PES (Peace Eco Smile) meets IS JAPAN COOL?
A collaboration between two projects «PES» and «IS JAPAN COOL?» by ANA will be a new attempt aiming to build unprecedented demand in global markets by pooling and promoting cultural content together, rather than separately as the regular products or services. «TOYOTA X STUDIO4C meets ANA» aiming to disseminate the spirit of Japan to the world through diverse content that contains a national character and its peculiar value as a soft power.


Is Japan Cool? by ANA
https://www.ana-cooljapan.com/ 
‘IS JAPAN COOL?’ is a project intended to revive interest in tourism in Japan by exploring Japan’s culture and appeal as a travel destination. With the introduction of  ‘”DREAMS” on July 4th, world of animation, manga and games that represent Japanese culture is explored and “PES” is included as one of the contents.  “IS JAPAN COOL?’ began with Season 1 in February 2012, broadly showcasing the wonders found across Japan. Further content was added for Season 2 with a focus on two cities which each have their own unique fascination, titled ‘OKINAWA’ and ‘TOKYO’. Also included was additional content of Japan’s unique sub-culture of “Cosplay”. Season 3 introduces “Fascination of Japan” with diverse themes such as ‘TRADITIONS’, ‘KAWAII’, and newly added “RAMEN”.

 

ToyToyota project: PES (Peace Eco Smile) Concept
Human evolution is represented by the history of mobility. Cars bring our mobility to life, and yet all too often, everyone talks about the complicated technological aspects of automobiles rather than just the joy of mobility. TOYOTA has discovered the «TOY» in its own corporate name as the origin of lively and cheerful joy. Then, as part of ToyToyota projects aimed at spreading the joy of mobility, TOYOTA and STUDIO4C, a leading Japanese animation studio, have together created an animation series, PES (Peace Eco Smile), following a curious alien exploring the joy of driving and the importance of safety.
In 2013, TMSM started a new collaboration project, «NEXT GENERATION – PES (Peace Eco Smile) – CROSS COLLABORATION,» to communicate its message globally through producing a full animation film with leading directors and various kinds of collaborations in organic connections with other people, things, and places. 
Can we together create «the future that everyone wants» to change ideas about mass consumption and economic efficiency today?
The energy to do this is actually inside human hearts. The source for putting it in motion is music and this is why PES is making music videos along with a new animation film.
The power of anime and music can cross over barriers of language and nation, creating understanding between diverse cultures and civilizations, giving us courage and healing. It is the energy of miracles.
PES(Peace Eco Smile) is this new energy, wishing to be the path towards a future we can create at any time.
