“#Tajimi City’s Official Car Decorated with Yakunara Mug Cup Mo Anime Characters”

As part of the collaboration campaign with the forthcoming TV anime Yakunara Mug Cup Mo / Let’s Make A Mug Too, the official cars of Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture, are now decorated with the characters of the anime. In Japan, a car decorated with images of characters from anime, manga, or video games is called Itasha (literally means “painful car”) and it is not uncommon for local government offices and public organizations in Japan to use Itasha for public relations activities.

The main story of the anime is set in the city, which is famous for the Mino pottery, and focuses on the protagonist Himeno Toyokawa, a first-year high school student who moved to Tajimi City and becomes fascinated with the world of pottery along with the other members of the Tougei-bu (pottery club) at high school.
