Brad Pitt is at it again, appearing in yet another commercial for Japanese carrier SoftBank. In this commercial, Pitt plays a character doing everything he can to please sumo champ Musashimaru. I love it when his sandal breaks and Pitt comes to the rescue. Oh yeah, and I suppose there’s a cell phone in the ad as well. Hopefully the slim and easy to use phone doesn’t go right over the heads of the audience here. Hit play and enjoy.

Note: If someone could translate the text for me at the end of the ad… That’d be great.

    My girlfriend says it translates to something like “Softbank solves problems.”

    It says, “If you’re going to carry, use a light one.” I think they’re implying that the phone is really light (in weight). The word for “carry” and the word for “cell phone” is the same so I think they’re making a play on words…
    So there you go… translated for free…
