The Oarai Anko Matsuri (Oarai Anglerfish Festival) livery, which celebrate the anglerfish at Oarai, Ibaraki.

what does it taste?

Operation 30 year livery

well, somehow the Oarai is linked with Girl and Panzers, but I don't want to dig the history of it

anyway, The Oarai Anko Matsuri is happening on 16/11~17/11, you may want to give it a visit if you have time.

and they even have freight service despite being a pretty small private railway company

To save you the digging, the Girls und Panzer story follows a school called Ooarai and the anglerfish is used as their mascot.

I didn’t realize Ooarai was a real place and now I have to go there.
