IS THIS THE BEST OF JAPAN'S CAR CULTURE? ITASHA HEAVEN
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Experience the best of Japan's car culture! Itasha Heaven is a car event that happens only once a year in Odaiba, Tokyo. It's focused on the anime and manga otaku culture in Japan but combined with car culture it becomes Itasha! Every car at this even has a crazy livery with their favorite anime on it. Cosplayers also attend and before you realize it feels like an anime expo car meet in one! After the event, I attend an underground car event called Tokyo Motor Collection & it was just like the Tokyo Fast & Furious meet!

ONE DAY ONE DAY I will make a Jeremy clarkson itasha car
I'm down for that.
Need to turn him into an anime character first lol
Snapchat filter anime Jeremy Clarkson itasha car… please someone make this happen!!
I cant wait
Please do this 🙏🏻
almost every minute in the video, people respect that you're recording and they just walk out of frame. Love that!
Unlike so many people in the US, they actually try and respect people they don't know. I wish that was the culture here. But the powers that be would rather have us all hate each other.

Yeah i'm japanese
Every Japanese people squat down or cross quickly when someone else is recording lol
We learn from parents' actions from an early age. It's like an unconscious habit
I'm pretty sure its just because they don't wanna be filmed

Thank you for this video I needed something like this to distract myself lately I've been going from bad to worse, it helped me a lot as a distraction thank you.
same, here hang on man
@@h1nz1 thank u, you to bro stay strong
It always gets better chaps.
14:38 BOCCHI THE GOATTT
Thank you for the video!! I’m a hololive/nijisanji fan so it’s always so cool to see the members on the cars. Wish there were more VSPO itashas as well
BOCCHER KAR 😳
Just so you know that isn't a hawk-eye. those are usually known as Stink-eyes or just the GR chassis.
You mean lancer eye.
@@alexbare7181 I've never heard anyone call the 08-14 that. I've heard people call the 2015-2021 models Evo Eye but honestly I just call that the VA at this point.

希望能在這部電影中看到他的驚人演出，RIP

這是真實事件改編 就不算科幻片 你看最近那個「蟻人」這部電影才算科幻片
they all look so good. Wish here in the US people did more of this, but most people think its cringe 🥱
Because it looks ass🗑️🚮🚮
creepy men haven little girls on there cars
@@rbshit1 there's nothing wrong with liking anime idk about some of these guys but I grew up from the age of around 8 on an anime called Sailor Moon at the time I was a kid and it was about a high-school teen superhero was my favourite cartoon when I got older after dragon ball z, digimon, pokemon etc I got into anime around the age of 13 love afro samurai, the girl who leapt through time, tokko some animes that changed my life but when I go back and think about nostalgia and Anime Sailor Moon is the one that defined that feeling and I to this day still appreciate the fact I was lucky enough to grow up with it I'm older now not in my 30s but getting there and have a 1 year old son and can't wait to watch some classics with him Sailor Moon will be one of the first.
I have one art piece each of Afro samurai and Sailor Moon nothing more nothing less but I respect those who really rep their favourite anime/childhood show so personally I don't see all of these men as creepy old men having little girls on their cars but I will say some are weird.
thats because it is
9.5/10 times when folks do it here, it looks shitty tbh. Bit cringe too but I fucks with it.
Those meets were popping! So cool to see! Japan's culture even in the car/bike enthusiast scene is so cool!

