Twitter Japan is making Vines out of Christmas boxes, and we could watch them all day

Merry Boxmas, everyone

We spent a good portion of yesterday mesmerised by this Vine:


The way they walk. The sound. The way that little one runs after the pigeon…! Itā€™s so perfect, and we watched it again and again.

But where did it come from? What did it mean? And where could we find more?

After a bit of digging, we found out that this Vine was created by Twitter Japan as part of their #ChristmasBox campaign. And yes, there were more - lots more!







The ducks one is still our favourite, though.

So why are Twitter Japan making these adorable little mini-movies? One of the people working on the campaign told us the objective is simple: “To increase happy Tweets during the holiday season on Twitter.” Thatā€™s it. They just want to make you smile.

Thereā€™s also a website where you can tweet gifts to your friends, and win things from big brands - plus a whole set of ads for the campaign on the Japanese subway:

There are even more Vines on their account. If anyone needs us, weā€™ll be watching those box-ducks over and over again ā¤ļø.
