The CM started airing on March 15th, and caused quite a stir as the members of AKB48 shares the candy with one another via mouth-to-mouth. Regarding this CM, BPO received negative comments such as “The children will imitate this,” “It looks like they’re playing with food,” and “Stop making CMs that lack quality. A mouth-to-mouth relay with food is unsanitary and unpleasant.”
On BPO’s “Opinions Concerning Young People” section of their homepage, 116 cases out of 196 were opinions regarding AKB48’s ‘Puccho’ CM. A majority of these stated the viewer’s unpleasant feelings towards the mouth-to-mouth relay scene.
