I just discovered this set of videos on YouTube to "speak" japanese without saying any words, I know those are old videos but it's the first time I've seen those and they are rather good:

* first part
* second part
* third part (in this one you learn a few words)

It thought it would suck, but those videos rocked. Especially the third one.

The third video is one of the funniest things I've seen on YouTube.

I didn't know First Kitchen was abbreviated fa-kin (seriously, watch the video).

I think it was the freak show factor.

Many people actually believed that he was a white kid born in Japan and raised like a Japanese kid, complete with bad English.

I didn't know what he was until I met some random people at a bar last night and they told me he's an American actor. I figured he was European or something.

If you liked the Ken Tanaka and Remi videos, they have another one with Japanese puns:
