The One Piece anime is turning 15 this year, and one of the birthday surprises includes a One Piece takeover of JR’s Yamanote Line.
From August 1 until August 15, the cars will wrapped in One Piece decorations, with walls sporting famous scenes from the anime, and One Piece paper and TV ads on the train.
One Piece and the Yamanote Line had a similar collaboration back in February 2011 when the One Piece manga sold over 200 million copies.
For other One Piece anime 15th anniversary celebrations, check out the info about the upcoming musical concert and commemorative merchandise, including animal figures, video game DLC, CDs, and even 3D mousepads.
