The director of the Chainsaw Man, Ranking of Kings (second opening), and Jujutsu Kaisen opening animations, Shingo Yamashita, has directed a 30-second anime ad for the Japan Racing Association. The “Kyou, Watashi no Monogatari ga Hashirimasu” advertisement depicts the numerous occupations and tasks associated with horse racing, including vets, farriers, and stablehands.
Hitomi Kariya acted as the commercial’s animation director in addition to directing, storyboarding, and animating the second closing animation from Chainsaw Man. Original character design is ascribed to animator Tomoko Tamaki (who also designed the Bocchi the Rock! poster).
In terms of the voice cast, “Kyou, Watashi no Monogatari ga Hashirimasu” includes Yui Ishikawa as the veterinarian, Shinnosuke Suzuki as the farrier, Sayumi Suzushiro as the medical assistant, Ikumi Hasegawa as the stablehand, and Yumiri Hanamori as the staff member in charge of new horse breeding. Aimer’s song “crossovers” is also featured in the commercial.
