Itasha

Itasha culture, originating in Japan.

It’s a kind of ACGN culture.

In Japan, ACGN culture fans lover prefer in order to show their personality. The favorite anime characters, anime companies or character names and other characters and paintings will be pasting (spraying) on the car. So that to decorate.

One way of saying the term “Itasha” is that decorating the car in this way is like a human tattoo. That’s why it is called “pain car”.

Early pain car is to paint the way directly painted on the body, with the large colour output technology is becoming more and more common, most of today’s pain car is the pattern output and then stick to the body, easier than the early way of painting and easy to tear off the pattern replacement. However, the defect of the sticker is that the life expectancy is only one to two years, but generally want to change the style and pattern in a year.
