Meiji Co., Ltd. (President: Katsuya Matsuda / Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo) has announced a new graphic featuring actor Yui Aragaki, who serves as the advertising character for the winter limited chocolate “Melty Kiss”. CM will be released for the first time. The three products “Melty Kiss Premium Chocolat/Melty Kiss Premium Chocolat Bag/Melty Kiss Party Assortment Bag” will be on sale nationwide from October 22, 2024 (Tuesday). This graphic features the catchphrase “You’re happy.” and features a striking expression of Mr. Aragaki smiling at you as he picks up a bottle of Melty Kiss. In addition, the new CM “Shiawase dane” that will be released this year is an unprecedented production that depicts “time spent sharing ‘Melty Kiss’ with loved ones”. For the production, it was my first time shooting with a co-star in 14 years as an advertising character. During the filming of the new commercial, Mr. Aragaki was able to see the friendly demeanor of the two who played friends, and there were many scenes where Mr. Aragaki quickly got to know them and had a good chat. The three of them were in a relaxed atmosphere, as if they were old friends, and the shooting progressed smoothly. When asked in an interview what they talked about with their co-stars, they both said that they were surprised by the fact that they had been watching commercials for “Melty Kiss” since their school days, and that, as seniors in “Melty Kiss,” they talked about eating a cut. He revealed that he was giving advice. In connection with this commercial, when we asked Mr. Aragaki what items are essential for his happy moments, in addition to the familiar “futon,” he came up with a surprising item. When it comes to winter items, Aragaki also loves the kotatsu, and he also shares a little anecdote from his high school days. Also, when asked about the event that he would like to enjoy with someone from now on towards the end of the year, based on the situation of the new commercial, he answered that out of all the events of the year, he actually likes Christmas the most. . On such a favorite day, there are stories of people getting together with family and friends while putting up decorations. Please take a look at the making video, which has a lot of content. Shooting episode Actor Yui Aragaki, who is well-known as the advertising character for Meiji’s “Melty Kiss,” appeared again this year, and new graphics and a new commercial were shot. First, we started by shooting the new graphics. This year, Aragaki appeared wearing a gray beret, a brown tweed coat, and a white knit. The bangs peek out from the beret, giving a mature yet cute impression. During the photo shoot, we made it look like it was winter with snow falling and adjusted the angle of the handle of Melty Kiss to create the perfect photo.

The theme of this year’s commercial is “Sharing happiness.” This is a heartwarming commercial in which two co-stars appear for the first time in the series and enjoy party assortment bags with three different flavors. Mr. Aragaki looks great in winter attire in a snowy white studio. First of all, I would like to say hello to my two co-stars. After exchanging words, we quickly hit it off and started filming. The setting was tea time on a snowy field, and the three of them were chatting happily as they sat around the table and ate “Melty Kisses” from the party assortment bag. As soon as the first cut was over and the OK take was given, the two co-stars and Mr. Aragaki shared their joy with applause. The three of them can be seen happily chatting even in between shots when the cameras aren’t rolling. Mr. Aragaki seemed to be having a lot of fun and chatting more than usual, as the photo shoot took place in a relaxed
atmosphere, as if they were old friends. The staff members watching the show were in a relaxed mood from start to finish, as if they were receiving a “share of happiness.” Keeping that atmosphere intact, the three of us were in perfect harmony during the actual shoot, and the shooting proceeded smoothly in a natural atmosphere. My co-star said to me, “(Mr. Aragaki, who has eaten a lot of food so far), I think he might be able to develop a product,” and although I was surprised, Mr. Aragaki responded, “Perhaps you can make a
handed-handed Melty…?” but! It may be that Mr. Aragaki, who has worked as an advertising character for many years, is able to tell the difference in the taste of previous Melty Kisses. Please take a look at the making of the shooting scene, which is a little different from the previous CM series.

This season has come again this year, and it feels like a special event for me as well. Q) It was my first time filming a commercial for “Melty Kiss” with my co-stars. How was it working together? That’s right. (In the 2021 commercial) I had a co-star who was a teddy bear, but it was my first time in that situation, so it was very refreshing. The director’s direction also felt a little different from usual, and I thought we were able to see a new side to the world of Melty Kiss. Q) What kind of talk did you have with your co-stars? We were talking about something very trivial. The two cast members were friendly and cheerful and really brought out the story, so I think we were able to talk naturally. It seems like people have been watching the “Melty Kiss” commercials since they were students, and I realized that they’ve been doing it for that long. Also, since the two of us had a photoshoot of the food cut, it was fun to tell them some tips and how I always do it this way, and to talk about a lot of things. Q) This year’s commercial was about sharing large bags of assorted items that are perfect for parties. How was it after trying it again? All of them are as rich and delicious as the name suggests. In particular, the “Dark Strawberry” had a gorgeous flavor that felt the strawberry flavor the moment I put it in my mouth, and when I took a bite, it spread softly in my mouth, and I thought it was really delicious. Q) Are there any times or situations when you would like to eat such fruity strawberries? Personally, I usually want to eat chocolate when I want to feel relieved, or as a reward. However, “Dark Strawberry” has something like the refreshing taste of strawberries in its richness, so it’s perfect for a change of pace or when you’re trying your best! I thought it might be good for when you want to get more motivated. Q) This year’s theme is “Small winter happiness.” When do you feel “winter happiness”? In terms of seasons, I like winter, so when the smell of the air changes when the seasons change, I feel a little happy just by smelling the scent that says, “The season has changed” or “Winter is coming.” It might happen. You may feel happy when you feel it on your skin. Q) This commercial is about a happy space shared with friends, but are there any items that are essential to accompany Aragaki during his happy moments? The first thing that is absolutely essential is a futon. Also, I’ve always loved manga, and I’ve recently started reading them again, so I think I’d be happy if I could read them in a cozy atmosphere. Also, speaking of wintery items, I really love kotatsu, and when I was in high school I lived in a dormitory, and I was very happy to have a kotatsu at that time, so I thought kotatsu would be a good wintery item. I think so. Q) In the cold winter, we often feel warmth by spending time with people, but are there any stories where being around people warmed your heart or saved you? I think that’s all there is to it. Since I started this job, I have had the opportunity to experience many different things, but I have always been a bit nervous, so when I was younger, I often got nervous before the actual performance. There were times when I received encouragement from the staff, who held my hand, and patted me on the back, and I think they helped me a lot. Other than that, I’ve been involved with other people, so I think it’s all about being saved. Q) The new commercial features a “natural atmosphere where everyone can enjoy together”, but are there any events that you would like to “enjoy with someone” from now until the end of the year? Christmas is my favorite day of the year. On that day, we gather around the table with family and friends, so I hope we can decorate like that and spend time like that again this year. It’s like that with New Year’s Day. You probably get together with your family, friends, and other people a lot. That’s why I think it would be nice to have an assortment pack like this at times like this. Q) Lastly, please give a message to everyone. hello everyone. This is Yui Aragaki. I will be appearing in the new commercial of Melty Kiss, which has snowy lips. Melty Kiss will be released nationwide from October 22nd. This year’s theme is “Sharing Happiness.” Please share your happy feelings with your loved ones with the assortment pack. Please enjoy Melty Kiss. That’s it for Yui Aragaki.
