The Sochi Olympics have finally begun! I'm sleepy, but I think there are people who can't get away from the TV and lack sleep.

How about a hot soup that is kind to your stomach in the morning of lack of sleep? Marumiya Foods has released a cup soup of the anime "Usavich" featuring Russian-born rabbits.


As fans may know, "Usavich" is a CG animation featuring two rabbits, a former mafia boss, Kirenenko, who has a sickness, and a cheerful and a little foolish Putin. Both are prisoners (prisoner rabbits?) Who live in prisons, and their unique and surrealistic daily lives are depicted, such as a slapstick prison life and a jailbreak plan full of happenings.

I bought such a "Usavich" cup soup because I was attracted to the packaging!


The red and white striped package with the same pattern as the prison uniform is "Kirenenko Ripe Tomato Creamy Soup". The thick cream has a mellow and fruity taste that is in harmony with the sweet and sour tomatoes. The green of spinach and parsley is vivid!


On the other hand, the green and white striped package is "Putin Potato Potage". The potage is so rich that you can feel the lumps of potatoes on your tongue, and the potatoes on the back give it a nice taste.


Both are priced at 168 yen. It is on sale at Ministop and FamilyMart stores. If you notice Putin and Kirenenko staring at you from the shelf, you may have to pick them up! ??
