Memorable Commercials [July 2025] (181–190)
GALAXYRIP SLYME
This is a SoftBank commercial introducing the Galaxy Z Fold7.
A giant Galaxy Z Fold7 appears, and there’s a striking scene where Ryota Bando steps inside its screen, along with the familiar “Father Dog” from the commercials playing a game—memorable visuals abound.
It’s a slightly unconventional way of presenting the product, but it likely piqued many viewers’ interest in the new device.
The background music is another highlight: a parody version of RIP SLYME’s “GALAXY,” chosen to match the product name.
For those who listened to the song in real time in the 2000s, the unexpected reunion with a nostalgic tune must have been thrilling.

SceneSPARTA
This commercial portrays an athlete who, despite carrying anxiety, continues to work hard in pursuit of results, while also conveying Pocari Sweat’s desire to support that effort.
The footage comparing the athlete to their past self is striking, expressing—amid a sense of tension—that effort bears fruit little by little.
The song that further accentuates the distinctive tension depicted in the visuals is “Scene” by SPARTA.
Built on a tense track layered with spoken, conversational rap, its gradually intensifying progression evokes a sense of forward-looking strength.
Chase the ShineSPYAIR
SPYAIR’s “Chase the Shine,” released in 2025, is a track that exudes the momentum of charging straight toward the goal.
It opens with a section centered on electric guitar and vocals, then gradually builds toward the chorus, conveying a sense of power being unleashed.
The lyrics depict steadily working toward the finish line and the determination to run through, giving listeners a strong push forward.
The song was also used in a boat racing commercial, effectively highlighting the energy and strength of the visuals.
Chase the ShineSPYAIR
This commercial shows the morning exercises that are part of a boat racer’s daily routine and delves into the spirit of a veteran racer played by Takashi Sasano.
Boat racing is a sport where people of all ages and genders can excel, and Seiichi Takatsuka—the model for Sasano’s character—continued to compete as an active racer even past the age of 70.
In this CM, Nako Yabuki highlights how Sasano approaches boat racing to his junior, Oshiro Maeda, and many viewers were likely moved by that attitude.
The BGM features SPYAIR’s “Chase the Shine.” Alongside imagery evocative of boat racing, the lyrics depict someone forging their own path with the resolve of “I absolutely don’t want to lose!”—a message that ignites the listener’s spirit.
BOY MEETS GIRLTRF
This is a Kirin Ichiban commercial featuring Hikari Mitsushima, whose cheerful singing leaves a strong impression.
Mitsushima dances light steps to the rhythm of the song, and her buoyant mood feels contagious even through the screen.
By the way, the tune she’s humming is TRF’s signature 1994 hit “BOY MEETS GIRL.” Set to the era-defining TK sound, it portrays a love story that makes the heart flutter.
Katakago Flower ~Spring Fairy~TOMOMI
This is a conceptual commercial that warmly portrays the relationship between people and windows.
It presents the view outside the window not merely as the outdoors, but connects it with uplifting words such as a vast, beautiful world, the future, and hope.
It conveys YKK AP’s philosophy of how they perceive windows.
The background music features an original song created for this commercial, “Katakago no Hana ~Spring Fairy~.” Tomomi’s gentle vocals and the calm melody are a perfect match, resulting in a soothing track that heals the heart.
