Yoda + Nissin Cup Noodles Commercial = Boil Japan

Posted By yonghow on November 23rd, 2011

How awesome is this ??!! Yet Again !!

After summoning some of the country’s most iconic heroes – giant robot Gundam and Slam Dunk manga artist Inoue Takehiko to star in their series of “Ganbarre Japan” motivational commercials in the wake of the Sendai tsunami/earthquake, Nissin Cup Noodle ups the ante with none other than the ultimate badass – Yoda from Starwars –

Now if this doesn’t help Nissin sell an extra cup noodle or two I don’t know what will. The commercial is a whimsical mix of nostalgia and amusement for me, having once worked for Nissin ( on the anime series Freedom Project ) and now Lucasfilm’s ILM.

May the Force be with Japan !
