Kinnikuman Go Fight!Kushida Akira
This is a commercial for Cup Noodles PRO featuring Kinnikuman and Terryman, who have started worrying about their health as they’ve gotten older.
As the two say, “We want to keep carbs and salt low but get plenty of protein…,” the new Cup Noodles PRO appears, highlighting that it can meet those needs.
It’s a humorous direction that’s amusing for showing the two as middle‑aged men—something not seen in the original work.
