Backlash over the Anmika Donbei web advertisement
A web-only video promoting Saikyo Donbei Kamo-dashi Soba drew criticism on X and led to calls for a Donbei boycott. Some reactions objected to the choice of performer or the advertisement’s flamboyant tone, while others asked for the return of the earlier Dongitsune advertising style. The available reference does not establish confirmed sales damage or a formal regulatory finding.
