I don’t see most of these cars getting much traction outside of an anime convention. I personally wouldn’t sticker wrap a bunch of anime girls to my car. I do have to give props towards the cars that instead go for anime realism rather than flash, in particular the (multiple) renditions of the Fujiwara Tofu Shop car from Initial D, complete with blinky lights. I’d ride those on a normal day.

Omurice @ SMASH! Maid Cafe

Whilst I’ve been to many anime conventions, I have yet to set foot in a maid cafe, even in Japan. It’s definitely something to consider doing with friends of certain tastes, but I would never go alone. This pop-up was only for one weekend a year (as it’s an annual convention), but it’s likely going to be a mainstay at large anime conventions around the world, and of course there’s plenty of these in Akihabara.
