This TV ad can be divided into 3 parts; an opening live action, animation, and a closing live action. In detail, it begins with the close-up of a jar with a bruin on its label, then a smoking hot rice on a bowl so-called Chawan. Animation is employed in the following scenes, depicting a bruin at cooking by the side of a fire ring. He bones a roasted salmon, and puts the fishbone into a boiling pot to make soup stock. After he put a tray of a jar and a teapot on a table, live actions showcase a soup-type Japanese rice dish Chazuke with a spoonful of EDO-MURASAKI-ISHIKARI. This depiction is effectively appetizing, since the previous animation sequence explains that a roasted salmon and a broth made by boiling its bone are blended with the savory seaweed preserve.
