This year marks the 15th anniversary of the ultra-popular cartoon character Rilakkuma. To celebrate, Rilakkuma has teamed up with Keikyu Electric Railway, which is also celebrating its 120th anniversary, to launch a limited-time, super-cute “Rilakkuma × Keikyu Train 120th Anniversary Joint Train.” The train is covered inside and out with Rilakkuma images, and it has attracted a lot of attention from fans since its debut.

Since 2016, Keikyu Electric Railway’s collaboration with Rilakkuma to launch joint trains has been well received. This time, they have created three joint series trains at once: the “Rilakkuma Strawberry Celebration,” the “Happy Yellow Chick,” and the “Little White Bear and Tea Bear.” Not only do the exteriors feature cute Rilakkuma designs, but the interiors are also filled with Rilakkuma imagery, drawing fans’ attention.
Aside from the exterior featuring adorable Rilakkuma patterns, the interior also includes Rilakkuma signboards, posters, and illustrations. (Photo/Dtimes)
In addition to the painted trains, to celebrate this joint event, Keikyu Electric Railway specially redesigned the station signs at “Keikyu Kurihama, Kamata, and Otorii” stations, creating brand-new special signs covered in Rilakkuma patterns for fans to take photos with. They also launched a series of Rilakkuma train joint merchandise, including Rilakkuma sundries, stationery, and plush toys—all designed to look like train conductors, which are incredibly cute.

Besides the trains, restaurants inside specific Keikyu Electric Railway stations, such as “Ekimenya,” are selling limited-time Rilakkuma meals, and a limited-time joint café has also been set up on the fourth floor of Keikyu Department Store. Related sweets have also appeared at Yokohama and Kamata stations in Japan—fans traveling to Japan shouldn’t miss out.
