Hatsune Miku and her friends become Pocari ambassadors! Web movies "Winter Moisture" and "Winter Habits" are released!

The "Winter Moisture" and "Winter Habit" web movies featuring Pocari Sweat Ambassador virtual celebrities have been released on Otsuka Pharmaceutical's official YouTube channel, calling for winter Pocari Sweat consumption.

＜Highlights of the "Winter Moisture" web movie
The season when dryness becomes a concern. Hatsune Miku explains why Pocari Sweat is recommended in winter while taking a walk in a park.

Because we are not sweating or exposed to strong sunlight, we tend to forget to stay hydrated in the winter. However, the body in winter is thirsty without realizing it. Pocari Sweat, with its electrolyte balance similar to that of body fluids, is absorbed more quickly than water and keeps the body hydrated for a longer period of time. This winter, let's enjoy the dry season by "Uru-Poka" with Pocari Sweat.

The music is by DECO*27, a producer who has enjoyed great popularity with his rock-based sound and impressive melodies since his debut in 2010 with the album "Ai Ai Theory. The song is "Neo Neon".

＜Highlights of the "Winter Habits" Web Movie
The "Winter Habits" episode depicts the daily habits of the Pocari Sweat Ambassadors to stay healthy.

This winter, people are more health-conscious than ever. Washing hands, gargling, eating, sleeping, and frequent hydration. The Pocari Sweat Ambassador's wish is that "daily efforts will help you stay healthy.

The soft melody of the new song "Stage (lyrics and music by Jimmy Sam P)," which was written by Jimmy Sam P as the theme song for the 5th anniversary of "Hatsune Miku Symphony," a concert of VOCALOID songs performed by a full orchestra that will celebrate its 5th anniversary in 2020, is also noteworthy.
