The Hard Gay Thread

[zindryr]

Yeah, it's not porn even though the title may make it seem that way. Hard Gay is a Japanese comedian who uses a stereotypical gay image, much like that of the Village People with a full leather outfit, to various comedic ends. Read more about him at his wikipedia entry, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masaki_Sumitani

You either hate him, or you love him. We've found that a larger amount of people like him than hate him. At least they're more vocal.

I'm also posting here because I didn't see a dedicated thread for it, and I figured there may be some interest in it, not to mention I'm the one doing translations so I figured this place would also kind of be a good place to post it.

[gk]Unfortunately, YT removed these links. However, there are alternative ways to check this series out:[/gk]

YouTube only removed my particular account, there are still a number of other people on YouTube that also have the HG videos I did.

http://www.youtube.com/user/amnesiak Comes to mind. Just search "razor ramon hg" or even "hard gay" and you'll find them.

As for Hard Gay, there is a Bakafish account on Veoh where you can watch them in much better quality then on Youtube: http://www.veoh.com/users/Bakafish

(At least it could be better quality, but seems that it's not uploaded that well as you can do at Veoh)

In any case, enjoy, discuss, hate, new ones will be added every Monday or so. If you want to read translation notes or download the full quality avi files they're in the Hard Gay section of the Bakakage.net forums.

wow, thanks for posting this. i already had many of them, so i guess you might figure that im a lover and not a hater. when i lived in osaka, i even went to see a concert with him... ^^

 

[zindryr]

Oops, forgot to link the Father's Day one in there. In any case we just released the Cooking one today, so next Monday is when the next one will come out.

And that's only the mini KurohiGAY NJT. There's a full-size one out too.

 

[Brede]

that would explain why i only managed to see 1/2 of the cooking one...those poor poor kids...traumatised for life...

 

[Froggles]

My face is hurting from laughing so much - I love the reaction of those 2 African American blokes in the Tommy series.

 

[Rampages]

Man, I hope I never see something like this again!

 

[karasu]

lol it's so funny... but really.... he doesn't have any manners does he?
but he can force his way to do things he wanted to.. crazy...


i hope you guys don't mind i "stole" the videos from youtube

 

[NeoShweaty]

WHAT THE HELL ?!? more hard gay?!? i need to download it !

 

[zindryr]

If you want to download it then don't download it from YouTube, go to the HG section our forums and torrent the higher quality AVI files. The YT ones are encoded at a lower quality to fit onto YT, not to mention they end up being flash files which suck for normal videos anyway.

 

[NeoShweaty]

that is what i do

 

[karasu]

lol sorry.. but my download is capped..
i'm happy enough with lower quality and smaller size files..

 

[Gold Knight]

Whoa, funny!

 

[zindryr]

Added Cooking 2 and Cooking 3 to the list. We're going to be releasing a fairly long one this Monday.

*I wish this thread was "stickied"*
