The long-awaited collaboration between Hokkaido soul food and Snow Miku!
Hokkaido soul food "Maruchan Yakisoba Bento"
Maruchan Yakisoba Bento, a beloved cup of Hokkaido's classic yakisoba, has been loved by generations since its release in 1975, and is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Widely known by the nickname "Yakiben," it is also well-known for its memorable commercial with the catchphrase "Tamaran♪ Tomaran♪."
This time, a special collaboration between the Yakisoba Bento and Hokkaido-supporting characters Snow Miku and Rabbit Yukine has begun. A collaboration visual drawn by KEI has been released. The special 50th anniversary visual features Snow Miku holding a Yakisoba Bento in both hands, while Rabbit Yukine holds a soup mug, a reference to the Chinese soup that comes with the Yakisoba Bento.
