Just a month after the accident, I was back on the road — and shortly after, the hood of the new car was wrapped. I had contracts to fulfill, events to attend, and no time to dwell. Life has a funny way of forcing you to return to your roots — whether you’re ready or not.
The hood was designed by me, Dante Takamura — a fusion of my love for art and Pokémon. It was my first-ever Itasha design, and I decided to take a chance on myself. Through the process I learned a lot, challenged what I thought I knew, and created something I could finally be proud of — something the world could actually see.
The side pieces were brought to life by a beautiful and talented artist who took my vision and ideas and shaped them into her own style. Together, we created the artwork that made this car stand out — a true blend of collaboration, passion, and creativity.
My plans are simple: continue learning everything I can while slowly adding more and more love to the car. Not much else to say — just steady progress, patience, and passion guiding every step forward.
