Back when we were kids, we had fun watching an anime titled Doraemon and we enjoyed the funniest misadventures of Doraemon, Nobita, and the gang. What happens if the characters from Doraemon are all grown up? The answer is courtesy of Toyota Motor Corporation for its "ReBORN" campaign and the tagline "FUN TO DRIVE, AGAIN".
Firstly on the
first ad, we saw Japanese actor Satoshi Tsumabuki playing as the 30-year-old Nobita and the Naoya Ogawa played as the 30-year-old Gian, now driving a Toyota Estima. Heh, even 20 years has passed, Gian still picking on Nobita but that's okay.
Later, on the
latest ad, we witnessed Tomohisa Yamashita played as 30-year-old Suneo and Asami Mizukawa playing as the 30-year-old Shizuka. Here, we saw Toyota models like the RAV4, FJ Cruiser, Vellfire, Noah, and Wish. For an added surprise, actor Jean Reno (Wasabi, Leon, Ronin, Mission Impossible, Godzilla) for the first time being Doraemon.
It was like what the heck? How did Mr. Alphard returned to be Doraemon for the Toyota REBORN commercial? It's like he's back! Never mind...
Glad we saw these Doraemon characters all grown up for the Toyota "ReBORN" campaign.
Speaking of which, what's that song played on the commercial? I'll give you the answer, it's Kiseki by GReeeeN.
