Memorable Commercials [March 2025] (1–10)

Suntory Whisky Kakubin “imagine.” version

You like whisky, don’t you?Okano Akihito

This is a whiskey commercial featuring Haruka Igawa as a bar owner, with Ryo Kase and Kei Tanaka appearing as customers.

In the ad, there’s only background music and narration; the actors seem to be talking, but their voices are muted, so you can’t tell what they’re saying.

It might be fun to imagine their conversation just from their expressions.

The familiar song “Whisky ga, Osuki desho?” is used as the BGM, and this time it’s sung by Porno Graffitti’s Akihito Okano.

The track has a passionate, more mature feel.

JR East Suica “Tami-chan Moves to Tokyo” Edition

Only oneAoba Ichiko

This commercial portrays the scene of Tami-chan, played by Ikoi Hayase, moving to Tokyo, while also depicting the warmth of the people seeing her off.

Although her parents oppose it, she decides to move to Tokyo; during the send-off, she notices that the Suica card she was given has been preloaded, and she feels their warmth.

That human kindness is further emphasized by Ichiko Aoba’s performance of “Hitotsu Dake.” The blend of gentle piano tones and a fragile-sounding vocal is striking, and the song conveys, with heartfelt sincerity, the importance of human connection.

When the Saints Go Marching In

This is a commercial showing Shotaro Mamiya recommending Hon-Kibori to his older-sister character, played by Wakana Matsumoto.

Learning that the only ingredients are fruit and alcohol, Matsumoto is surprised but brushes it off, saying, “But in the end, it’s all about the taste.” However, after a single sip, she’s struck by how good it is and quietly says, “I like it.” Her reaction really conveys, in a genuine way, that “it’s truly delicious,” doesn’t it? The background music is an arrangement of “When the Saints Go Marching In,” creating a calm and relaxed atmosphere.

This is a commercial that shows what the “Message Sakura,” where encouraging messages for exam-takers are projected, looks like.

With the theme “Kit, Sakura Saku yo,” powerful messages appear alongside beautiful visuals of cherry blossoms, and as people add their own messages, you can feel the chain of support.

Amplifying these powerful words of encouragement is AI’s song “Wareba.” The title corresponds to “whatever,” carrying a forward-looking will like “anything” or “anyway.” Including the lyrics and sound, it conveys both warmth and strength—a song that makes you feel the power to open up the future.

Coca-Cola Georgia: “A Bouquet for That First Step.”

A bouquet for meAdo

Here’s a commercial where a crowd of young people who lack confidence take turns singing this song by Ado in a relay style.

It’s a moving story: if you do nothing, nothing changes—but by taking a step forward with a Georgia in hand, something shifts.

At that point, the drink becomes more than just a drink—and that’s the fun of it, isn’t it?

Apple iPad mini: “The all-new iPad mini is here.”

Don’t Fence Me InAmyl and the Sniffers

This is an introductory commercial for the iPad mini that aired in 2021.

The song playing in the commercial is by Amyl and the Sniffers, a band formed in Melbourne, Australia.

They’re a group that strongly evokes the primal energy of punk, rock ’n’ roll, and garage.

“Don’t Fence Me In” is characterized by its fast, rough, and ragged sound that barrels forward like a lump of raw energy, making it an extremely exhilarating track to listen to.
