Idols sell a lot of stuff. A loot. So, here’s my top list of the five idol commercial\/cross-promotions that I find to be the most interesting\/fun.<\/p>\n
5. W Sells Cannibal Pancakes. <\/b><\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nI really wanted to put the one where W sells acne cream instead of this, but the idea of W force feeding pancakes to pancakes is kind of hilarious; W promotes cannibalism folks. No wonder Kago and Tsuji had scandals.<\/p>\n4. Morning Musume sells Pocky!<\/b><\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nIt’s a classic, what can I say? Ishiyoshi at the end, Morning Musume being chased by a gorilla who is probably Tsunku with his creeper face at the end. Also, Morning Musume did a LOT with Glico and pocky, having Yes! Pocky Girls on the 5th album and a 2 minute video of each member tasting mousse pocky and going “OH IT’S LIKE SEX IN THE MOUTH.” So. Classic gets 4th.<\/p>\n3. “Yes, I need to sell some tea. Or crackers. Or rice. Or soap?” “Call Matsuura Aya!”<\/b><\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nKind of cheating, but seriously. Ayaya can sell ANYTHING. The above is Ayaya singing with a couple of models backdancing. Uh, yeah, that made me want to buy some pretz.<\/p>\n<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\n^THAT is to sell tea. I don’t even know what’s going on. But I feel like a lot of the time advertisers are like “what to do to sell tea… CALL AYA.”<\/p>\n<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nShe just sings. And pours tea. And this is considered effective sales tactics. Therefore, Ayaya can sell anything to anyone.<\/p>\n2. What do I want for Dinner? Ohhhhhhh MEAT!! \ud83d\ude00<\/b><\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nAgain, slightly cheating. It’s Rika. But seriously; “Hmm, we want to sell meat… Ishikawa Rika singing and dancing!” And apparently this song (Rika singing different types of beef products) was played in grocery stores. Kind of fantastic. I approve.<\/p>\n1. “Buy this juice to drink it with me!” *WOTA BUY JUICE*<\/b><\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nSeriously, this is the best promotion ever. Get the most popular idol group right now and get them to dress up as vegetables and sing a song involving vegetable names. It’s even a catchy song; I’ve found myself going around singing “yasaiiii oh woah woah shisutazu!” to myself before I even realized I was singing about vegetables.<\/p>\nEven though this is really catchy as a song and is really entertaining as a PV (I have this deep love for the costumes; I WANT the asparagus costume Sae is wearing. I’d wear it out and about.) the real genius here is in the other videos that exist.<\/p>\n<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nThat’s right. A video that’s JUST your idols drinking juice. The title has “together” in it so I assume the video’s basically “drink juice with me!” If this isn’t an amazing tactic I don’t know what is. “I want to drink juice with my idol! Let’s go out and buy this brand so I can feel connected to Lovetan\/Miichan\/Acchan\/whoever.” The sad thing is, if I were in Japan I’d totally do that.<\/p>\nSo therefore, the Yasai Sisters of AKB48 are THE best idol promotions ever!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Idols sell a lot of stuff.

Seriously, this is the best promotion ever. Get the most popular idol group right now and get them to dress up as vegetables and sing a song involving vegetable names. It’s even a catchy song; I’ve found myself going around singing “yasaiiii oh woah woah shisutazu!” to myself before I even realized I was singing about vegetables.<\/p>\n
Even though this is really catchy as a song and is really entertaining as a PV (I have this deep love for the costumes; I WANT the asparagus costume Sae is wearing. I’d wear it out and about.) the real genius here is in the other videos that exist.<\/p>\n
<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/object><\/p>\nThat’s right. A video that’s JUST your idols drinking juice. The title has “together” in it so I assume the video’s basically “drink juice with me!” If this isn’t an amazing tactic I don’t know what is. “I want to drink juice with my idol!
