This is a product tie-in that understands what makes Kemono Friends work: the genuine delight in small, stupid details. Two foxes fumble with instant noodles like they've never seen food before, then accidentally unlock a fever dream of 2017 trying to impersonate 1980s nostalgia, and the joke lands because the show commits completely to the bit. It's five minutes that know exactly what they are and love it anyway.
Two foxes stumble upon a bowl of instant udon and have absolutely no idea what to do with it. Silver Fox and Ezo Red Fox, from Kemono Friends, puzzle over how the dish is meant to be eaten. Along the way they find an old pay-per-view television, put money into it and watch a supposedly vintage live-action Nissin commercial. The short comedy is a collaboration promoting Nissin's Donbei Kitsune Udon.
