In Videos: Japanese Fanta Commercials
The first time I saw a Fanta commercial featuring the overly energetic Wanta Fanta song, I thought, "No, I don't wanta," and "Where's my gun?"
Thankfully, not all Fanta commercials give me suicidal tendencies. This series of Japanese Fanta commercials packs the excitement of atypical third grade classes—taught by rockstars, deejays, soap opera stars, and more—into 15 confusing seconds. If I were one of these students, I'd also want to kick back at the end of the day with a cool, refreshing bottle of Fanta. Alas, I don't live in Japan where special flavors like Peach, Tropical Fruits, and Sweety exist, so I probably won't. Watch the commercials after the jump. [via Superpunch]

I love how surreal and confusing some Japanese commercials are. When I lived over there, my favorite flavor of Fanta was the Fanta Melon. It was fluorescent green, didn't taste anything like real melons, but was pure ambrosia. It made a hell of an ice cream float.
