Sexy Zone's Kento Nakajima stars in Keisei Skyliner's new commercial. He becomes the "Keisei Prince" with his sexy, divine responses.

Keisei Electric Railway held a press conference for its new Keisei Skyliner commercial on October 23 at Bellesalle Onarimon Tower in Minato Ward, Tokyo.

The company will implement a timetable revision on the 26th. It will significantly increase Skyliner services by 1.4 times, running every 20 minutes throughout the day. By extending operating hours to cover early mornings and late nights, it will enhance access and convenience from central Tokyo to Narita Airport. To coincide with this revision, the new TV commercial "Our Customers Are Princesses. Sexy Every 20 Minutes" and "Sexy Until Late Night" versions, will begin airing on the same day. These commercials highlight the Skyliner's high level of hospitality, featuring idol group Sexy Zone's Kento Nakajima as the commercial character.

President Toshiya Kobayashi explained the casting of Nakajima, stating the commercial's concept and keyword is "convenient service." He said, "Mr. Nakajima is always praised for his meticulous care towards fans and associates, which is called 'divine service.' We believe this attitude embodies the essence of our service, which is why we asked him to appear."

Appearing in the same costume as the commercial, Nakajima remarked, "It sparkles! I'm honored to wear this uniform." He unveiled the one-of-a-kind "Keisei Prince" uniform, based on Keisei Electric Railway's actual uniform but featuring special decorations like a crown and braid.

Reflecting on his role as the "Keisei Prince," who gently assists female passengers in need at stations with hugs or princess carries, and treats salaryman-style men the same way, he recalled, "Being kind to women happens in dramas and movies, but not when the person is an older gentleman, so it was a valuable opportunity." He then drew laughter by adding, "Carrying both men and women princess-style is what modern idols do." Regarding expressing the Skyliner's convenience with the phrase "sexy," he smiled and said, "We shot it repeatedly, changing expressions and the nuance of the lines, so I think I said the most '20 sexy' in a single day since debuting with Sexy Zone."

Nakajima, who rode the Skyliner from Ueno to Narita Airport the day before the event, highlighted its appeal as "sexy points": traveling at 160 km/h as Japan's second-fastest train, featuring vehicle designs by fashion designer Kansai Yamamoto, and accumulating points through ID payment services. He urged, "There are other hidden sexy points, so please look for them."

Wearing the same white gloves as Keisei Electric Railway staff, Nakajima attempted a train announcement. She calmly read, "We will soon arrive at the final stop, Narita Airport Terminal 1," but then ad-libbed, replacing the final "Thank you" with her signature catchphrase, "Sexy Thank You!", energizing the venue.
