Ken Tanaka Meets David Ury, Proving Wrong All The Haters
There’s been a lot of controversy recently over the strong resemblance of American-born Japanese YouTuber Ken Tanaka (helpmefindmyparents) and an actor on IMDB named David Ury. Some, including myself, even claimed they may have been in the same person. But I’m afraid we were all mistaken! Ken Tanaka has just posted this video in which he meets David Ury:

Ken Tanaka lives in a reality that is likely very different from your own. In this reality, rather unreal things can and do happen. Please keep in mind that these videos are meant for entertainment purposes.

Yeah… as it has been said, it’s just not funny. I think that why people make such a big deal out of it. We know it’s all for laughs, but few are laughing.

This video is very clever; he uses a lot of quick cuts to make it appear as though there are 2 people there. Notice they never shake hands. “Ken” is a very creative amateur filmmaker.
I don’t find him funny but there’s nothing offensive about this. His Japanese isn’t bad, and he’s decided to create this persona to promote himself as an actor. It worked for “Lonelygirl”, so why not for “Ken Tanaka”?
Not funny, but I’m not sure it’s meant to be. I see it as more of an experiment.

It’s obvious that David Ury is Ken Tanaka and I don’t understand what all this fuss is about. Ken Tanaka is a fictional character used in a series of documentary-style videos about Japan. Whether people like him or not is another story. I personally find him very entertaining but knowing Japanese does help.
