History ProductPlacement / AnimeAndManga

* On top of it Anime/HighspeedEtoile being a collaboration between racing leagues, a ton of real life product placement for various products like Clip Studio Paint and Chill Out as well as companies like Honda and Takara Tomy are plastered over cars, the race track, and racer uniforms.

!!Parodies (''Star★Twinkle Pretty Cure™''):

** The first page of chapter 5 shows [[http://www.mangapark.com/manga/vulgar-ghost-daydream/v2/c5/1 Misaki playing]] ''[[VideoGame/FZero F-Zero]]'' on UsefulNotes/GameboyAdvance. She says she likes it and thinks about [[http://www.mangapark.com/manga/vulgar-ghost-daydream/v2/c5/3 buying a link cable]] for it.

** Not only Windows 95, but the computer's blatantly a ''[[UsefulNotes/PC98 NEC PowerMate]]'' (for the uninitiated, NEC was the creator of the UsefulNotes/TurboGrafx16, and it's semiconductor business fabricated [=CPUs=] for Sega back in the 32x, Saturn and Dreamcast days). They also made desktop computers and notebooks up until recently, when they decided to discontinue these to focus on the server and supercomputing sector.

* In ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED'', Clotho Buer can be seen playing with his Bandai UsefulNotes/WonderSwan, called within the show the "Great Wonder Swan XXX".

** In the second movie, there is a Lawson Convenience Store ''inside Nerv Headquarters.'' Asuka also uses a UsefulNotes/WonderSwan-brand handheld gaming console.

** During its climax, ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable Diamond is Unbreakable]]'' draws special attention to a Pepsi billboard [[ShoutOut that gets]] [[Film/BackToTheFuture struck by lightning]]; the AnimatedAdaptation keeps it Pepsi rather than coming up with a BlandNameProduct. Also, Reimi Sugimoto uses sticks of Pocky as part of a fortune-telling game. There's even a shot of the box and logo.

* In chapter 3 of the ''LightNovel/IsekaiIzakayaNobu'' manga adaptation, when [[IntimidatingRevenueService the tax collector, Gernot]], first entered the Nobu and encountered his TrademarkFavoriteFood of Napolitan, due to the fact that [=McIlhenny=] Co. Tabasco Brand Pepper Sauce is in fact the condiment of choice,[[labelnote:*]]In fact according to this [[https://youtu.be/xQKQ-OGg3AQ&t=313 video]], Japan is the 2nd biggest consumer of Tabasco sauce after the US[[/labelnote]] it gets a [[https://i.imgur.com/OszWx15.jpg plug]].

* ''Anime/{{Area 88}}''

* In ''LightNovel/CatPlanetCuties'', the characters eat hamburgers with very prominent A&W logos visible on the wrappers.

* In Season 2 of ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'', Shizuo and Tom are shown eating at a Lotteria fast food restaurant.

* A couple of the ''LightNovel/TheGardenOfSinners'' movies prominently feature Haagen-Dazs strawberry ice cream, even tying it into the character development.

* ''The Disappearance of LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'':

* And Pizza Hut strikes again in the 4th season of ''LightNovel/MariaWatchesOverUs'', where the logo is often prominently displayed in the background, even in an amusement park.

* In the first episode of ''LightNovel/NyarukoCrawlingWithLove'', Nyarko drags Mahiro to a bookstore where several manga and light novels published by GA Bunko (who publishes ''Nyarko-san'' itself) show up. You can also see posters advertising ''Nyarko-san'', specifically its anime adaptation -- [[MindScrew which you're currently watching]].

* ''LightNovel/SuperCub'' features the titular motorbikes prominently, both in promotional posters for the novel and in the official website. In a later episode of the anime, Honda's Ultra G1 Engine Oil cans are featured. Later, the protagonist buys a raincoat from a "Up Garage" auto parts store.

