Otsuka Pharmaceutical Calorie Mate “Inner Voice” VersionAju Makita

“Show them your true grit” is a catchphrase that powerfully pushes exam takers forward in this commercial.
It portrays students steadily working toward their exams while wrestling with various emotions and inner conflicts.
This CM, which depicts their hard-fought struggle, features “Be Kind to People,” a single released by THE BLUE HEARTS in 1988.
Instead of the original track, a choral version sung by the exam takers is used, delivering each word of the lyrics with striking clarity.

This is an introductory commercial for Calorie Mate Liquid, notable for its cat’s-eye-view narration.
The cat’s voice is performed by Kenjiro Tsuda, and it’s amusing how he calmly talks while watching his owner, Wakana Matsumoto.
While Ms.
Matsumoto dotes on the cat and calls it nourishment for the heart, the ad introduces Calorie Mate Liquid as a recommended source of nourishment for the body.

It depicts a moment of being tired from work, showing how his mental well-being is supported by the cat, while his physical health is supported by Calorie Mate.
It also gives the impression that, because he’s taking care of a child as well, the convenience of quickly getting nutrition with Calorie Mate is being emphasized.

Cat lovers have probably all done it at some point: “cat sniffing.” In this commercial, Wakana Matsumoto is shown nuzzling a cat, saying it’s nourishment for the soul.
The seated cat’s voice is performed by Kenjiro Tsuda, and it’s adorable how he’s exasperated by Matsumoto’s affection yet accepts it.
And the product Tsuda introduces at the end is Calorie Mate Liquid, pitched as perfect for nourishing the body.
Otsuka Pharmaceutical Calorie Mate “Blue Calorie Mate” VersionYuko Oshima, Daichi Kaneko

It’s a memorable commercial featuring Yuko Oshima and her junior colleague, Daichi Kaneko.
Kaneko had a meeting over video chat in the morning, but that afternoon Oshima drove him to visit the client in person.
When Oshima says, “We’ve seen their faces, but we haven’t seen their backs,” and watches the clients at work, many viewers likely felt as though they’d been taught something important.
Otsuka Pharmaceutical Calorie Mate Jelly “Chuu-shita (Kissed)” VersionYuuichi Nakamura

This is one of the series of commercials that depict CalorieMate as a character called a “little nutritionist.” This time, the story unfolds with CalorieMate getting jealous of CalorieMate Jelly.
Watching a woman sip jelly from a pouch, it panics and cries out, “She kissed it!”—which is just so adorable, isn’t it? And at the end of the commercial, the man sitting next to the woman eats it, closing on a humorous punchline with its lament, “Why meee?”

What he’s holding is Calorie Mate Liquid.
The ad clearly conveys how easily you can get the nutrients you need.
The background music is Sakanaction’s “Nylon no Ito.” The lyrics, with depictions that feel like looking back on the past and evoke nostalgia, seem to leave room for listeners to project their own stories.
