Memorable Commercials [July 2025] (81–90)
You and ITokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra
Life happens only once and moves in one direction—it’s a calm, reflective vibe for this commercial.
In the visuals, that irreplaceable journey through life is represented by balloons floating in the sky.
The background music is Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra’s song “Kimi to Boku” (“You and I”).
The whistling is particularly striking, and it’s actually from the original track—not a special arrangement for the commercial.
Since Skapara is often associated with a dazzling brass sound, it leaves a surprisingly fresh impression.
Every SecondMina Okabe
This commercial introduces Panasonic’s dismantling factory, highlighting their initiative to return collected items to clean materials and transform them into new forms.
The careful attention given to objects that have been used for a long time conveys a sense of affection and warmth toward the products.
The music that further accentuates the warm atmosphere of the footage is Mina Okabe’s “Every Second.” Its light, gentle sound is striking, and combined with her soft, tender vocals, it speaks directly to the heart.
GOOD DAYMrs. GREEN APPLE
This is an introductory commercial for Kirin Good Ale, a new product from Kirin Beer launching in October 2025, featuring Motoki Omori of Mrs.
GREEN APPLE.
He talks about his thoughts while creating the song written specifically for this commercial, and the excitement that comes with new beginnings.
The background music is that newly written track, titled “GOOD DAY.” It’s a gentle, life-affirming song that carries a message of taking life at an easy pace.
It’s a fun track everyone can sing along to with a cheerful “la la la.”
20TH CENTURY BOYT-REX
This commercial expresses our commitment to pursuing the deliciousness of Dry Crystal and our desire to surpass Super Dry in taste.
It depicts Ryusei Yokohama drinking Dry Crystal, and through the change in his expression, powerfully conveys that sharpness has been achieved.
The song that fully amplifies the powerful atmosphere of the visuals is T.
Rex’s “20th Century Boy.” The boldly resonant band sound is striking, and combined with the almost throwaway vocal delivery, it creates a powerful yet refreshing vibe.
Before I forgetVaundy
This is a Tokyo Metro campaign commercial called Find my Tokyo, which proposes rediscovering Tokyo’s charms.
This time we’re introducing two spots: the “Brand new season” version, which shows various neighborhoods across Tokyo, and the “Ueno_Everything is Art” version, which focuses on the Ueno area.
Both commercials not only let you discover each neighborhood’s appeal, but also inspire you to go find new charms on your own.
The background music is Vaundy’s song “Wasureru Mae ni” (Before I Forget).
Released in September 2025, it features nostalgic lyrics set to a gentle melody that make it especially captivating.
Karuta for YouICO
This commercial introduces Aqura Home’s wooden houses, opening with a scene where three characters—a giraffe, an owl, and a sheep—discuss their ideal home.
It highlights that a wooden structure can meet the characters’ wishes for a spacious, open, and sturdy house.
The background music features “Kimi e no Karuta,” an original song written by the band iCO specifically for this commercial.
It’s an energizing track marked by vocalist Yui Yoshikuni’s powerful singing.

Like the flow of a riverKiyosaku
Titled “Nama-Hige” (Foam Mustache), this Suntory Draft Beer commercial is striking for the way the cast savor their beer and is also charming for its humorous direction.
“Nama-hige” refers to the foam that sticks around your mouth when you drink draft beer, and the performers are all sporting splendid foam mustaches! The BGM is ‘Like the Flow of the River.
’ The original is by Hibari Misora, but this CM uses the familiar version sung by Kiyosaku.
