Here’s one that came in a Zenpop.jp box – use coupon code THERAMENRATER for a groovy discount!
Here’s what they had to say about this one – ‘With a specially designed packaging from the Pokémon Masters Tournament, this ramen has been one of the hyped new releases of the
month! Some of Japan’s most favorite Pokémon made it to the cover, with a very familiar face on the lid. The corn butter soy sauce flavored ramen noodles with a cute Pikachu
fish paste at living to their expectations. The surface of the noodles is smooth and easy to slurp. Together with the soy sauce-based seasoning, which allows the soup to blend well with the noodles, it’s a perfect quick meal. The soup is based on the umami of chicken and flavored with aromatic vegetables, butter, and corn. The dish is topped with a combination of cabbage, Pikachu fish cake and corn. Although the cup may be the same, they have different versions of the lid! Share a photo of the one you got with us! #zenpopjapan’
I know I’ve had corn butter miso before, but not so sure about corn butter shoyu. Let’s give it a try!

Loose bits and seasoning from the cup.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added chashu, sesame seed, shichimi, and spring onion. Noodle was well hydrated. Seemed to have a flat and preseasoned nature. The broth definitely was a soy sauce and buttery nuanced one, with corn and scads of fish cake. 3.5 out of 5.0 stars. JAN bar code 4901734047247.
