Mizutamari Bond (Japanese: 水溜りボンド, Mizutamari Bondo) is a Japanese YouTuber duo, consisting of Kanta (カンタ) and Tommy (トミー, Tomī). The duo began posting videos in 2015 and belong to multi-channel network UUUM. As of February 2022, Mizutamari Bond was the 22nd most-viewed YouTube channel in Japan with 3.6 billion views,[1] and the 26th most-subscribed channel in Japan with 4.04 million subscribers.[2]
Mizutamari Bond's videos consist mostly of experiments, urban legends and pranks.[3] In the past, they did not use a very high budget even for their most expensive experiments, and the average budget for one video was about 500 yen (about US$4.40).[4] The duo are known to be conscious of making videos that avoid off-color humor, which has had great influence on the acquisition of viewers as their video content can be safely watched by both families and the young generation. From this principle, fans often call Mizutamai Bond "the NHK of YouTube".[5]
The duo has had many collaborations with various entertainers and YouTubers, and have invited guests on their videos including Generations from Exile Tribe members, HIKAKIN, Hajime Syacho, Fischer's, Tokai On Air, Yuka Kinoshita, Mahoto Watanabe.[6]
Their videos always start with a fixed greeting, "Hai, dōmo, Mizutamari Bondo desu. Onegaishimasu. Tomī desu. Kanta desu. Onegaishimasu.", roughly meaning "Hello, this is Mizutamari Bond. Best regards. I am Tommy. I am Kanta. Best regards."[7]
