Packed with all your favourite E-numbers and a healthy dose of sugar.

Any information about what it tastes like? I know that's not really relevant to a drink's release but it might be marginally useful for someone considering buying a can in order to drink it.

I bet you it tastes SWEET. Possibly an Azuki or green tea or mochi or - fishy - flavour?

If it tastes like Ramane, then that means Bazooka Gum has found its way into another odd drink here.

"healthy dose of sugar"
I'll bet it doesn't have as much sugar as that Jolt Cola had. Or as much caffeine.

Wonder how this holds up against Red Bull?

They should have designed it after Ultraman's beta capsule.

I've been wondering why Ultraman-related ads. are so popular until now. It is also the case with Kyojin-no-hoshi. Could anyone explain it?

Ultraman the TV program from the 1960s was extremely violent for a kid's show. The poor monsters get pounded and smacked and are sometimes sliced up into pieces by Ultraman. In some episodes the monsters are crying. Seeing this as a kid, you can't help feeling "kawaisou" for the offed monsters but this was perhaps the intention of the producers. Why has the show been popular for so many years? Because Ultraman kicks butt and gets away with it, unlike some politicians in Japan.
