Jibanyan's Chocobar (partially lost series of commercials; 2014-2017)
A title card used for advertisments
Status: Partially Found
In 2014, to coincide with the franchise's popularity it had during that year, Jibanyan's signature Chocobar snacks were once sold as real-life candy called Jibanyan's Chocobar (ジバニャンのチョコボー). The product lasted until 2017 before going through drastic rebrands to coincide with the franchise's change of directions it had.
Overview
A series of 15-second commercials were made to go with the product, mostly following the style of the 2014 Yo-kai Watch anime series and lasted until 2017 before the temporary rebrand happened next year.
The commercials themselves were uploaded to Bandai on YouTube, but they were all made private on YouTube leaving others to reupload them. They were never available as bonus features on home video, and some of them remain to be lost to time.
