Japanese Artists Reimagined Countries And Their Flags As Anime Characters For 2020 Tokyo Olympics

August 1, 2021 by World News

TOKYO|

While Tokyo is busy with the preparations for the 2020 Olympics, people are already psyched for it. Some Japanese artists have created an unofficial promotion campaign for the big event, drawing inspiration from a subject they are incredibly passionate about Anime.

They’ve been reimagining the participating countries as badass characters who are ready to go into combat, and the designs are very Japanese in an excellent way. Each “competitor” is created with the history, culture, and national identity of the corresponding country in mind, offering a visual harmonious diversity. Which is what the Olympics is about.
