Yes, Production I.G created ads for a drink called Aquarius, and according to anime!anime!, those ads have placed Aquarius into of the top 1,000 brands of 2009. That may not sound like a lot, but over 9,000 (no, literally-- 9,211) ads were eligible. Of those I.G's ads weren't just in the top thousand, they actually placed #147.
Congratulations, Production I.G! Without further ado, here is one of the ads in question.
What do you think? I would buy this drink. I could stand to be a better golfer.


























Yep that definitely looks like a Japanese energy/sports drink commerical.
You know, I had an idea for a video game like that. The golf parts that is. It would be like... devil may cry meets tiger woods golf.
Like, one stage you're playing on the back of a titan, and have to complete all 18 holes before he wakes up from his nap. Plus, before you can swing, you have to fight through zombies to get to the ball.
Add in ninja techniques of a golfer (shadow clone the golf balls in air and use the best landing, etc .etc) and you've got a great game.