The livery looks nice too
Doing a community service fr, I only clicked this video for Love Live 💀
PERFECT!!!!
The guy born in anime 💀
Was watching on Twitch, that UDX event was lit. Sam ran pretty quickly when the dancing first started 🤣🤣
Thank You for fighting the weather and presenting these nice cars. I realy enjoyed it, and the rain on Your umbrella gave some asmr feeling too ;)
At 11.06, just behind the Greddy 4 door Skyline, there's a rally blue Hawkeye STI. The earlier Impreza Sam asked about was a stinkeye
Finally someone who knows Subies 👏 It's no wonder Dam is confused the comment section is full of wrong answers. 😢
5:53 2nd gen Honda/Acura Legend (KA8)
12:45 The Crown you SHOULD HAVE purchased. 17 Crowns are awesome.
you not only skipping a ton a cool cars but also entire rows is driving me nuts!
i only seen one itasha in the last 3 weeks that i was in japan.
I know he doesn't even look at the real Hawkeye cars 😢 skips them over Luke there Honda passports or Chevy Citations
Hawkeye was the model before that Sam.
… left of the screen @ 11:06 was a Hawkeye, 😂 the one you walked around and ignored 🤣
Loved visiting the itasha event despite the rain, and the Tokyo Drift-like meet was awesome! Cherry on top, we got to hang out a little which is always a vibe! (Italian in Japan).
P.S. Loved how you stiched the video, the second meet comes unexpected lol
That Subaru that you called "Hawk eye" is actually the "Stink eye" the "Hawk eye" is the previous gen 3rd facelift.
10:34 is called "Evo eye"
👏 Finally a correct answer.
11:27 the livery on that white Lexus is available in Forza Horizon 5 for pretty much every single car in community creations. I have it on at least 4 different cars
japan car culture is so nice in my country whenever they see itasha they call it cringe
1:29 Was Need for Speed big enough in Japan that someone would get the NFS:MW livery on their M3? Didn’t think that series had a ton of international audience
Pole dancing at a car event, now I’ve seen everything 🤣
As someone who own's several Skyline's, I thought you would have at least showed us the grand-pappy, Prince Skyline! I always enjoy it when you show us the older stuff too!
A lot of awesome cars were missed, to each his own but seems he was more interested in the anime graphics, than the cars themselves, which is fine like I said to each his own, I’m sure there’s a you tuber out there who covered the event and was the opposite more focused on cars than anime.
That's a LOT of vtuber cars in the video, both Nijisanji and Hololive. Crazy to be able to recognize them out of the other anime cars too.
(if you do not know what vtubers are, think of just avatars that facetrack and follow the user instead of a traditional facecam for videos and/or streams, with some being successful enough to have a 3d model to also perform concerts and other skits)
HOLY COW THAT ANGEL BEATS MAZDA5 (no idea what it's called in JP). That Kanade scheme looked nice
"interfooler" ~I accept the seemingly offered inclination to giggle.
Great to see itasha Swifts around. They do give me some ideas
Japanese car culture is by far one of the very best ones. Then the European car culture, Thailand car culture, Irish car culture, Aussie car culture, Kiwi car culture, U.S. car culture, South American car culture and the Philippines car culture.
Aussie the winner, 🏆 me! 😎
I can't believe that I'm just seeing this upload from you! I'm looking forward to watching this video.... I have been trying to keep up with the videos that you upload.... However I don't remember seeing a notification about you posting this....
Keep up the great work, Sammit! I'll be looking forward to seeing what the future holds for You, May and the little guy!

