A real American Japanese hero. Did I mention they made a game for this guy?

The thing about making witty signature lines is that it first needs to actually be witty.

Pepsiman's O-faces of Pepsi delight as he cums/drinks carbonated beverage scare the fuck out of me.

The Pepsiwoman at the end is kind of disturbing.

It's like if Ultraman's brother had a fetish for pepsi and spreading it around the world...

I like how Pepsiman is the Butt-Monkey in nearly all of his commercials.

Slamming into windows, getting his face squirted with water from some brat, falling off the edge of a mountain, getting his head stuck at the bottom of a pool, being used as a punching bag, turning into a cactus, being hit by a Coca Cola truck, having his face pulled off and running into ghosts.

It doesn't sound like much fun being Pepsiman.

I wouldn't say stealthy so much as "Ha! You suck but you can't sue us."

The commericals are pretty accurate to the game, with all the crashing into things.

Actually, it's the commercials that resulted in the game.

Try watching this video with a straight face. You can't. I tried.

Wait, lemme try embedding this...

PEPSIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!

Now that's what I call an awesome advertising campaign. I don't see why they only ran these in Japan. I mean, most of the commercials are in English, so it's not like localization would be a problem. Even the video game is mostly in English. What's up with that?

I'm still jealous that Japan kept Segata Sanshiro to itself. Can you imagine what would happen if Pepsiman and Segata teamed up? The sheer manly Japanese marketing power would be so strong that everyone would go bankrupt from buying Pepsi and Sega products. I don't even like Pepsi (it's my least favorite soda, as is Coke), but these commercials make me want one really badly.

If I ever get a Japanese Playstation, Pepsiman is the first game I'm getting for it.

I used to have a bootlegged CD of the game. Really nostalgic. My friend use to come around and play it together.

The way I heard it, Pepsiman was designed to be what the Japanese think American mascots are like.

But I agree with you, Pepsi could easily rerun these commercials in other countries to get reactions like, "What are these wacky Asian hijinks? This grabs my attention!"
