In this commercial featuring Hisaku Shimada as Speed-Limit Man, the frustration of not being able to watch a video due to slow loading is humorously portrayed.

Sakanaction’s song “Wasurerarenai no,” created for the CM, centers on the theme of starting a new life and is included on their 2019 album 834.194.

At the end of the commercial, Ichiro Yamaguchi, the band’s vocalist, appears in a role that thwarts Speed-Limit Man’s interference.

In this commercial, there’s a scene where a man who is a department manager at a company goes to karaoke with his subordinates.

Just when you think it’s a story about the manager not being able to keep up with his much younger team, he surprises everyone by singing Sakanaction’s “Kaijū,” instantly livening up the place! After karaoke, they chat about Sakanaction’s albums, someone asks, “You’re heading out already?”, and you can see how music helps bridge the gap between him and his team.

The closing message, “When you want to get closer, turn to music,” really sticks with you.

The song “Kaijū” used in this commercial was released in 2025 as the theme song for the anime Chi: On the Movements of the Earth.

It features a characteristically Sakanaction-like, soothing melody line and powerful lyrics about struggling yet striving to move forward, which is its appeal.

In the highly anticipated commercial for Toyota’s compact SUV, the Yaris Cross, the “CROSS for” version has been airing since September 2020.

The song featured in this ad is by Sakanaction.

When the commercial first began airing, the only information released was that Sakanaction was in charge of the music, sparking widespread curiosity about the details.

However, at the time, everything beyond the portion used in the CM was still in production, and even the title hadn’t been decided.

With the phrase “Kininari Dance,” which somehow gets stuck in your head, it’s a catchy and danceable track that’s quintessentially them.

In conclusion

From among Sakanaction’s songs, we introduced tracks that were featured in commercials. There were songs that stood out memorably within the ads, as well as ones that played a brilliant role as part of the production. I hope this article helped you discover a track you were curious about.
