A new CM starring Gen Hoshino and Riho Yoshioka has been getting a lot of attention both online and on Japan’s television screens.
In the CM Gen is eating one of Nissin’s famous instant noodles, this one in particular comes with a giant piece of tofu. Through the fog of his glasses he noticed someone else in the room with him, a mysterious fox girl played by Riho Yoshioka. Stunned by her appearance, he still continues to eat but it seems like the fox girl and tofu are somehow “synced” together. “The mysterious story of ours begins…” what will happen in the next part?
The CM is being highly praised for it’s cute and unique concept. The 30 second version of the CM, as well as a making-of can be seen below the jump.

One of Japan’s most popular online web portals goo decided to hold a ranking for Hello!Project‘s most bizarre song title names.
The former main figurehead and producer of Hello!Project Tsunku is an extremely eccentric man, and that tends to be showcased in Hello!Project’s lyrical content and the song names themselves. For many years now this tended to set them apart of the average idol group, and a funny topic that many fans can bond over. It also made many of Hello!Projects songs quite memorable due to the unique/odd name of the songs.
goo opened the polls and asked the wota what they thought were Hello!Project’s more bizarre song title names. 250 men and 250 women took part in the survey. Check out the top 40 ranking below the jump
