For those that aren’t aware, the Google Japan YouTube channel uploads a bunch of stuff besides just ads (though admittedly, ads still make up about 95% of their uploads). A very well known “series” of theirs is a weird keyboard lineup, which they have been adding to every april 1st october 1st (please explain). This is the latest addition to that, and here you can see the entire playlist for them. These have english subtitles (they are basically aimed at a global audience), alongside like 14 other ones (including proper Japanese subtitles!), and they are fairly tech heavy in language.
But today’s subject is their new mini-series, “がんばれ！くろーむ”. I think a lot of people might have seen their anime opening-esque music video:
Which of course is just adorable (also a PinocchioP song). But alongside it they released a 3 part ““anime”” under the same name, first part of which is below:
If you don’t like what basically amounts to blatant self-advertisement, you might not like this one, but it’s quite cute.
There are no subtitles on these videos (only autogenerated Japanese ones, I haven’t checked the accuracy of those), but the language is actually fairly simple. It might work as some beginner listening, especially if you want to learn a couple website and browser themed words.
