Japanese artist: "I drew it as large and obnoxious as possible!"

Westerners: "it's adorable that you think that"

What an adorably truck-kun you have!

That is the largest truck that someone who's spent their whole life in Japan can conceptualize. Japan is a land of tiny trucks.

Hummer H2s had a certain popularity in Japan for a while.

It's an even more impractical and ridiculous car over there than it is in America, but they did it.

I once saw a Hummer in Japan. I have no idea how that person managed to get by in one. Some of the roads are so old that they're barely wide enough for a regular vehicle, and rare is the oversized parking spot.

They kept the buildings and truck in proportion. Everything else, including the tesla were just enlarged to be visible.
