Glitter Killerkyarī pamyu pamyu
The song used for the au Smart Pass “App” commercial is Kyary Pamyu Pamyu’s “Kira Kira Killer.” In addition to Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, the commercial features Kazuko Kurosawa and Miyuki Oshima from the comedy trio Morisanchu.
“Kira Kira Killer” was released as a single from her 2014 album “Pika Pika Fantajin,” which reached No.
1 on the Oricon album chart.
It’s a track that blends an upbeat, happy sound packed with Kyary Pamyu Pamyu’s charm and lyrics themed around luck.
Aquarium from The Carnival of the AnimalsCamille Saint-Saëns
In the au commercial where, in the room behind the Santarō trio, Kagu-chan appears to be making something in a “Crane’s Gratitude”-style scene, the song playing in the background that creates a mysterious atmosphere is “Aquarium,” the seventh movement from The Carnival of the Animals.
It’s a piece by the French composer Camille Saint-Saëns, notable for its memorable melody that evokes a sense of wonder, eeriness, and foreboding.
It perfectly matches Santarō’s feelings as he wonders what Kagu-chan is doing beyond the door in a non-human form.
The way the same melody continues calmly also adds to the enigmatic mood.
Arabesque No. 1Claude Debussy
An AU commercial that combines the removal of data capacity limits with the removal of entry limits to Ryugu-jo.
The beautiful melody that perfectly matches the image of the gorgeous Dragon Palace where Otohime—played by Nanao as Oto-chan—lives is “Arabesque No.
1” from Two Arabesques.
Composed by the French composer Claude Debussy for piano, it consists of two pieces, No.
1 and No.
2.
The flowing melodies across the upper and lower registers of the piano evoke the shimmering, glistening movement of seawater.
It perfectly conveys the mysterious, beautiful world of the Dragon Palace.
Day After Day feat. Mei Takahashi (LAUSBUB)pasokon ongaku kurabu
This track, a standout collaboration between Pasocom Music Club and Mei Takahashi, captures the small glimmers hidden in everyday life.
It vividly expresses the sense of stagnation felt in repetitive days and those moments when tiny things steal your heart.
Featured on the album “FINE LINE,” released in May 2023, it was also used in NTT Docomo’s commercial “Seishun Loop.” The music video was shot using 3.5m and 10m circular rails, visually rendering the looping routine in a striking way.
A recommended song for anyone who wants to feel the subtleties of youth or discover something new in the everyday.
Nocturne No. 2 in E-flat major, Op. 9 No. 2Furederikku Shopan
Chopin’s famous Nocturne plays over the Princess Orihime love chat spun by the three Taro heroes.
The melody is beautifully mellow, but the slightly cheap-sounding audio source gives it a surreal edge!
SakuraRemioromen
It was released in 2009 as a download-only single by Remioromen.
The song was used as the commercial theme for the “au LISMO! Recommend Remioromen” campaign, a collaboration with KDDI and Okinawa Cellular, and the band members themselves also appeared in the commercial.
It was released early exclusively on “mora” and au’s “LISMO.”

Into the DreamInoue Yosui
In the “WIN” commercial featuring Satoshi Tsumabuki, Yosui Inoue’s song “Yume no Naka e” is used.
Released in 1973, the song has been featured across various media, including as the theme for the film “After School.” It has also been covered by many artists such as Yuki Saito and Yorushika, making it a beloved track across generations.
The lyrics, which encourage us not to be overly fixated on what’s in front of us, not to be bound by rules, and to just try what we want to do, feel like a gentle message to people today who are chased by so many things.
When you’re tired, take this song with you and head out somewhere to blow off your everyday stress!
