The new animated commercials for Suntory's green tea brand "Iyemon," "From Iyemon's Car Window," "Bus Edition" and "Hotel Edition," have been released. On December 21, a 90-second special version was shown for one night only during the broadcast of the popular TV anime "Detective Conan" (Yomiuri TV/Nippon TV), and it became a hot topic on social media with comments such as "The Iyemon commercial was just too good," "I want it to be broadcast as an anime!" and "It's only for one night? What a shame," and it became a trending topic on X (Twitter).
Since the three episodes of "From Iyemon's Car Window" - "Teacher and Student Edition," "Brothers Edition," and "Senior and Junior Edition" - were released online in June this year, discussions of the story and characters have been a hot topic on social media. As of November, "Brothers Edition" had exceeded 160,000 "Likes" on Suntory's official TikTok account. In response to the positive reception, sequels to "Brothers Edition," "Bus Edition" and "Hotel Edition," have been released. Tada Keita plays the older brother Dot, and Tanaka Aimi plays the younger brother Nico.
In the "Bus Edition" and "Hotel Edition", in addition to the interactions between Dot and Nico, popular voice actor Takuya Eguchi appears in an "unexpected role". On social media, comments such as "Is it really Eguchi-kun?", "What does that mean?", "I heard that Eguchi-san appears in both new Iyemon commercials so I went to see them, but the one in the hotel...I already knew it, but no matter how many times I hear it I still don't get it, so I'm laughing", and "I'm really curious to see what role the mysterious CV Eguchi-san will play this time lol" have been posted one after another.
