Japan is full of commercial songs.

Those who come from abroad and live in Japan may be surprised at how many commercial songs there are in Japan.

Each supermarket, electronics store, and specialty store has its own original song playing in the store.
There are also songs about shopping streets, and there are songs about each product.


For example, in supermarkets, it is said that playing cheesy songs can make customers think that the products are cheap and increase their willingness to buy.


This is a song that is often played in the fresh fish section of supermarkets.
It was created by the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperative Associations. It is an attempt to make a song that children can relate to, and to encourage children to eat fish. This song was a hit.

The song keeps playing in our head.
And most of them are well-paced and easy to remember.
If you've ever had trouble with that song repeatedly going around in your head while you're working, you're totally into their strategy.

And the person who sings that song to you not only lets people know where you shop all the time, but is now the one doing the commercials.

TV commercial strategy is to grab the hearts of children
The same can be said for commercials on TV and You Tube.
There are so many commercials that use songs to enhance the image of the product.

Here is a link to a site I found that has a collection of commercials.


Even more effective is to include a laughing element that children will enjoy.
If the rhythm, word play, and movements are funny, children will quickly learn and sing the song of the product persistently wherever they go.

AGC and paypay are phrases that children seem to like.

Yebisu beer speciality bar in Kyoto

Does anyone here like beer? I like Yebisu beer the best. What is Yebis? Yebisu is the name of this god. He is the god of good fortune who brings prosperity in fishing and business. Yebisu Bar Kyoto Yodobashi  In front of Kyoto station, there is a Yebisu beer speciality bar. In this bar, we can enjoy some kind of Yebisu beer. Here is the menu. There are so many different kinds, it's hard to decide. I chose one based on the chart for acidity and richness. It looked so good that I forgot to take a picture and just took a sip.😂 The beer foam is fine and delicious! Yebisu floated up from the coaster after I enjoyed beer.💕 There is an Yebisu figurine at the counter. . If you look closely, you'll see that Ebisu is holding a beer! Hahaha🤣 Offering money to the gods is probably the Japanese style. May you be blessed.✨ −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−− Yebisu Bar Kyoto Yodobashi  Address Kyoto Yodobashi 1F, 59...

Imagining the personality of the person who wrote the handwriting

Have you ever looked at a character and imagined the personality of the person who wrote it? With the spread of computers and smart phones, we have fewer opportunities to see handwritten characters, but the topic of handwriting and personality does come up once in a while in Japan. When I see the characters with stretchy strokes that protrude from the frame, I hear that they seem to have an open mind. On the other hand, when I see small, evenly spaced letters, I think that the person must be very meticulous. Historical Background This may have something to do with the history of Japan. Let me tell you a story from the Heian period(794-1185). Only the nobility can still read and write. In addition, the Heian period was a time when beautiful things were loved, and intelligence and culture were also signs of wealth for both men and women. Noblewomen do not show their faces in public. In order to meet a woman they are interested in, men first send her a love letter. At this stage, the man ...