* ''Franchise/JoJosBizarreAdventure'':

** During its climax, ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable Diamond is Unbreakable]]'' draws special attention to a Pepsi billboard [[ShoutOut that gets]] [[Film/BackToTheFuture struck by lightning]]; the AnimatedAdaptation keeps it Pepsi rather than coming up with a BlandNameProduct.
** Also in Part 4, Reimi Sugimoto uses sticks of Pocky as part of a fortune-telling game. There's even a shot of the box and logo.
** When Trish first appears in the Part 5 anime, one of the items she demands the boys pick up for her is some Givenchy blush. The blush is later shown prominently when Formaggio sneaks into gang's rental car, complete with a lingering shot of the company's logo. Not surprisingly, Givenchy was listed as a sponsor in the episode's end credits.

** The former astronomy club has a Vixen A80Mf telescope. Vixen Optics is a Japan-based company that produces a variety of lenses, telescopes, binoculars, and spotting scopes.

* [[Anime/FLCLProgressiveAndAlternative FLCL Alternative]] features Kana and her friends referencing Dr. Pepper and using their soda bottles to make bottle rockets.

** One of the concept cars has a numberplate that includes the sequence 3923. [[BilingualBonus Said aloud in Japanese, it's San Kyu Ni San (Thank You Nissan).]]

* The Christmas episode of ''Anime/{{Aggretsuko}}'' features Instagram heavily, with Retsuko finally getting hooked on it by her Tsunoda, her social media obsessed coworker. It isn't necessarily seen as a good thing, as Haida notes that [[BreakingTheFourthWall Instagram probably won't like the episode.]]

* A chapter of ''Chibi Sasuke's Sharingan Legend'' features Sasuke buying a copy of ''Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution''
** Similarly, the final chapter of the series features Naruto and Sasuke playing on a Nintendo Switch.

* ''Anime/TigerAndBunny'' straight-out made all of their superheroes wear hero suits fully printed with real-life animation production sponsors. Which was lampshaded on the series' first episode.

* In the Kid's teleportation arc of ''Manga/DetectiveConan'', Gosho Aoyama snuck in a reference to ''Manga/PsychicSquad'' which is only marginally relevant and more likely to be a product placement for a ''[[Magazine/ShonenSunday Sunday]]'' comic (which ''Detective Conan'' also is), given that we're talking about an adult man (Kogoro Mori) who's never shown that he's an {{Otaku}} referencing a comic about young ESP girls who teleport. He awkwardly shoehorned the names of two of the three main girls into a conversation about a Main/PhantomThief.

* ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'':
** In the anime, James occasionally has a set of reference cards if Team Rocket happens upon a new Pokémon. When 4Kids still had the dub of the anime, they'd sometimes cut these scenes out because of potential advertisement for the Pokémon TCG. Sometimes they would just remove the borders on the cards to make them look less like the real world TCG cards.

** While [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion the original TV series]] was very big on BrandX products, the ''Rebuild'' movies often have shot-for-shot recreations of scenes from the show. So scenes that originally had generic pizza boxes and soda cans in the background now have Pizza Hut and Pepsi logos plastered everywhere.
** Also Doritos, Yebisu beer (not [[Anime/OruchubanEbichu Yebichu]]), and UCC Coffee (whew!). Most of these have accompanying packaging advertising the movie as well.

* ''LightNovel/SuperCub'' features the titular motorbikes prominently, both in promotional posters for the novel and in the official website. In a later episode of the anime, Honda's Ultra G1 Engine Oil cans are featured. Later, the protagonist buys a raincoat from a Up Garage auto parts store.

** There's the fact that Shinji's DAT walkman has the Sony logo prominently displayed on it (and is in fact based on an actual Sony Walkman, said Walkman tends to command a high price whenever one shows up for sale on Yahoo Auctions Japan or Mercari despite slight design differences) and a Sony CRT TV and Mitsubishi Fuso trucks made an appearance in Episode 2.
