More fun from Japan: welcome the Hotaru-san!



The same crazy guys who brought you Vending Machine Red and friends, and later the Limon guy from Sprite and his journey across Japan, are now invading unsuspecting communities in Tokyo with a horde of dancers with yellow lights on their butts. It looks like a silly flash mob but they're FIREFLIES (Hotaru-san) and they are advertising a new service from Japanese Internet Service Provider So-Net. Very cute, very Cirque du Soleil. This is going to go viral worldwide.

Great justice and refreshment in Akihabara!

You might have remembered the first time we met Vending Machine Red, the new robot superhero dispensing justice against the thirsts of Japan. Now Vending Machine Red, and his lighter comrade Vending Machine Zero, are bringing their brand of thirst quenching to the capital of the Otaku nation, Akihabara, Tokyo!



Note also that the Vending Machine Red crew are now subtitling their work. Come on, Coke! Buy some time on Adult Swim and watch your sales soar. I'm serious here.
