Fictional Brands

All the fictional brands I can find gathered up in one place

[animefictionalbrands]

Asahi normally comes in a silver can, so I was thrown off for awhile and thought Yamato was somehow based on Yebisu. But Asahi does make a Lager Beer that comes in a yellow can, with a “rising sun flag” sort of image, a red ribbon thing in the corner, and a cursive subscript on the logo. I think that settles it.

If you check out the list of Television Manufacturers there are a few possible matches for Akami.

Akari was my first guess, but both them and Aiwa have rather heavily stylized logos. So I’m pretty sure it’s this Akai brand, even though their font is rather different.

Akira uses some kind of (milk?) tea to tempt his way out of his DUCK coworker’s clutches. I think it is likely Kochakaden’s Royal Milk Tea. It has a red ribbon on it and a similarly shaped bottle.  If it’s not that it’s Lipton, but Lipton is kind of boring.

There are a million different wines with the words “grand” and “Château” in the name. (Wines with the word “chotoad” are non-existant.) Most of them have beige labels with a picture of a landscape or house.  What convinced me that they were going for this particular brand was the red text across the top “Mis en bouteille au château.” This was the only brand that had that in common.

The writers and animators of death parade seem to be on team “there was room for two.” 

Though, strictly speaking Jack and Rose weren’t on that bit of wreckage until well after the entire ship was underwater. +1 for artistic vision and context, -1 for lack of painstaking accuracy.

Lucky Strikes are only for the living. The dead have to smoke Lucky Shots instead.

Farah is a men’s clothing brand owned by Perry Ellis International, and seems to exist primary online and one storefront in Covent Garden England. 

The Fara Workshop is a company that makes new items from the fabric of used clothing, and also exists only in Great Britain. 

I’m pretty sure Nanami’s godly powers don’t include transporting herself and a friend to England so there’s probably something I’m missing.

Farah? Looks more like Zara too me :o

[animefictionalbrands]

Yep, you’re right. I’m not very knowledgable about fashionable clothing stores. 

Five internets from me for you.

It is kind of neat how if you turn an exclamation point upside down you get an ‘i’.

Rokka vending machines are quite nice for those rainy spring days when you find a cat.

7up Didn’t start using the “Uncola” wording until the yellow submarine aesthetic became popular, and by that time they had stopped using the “You like it, it likes you” slogan. 

So clearly 9-up was ahead of its time and more efficient as it was using both of these slogans in the 50s. Agil is quite lucky to have a sign like that for his Dicey Cafe.

[animefictionalbrands]

Those two white faced black cats bear zero resemblance to another set of characters whose initials just happen to be MM. 

Though I will say, the heart shaped noses are a nice touch. 

[animefictionalbrands]

Hey that’s a sweet [blocked]MBR[blocked] bag. It’s certainly not an UMBRO bag. 

[animefictionalbrands]

I’m not sure where they get Hybrid out of Umbro, but hey the logo is a dead give away. 

[animefictionalbrands]

Takuya wears his Spicy shirt to beach. If he weren’t in the end class then maybe he could wear a Stussy shirt instead.

Horikoshi Jiro was an aviation engineer. He was also the subject of the Miyazaki film The Wind Rises for which Hideaki Anno provided the voice.

There are a lot of resort hotels in Okinawa that look a lot like this one. Like, a lot. 

Fukuma is also the name of a town that was merged with another one in 2005 and technically doesn’t exist anymore. It’s Fukutsu now. This town is even on the beach and has a few resorts.  Fukuma (Fukutsu) is not on Okinawa. It is on Kyushu.
