A 2012 television advert from Japan for Calbee, featuring their dog mascot Consome Panchi making a comeback.
Return of the Calbee Dog!
Everyone's favorite pupper is back!
Advert[]
We see a woman's head announcing the product on a white background. We then cut to Consome lounging on a field when he sees a boy having some bad luck during a baseball game. Consome attempts to comfort him by asking him to play with him, only for the kid to throw the ball away, which is caught by an actual dog. Consome gets the idea to play fetch, which the kid obliges to and throws the ball down a path. The dogs chase after it and get into a scuffle (the actual dog is now a model on a stick). A while later, Consome (now in bandages) returns holding a bag of Calbee chips. They celebrate.
Why It's Cursed[]
Like the ones before it, Consome Panchi looks creepy and his interactions with the child can be seen as questionable.
Trivia[]
- A second revival ad was made as well. It can be seen here.
