Ever read those fics where the author makes up a silly commercial
using anime characters? Well that's what this challenge is about.

Write a silly spamfic starring any anime characters you wish, that
endorses a product. It can be a real product, or a fake product. 

One of my first posts to the list was such. Here, in it's entirety...

And Now, a Word from our sponsor...

(Scene opens on one of Ranma and Ryouga's fights. It progresses in the
normal fashion, until Ryouga becomes depressed, and Ranma has to dodge a
medium sized Shishihokoudan. Ranma sidesteps, and launches himself at an
angle for Ryouga. Ryouga braces to deflect Ranma, but Ranma stops shorts,
and lets Ryouga have it with a full Tenshin Amiguriken, followed by a
massive uppercut. Ryouga lands in a nearby fountain.)

Ryouga: Bweeee! Bwee bwee bwee!

Ranma: Ha! Why don't you give it up, Ryouga. You know you can't beat me, so
why even try?

Ryouga: BWEEEEEEE!!!!!

(Scene changes to the Tendou Dojo. Ranma is lying on the floor in front of
the table reading one of his manga.
He looks up to see Ryouga walk into the room, with his towel, and shaking
his wet hair out.)

Ranma: Ah geez... We already fought once today, Ryouga. Why can't you let
it rest?

Ryouga: I can't rest until you die, Ranma! But first, I have to know...

Ranma: Know what? You should be going to school for that. 

Ryouga: SHUT UP, RANMA! 

Ranma: *snicker*

Ryouga: I have to know how you beat me all the time. I know that you're not
stronger than me! Is it the pigtail?

Ranma: Huh?

Ryouga: It's magic, isn't it? It lets you defeat me!

Ranma: No, Ryouga. It's not the pigtail

Ryouga: It's your clothes then! You've worn Chinese clothes for years now!
It must be your clothes that allow you to defeat me.

Ranma: I could beat you in nothing but a leotard... wait a sec... I think I
already DID!

Ryouga: Then it has to be the shoes. IT'S GOTTA BE THE SHOES, MAN!!!!

Ranma: Yup! I wear....

(Switch to a dramatic closeup of one of Ranma's cloth shoes. We can see
that there is a tiny 'swoosh' logo embroidered on the heel.)

Ranma: ...Air Saotomes. This is the deluxe Martial Arts Crosstraining
model, the Air Saotome Extreme!

Ryouga: ......

Ranma: It's a great way to add that extra ten or twenty feet to my
vertical. They're aerodynamically shaped, so all my kicks get maximum
airspeed, and they're made of the newest polymer fibers for extra
durability. Best of all, they come in men and women's sizes, cuz sometimes,
I just need both.

Ryouga: I knew it!

Ranma: They're available at all Tokyo Foot Lockers, Athletic Express, and
Martial Arts 'R Us.

Ryouga:  An athletic shoe endorsement... so *That's* how you pay for all
the repairs to the dojo...

Ranma: If your hangtime is anything under three minutes, get yours today.
Your enemies will hate it, but your feet will thank you!

Ryouga: Where do I sign up?
