The aftermath of the "Tokyo Game Show 2022" has settled down, and now comes the TGS loss.
Is it just me or do I feel a bit light-headed and unable to concentrate on my work?
What wakes me up in such a state is an energy drink.
However! It's October in 2022, and it's almost the season of autumn and winter.
The problem is that if you drink energy drinks all the time, your body will get cold.
...and you got a product at the Tokyo Game Show 2022 that solves that problem!
This time, we will review the " BRAON " gaming gummies, which were jointly developed by Shinobi-ism Inc. and Kanro Co.

Gaming Gummies "BRAON
Two types of black packages.
The left image is a pouch set and the right image is a box set.
BRAON" is a product jointly developed by the e-sports team "Shinobi-ism Gaming" and Kanro Co.
The "BRAON" introduced here was purchased at the Kanro booth at TGS2022, so it was signed by Momochi (@momochi212) and Chocoblanka (@chocoblanka)!
The back side you'll be interested in
Just because it's not an energy drink doesn't mean we're going to cut corners!
The ingredients per bottle (30g) are...
Soda flavor
- Energy: 101kcal
- Protein: 1.26g
- Fat: 0g
- Carbohydrates: 23.9g
- Salt equivalent: 0.08g
- Glucose: 3g
- Palatinose: 5g
- Blueberry extract: 40mg
Blueberry Soda Flavor
- Energy: 101kcal
- Protein: 1.20g
- Fat: 0g
- Carbohydrates: 24.0g
- Salt equivalent: 0.09g
- Glucose: 3g
- Palatinose: 5g
- Blueberry extract: 40mg
And that's it!
I am sure that energy drink freaks are familiar with these ingredients.
The combination of two sugars, glucose for fast-acting and palatinose for sustaining power, is likely to enhance the abilities required for e-sports!
The outer packaging is a striking contrast to the "brain" design of the product.
Both are 30g x 8 packs, so the quantity of contents is the same, but the pouch set is a little more expensive at 1,500 yen (including tax) compared to the 2,000 yen (including tax) for the box set of bottles.
Buy the box set first, then buy the pouch set to refill your bottles!
One of the attractions of "BRAON," which is called "ONE HAND STYLE," is its bottle, which allows you to eat smartly with one hand during a short interval.
You can touch the device without getting your hands dirty!
Tasting!
We started with the black soda flavor.
The aroma wafts around you as soon as you open the bottle.
It is not a refreshing soda, but rather a dusky soda.
When I tried a piece, the strong taste spread in my mouth.
It looked hard in my hand, but when I chewed it, it was neither hard nor soft, but had a moderate texture.
It also has a slight medicinal feeling. We call this an energetic sensation.
Seeking further stimulation, we put the bottle directly into our mouth with one hand.
Chewing 5 to 6 grains at once, the energetic feeling becomes even stronger.
Each grain is small, so it is good to be able to eat it boldly like this.
Next is the red blueberry soda flavor.
When you open the bottle, you can smell the sweet aroma.
When you try a piece, you will find that the sweetness and the slightly sour taste are a good match.
Compared to the soda flavor, the blueberry soda flavor is refreshing and has a basic taste that will appeal to everyone.
In fact, each piece of "BRAON" is a power mark.
Each piece is 9mm to 10mm in diameter and about 7mm high.
Some of the Saiga NAK editors who reviewed the product said, "It could be a little harder, couldn't it? But that's just what "Ninja-ism Gaming" supervised.
Momochi: We received many samples of various hardness and sizes, and we tasted quite a lot in one day, including players from Shinobi-ism, saying "This one is better" and "I think this combination is better" (laughs).
(Laughs.) Since we had our own preferences, we wondered if it was okay, but we ended up with a product with a chewiness that we felt was delicious. The ideal of "not too soft, not too hard, and good to eat before a game" was realized.ChocoBlanca: The impression of the product changes completely depending on the size, how the taste is perceived if the hardness is different, and how the powdering changes the texture. I thought that product development is very difficult (laughs).
(Laughs)..." It is clear that they developed a product that is ideal for e-sports through a process of trial and error.
The gaming gummies supervised by professional e-sports players who are active on the front lines of the game are not to be overlooked!
BRAON" gaming gummies jointly developed by the e-sports team "Shinobi-ism Gaming" and the candy maker KANRO CO.
