In Japan the comic series/anime series Attack on Titan has been quite popular. The series is about people fighting huge blood thirsty giants. Subaru has decided to launch a TV ad campaign involving similar giants, as shown by one of their TV commercials:

I'd probably not show this ad to anyone under 18 though.

That is not an ad - it's a documentary. It is also where they got the idea for Pacific Rim.

Actually, those are not similar , they are the SAME giants from the Anime.

It's based on a little more than just a single anime. They borrow ideas from the Mecha themed anime and all those Japanese giant-monster movies.

The anime is 2D, but the giants you see are exactly the same. The last one you see in the ad is called the Colossal Titan. Damn, you just made me rewatch the episode where we last see the Colossal. It really is an epic series. (First season only had 24 episodes)

Point of fact - The Forester has the LOWEST Centre of Gravity of any SUV on the road today.

If your dad's car feels unstable, 99% of the time it is due to incorrect tyre pressures. A Forester should run at 2.5 all round - end of story - makes a huge difference.

Fantastic advert! :D
