Vehicle Artwork & Adult Materials

The AnimeNEXT Car Show’s purpose is to showcase vehicles inspired by the Japanese car culture, including but not limited to Itasha, drift cars, race cars, streetcars, and replica vehicles inspired by anime and video games.

Adult Material is allowed so long as it is covered at all times, as they are publicly displayed on the show floor. Adult Material is defined as anything sexually explicit, portraying sexual acts and nudity. Nudity is considered showing any body part(s) that would be normally covered by a typical bathing suit–swim trunks/Speedo for males, bikini for females.

  1. Each vendor that applies and is accepted will have one entry PER CAR into the selection. Any duplicates will be consolidated into one single entry.
  2. Any vendor found to be applying under multiple names will be immediately rejected from the selection and may be banned from exhibiting at future events.
