Pokémon-themed airplanes are appearing in the skies over Japan. Solaseed Airlines, based on the Japanese island of Kyushu, debuted a Pokémon-painted plane on December 19. According to CNN, the new themed craft made its maiden flight from Miyazaki City to Tokyo's Haneda airport. The plane is part of a collaboration between The Pokémon Company and various regions of Japan. There are currently eight prefectures involved in the collaboration between POkemon and the tourism board. Each prefecture is assigned a dedicated Pokémon character of its own.
Japan Railways East unveiled an entire Pikachu-themed train where the adorable yellow and brown Pokemon is nearly everywhere on a sight-seeing train in the country's earthquake-stricken region, as part of a disaster relief project. The train will begin its daily service July 15th and run throughout the summer holiday season on the Ofunato Line. It will depart at Ichinoseki and arrive in Kesennuma in just under two hours.
One new service in Japan lets star-struck lovers of cartoon characters express their infatuation in the ultimate way - people in Japan can now marry their virtual boyfriend or girlfriend in the ultimate virtual wedding ceremony.
