Yamazaki Biscuit Co. Ltd, the Japanese company behind the Aerial brand of Japanese potato chips, has announced a new flavor, and what better way to celebrate its debut than by tying up with the Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury anime. This collab comes complete with a hilarious in-universe TV ad, where the characters are involved in making an ad to sell the new chips, and you can check it out below.

New packaging:
Hiroshi Kobayashi, who directed TRIGGER’s original anime KIZNAIVER, is helming Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury at Bandai Namco Filmworks anime studio brand Sunrise alongside Code Geass co-creator Ichiro Okouchi as the scriptwriter and series composer. Crunchyroll is currently streaming the series in a range of subs and dubs and describes it as such:
A.S. (Ad Stella) 122― An era when a multitude of corporations have entered space and built a huge economic system. A lone girl from the remote planet Mercury transfers to the Asticassia School of Technology, run by the Beneritt Group which dominates the mobile suit industry. Her name is Suletta Mercury. With a scarlet light burning in her pure heart, this girl walks step by step through a new world.
