Kirin Beer Harekaze “Beloved Memories” VersionNEW!Yuki Amami

Sunny Breeze: Loved Memories, 60 Seconds

In the spring of 2026, Harekaze is highlighting a renewal two years after its launch.

In the new commercial, Yuki Amami talks about her experience leaving the Takarazuka Revue and says that because of that experience, she was able to work hard on the next stage of her life.

She goes on to say that Harekaze is the same: it’s precisely because it has the track record of being enjoyed by so many people over the past two years that it can take a new step forward.

Her talk, grounded in rich experience, was so compelling that you couldn’t help but listen.

In the background of Amami’s narration, the familiar “Kaze ni Naritai” plays as the BGM.

Oita Bank Happy Card Loan Card Loan Inspector Version (30 seconds)

This is a commercial for Oita Bank’s card loan featuring Kyoko Fukada.

In the “Daigin Library” segment, she recommends a trip to Egypt to a man who says he wants to learn about the pyramids.

When the man expresses concerns about money, she advises him to “use a card loan.” In the “Card Loan Inspector” segment, Fukada plays an airport security officer who discovers an Oita Bank card among a passenger’s belongings.

You might think she would scold the passenger for using a card loan to travel abroad, but instead she beams and sends them off, saying, “Card loan is bank!” The direction has the feel of a daytime drama aired in the early afternoon, which makes it memorable and amusing.
