Videos Anime Commerical about 6 years agoby Joey Paur

You may or may not remember this, but in 1997 Murphy's Irish Stout released an anime cyberpunk commercial. You don't really see anime advertisements for alcoholic beverages. Why would you!? The fact that this commercial exists seems crazy, but it turned out extremely cool!

It was in the late 90s when I was first introduced to hardcore anime films like Akira, Ninja Scroll, and Ghost in the Shell. Those films hooked me on anime and I've enjoyed watching and discovering new anime ever since.

What are some of your favorite 90s anime films and do you know of any other cool anime ads like this?

This is an old Tv Spot for Murphy's Irish Stout. This commercial/advert was taped from channel 4, (England), around 1998/1999 on VHS PAL.... Sorry for the quality loss in the transfer, was best I could do with the old tape.
