When I took a ride with the water bus Himiko on the Sumida river, from Asakusa to Odaiba, I was surprised to see on the deck a few characters from the anime series Galaxy Express 999.
I found out afterwards that the ship was designed by a mangaka, the creator of Galaxy Express 999 and Captain Harlock, Leiji Matsumoto.
Himiko has a really great design, teardrop shaped, with a glass roof.
More Himiko pictures on the photo gallery.
