Cosplay and itasha at Comic Market 72
A small collection of links to sites that have photos of itasha and cosplay at Comic Market 72. For those who don’t know, itasha means “painful car” and it’s used to refer to cars that are decorated with anime or game pictures. It’s “painful” because it’s embarassing.
Itasha:
Otaroad Day 1, Day 2, Day 3
Otasuke
Cosplay:
Ascii.jp
Hobby Channel 1, 2, 3
Man itasha really increased in numbers in recent years… The term itasha(痛車) is also a word play on イタ車(itasha), which was a term used to refer to Italian cars. But that’s a little bit of info that is completely irrelevant to this post.
