The description
This product is a tropical fruits flavored ice cream (Pikachu themed, in like with the "pika" in tropical). It was purchased from 7-11 and priced at 172 yen including tax.
The good
I'm always a fan of clever marketing, and this tropical fruits flavored ice cream from Lotte definitely capitalized on the product name! The packaging is emblazoned with an illustration of Pikachu (thanks to the "pika" in the katakana in tropical fruits), so if you've got a Pokemon loving kiddo or you just love Pokemon yourself then this is a winner. The actual ice cream is really good too -- it's a combo of tropical fruit flavors, including mango, pineapple, and passionfruit. It's wonderfully refreshing and definitely feels like it's an ice cream that suits the season well.
The not so good
The biggest downside about this product to me is that it's a limited time only offering! I love all things tropical fruit flavored, and would happily eat this year round (yes, even in the dead of winter, probably!) if I could. No other complaints from me, though -- the taste was great, the price felt quite reasonable for the size of the product, and the overall branding/packaging was clever and adorable to boot. If you like tropical fruit flavored things or you've got a Pokemon fan in your household, this is a cute product to try.
