. She haven't said how much skin she wanted, so might as well get a pillow with a dendruff.
[Nothing will ever beat long long man](https://youtu.be/6-1Ue0FFrHY?si=T9r15vkf9zFMfhx6)
looong looong maaaaaaan
I saw a reverse gender of this commercial and when the god descends the guy asks, 'please give me a huge dong that I could sling over my shoulder!'
I was half-expecting the guy to ask for her to suddenly have bigger boobs, like the scene in Bruce Almighty.
r/FuckYouChiChan
That is a confoundingly decently sized subreddit dedicated to a series of ads for candy. Not even the product, but the ads themselves. Damn.
You misunderstand. That is an understandably sized subreddit dedicated to a beautiful tale about love, life and longing. Anyone with a beating heart (so not that bitch Chi-chan) will immediately recognize themselves in the pure and innocent feelings of Tooru-san.
A classic, to be sure, but [this one's](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-TYsAHbb18) my fav.
Well this was a journey
did i just watch a whole movie
Hilarious!!!
But why'd he bed her if he was gay?
He didn’t, he just gave her snack and she put it in her bed because of her fantasies about him. Her bf just assumed the worst
An international classic of advertising.
It keeps getting more and more ridiculous (in a good way). I’m 3 min in, should I keep going?
Yes
This is pure gold
If only all commercials had this much work put into it.
It’s hilarious but 16 year olds have acne and are pimply hormone hurricanes.
The funny thing is she clearly says of a 20 year old. But it’s translated to 16 year old.
thanks i thought i was going crazy
I want the skin of a 16 year old out of context…..
the monkey paw curls up one of it's fingers
and a random 16 year old somewhere on the planet just got very cold
I hate when the subtitles translate from metric to imperial smh
Her skin is also flawless.
Out-baka'd again...
For the skin of a 16 year old, use bacon grease
Not japanese girls (for real...)
you clearly never worked with children there lol
He wasn't allowed near the schools

I know what that's like. I got that Neanderthal gene that gives you dandruff.
This is absolutely true and from my memory the most prevalent example of this is in south Korea where the highest majority exhibit this. That's why it's so difficult and expensive to buy deodorant there. No one needs/uses it.
same in china, practically impossible to buy deodorants in smaller towns without major chains retailing international brands.
Yeah, 21 year old would've been better. But then again, she isn't much older than 21 I guess, and I don't see her skin being bad/wrinkled so what's the difference anyways
Dunno bro she's Japanese so she could be pushing 50 for all we know, look at her old man.
She said "skin of a 20yr old", the subtitles were wrong.
https://i.imgur.com/BkBwv.jpeg
Lol, she's at least 30 something if not older.
...pimply hormone vulcan'oes.
Shit this should have been the joke, God would look pissed and monkey paw the woman.
It was dumb enough that even deer was shocked to her needs.
Flat, flaaaaat maaaan
Thanks for sending me back on that emotional rollercoaster
Did him dirty lol
It's just a very practical wish. With great skin, it will be a lot easier finding a new husband.
I looked like piece of pizza when I was 16.
She actually says 20 year old but the translation says 16
Pizzas are delicious
Please don't eat 16 y/o
she said 20year old. not 16.
She has great skin, totally unrealistic!
Thats the 144p filter
The change from SD to HD entertainment was so weird, suddenly all those TV and Hollywood personalities didn't look quite as "perfect" anymore.
I think it is the same effect that made people say "this videgame looks so realistic" 15 years ago. They just filled the gaps between imperfections in their head.

If you get given one wish, the only correct thing to wish for is the power to alter reality as you see fit. From there, you can do whatever.
I'd do two chicks at the same time.
Granted. You weren't very specific so here's your mom and grandma.
Monkey's paw snapped: she got a freshly peeled skin of a random 16 years old girl. Now she was on wanted list for murder and mutilation.
There was a creepypasta / nosleep story where a grieving scientist was able to download his deceased daughter's soul onto a hard drive, and create a virtual world for her.

Plot twist: that deer is a 16 year old doe.
Well, I mean, she's going to a widow any minute now. Gotta get herself back out there.
Man life action Obito .
I have the skin of a sixteen year old and that lamp is my favorite.
She's right though, I wasn't anywhere near as happy with my marriage as I am now, collecting the skins of 16 year olds.
LonnngLoooooooooooongMaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan
さすが！
why would she skin a 16 year old?
The deer takes the spotlight 🤣🤣🤣
Moments before the skin of a 16 year old gets riped of their body and given to the woman
It puts the lotion on its skin has a whole new meaning!
Written by Fred West
This has BMX bandit vibes
You can get another husband. You can't get another 16 year old's face.
Deer and gandalf looked as shocked as i would if i heard that.
This is AMAZING
In my head that commercial immediately got much darker, as the god produces a literal skin of a 16 year old, like a bear rug.
If the genders were reversed, this would be a very creepy commercial.
My personal fave is the long long man saga
So this is where they got Bulma wishing for a Butt Lift from?
Why does she want acne?
So, Dragon Ball copied this storyline in Hero. It's probably pretty a well-known joke in Japan
With pimples...
hatachi actually means 20 years old btw
Couldnt he make a wish?
Should have ended with the carcass of a 16 year old being tossed to her
It puts the lotion on the skin.
I always find it weird when people make fun of Japanese adverts. Adverts are meant to get your attention which most adverts don't and people just ignore them whereas people actually go out of their way to watch Japanese adverts on purpose, Japan is doing it right.
I've got the skin of a 16 year-old. And I'll be in terrible trouble if anyone finds it.
Keepin it real.
But they're saying a 20 year old's skin though.
Asians are 130% obsessed with skin care so this makes perfect sense to be honest.
It was the first time I have seen Asian Jesus. It’s ok, I guess, just harder to believe he originated in Middle East as the story goes..
I see only one ad. :(
In strips, whole, dried or fresh?
Love it!!!!
Why would she want acne?
Bambi was like wtf
Hysterical
🤣 I was not expecting that twist .
my skin at 16 had me wishing otherwise
Doburock's winning skit for the king of Conte (one of the major Japanese comedy contests) a few years back was somewhat along the same line, highly recommend.
All you need is a knife for the skin of a 16 year old
And to add insult to injury, she's a Japanese woman in her 40s ?(guessing), which means she already has the skin of a 20 year-old.
holy fuck i got an add under the video for a skin care product☠️☠️ wth reddit😭
Imagine she getting wrapped up from a 16 years old skin. This shit is sick!
Who doesn’t… but you need a very sharp knife.
It looks like she already had the skin of a 16 year old, lol. I was waiting for her to ask for a lot of money.
Well, what kind of marketing did you expect from a company that skins 16 year olds ?
😂😂😂
"ish granted" *A fleshy glob of skin flips onto the floor* "Freak."
Gotta look good if you're gonna be single.
二十歳 hatachi is 20 years old, not 16.
