“Hello again!” Todomatsu nods, gesturing to all the pink. “It is! A super special day with a super special idol, right?” He lights up at the suggestion. “Ooh, long distance selfie time. How about I make half of a hand-heart to my left, and you do the other half to your right? Everyone can join in! You can post your #pink4totty selfies with a twist today! Share the love, ok?” His phone is soon revealed to have the same faux whipped cream swirls and glazed strawberry slices that his hat does. “Say ‘sweets!’”
((I’m just saying
To clarify
From the source or the source even though totty will deny it
He is 100% getting as much innocent looking innuendo in his ads as possible because lOOK AT ME PLEASE IM CUTE RIGHT
WHY ARE YOU THIRSTING OVER CHORO LOOK AT ME))
SMALL SWEET AND FAKE AS FU K (。-`ω ́-)
Todomatsu holds up a pack of somewhat cheapish gummy snacks. “I know, I should have gone for the ones made with actual fruit, but I was in a hurry!” He pouts, and there’s a gleam in his eyes that can only be described as not in my house, bitch.
Totty are you aware that you are a jelly bean
Totty giggles at that little comment. “A jelly bean! That’s a new one. I was going for a strawberry parfait sort of look, but! As long as you think I’m small, sweet, and irresistible, I won’t be picky!”
Aww Totty, you should’ve let me lick the cream from your lips! How unfair of you to be such a cute tease~!
Todomatsu still has the telltale twitch of a suppressed smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as he tries to look innocent and clueless. “Oh, no! Was I? I didn’t realize I was teasing you, honest to goodness!” Not even a little honest, he’s desperate for attention. “I’m sorry, I can’t rewind time, but I can certainly hope that the next time you top something with whipped cream, you’ll think of me. Is that a deal, sweetheart?” He winks and smiles a bit more broadly.
Todomatsu smiles as soon as the camera focuses, the backdrop draped in shades of pink and cream. Naturally, he’s dressed up to match with one of his trademark hats on top, adorned with swirls of fake whipped cream and glazed strawberries.
“Totty here, with a singalong livestream! Campaigning for,” he briefly sings the brand name, “Canta!” He pulls the studio mic further in frame so they can at least see the pop filter. “I’m going to be singing along with some of my top favorite songs at the moment, and answering the questions you send my way until midnight!” He leans close to the mic, shyly murmuring, “Be gentle with me, ok?” He snickers and pulls up the equally prettily decorated headphones and clicks.
“Now, for my first song to start this off adorably! My Party by Kero Kero Bonito, as a big thanks to the person who suggested Flamingo during Matsunatsumatsuri! Not everyone can be in the same room, but this is one big party across the world, right?”
He can’t help but bounce excitedly in his seat; despite the fact that he was kicking it off alone, the thought of throwing a big party for his fans was enough to make him a smiley giggly mess as he nearly giggles his way through the rap section. He’s in his element, and his element is Cutonium.
CM 1: Todomatsu
Todomatsu’s commercial doubles as a (somewhat fictionalized) behind the scenes video of his print ad photoshoot. He sits on the edge of a bowl filled with what appears to be giant strawberries and piped-in whipped cream, a matching swirl atop his head and half of a massive sliced-open strawberry in his hands. He strikes several adorable poses, letting the staffers reposition him as they please.
“These are a lot more exhausting than I thought they’d be,” says the voiceover. “Dozens of people, so much prep time, sitting in an uncomfortable place in clothes you’ve never seen before under bright, hot lights while dozens of people stare at you and prod you into place.”
Someone says something or other, rendered unintelligible by the echoes of the soundstage, and Todomatsu instantly slumps backwards into the oversized fake dessert with a whine of “I’m so thirsty!”
His frilly sleeves and pink velvet breeches clash with the industrial look of the cement floor and the stands holding up the lights. He sips a pale pink drink that matches his clothes and makes an almost ridiculously satisfied little noise. There’s a yell of “Todomatsu, we need you back for close-ups!” He takes one more sip, and walks back with a sigh.
The commercial ends with Todomatsu holding up a properly sized version of the massive bowl he was perched on earlier, the crystal pressed to one rosy cheek. Totty’s wide eyed and a little pouty, a small blob of cream on his bottom lip. He licks it away and smiles bashfully as his voiceover chirps, “Strawberries and cream!”
The jingle plays, a quick little tune with just his voice and some sparkly little synthesizer chords. “Sing a song for Canta!”
((Todomatsu’s day starts now!))

Yet another ad campaign!
Companies can’t deny the numbers: these boys sell. That’s why they’re doing yet another ad campaign! This time, it’s for a soda with a long history of singers in its commercials, one that definitely isn’t a Fanta brand knockoff, Canta! (Bad puns!)
Each day this week, a different sextuplet will unveil their commercial, and host a livestream where they’ll answer questions and play a few of their favorite tunes, a massive online sing-along! It’ll begin in reverse order, starting with Todomatsu on Sunday, and ending with Osomatsu on Friday!
You can start sending in your questions now, but be sure to only ask one at a time, and clearly note who it’s for!
Get ready for the sugar rush and sing a song for Canta!
