The “Sequel: A Perfect Afternoon” version features Yutaka Takenouchi relaxing in the living room, saying, “I’m not doing anything else today,” and enjoying a beer.
Meanwhile, in the “Sequel: A Happy Afternoon” version starring Hana Kuroki, she enjoys a beer along with chilled summer vegetables.
It seems both of them are enjoying beer just the way they like, and many beer lovers who saw them probably felt a twinge of envy.
The background music is Bittersweet Samba, a familiar tune from Kinmugi commercials and known as the theme song of All Night Nippon.
