痛バッグ

• 読み: いたバッグ

• 発音: /i.ta.ba.ɡːɯ/

意味

A bag covered in character pins, keychains, and merchandise — a visible declaration of fandom worn in public.

痛バッグ borrows from 痛車 (itasha, cars decorated with anime characters) and applies the same concept to bags. Fans fill clear-windowed bags with pins, badges, acrylic stands, and other merchandise of their favorite character. The 痛 (painful) refers to the 'painfully' intense display of otaku love. Carrying a 痛バッグ is both a fashion statement and a way to find fellow fans in public.
