[Ano-chan]The 23-second silent web commercial is now a broadcast accident! A new Amano commercial in which Ano repeatedly says "Ano, Amano" has begun airing

■ “The word ‘Ano’ is said many times, so that’s one of the highlights. It’s only two letters, so it was a really easy experience for me.” (Ano)

Ano, also known as “Ano-chan,” will appear in Amano Corporation’s new TV commercial, “Ano, Amano,” which will air nationwide from June 11th.

In this new commercial, Ano expresses Amano, a company that has developed a variety of businesses in the fields of time and air, through her own unique worldview, and features Ano dressed in a pop outfit against a white background.

The scene begins with Ano standing relaxed, and when she mutters “Um, Amano,” the line appears in an animated speech bubble.

Afterwards, he plays the guitar, peers through the fisheye lens, and repeatedly says “Ano, Amano” with that same expression. Each time, the typography of “Ano, Amano” appears in a speech bubble and is animated.

Afterwards, Ano mutters, “Which Amano are you talking about?” and the narrator responds, “The Amano of time, the air, the Amano,” to which Ano responds by whispering, “That’s it.” The catchy copy repeated in Ano’s unique voice makes for a memorable commercial.

They also released a web commercial called “Catchphrase,” in which Ano remains silent for 23 seconds, which is almost like a broadcast accident.

Although she looks like she wants to say something, she doesn’t say anything and has an exquisite expression on her face. Finally, her expression suddenly changes and she says to the camera, “Umm, Amano.”

Both commercials use Ano’s unique character to promote the name “Amano.”

■That Interview
Q: Please tell us your impressions of today’s shoot. Also, please tell us which scenes were most memorable and what are the highlights of the shoot.
I hadn’t shot in such a beautiful white background before, so it was a fresh experience. I often shoot in cluttered places, so I felt like I was able to do it in a beautiful way. I say “um” many times, so that’s a highlight. It’s only two letters, so I had a very easy time.

Q: You recently appeared in Amano’s new commercial. What did you think when you received the offer?
I was really happy because I didn’t think I would get an offer like this. I still don’t know why they chose me, but it was fun and we were a good match.
Q: Amano also provides a cleaning robot service. Is there any cleaning incident that you’ve had recently that you’d like to completely forget?
I’ve been doing a lot of drama shoots in the first half of the year, and I haven’t forgotten any of the lines I learned at the time, so I want to forget about it completely and quickly. Also, I’ve been drawing pictures with paints recently, and I washed them with the paints in my pocket. I don’t wash my clothes that often, but I tried my best and ended up with a bright blue T-shirt. It’s something I’d like to forget as a human being. At the time I thought it was the worst, but I forgot about it when I went to sleep.
Q: Your outfit this time was sporty and casual with gorgeous decorations, but are there any personal fashion trends you have noticed recently in your private life?
I love tracksuits and have loads of them. I’ve been wearing a lot of lace this year. Even my socks are lace. I often wear skirts with frills and match them with tracksuits. Also, although it’s not fashion, attaching key chains to your bag or other items as fashion accessories is quite popular, so I do that too. This time my costume was custom made and has “AMANO” written on the front and “ANO” on the back, so I’m happy that it has my name on it. It also has cool beads on it, which is nice.
Q: You seem to be good at playing the guitar as you play it in commercials, but are there any special skills you would like to perfect this summer or new hobbies you would like to take up?
I’m really good at taking photos. I’m really good at taking photos of people, but I don’t say it much. I don’t have many friends, so I don’t take many photos, but I’m so confident that I can take a really good photo after about two shots. I thought it might be fun to master the camera and make a photo book of the photos I took.
Q: When you look back on the first half of this year, is there any memorable event that you can say “that was it”?
It’s “Mixed rice”. It has nothing to do with food, but I’ve been shooting movies and dramas for a long time, and I was running my own tour while doing that, so my head was always in a mixed rice state, and I did everything I could to the point that I don’t remember doing anything else.
Q: Is there anything you would like to challenge yourself with or are looking forward to in the remaining six months?
“Um, porridge.” In the first half of the year, it was like a mixed rice, but in the next six months, I want to do a variety of work so that I can swallow it up even more. So in the second half of the year, I want to do live shows properly, but also try various things.
Q: Please give a message to everyone watching the commercial.
This time, I’ll be saying “Ano, Amano” a lot, so please remember this as a must. Please say “Ano, Amano”! I’ll be saying it while carrying my guitar, so please watch a lot!
