This commercial portrays Noritake Kinashi and Ayaka Miyoshi as a family, highlighting how Cook Do supports their family time together.
By showing humorous moments—like voting on the menu or waiting with a bowl of rice for the main dish—it conveys the idea of deliciousness that accompanies happiness.
The music further amplifying those positive emotions depicted on screen is “Pomp and Circumstance.” Its expansive, powerful arrangement is striking, and you can sense a bright atmosphere and forward-looking emotions from the sound.
Tea for twoDoris Day
It was used in the corporate advertisement “To the World” for Ajinomoto’s 100th anniversary.
It’s a tune that’s long been familiar to the ear, and its unfading feel captures the spirit of a centennial, I think.
The commercial uses an arranged version, but Doris Day’s rendition is also cute and wonderful.
Original song
This commercial features interactions between Eiko Koike and children to highlight how easy and delicious today’s big-plate dishes—meat miso cabbage and silky egg pork-and-cabbage—are.
It conveys that the flavor is so beloved by kids it’s known as “Mom’s cabbage,” and that it’s simple to make.
A key point is that two types of dishes are introduced, showing how they can add variety to everyday menus.
The light background music also stands out, giving a relaxed, everyday-life feel.
Original song
This commercial highlights how Cook Do’s Twice-Cooked Pork supports family bonds through its delicious taste, conveyed through a wordless exchange between Tomomitsu Yamaguchi and Hana Sugisaki.
It begins with a poignant scene where the father serves his daughter some twice-cooked pork, only to have her refuse it.
The story then progresses to the father tearing up as he watches the dish being eaten, but from there, the daughter hands the twice-cooked pork back to her father.
Their shared smiles express the closeness of the family.
The warm atmosphere of the visuals is further enhanced by the original, gently resonant BGM.
Its distinctive three-beat rhythm brings a lightness that effectively conveys warmth and joy.
Original song
This is a commercial introducing what the Mala Mapo Tofu from Cook Do’s premium ‘Goku’ series—known for its authentic flavors—is like.
By showing Hiroshi Abe eating intently and the smile he reveals as he does, the ad powerfully conveys the product’s high quality.
Further emphasizing the strength of the visuals is an original piece of background music that communicates a sense of tension.
Built around a briskly resonant piano, the composition balances lightness and force, creating a distinctive worldview.
Original song
This commercial cheerfully showcases, through a family’s interactions, that today’s big-platter pork belly and eggplant dish is a flavor kids love.
The story unfolds with Eiko Koike narrating the children’s requests for “that eggplant thing,” leading into a reveal of what the dish is like.
Their expressions as they savor the happiness after eating are memorable, effectively highlighting both the ease of preparation and the delicious taste.
The light, overlapping BGM is another striking point, reinforcing the impression of an ordinary, everyday scene.
Original song
This commercial features Eiko Koike as a housewife struggling to decide on dinner, highlighting how Cook Do’s “Kyo no Oozara” solves that problem.
It depicts the familiar situation where, when you ask what everyone wants for dinner, the answers are “anything” or “something tasty,” and shows that even then, this option can easily make everyone happy.
The content conveys that the product thoughtfully supports both the person cooking and the people eating, as seen in their smiles when they take a bite.
The original BGM is arranged with lightly resonant strings, and its buoyant tones evoke a feeling of autumnal warmth.
