This is a long running series for Suntory Boss, Rainbow Mountain Coffee. I never had the rainbow mountain coffee when I was in Japan sadly, but I did have hot canned coffee from a a vending machine which was awesome. Let me say that again, I GOT HOT COFFEE. IN A CAN. FROM A VENDING MACHINE.
Anyway, the idea is that an alien comes to Earth to investigate and disguises himself as Tommy Lee Jones. He finds the coffee to be wonderful on this useless planet.
check these out.

Fanta!
Today I present to you a series of Fanta ads that ran in japan chronicling a school somewhere in Japan with a set of very interesting teachers. It seems like it would incredibly awesome and seriously frustrating at the same time to attend that school.
I like the way it had 9 executions! By the 3rd one I was excited to see what antics were going to happen next. Mr. DJ (DJ Sensei) was a badass. Overall a good example of a strong campaign...although I think it was aimed at children of a younger age which is a bit of an ethics issue.
I wonder what laws Japan has regarding advertising towards children, and just in general.

Keirin Ads!
My good friend in Japan sent these too me last night and also explained the Arnold Ad. Look back and then read on.
This post is doubly good for me because it combines two things that I love: Advertising and Bicycle track racing.
These ads show off Keirin Racing, an awesome Japanese past time. You can think of these racers as the greyhounds of American betting tracks. They live on there bikes and are pretty much monsters on the track. People in Japan view bicycle racing as an honorable career, often aspiring from young ages to become racers, which is why these ads are focusing on an emotional appeal.
