he divorce ceremony is the brainchild of Hiroki Terai, who started a small divorce mansion some years ago and now will conducts an elaborate (and binding) divorce ceremony for about $600 in American money. “I started this ceremony in April last year thinking that there should be a positive way to end a marriage and move on by making a vow to restart their lives in front of loved ones,” said Terai, Japan’s first divorce ceremony planner. The ceremony, with culminates in a ring-smashing with a giant frog-shaped hammer, is said to give both bride and groom a fresh start and a renewed outlook on life by giving the marriage as dramatic an ending as it once had a beginning.

An only in Japan kind of thing. Sounds amusing to some people, but looking at the only Japanese posted comment on that YT page, the person doesn't like it one bit.

これはどっかのアホな会社の宣伝です。しかもあれは夫婦ではないと思います。日本にこんな文化ありません。
Translation:
This is propaganda of an idiot's workplace somewhere. Furthermore, I think they are not a married couple. We should not have this kind of culture in Japan.

Frog hammer? Why not a Llama Hammer? It obviously sounds better.

Because a Llama hammer would only enchant it with +500 Agility, not break it!

Trust the Japanese to come up with something so eminently wince-worthy. <3