GR 07-13 Stink eye
VA 13-21 Raptor eye
i didnt know they named them after hawk eye
@@420architecMindNDesign i thought after stink eye it was mean eye
He literally walked around a blue hawk eye and didn't film it! 😅
The "eye" designations only apply to GD/GG chassis since the car received 2 facelifts with the same chassis code. All other imprezas can be distinguished by the code alone so referring to them as "stink eye" or whatever is kinda dumb IMHO. You wouldn't call an R32 a "Godzilla eye" skyline or something like that, it's just an R32.
@@seanholtham7349 I agree I only call GD chassis by the "eye" designation other than that its year or chassis code
The marine cosplay, aqua itasha, sao and bocchi the rock cosplay were really cool
17:42 MIKU!! Am happy :)
Absolutely massive vocaloid fan - Would love to see more Itasha car content!
Maybe a Yashio Factory itasha S15 later on Sam?
Goodsmile racing's Miku racecars in GT3 and GT500 are probably the most based thing in all of motorsport right now
TRUE
@@TrolledBy *GT300
People may not like it but this is what peak performance and culture looks like.
I super liked this video please keep it up! It’s so cool to get to see so many sick cars! Like I already feel a little influenced to want a cool car just from being a fan and watching your videos but this was amazing! Japanese car culture is so cool and interesting. I do have a question though that I thought of while watching and I was wondering who owns cool cars like this in Japan? Like as in what do they do for a living how can they afford to do this? Just curious mate thanks for sharing keep it up!
The Bugeye, Blobeye, and Hawkeye Subies are only on the 2nd Gen model from 00-07 (or 08). All have the same body, but diff headlights. With the newer years they don’t use the ‘eye’ thing…
my answer to the video title is YES
20:20 - 😮 You take that back right now Mr. SAMMIT!
I now have a appreciation for itasha car even tho i had a bad wrap about it before, awesome vid
The new subaru at 10:40 is an eagle eye
Man I know some don’t like shooting in rain but I love, taking pics/ filming in the rain the reflections the u seen contrast of colors and amount of tricks you can do with lighting!
Itasha such a cool style it needs to happen more around the world
If I could legally drive and had the money I would love to have something with a Fairy Tail design or a Sword Art Online design there both my favourite Anime's and games
I love that Sinon R34 Four Door
Virgin alert
The newer Subarus are called raptors eyes I believe and the one that was called a Hawkeye in this vid are called stinkeyes
^^^
Single cars become pieces of art
I totally agree a lowered kitted out swift looks mean! They have that aggressive rally look to them with the rear bumper cut
I love this itasha great video 🔥🔥🇬🇧
The Hawkeye is the best era of subaru, my liberty is slammed on 20s with outback overfenders. The second one you asked for help with is referred to as the lancer eye because it's the same headlights as that generation on lancers also
EVO eye...
That scooter you saw with a sidecar I believe they're called Maxi scooters and they have bigger Motors in them they're actually classified as a motorcycle so you need a motorcycle license to drive them but I wouldn't call it a motorcycle around motorcycle people because to motorcycle people that's still a scooter
@ 5:29 Nope. The Hawkeye would be the last versions (second facelift) of the GD chassis specifically the front end that was designed by the ex-Alfa Romeo designer to reflect the fuselage and wings in the front grille (from Fuji Heavy Industries/Subaru Corp history of airplane manufacturing). When you asked about what "eye" WRX (VA chassis "15-"17) @10:32, the one behind it was definitely a Hawkeye (GD Chassis)
That rain on the umbrella ASMR
That spoonsport civic is the ep2 chassis. Which were produced mostly in the UK.
You should ask Vessi shoes (the water proof ones) to sponsor you, they already sponsor a large number of other you tubers…would have made that day a lot better for you.
I love the guy that got into it with his bicycle
blobl eye 04-05 hawk eye 06-07 stink eye (the one you were talking about) 08-14 "rex eye" or "evo eye" 15+
That Marine senchou ek hatch was clean
The Bugeye at 20:27 looks like it has essentially the 2002 rally car lights.
yeah man always enjoy your videos. never seen a meet that reminded me of fast and furious, they went all out for this one :D thanks for sharing as always.
22:11 yes that's the Civic ep3, came out after the ek, is really controversial model, some many people love it and so many others hate it, I am one of those who love it, plus after drove one
1:31 Fun fact about the Mitsubishi GTO, when they were brought over to the states Mitsubishi chose to rename the GTO to the 3000GT to separate them from other cars like the Farrari 250GTO and the Pontiac GTO. Also, through their partnership with Daimler Chrysler they sold the GTO as a Dodge Stealth, the most coveted one being the Dodge Stealth RT Twin Turbo.
The Dodge Stealth RT Twin Turbo and the Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 are the exact same vehicle, both came with the same engine a Twin Turbo 3.0ltr V6 with both having 320bhp thanks to Mitsubishi not having to "follow" the Gentlemens agreement of only having 276hp here in the states (Even though it's believed that nobody truly followed the gentlemens agreement in japan anyways).
