Brazil may be known for its football community, yet the Nissin 'Samurai in Brazil' commercial shows that other cultures have some skill as well. Channeling their ancient past, instant ramen giant, Nissin, shows the world and the locals of Brazil just what the Japanese are made of. Of course, they also send a strong message that much of this skill is due to a cup of instant noodles.
Throughout the Nissin 'Samurai in Brazil' commercial, the samurai is seen performing for children and battling teens with quick feet and acrobatic movements. It stars Japanese freestyle footballer Tokuda Kotaro, who has a string of wins under his belt including freestyle world championships. Utterly impressive, the campaign will get people excited to see what Japan brings to their matches.
