........what?? I am so confused. Why would idols promote pain relievers?? I thought the use of drugs is frowned upon in the idol industry.

Since I colloquially refer to ibuprofen as 'ibu', I'm unsure what to make of an anime anthropomorphising the same abbreviation...

Once more in this odd hobby I have,I again run into something that's utterly bizarre from Japan. Drug ingredients transformed into handsome guys. While I think this gives something for most ladies something to moon over,for the rest of us,this is just plain weird. It would be like an American animation company got the bright idea to do something like this with the latest boy band playing ingredients for a headache tablet in a commercial series they just dreamed up. It wouldn't be surprising for people to ask what drug that person was on when he or she dreamed that up.
