On December 2, Hinokiya Group launched a series of web movies and commercials, marking an exciting collaboration with the popular Japanese comedy duo, Audrey. Known for their unique sense of humor, Toshiaki Kasuga, a thrifty comedian, joins seasoned teammate Masayasu Wakabayashi in exploring the benefits of the innovative air conditioning system, 'Z Air Conditioning'. The release includes 13 videos available on the official Hinokiya Group YouTube channel and a dedicated promotional page.

The series features three 15-second commercials promoting the unique features of 'Z Air Conditioning', scheduled for airing on national terrestrial broadcasts starting December 21. Additionally, viewers can expect to catch these commercials streaming on platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video beginning January 2026. The latest web movie continues from their previous project, 'Z Air Investigation', and showcases the dynamic between the duo as they delve into product investigations around the Hinokiya homes showroom.

Kasuga, while entertaining with his well-known comedic style, embarks on a humorous yet informative exploration centered around cost-effectiveness in home air conditioning. His unusual 'Kosukos Dance' and laid-back demeanor shine throughout the web movie, while Wakabayashi provides his characteristic comic timing as the elder investigator. Together, they highlight the economic advantages of 'Z Air Conditioning', managing to keep homes comfortably temperature-controlled while saving on electricity bills, all delivered through a comedic lens reminiscent of a home visit show.

As they wrap up their investigation, they expand their focus to include various products linked to the 'Z Air Conditioning' line, investigating high-performance electronic dust collection filters, 'MAX Air', and an automatic humidification system, 'Gokuraku Humidification', which eliminates the need for manual refilling. These humorous yet informative moments can now be enjoyed by audiences on the YouTube channel and the special promotional page.

Launched in December 2016, 'Z Air Conditioning' has become a household name, with over 30,000 homes equipped with this innovative system—crowned as the top share in the whole-house air conditioning market.
