Evangelion theme song played on a pea pod is just as weird and awesome as it sounds【Video】

Things I can do that impress Japanese junior high school students: touch my nose with my tongue; recite the lyrics to ‘That’s What Makes You Beautiful’ on cue; whistle the Benny Hill theme inconspicuously during class and then blame it on the Japanese sensei.

There’s one thing I’ve never mastered though – one thing that would hugely augment my repertoire of “odd things the English teacher can do”. I can’t whistle with grass. Or any kind of plant, in fact. Clearly, I should’ve taken some lessons from this guy, who can play entire tunes with a single pea pod.

▼ The challenge: play “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis” (Zankoku na tenshi no tēze) on a shoot.
The plant: karasu no endo, or “Crow’s Pea”.

▼ As Rasa, the video’s star performer, explains, first you have to open the pod and throw away the peas (awww). Then, pinch off the end to make a whistle.

▼ Ready…

▼ …set…

▼ GO GO GO GO GO!|
