Compilation of snack commercials: from the latest to nostalgic ones (191–200)
Meiji Chocolate Effect: “The Return of Professor Choco” EditionKanji Ishimaru
A comical piece featuring Kanji Ishimaru as Mr.
Chocolate.
In response to the parrot’s question, “What’s the deciding factor when choosing high-cacao chocolate?”, his deadpan PR pitch—“The amount of cocoa polyphenols.
Amount, amount, amount.”—is hilarious for its utter lack of guile.
I’m also impressed by the perfect timing of the parrot’s punchy interjections that fuel the laughs!
Morinaga Confectionery Morinaga Ramune “Panic during the exam!? I can’t stop being bothered by the noise… Awaken your concentration”Riko Ishida, Oshiromu Chance
This commercial for Morinaga Ramune depicts a scene during a school exam.
In the ad, the protagonist played by Riko Ishida can’t concentrate because she’s distracted by the surrounding noises, which eventually start to sound like a heavy metal performance.
But this is just her imagination.
To prevent that, she pops a single Ramune candy before the test to reset her mindset and focus on the exam.
With a playful touch, the ad highlights how Ramune is perfect for switching gears during study or work breaks.
Calbee Fruzz: “Experiencing Fruzz Strawberry” VersionHaruka Fukuhara
This is a commercial for Calbee’s fruit snack, Fruzz.
Haruka Fukuhara appears in it, and the ad lingers on her savoring a bite of Fruzz.
The direction really conveys the crispy, crunchy texture, and it likely piqued many viewers’ interest in the flavor.
Fukuhara’s natural reactions are memorable as well.
Glico Giant Cone web movie: “The secret that happiness just can’t stop”Haruka Ayase
The Giant Cone commercial featuring Haruka Ayase, titled “The Secret to Happiness You Can’t Stop.” One bite gives you chocolate and nuts, another bite chocolate and ice cream, then a bite of ice cream and cone, and finally a nibble of the layer of chocolate hardened at the very bottom of the cone… Describing this chain as “happiness that won’t stop” is so stylish.
The laid-back rap jingle and Ayase’s smile make you grin right along with her.
It might even make you want to dash to a convenience store or drugstore.

Kameda Seika Happy Turn Spice “Powder Adults Get Hooked On” versionKento Kaku
This commercial shows only Kento Kaku continuously eating Happy Turn Spice, while also depicting a comical exchange with a child who wants it.
By clearly portraying how it’s a powder that adults get hooked on—and how he refuses to give it to the child—it effectively conveys the uniquely addictive flavor.
Morinaga Choco Monaka Jumbo “Jumbo Town” VersionKanjani Eight
It’s a commercial where the members of Kanjani Eight explain the features of the renewed Choco Monaka Jumbo.
It shows the Choco Monaka Jumbo being assembled like at a construction site, which also seems to convey the product’s heft.
The bright expressions of the Kanjani Eight members are another highlight, clearly communicating that it’s easy to enjoy and that the deliciousness comes across directly.
By depicting chocolate walls being inserted into the previous Choco Monaka Jumbo, the ad firmly conveys the evolution of Choco Monaka Jumbo.
Morinaga Confectionery Vanilla Monaka Jumbo: Luxuriously rich, delicious vanilla… and yet a refreshingly clean finish… “World of Vanilla” editionKanjani Eight
It’s a commercial featuring the members of Kanjani Eight dressed in white outfits reminiscent of vanilla ice cream, showcasing the appeal of Morinaga’s Vanilla Monaka Jumbo.
It counters the public perception that it’s just the Chocolate Monaka Jumbo without the chocolate, strongly emphasizing that the Vanilla Monaka Jumbo stands on its own with a unique level of completeness.
The ad particularly highlights the richness of the vanilla, and through playfully exaggerated expressions, it conveys the vanilla’s smoothness.
It ends with shots of the members smiling after taking a bite, clearly communicating how delicious it is.
