    Wrapping your car in anime girls is called “Itasha” which is one of my favorite words in the Japanese language.

    It’s comprised of the words for “It hurts” and “car”. The closest English translation would be “cringemobile”

      Its only June 1st, but this is the best thing I’m going to learn all month. Me and quite a few friends love fast cars and local car meets/shows, and there is a sizable group of people who show up with anime cars. I shall share this sacred knowledge with them.

      There’s also the itabag. Same concept, but for bags. Fans of anything (usually anime, idols) will decorate their bags with whatever trinkets to show support to literal pain because you’ll be carrying the weight of your fandom.

          Chuunibyou is more like “middle school-itis” or something. Specifically refers to 2nd year of middle school.

      tbf the anime girl probably took a skilled artist (assuming it’s not ai generated)

        Usually the artist is paid for a drawing then it’s copied a million times.

        If they’re hand drawing the wrap then that’s cool.

          Itasha wraps are niche enough that they’re usually custom made, including the art.

    Unless the guys wrapping their car with anime girls are doing so to provide protection from storms at sea and guide them safely to their destination, they aren’t serving the same function.

      If I’m being honest I think you’re mistaking the excuse for the function.

      “Oh yes totally. Only a topless woman will do for this. Safety first.”

      So it wasn’t there to give sailors some ammunition for their spank bank, to rub one out while they were at sea for 21 weeks?

      The anime girl tiddies on the prow of my fair shitbox are for helping guide a safe course on the seas of poon, my dude.

        Seems like they were being chased by the driver’s ex-girlfriend. The woman in the car was calling a friend because she was scared about it, then….
