UPDATE: The actual app vanished, too - so I spent the past 6 months on a quest to save it. Here's that journey: th-cam.com/video/341IsnWdaT4/w-d-xo.html
okay, now go and meet Scott to tell him about this incredible journey
@@lapischicken after the pandemic of course
Nick Robinson yes
theirs a re upload of the original video posted about a year ago
Hello Nick, it's me, Scott Oelkers, former CEO of Domino's Pizza Japan. I can tell you why the video was taken down from TH-cam, and why the app vanished as well. You'll have to shoot me a pm for the full story, but the short answer is: ants.
Thank you for your support and have a nice day!
*becomes international spy*
*uses it to find dominos hatsune miku*
How does this have no replies , im dead rn
Dragzilla 66 Crossout craft ride destroy lol
I would have never thought it would be that easy..
once you get your pizza,
*H A V E S O M E F U N W I T H M I K U*
Domino's ad: **disappears**
Nick: *flies to Japan, illegally enters domino's headquarters while filming, and calls the manager*
It's not illegal to enter the building so long as he doesn't enter locked doors.
Jackal Main he wasn’t allowed to record in there, but he was. If they found out he was recording, he could’ve possibly got fined or arrested
Ultimate Orange Gamer not illegal to enter I meant and still probably not illegal as long as he blured faces to record
Double O Karen

im literally convinced this dude is just looking for excuses to fly to japan every couple of weeks
me? never

Good story...

@@babylonian Hi
i got here by scanning someones shirt
I got here by reading this guys community tab
Congratulations, welcome to one of the best TH-cam channels ever.
Bushona youve been posted on the community tab
Ben Homan I hope it’s worth it
did you randomly scan a stranger's shirt what?
This went from game theory to mission impossible real fast

Welcome back to japan every video
Secretary: "He retired, lol"
Nick (depressed): "He is DEAD."
But he is actually dead
@@jysethia Prove it. I googled and found nothing.
@@DerEchteMrBleistift He said so in the video (not the part you mentioned)
Ktel Mystic Why wouldn’t she say that then?
i think nick said it in a figurative way. notice that he says "the king of domino's was dead" as in the one he is looking for is not there anymore. that or nick genuinely thinks Oelkers is dead lol.
This is like an anime.
"He... he's retired."
"He was dead."
"It starts to rain."
Yeah like seriously
Its so perfect timed its scary
@@AloneTraveler444 yea
"Its a terrible day for rain."
It was even in Japan too
Nick: *moves to Japan*
Nick: “so I booked a flight to America”
In a parallel dimension
Wait that’s illegal
That would be cheaper than flying every day to japan
Literally Nick's Brother
You joke, but he said this in the Mario movie review.
I swear to God 90% of Japan's income comes from this guy buying plane tickets
Lol
LOL
Lol
True that
Dubai has a lot to tbh there income probably comes from there oil and tourists
this man really flew to Japan because of an ad
Fucking madlad. I'm proud
Didn't expect to see you here
Jaynautic marketing done right
And now a sticker.
Tbh its not even that good i looked at it and its mostly just japanese people and scotts eyes
"The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku" playing softly in the background at the end of the vid really sealed the deal. Your videos are so entertaining, I'm off to binge all of them.
They have great replay value as well :D
Did anyone notice at the end of the video Nick added the piano cover of "The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku" when he was talking about how Scott left Domino's Pizza?
On top of that, it was performed by Theister
Nick: *experiences a minor inconvenience*
Also Nick: “so I booked a flight to Japan”
Minor?
THIS IS A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION
the ultimate karen
Miku is more important then life
this isn't a minor inconvenience
When did the joke stop and the seriousness kick in? About the time when he said he watches it every morning? When he booked a plane ticket to Japan? When he actually flew to Japan? When he actually found the dominos headquarters? When he dialed the CEO's phone number?
OverFallen it was all serious
I actually thought he was joking when he said he liked the ad it wasnt even that good so i came in expecting a little bit of research then leaving it there but he actually flew to another country and i couldnt understand
The second he said "unprecedented act of agression".
@@shrekonion8307 he's white. This is another white people moment
@@op-yd2is u got it all figured out. congratulations ur happy now
Alright, this LEGEND of a human being just *went* to Japan to ask the CEO of *DOMINOS* about a TH-cam video. This LEGEND walked into DOMINOS HQ, CASUALLY, AND CALLED THE CEO'S OFFICE. I aspire to be like this.
Well when you put it like that, it sounds awesome
“What’s your favourite Documentary?”
“Guess.”
“Planet Earth? Blackfish? Fed up?”
“Nah, man. It’s that one about the Dominoes Pizza Hatsune Miku crossover”
Nick in every video: I had no other choice but to fly to Japan.
I got a Raman bowl and it was missing the spice packet. I had no other choice but to fly to Japan
It is a fun little continuity
Did he use the same footage as well? Where hes on the plane
Glegos Shapiro that’s what I realised too lol
The woman handing out towels seems... strangely familiar 😂
@@Rikkuunn_ He didn't reuse the footage, people in Japan are just very consistant
I swear, it's been two whole years. If someone doesn't make an anime adaptation of this video I'll be reeeally upset.
four years. Unbelievable.
Setup, Protagonist’s motivation, Obstacle, Reward, Mysteries solved, Return home
i basically aim for all my videos to fit this description
"Was I about to be arrested in a foreign country for trespassing on private property owned by the most powerful pizza company in all of Japan?"

