Damn, this day sucks. I sure hope some Umacha would save the day. Eh. Chotto matte. Let me just get some. Eeeee, sou da sou da sou da. Here. Take some. As a commercial by Studio Ghibli with an ever so incoherent yet unsurprising key visual, I didn't really know what I was going to be in for. I can tell you now, you are welcomed with a nice commercial for its time. It has the right appearance for it to correlate with what it is selling, everything is pretty much chill overall and the advert doesn't have anything that wouldn't make it memorable, the art and to some extent, the situations were enough.

As the situations pictured focus on adulthood, it is clear who this advertisement is meant to cater to, and how the product sold may change one's life for the better, even for a bit. Art: 8 Studio Ghibli's distinctive palette really shines, with its ethereal lightness, and simplistic characters. What the visual delicacy…
