I know I've seen the Raccoon before, I think it was in Pom Poko. All I really remember is the Raccoon using his magical shape-shifting powers to turn his balls into a bridge or something.

. . . You know, I've got to agree with the original poster, that is just all kinds of fucked up.

Whisky...tango...foxtrot.

Okay, I definately was *not* told that fairy tail when I was a kid.

Just a question though, why do the other animals only have two huge breasts? Shouldn't they have six or eight?

I backtracked to their website. Here's what I found.
We knew the satisfaction which "the thing" gives. And, "heart" concerning satisfaction, we reached the point where you think. Is not just the appearance, true affluence, it probably is what. Is not just word, the living which is value truly probably is somewhere. Living, society, while age keep changing, now, deepens human saw time. And, it is not method of living which consumes the thing, have entered when also living of the people and evolving to method of living which cultivates in the thing. We would like to designate casual today, as the first obtaining does not have applying. One one, we would like to keep cutting the response and reality of the thing which lives, in heart. It is delightful, enjoyment and feeling good quality. Believing and loving, love. In addition the everyday life which cultivates the movement of such a, various hearts carefully --- that, being to be something which our Anabuki engineering work stores continue to seek, it does. The family and it waits for the house and, makes, thinks terrestrial environment and in related to with age. The house making is considered, as it is something which keeps relating with the house hand via life. And, discernibly, width and beauty, convenience and functionality in basis, are felt with heart, it is full and it keeps developing the tomorrow which is enough. The house raises the person from 0 up to 100, "the vessel of life"... in the thinking, we would like to make the house which can realize true affluence. The being full of the house hand it watches over the everyday life which is enough, would like to keep supporting directly. And, we would like to be the enterprise which the people can share the joy and impression of the thing which lives.
That should clear things up.

It appeared to be related in some way to the apartment building at the end but...I really am at a loss for words here.

Someone here explained it before. It's a Japanese mountain spirit. Or something, I think. Yeah.

Hey it fits the semi oddity of the commercial.

It still doesn't caompare to some of their food coimmercials by any stretch.

I liket his part.
What About Those Big Testicles?
A curious and defining characteristic of Tanuki is its gigantic testes. According to some legends, the testicles / scrotum can be stretched to the size of eight tatami mats. Others point to the word Senjojiki (the space of 1,000 tatami mats) as an indication of the Tanuki's testes size. Called Kin-tama (Golden Balls) in Japanese, the testes are supposedly symbols of good luck rather than overt sexual symbols (the Japanese are more tolerant of low humor than most Western nations). In the movie Heisei Tanuki Gassen Ponpoko (see below), the Tanuki stretches out its scrotum as a parachute in a desperate suicide attack. In other Tanuki folklore, the Tanuki uses the testes as an impromptu drum, beating out the "ponpoko" sound (no pun intended).

In biological terms, the Tanuki's large "golden balls" are a true depiction of the real-life Tanuki. According to evolutionary biologists, the Tanuki's scrotum is large because of fierce competition among Tanuki males for females. Phrased differently, Tanuki copulate frequently, and those Tanuki with larger testes size have a greater chance of getting their genes into the next generation. The same is true in the world of chimpanzees.
