[Y!mobile Commercials] Popular and Historical Commercials Summary [2026] (51–60)

“Y! will do just fine” versionRyusei Yokohama, Riho Yoshioka, Fute-Nyan

Riho Yoshioka and Ryusei Yokohama strike the “Shee!” pose to an arrangement of the Genius Bakabon theme; new Y!mobile TV commercial “Y! de Ii no da” and making-of

Here is a commercial brimming with love for Fujio Akatsuka: alongside a parody of the theme song from his manga Tensai Bakabon, actors Riho Yoshioka and Ryusei Yokohama strike Iyami’s famous “Shee” pose from Akatsuka’s other work, Osomatsu-kun.

It even features Nyarome, the cat character who appears in several of Akatsuka’s manga, making it irresistible for fans.

However, there may not be many Y!mobile users who know these references in real time.

Y!mobile basic plan under 1,000 yen! ‘Hajime-chan Makes an Appearance’ EditionMana Ashida, Tetsurō Degawa, Kazuya Kojima

Mana Ashida jokes with Hajime-chan actor, Unjash’s Kojima?! “There, there, Kojima-chan.” Y!mobile’s new TV commercial ‘Hajime-chan Appears’ and making-of

This is the well-known Y!mobile commercial “Y!mobile’s basic fee is under 1,000 yen! Hajime-chan Appears,” featuring Tetsurō Degawa as Papa Bakabon and the very cute Mana Ashida as Bakabon.

Speaking of Bakabon, you can’t forget Hajime-chan, Bakabon’s little brother who’s a baby yet a genius.

As they talk about Y!mobile’s basic fee being under 1,000 yen, in comes Hajime-chan to add that unused data can be rolled over.

Hajime-chan is played by Koji Kojima of the comedy duo UNJASH, and as always, his sharp “tsukkomi” retorts shine in the commercial (lol).

Easy Smartphone 2 “One Easy Smartphone, please” versionMana Ashida, Tomio Umezawa, Futenyan

Mana Ashida’s adorable shop clerk delivers “god-tier service,” making Tomio Umezawa melt! Y!mobile’s new TV commercial “Easy Smartphone, please!” and behind-the-scenes footage

This is a commercial for the “Kantan Smartphone 2,” available from Y!mobile.

Mana Ashida plays a store clerk who persuades customers aged 60 and over to buy the “Kantan Smartphone 2,” with Tomio Umezawa giving a great performance as one such customer.

Futenyan, who teasingly throws the line “It’s easy” at Umezawa—who’s all too easily swayed—is absolutely adorable.

Whether it’s SoftBank’s dog who plays the father or Futenyan, animal characters are indeed soothing and have a strong presence, don’t they?

Giga Boost: ‘Shouting Y at the Center of the World’ VersionRiho Yoshioka, Eita, Fute-Nyan

Riho Yoshioka: Shouting “Giga-Mori” at the Center of the World

“Scream Y at the center of the world”… It sounds kind of familiar, kind of not.

It’s a commercial featuring actor Eita playing a film director and actress Riho Yoshioka playing an actress as herself.

Eita tells her, “Go ahead and scream Y,” and “Also, give me a giga-mori, please,” leaving Riho Yoshioka looking bewildered.

After watching the footage they shot, Eita says, “That was wonderful.” Then Futenyan cuts in with a snarky, “Wonderful how?!”