"Yes. Yes I was."

Remember when a few years ago you could just snag a plane to fly to the other side of the planet to enter the fifth floor of a non-descript office building to pick up a phone to directly call a multinational billion-dollar corporation's CEO? Such simple times.
the good ole days 😪
Playing "The disappearance of hatsune miku" at the end almost made me cry holly shit
In a place like this, where non asians are barely seen, imagine getting on the elevator with your co-worker, and all of the sudden theres some random caucasian dude literally coming into your Office.
lmao
I'd be scared. Is he head office going there to fire people...or change all the processes. Better be in your best behaviour.
@@jonathandpg6115 Suddenly you and all your co-workers start being extremely polite to him and he's just nervously standing there.
Yeah it's funny how "diversity" and "racism" are things people only care about in White countries
@@Superabound2 you must be fun at parties
@@Superabound2 very slick capitalization of the W there.
Can't imagine why you did that.

My dude. You went all the way to Japan, infiltrated their HQ and called the CEO's office from the local telephone line just to find out what happened to your favorite ad????
You have the kind of dedication they portray in shonen anime dude. I'm sure someone will write about you someday
orochimarujes *madlad
Yes, someone needs to make a one-shot manga/anime about this!
orochimarujes *madmate
i understand your feelings completely, I've had this profile pic since the vid came out
You’re a true hero
holy sheet
Oh hecc
Oh hecc
That's just.. Amazing.
And so, a journey was born.
With the next chapter today.
the fact you attempted to call the former CEO himself is giving me big karen vibes
Josh Kilimnik.
Josh. Kill him Nick.
The strings are unraveling
The voices are back.
The creepiest part is how scott spelt backwards is nick.
Crazy.
We truly live in wild times.
‘unraveling’ *OHSHIETE YO SHIETE YO*
Holy shit!
@@MorganPhillipsPage nick backwards is Scott though?
@@sparexcalibur I think we are saying the same thing, but youre just saying it backwards
I'm starting to think that Nick is secretly an ultra-weaboo and keeps on finding excuses to return to return to anime's motherland
Wdym secretly, his whole thing is borderline neckbeard.
Ezfar Afh I don't think he goes to Japan for his videos. He's probably there on other business and does this as a sideline.
Nick: I ran out of Pockys, and the Asian grocery store is kinda boring, so I have no choice I have to go to Japan.
*SO I BOOKED A TICKET*
so anyways i started booking that
this guy has the dedication of john wick
Imagine if you had been just a bit earlier, you may have actually met Mr. Oelkers himself
I have, and he’s a cool dude.
dominos: takes video down
Nick: *GOES TO TOKYO AND GOES DIRECTLY INTO THE DOMINOS JAPAN HEADQUARTERS JUST TO ASK WHY*
And then gave up and made his own conclusion..... He could have at least tried to speak to more people or.... You know anyone. Like he pretty much say in the lobby asked to speak to someone and was told they retired. That is all he did
@@JordanKetterer buddy, he's in tokyo, where most people don't speak English, and was feeling extremely uncomfortable
@@JordanKetterer the guy being retired WAS the answer
@@mlo12345 I mean we can't know that, it's another unconfirmed theory, just like the app not working anylonger, or any other possibility. Lots of other companies leave videos and other stuff off ex CEOs or other big woods up after they leave it's not lying. Just put a disclaimer. Please understand that time passes and people move on.
Secondly, if you take the time and money to travel around the world, if you take the time and energy to find the head office and go in side why not put a little extra time into getting a tour guide or just a basic translator, even Google translate these days could have helped. He could have actually asked the questions like a real journalist or reporter would have. He is not the person to be looking for answers in a foreign country, but he may be the first to go and then give up on camera, make up a reason and tell his opinion without actually getting the facts
@@mlo12345 also..... He didn't need to go to Japan to figure it he retired. Probably could have looked they up... He said he did research.... Not very comprehensive, tho I'll give him the benefit of the doing as he was there right as they were changing over

