Valkyrie Hunter D Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 I like their Nacho Fries too, but this is just another level: Quote
M'Kyuun Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Just mentioned to the wife this evening that this looks like it'd be a cool show on its own. They definitely spent some money to hire decent animators. There's also a strong Pacific Rim vibe to the commercials as well. It's an odd, but cool choice for advertising fast food. I'm not even a fan of Taco Hell, but I dig their commercials. I really liked the Nacho Fries series of commercials they did a few years ago with James Marsden, and the more recent one with Stranger Things' Joe Keery- "You don't consume me! I consume you!" After those mini-bits of hyperbolic cinema, the next logical step was anime. Next, they need a Shinji Ikari surrogate getting all angsty about huge odd creatures, which are certainly not Angels, taking his Nacho Fries, necessitating his piloting a large humanoid that isn't an Eva to get them back.

TangledThorns Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Well made ad but probably cheaply produced as I've seen similar home made anime on Youtube. I rarely go to TACO BELL but when I do I get their Cinnabon Delights. So f'ing gooooooood!! https://www.tacobell.com/food/sides-sweets/cinnabon-delights-2-pack Quote
Big s Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 I’m surrounded by del tacos, but no Taco Bell close enough to avoid soggy tacos by the time I get home. For me when I did go, it was the Doritos tacos Quote
kajnrig Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Is this going to be an actual show, or...? All I know about it is that it dropped a certain same-chan into the background. Quote
technoblue Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Sweet. The sequel could be "In Search of Fresh Ingredients", which I was surprised to find out is a real thing. Quote

Valkyrie Hunter D Posted July 28, 2021 Author Posted July 28, 2021 Ha, apparently there was a comic released too! Clearly who ever made this commercial knew how to use mecha anime tropes. I was even more impressed when I learned that Spike Spiegel's voice actor was in there. And for the record, I would make the trek to a Del Taco over Taco Bell anytime 🙂. Quote
TehPW Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 That was Fing Epic. I'd be going out to TB tonight if i didn't just visit the dentist. I'm eating yogurt the next couple days 😕 Quote
M'Kyuun Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Read the comic. Y'know, it's just silly enough to be made into a show, sponsored, of course, by Taco Bell. Gotta admire the amount of effort here just to advertise some spicy fries with cheese on them. Quote
