Compilation of Nissin commercials. The outlandish direction is making waves! (61–70)
Nissin Foods ‘Cup Noodles You Eat in a Bowl: “Super Convenient”’ (version)
This is a commercial that catchily showcases the situations where the Cup Noodles “bowl-to-eat” series shines.
It opens by voicing a consumer concern—“I never know when I’m supposed to eat Cup Noodles in a bowl”—and then presents specific recommended occasions, such as for breakfast, a snack, or as a soup dish alongside a meal.
It’s very easy to understand, and the appearance of the bowl character also adds a sense of friendliness.
Donbei East-West Rap BattleKEN THE 390, DOTAMA, ERONE, KOPERU, Matsumoto Club, Tsukitei Taiyu
Did you know that the flavor of Nissin’s Donbei noodles sold by Nissin Foods differs between the Kanto and Kansai regions? In 2016, they launched a campaign to sell both versions nationwide.
To commemorate the campaign, they released a commercial featuring a battle between the Kanto team and the Kansai team.
On the Kansai side were ERONE, DOTAMA, and Taiyu Tsukitei.
Representing the Kanto side were KEN THE 390, KOPERU, and Matsumoto Club.
The rapid-fire rap exchanges packed into about three minutes are a must-listen—even if you’re not a hip-hop fan!
Nissin Cup Noodles “I Want to Eat Something Tasty” Version
Have you ever tried Nissin Cup Noodles’ Chili Tomato flavor? The commercial titled “Umaimon Tabetai” was created out of a desire to let more people know about its taste.
It’s hard to describe, but it features 8-bit, Famicom-style characters who eat the Chili Tomato flavor, rhythmically chant words, and then shoot beams from their eyes.
The result is a spot that’s not only visually striking but also sticks in your ears.
Nissin Chicken Ramen “Time Performance” VersionNadal, Yocchan
A commercial that’s getting buzz for recipes you’ll want to copy right away is Nissin Chicken Ramen’s “Taipa-de” spot.
In it, Nadal introduces a variety of creative recipes using bagged Chicken Ramen.
Amazingly, three recipes appear within a short 30-second runtime.
It’s nice that they even include a dessert.
By the way, “taipa” is short for “time performance,” meaning not only is it delicious, but you can make it in no time.
Nissin Foods Cup Noodles “7 SAMURAI” Version
This commercial, which shows samurai in armor doing extreme sports, aired in 2016.
It’s striking to see them coolly pulling off activities that don’t typically go with the image of samurai—like surfing, skateboarding, BMX, skiing, and slacklining.
I’ve heard this commercial was rolled out not only in Japan but overseas as a global campaign, and it’s a fitting piece to showcase the appeal of Japan!
Nissin Foods Cup Noodles “I Want to Eat Delicious Stuff: Kansai” Version
This pixel-art illustration, reminiscent of 1990s video games, is an ad introducing Chili Tomato Noodles.
This particular spot is titled the Kansai Edition, and the characters speaking in the Kansai dialect make a strong impression.
Along with the pixel art, the color palette heightens the visual impact, making it a memorable commercial you won’t forget after seeing it once.
Nissin Foods Cup Noodles: ‘Samurai in Brazil’ Version
This is a commercial that aired in 2014, featuring a lone samurai who appears in Brazil and shows off his soccer skills.
His acrobatic freestyle football performance and brilliant dribbling excite the locals.
It’s a cool commercial that presents a Japanese brand to the world.
The background music features a Tsugaru shamisen performance by the second Miyama Mitsumasa, enhancing the distinctly Japanese coolness of the visuals through the music as well.
