[If only it existed] A compilation of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical commercials

You often see commercials for Kobayashi Pharmaceutical—known for over-the-counter medicines, skincare products, air fresheners, and more—when watching TV, don’t you?

Many of their products have names that seem linked to their effects, and their commercials often have a unique sense of humor.

I think there are quite a few people who are secretly fans of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical.

In this article, we’ll showcase a whole lineup of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical commercials!

From funny ads to straightforward spots that simply convey a product’s appeal, we’ll introduce a variety of commercials, so please take your time and enjoy.

[Wouldn’t it be nice if we had this?] A compilation of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical commercials (11–20)

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Itoyoji (Dental Floss Picks) Smooth-Entry Type “Easy Even for First-Timers” Version

Floss Threaders, Smooth-Entry Type: “Easy Even for First-Timers” Version (1YS-0031)

If you don’t usually use dental floss or are about to try it for the first time, you might worry about whether the floss will slide properly between your teeth or get caught.

This commercial puts those concerns to rest.

As the product name suggests, it shows how the floss slips smoothly between teeth and removes debris with ease.

The light, lively narration stands out, making it a clear and relatable ad.

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Tafdento ‘Fine Foam’ VersionKoji Imada

Toughdent “Fine, Delicate Foam” Version (TDX-0335)

This is a commercial where Koji Imada cheerfully introduces the features of a denture cleanser released by Kobayashi Pharmaceutical.

Since Mr.

Imada is someone we see almost daily on variety shows, he’s likely to feel familiar to viewers in the product’s target audience!

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical “Chikunain: Pus and Inflammation” Version

Chikunain: ‘Pus and Inflammation’ Version (TKN-0313)

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical’s Chikunain commercial, “Pus and Inflammation.” This piece highlights the product’s appeal by realistically conveying the suffering caused by pus and inflammation.

In the first half, a man and a woman struggling with pus and inflammation appear, and in an illustration, the area above the nose is shown filled with pus and inflamed.

Then, when Chikunain is used, there’s an image of the pus smoothly draining out.

Even those who haven’t experienced trouble with pus and inflammation before can likely imagine how relieving it would feel.

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Meitan Ume Extract “I Tried All Kinds of Things” VersionRei Okamoto

Meitan Ume Extract “I tried various things” Version D (ME1-0002)

In terms of length it’s only about half a second, but that “shaan” sound of “Ah, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical”—maybe I’m unconsciously perking up my ears for it.

I’ve heard that athletes often eat umeboshi, so plum products must be good for the body.

Just watching this commercial for plum pulp extract, packed with citric acid, makes my mouth water.

Rei Okamoto’s suit, which seems to evoke the image of a plum, is lovely too.

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Shirt Cool ‘So Cool’ Version

Shirt Cool C Revised “So Cool” Version (NCT-0001)

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical’s products always spark talk about their naming sense.

This “Shirt Cool” instantly clicks just from the name—so straightforward and easy to get! And in this commercial, the anime really grabs your attention; the moment the character sweats and cools down with Shirt Cool, even his face turns handsome—it makes the point super clearly (lol).

Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Breath Care “People notice your mouth odor!” version

Brescare “They’ll Notice Your Bad Breath!” Version (BRC-0153)

Over the past few years, we’ve gotten completely used to wearing masks due to COVID-19, but since mask restrictions have recently been lifted, I imagine more people are concerned about their breath than before.

With this Breath Care, just one capsule refreshes you from the inside.

It’s definitely something you’ll want to keep on hand!
