This is a comical commercial that shows how Bold Sun Gel Ball can eliminate the musty odor of laundry dried indoors.

Ken Matsudaira appears before Fuma Kikuchi’s character, the “Laundry Daimyo,” and uses a mysterious beam to solve the odor problem.

The way he silently resumes firing the beam even when asked for an explanation, and Fuma Kikuchi’s screams as the laundry is being zapped, really heighten the comedy.

The glamorous song that plays when Ken Matsudaira’s character appears is “Matsuken Samba II.” Because it’s a dazzling track evocative of a samba carnival, you can feel the fun the moment the intro starts to play.

This commercial conveys, through Shun Oguri earnestly engaging with the laundry, that using Humming Deodorizing Effect reduces the smell of indoor drying.

A key point is how delighted Shun Oguri looks throughout; the way he happily buries his face in the laundry suggests a rich, pleasant fragrance.

His spontaneous singing to his family further emphasizes a sense of happiness.

Ariel “Laundry Consultation Room” Edition

Original songmatsuki ayumu

A commercial in which Toma Ikuta serves as the consultation desk for Ariel’s Laundry Help Center, answering questions sent in by customers.

The music used in this commercial was created by Ayumu Matsuki, a self-proclaimed home-recording artist who is active as a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.

Matching the concept of a commercial designed to look like questions are coming in via SNS such as LINE, a soft, mechanical, game-settings-screen-style melody plays.

It’s a curious tune that conveys cuteness and friendliness while also giving the impression that the consultant is answering sincerely.
