Recalling the rest of the line about heading out, and the visual from the commercial where you see all the tarako marching along, I like that one better than spellcasting, swimming or the sound of a bug. ^_^ I talked to my wife again and asked her if スイッチョスイッチョ reminds her of anything else besides a magical incantation, and she said the rhythm of people marching in formation.

However, they recalled things such as "the sound a bug makes", or even "swimming", when I described waving my arms around and making the sound. I don't think that the switch of a magician is the universal reaction to スイッチョスイッチョ。 Needs more analysis!

Needs more analysis!

It could be one of those things that really depends on the context, and maybe also how awake your spouse is when you ask her about it. ^_^ I wonder if the official website has the video? I'll have to check that out since I know she'll refuse to watch it if it's on Youtube. She really is the most law-abiding person I know, and I admire her for that even though I'm a typical American when it comes to such things. Hey, it's free advertising, right? And it worked, too, since now all I can think about is eating some charming tarako... --- If you try it on a random Japanese person, be sure to get their reaction on video. And do the flashing finger motion, too, for full effect! ^_^ I really want her to see the video so that I can see if she still has the same opinion.
