Two new TV commercials have been released for the corporate ICT service "QT PRO" (QTnet, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City), featuring the seven Kamen Riders from the popular special effects drama series "Kamen Rider": "Cloud: 'The Glorious Seven Riders'" and "Vulnerability Diagnosis: 'Shocker Hideout'".
Following on from last year, the company has used Kamen Rider, a popular national hero, in its commercials as a character symbolizing the reliability and security of its service, as well as "robust protection." In addition to Kamen Rider 1, 2, V3, and Riderman, this year Kamen Rider X, Amazon, and Stronger have been added.
In the "Cloud: The Glorious Seven Riders" episode, the challenges that companies face when using cloud services are likened to attacks from a monster army, and the seven Kamen Riders defeat the monsters and save the company from anxiety and threats. The highlight of the episode is the special moves that the riders unleash in succession.
The "Vulnerability Assessment: Shocker Hideout" episode depicts the Shocker group's self-destruction as their hideout explodes in a cyber attack. Highlights include the lament of the leader, who regrets his neglect of information security measures, saying, "If only we had taken measures...", and the comical behavior of the Riders, who are bewildered by the Shocker hideout destroying itself before their eyes.
It will begin airing in the Fukuoka area from July 17. The YouTube "QTnet Official Channel" also has a director's cut version that includes footage that didn't make it into the commercial, as well as making-of footage.
