Well, Kikkoman is the soy sauce you generally get at a Japanese restaurant in a bottle shaped somewhat like a fish.
Though that doesn't even come close to explaining what the heck that animation is about.
Check out the rest at http://yoga.tripod.co.jp/ - I'm still trying to get the Bannana and Shrimp show theme out of my head.

yeah more weird japanese flash animation
that poor cat hung himself because kikkoman was mad at him.

I'm sure many Japanese would find the Ronald McDonald Time Travel video equally disturbing....
Of course this is a startling gimmick for branding Kikkoman Soy Sauce indelibly into you brain, and perhaps destroying your appetite for food altogether at the same time. Oh, well...nothing ventured, nothing gained. Besides, if we can brainwash all these anime-watching and video-game playing kids into using Kikkoman on their french fries, potato chips, shimp puffs and bananas, we got customers for life.
The weirdo twist here is that "Kikkoman" sounds very similar to the name of an old anime TV show about costumed wrestlers (Kinicuman?). Think of an animated WWF, and that's kinda it. The show had decent ratings and ran for years. Many tie-in toys were made, etc., etc', so it's very well-known to a Japanese audience.
Unfortunately the sound didn't come thru for me, but I can imagine...

Yes it is. Kinnikuman - there's a new series (well, newly translated) showing on Fox tv here in the states. And the comics are still popular.
I have almost all of the toys still.

Wouldn't using it everyday cause MORE nightmares? Or were you being sarcastic? Either way, do they sell it in America... Or would I have to import .

And, because no one asked, here are the translated lyrics to the Kikkoman song!
The great hero Kikkoman!
Soy sauce makes the difference
Pour it, taste it, be amazed!
Restaurants are no mach to him
Take his blow the "Kikko-punch"!
(Eat sunny-side up with soysauce!)
Show me Show you Kikkoman Kikkoman
Show me Show you Kikkoman!
The Star of Soy has send him here
The cool guy called Kikkoman!
Try soy sauce and be healthy
Did you know that it kills germs!
Sauce? Ketchup? Nonsense!
Vanish them with "Kikko Beam"!
I said eat eggs with soysauce, idiot!
Show me Show you Kikkoman Kikkoman
Show me Show you Kikkoman!
Alright!

I would shout along "Kikko - BANG!" long before I knew the translation.
But at least now we have some insight as to why the cat met his untimely fate...

It's quite scary though, eggs are one of the few things I don't have soy sauce on.... *glances nervously over shoulder and double checks the door is locked*
