The World Cosplay Summit (WCS) event held in Nagoya, Japan is pretty popular among otaku for its outstanding cosplay costumes being shown off by representatives of 22 different nations.

Another otaku loved thing showcased at this international event is Itasha and many of them. According to wikipedia Itasha 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.", or to most others an amazing car with anime on it.

Some pretty awesome examples of itasha,