Honestly I miss the 90's era of JDM cars and just cars in general. There were plenty of oddballs in the sea of melted cheese body designs. Cars back then just felt more exciting and fun to drive imo. Yeah, there are some rippers today, but they just don't carry that same charm as the cars of the 80's and 90's did.
I actually agree with you on this , like cars these days don't compare to the Golden Era JDM cars 🤷🏾♂️👏🏾
@@hp450karats I'd take an old early 90s rust bucket Beat to crap Drift missile S13/180SX over anything that's out on the market today that's "new".
Dude you need to get hired by polyphony to do the car trivia stuff in the next gran turismo.
@@veronicacampos1294 Meh, I'd rather work for a tuner magazine than work for Polyphony. What I shared about the Mitsubishi GTO/3000GT can easily be found online. Polyphony just needs to hire people who will actually do research. What's funny is, this same information I shared about the 3000GT/GTO was in Grand Turismo 1,2,3,4, and 5. idk about GT6 and the newer GT Titles because I stopped playing GT after GT5.
Awesome video Sammit. Saved me from walking in the rain 👍. Keep'em coming.
Yeaaaaaa Boiiiii !
My free GAMER SUPPS Arrived!
Thanx GAMER SUPPS n SAMMIT
Enjoying while watching another awesome day in the life of Sam!
I think you should lock in a EG while the prices are still good build it and lock it away, as a time capsule for Yugo! Maybe even a Hachi Roku?
🏆
Inspired alright. Some cool looking wraps dude!🤙😎
5:56 That’s a Honda Legend
Upon reaching the conclusion, I offer this: Thank you most kindly, indeed.
This is sick i love it!
That Spoon Civic is An EP3 I use to Own a 2005 EP3 US Spec absolutely loved it everyone did because we're the shifter is on the car!
Big Fan. This video is a good drinking game video “SICK”… is the word, lol. Keep up the good work👍🏻
Your awesome Sam but it hurt my soul when you said the stinkeye/GR was a hawk eye, if your gonna get a GR subaru hatch try an impreza Sgt as they were only sold in japan and have that old school fully mechanical AWD feel but with abs and a super stiff chassis, they are quite tail happy especially with a rear sway bar so are great fun to throw around. ps they can beat an sti hatch in a drag race since they are over 100kg lighter
GD chassis Hawkeye is what he needs but he doesn't seem too like them as he passes them up without a second look constantly 🤔😢 Will start calling him Stink eye Sam ...lol
Love the itasha cars!
Events like this are what inspired me to create Cars N' Anime San Diego
YOU PASSED RIGHT BY THE HIDAMARI SKETCH CAR!!!!!
That Marine cosplay was pretty good 😅 ngl
The old blue wrapped Honda looks like a Honda legend. I'm North America they were called Acura legend. They ran forever.
Holy c33 right next to a honda legend, literally both id draw blood for
That 180 with the bocchi itasha should be somewhere dark and secluded lmao
The blue 2-door Honda is the Honda Legend, and known as the Acura Legend in America.
Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing
The Senchou cosplayer was so good
15:40
The poor guy doesn't know he drives around with a typo 😅 It should say 'Zweite Entwicklung' not 'Sekund' 😂
Your so right there all sick and I'm here for it love the content
I love that Japan don’t care if it’s raining to have a car show. America will cancel a show if there’s one cloud in the sky.
10:30 they are called raptor eye or evo eye as far as I am aware
or Just VA chassis
Seems perfect that it’d rain on the event
I'm pretty sure the itasha event is the last Tuesday of each month at Daikoku, not the first Monday. Went to the one end of Feb while I was in Japan. Wish I could bring my car to it, but it's broke and not in Japan lol.
This is the stuff that started my car interests. I absolutely love it. One day...
The red GUP (girls und panzer) itasha looked nice
I wonder if their were any Neo Genesis Evangelion wraps or Elfen Lied wraps at the car show. Those 2 anime’s are on my top list of favorites of all time
🤘🏻💀🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥
Surprisingly when I was there I didn't see any Eva cars, but I could have missed it there were hundreds there
14:18 It's Nissan Liberty GT4
SR20DET is in it, so the car has an intercooler😂
Would love to see more of that CR-X I spied in the background of the Itasha meet.
i love how this guy goes to soo many meets and some some cool ass cars but doesnt have a car he can take to the meet other than the kei van
Oh god im glad im not trippin about the toyota crown vid🤣
14:20 Nissan prairie, at top trim it does have an SR20DET in it.
1:29 Pepega Mostwanted M3
"Itashi Meet Except I Google EVERY ANIME" 😂
Can we talk about how a Rem plushie is holding the two cars together at 12:02 😆
If you hold your phone with your palm facing upwards--as if grasping a wine glass form the bottom--you will find that the sway will be restricted to up and down motions, and it won't cause your viewers to vomit while watching the footage. Pro tip I heard from Alexi.
Please start showing more Mazda Alexas/3 would love some Japanese inspiration for mine
Anime meets car. I love both anime and cars and Asuna Yuuki of course ❤
Really good video as always Sam, about the bugeye in the parking garage, couldn’t agree more, because I have a wrx bugeye to 😂, but I have changed to those headlights (called morettes) and it looks a ton better.
That is a Honda Legend
Cadillac next to celica was fire 🔥
An auzzie walking around in a cult car meet in Japan... I wonder where this idea might came from🤔
White and yellow EG’s stole the snow IMO
Cappuccino love!!! Good to see them around