This is how it all started, and now look where he’s at. Never give up on your dreams.
Last Tuesday I woke up at 2am hungry and I discovered that my apartment was completely devoid of my favorite snack so I immediately booked a flight to Japan to rectify this travesty
Pfft,duh
"An unprecedented act of aggression from Domino's Japan"
*nuke*
Well it’s probably true.
Every time that this video pops up on my home page I watch it again... This made me watch the original ad for the first time, and I thank you a lot for that, it was a beautiful ad...
Thanks a lot for the video.
bet you didn't realize "The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku" is about a Domino's commercial

nice catch! ☺️
Whenever he says "So i knew what I had to do" I get excited really fast and also start laughing because come on, the man flew to japan to ask about an ad.
*_The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku_*
**plays at the end**
Was that a pun
You could say that this is The Real Disappearance of Hatsune Miku
I WAS JUST GONNA SAY THAT
1: this video is a year old
2: WHY DID TH-cam NOT RECOMMEND THIS TILL NOW
I think it has to do with the amount of his videos, the TH-cam algorithm promotes channels with a certain amount of videos. So he probably didn't have enough videos to feed into the algorithm if you only have four videos and people see one video and don't have interest in any others TH-cam won't waste time recommending your channel or video to others, but if you keep producing high quality videos that keep people watching.... boom
@TimBukTwo same
Oooh that's a fun thought I hadn't thought of that, but I would ask how would those new viewers ever find the video in the first place?
Yeah, but I think new viewers should feed into the algorithm for sure, obviously if new people are watching then that's a good reason to recommend, I wonder how the first person to view a video I wonder who that is. Maybe TH-cam has people who watch things and then based on their opinion they'll go from there, or maybe they choose people based on their profile to track and then recommend what they watch, and like kind of like a Nielsen family
I think the video tags feed into it as well, and now their copyright program scans videos to and maybe Its searching for how many pixels ie quality of videos
Thank you so so much for using the song ‘the disappearance of Hatsune Miku’ at the end of the video and making that pun in the beginning!! I love this :)
always makes me happy when people notice that detail, hahah
A problem slightly annoys nick.
Nick: so i bought a ticket to japan
Best video on youtube: *get taken down*
Nick: I can make the best video on youtube now
Until he retires and someone from idk France notices this video is taken down just when they were about to watch it -like every morning- and so decides to go to the US just to find out, trespassing into Nick Robinson Corp.'s HQ
Ida-Maree Sherman surround the text with dashes.
- this - without spaces becomes

"The best video" good joke
I love how Nick sits down with his morning cup of coffee every day and just watches Domino’s App Ft. Hatsune Miku. This is wonderful information.
😂😂💀
Well he can’t now...
this man has been in the air longer than he has been on the ground
Near the end I realised that you were playing The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku and I just thought how fitting.
5 minutes in: Wow this satire is great
10 minutes in: Wow this... satire... is great??
14 minutes in: (cries in pizza)
TheGraveAccent
5 minutes in: you think this is satire
10 minutes in: you think he’s really dedicated to the joke
15 minutes in: bittersweet tears flow as you realize this man had a serious mission, and you eat a pizza from dominos as you learn this ad had more to than you knew before
This is how I felt watching his vid about Mario's hair
Same, man, I'm actually crying though.
this is how desperate someone is when they really enjoyed something and it suddenly disappeared

No; the drama is *entirely* necessary

A Vocaloid fan, I see. I knew you were a bit of a weeb, but I’m so excited to see a video essayist/journalist not only so into Japanese culture, but also into Vocaloid.
"Was I about to be arrested in a foreign country for trespassing on private property, owned by the most powerful pizza company in all of Japan?"
the best sentence in the English language.
It’s almost inspiring how much you love Scott, former CEO of Dominos Pizza Japan. Like, the travel to Japan at the mere thought you wouldn’t get to see Scott and Miku selling you pizza is amazing. Congratulations man, you’ve reached the peak of human achievement.
Thank you for putting this mystery to rest.

Because you brushed passed the flowers quickly, I read the Hanakotoba (Japanese flower symbolism) as "Sincere Remembrance". Genuinely thought Scott had died.

The worst part is that a Google search would have probably gotten him that answer, but what an adventure. It truly was about the journey
no, it wasnt public that scott had retired by then

It's always incredible see you travel to Japan, explore, talk to people, until you discover what you were looking for! It's a bit like a videogame!
