``Itasha (痛車, literally "painful car"), is a Japanese term for an otaku fad of individuals decorating the bodies of their cars with fictional characters of anime, manga, or video games (especially bishōjo game or eroge). These characters are predominately "cute" female. The decorations usually involve paint schemes and stickers. Automobiles are called itasha, while similar motorcycles and bicycles are called itansha (痛単車) and itachari (痛チャリ), respectively.

The cars are seen prominently in places such as Akihibara (Tokyo), Nipponbashi (Osaka), or Ōsu (Nagoya).''

Do they call it that because seeing one causes you to cringe as though in physical pain?

I wish I had the balls to learn how to drive. It seems too easy to fuck up for someone with a wandering attention span like mine.

One thing is having the balls to ride something like that and not caring about what people thinks of you, knowing it is shameful for the rest, and there is thinking it's normal for a grown male to like stuff with cute anime girls all over it.

I don't know if the later is autism or what.
I would totally drive a Remimobile.


>>11731919
Yes, for me it's not about difficulty either. It's because you can suddenly and unconsciously daydream and run over someone.

Eurobeat music while driving wouldn't help either.

Driving an automatic car is quite simple, but very boring. Leaning to drive a manual transmission car is much more rewarding and fun.

it's a good game. it was the first REALLY good forza game, and it was released at the same time as the first REALLY lackluster gran turismo game. nobody could've seen the rise of forza coming, but the fall was inevitable.
horizon was shit, 5 is pretty much shit. GT6 is making an excellent comeback, but it still lacks a livery editor. which is awful.
