It clearly promotes the idea that drinking it helps reduce visceral fat.
The background music is an instrumental cover of Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” In Japan, the version famously covered by Hideki Saijo in 1979 is well known.

The exchange between Motoki Omori and Meguro near the end of the commercial is really lovely.
