eRamenStar Promotional Ramen Noodle

Pre-promotional wheat-based egg-flavored snack ramen, released in Japan before the airing of ElamenSTAR. While the main mission of the eRamen promotion was to spur intrest in the show from Japan's ramen demographic, they also proved an affordable foodstuff for starving Japanese CCG otaku.

The packaging featured 5 characters:

• ランデル - Lander (breakfast flavor)
• ズラ - Zula (choco-egg snack flavor)
• ウエンデル - Wendel (fire-hot curry flavor)
• フィーラ - Phila (mint-yoghurt flavor)
• ジョヒ - Johi (ramen flavor)

While Johi was never featured in the series, her(or his?) character design is extremely similar to that of Doodle, a Wizbits character who also does not appear in ElamenSTAR. It has been hypothesised that the character designs were reused, due to the similarity of the Johi Joins the Fray (Card) to the Doodle Joins the Fray (Card), and that the ramen-flavoured ramen linked to the character is because of limited interest in the character from the creators' sides.
