The moe phenomenon continues to conquer the world with a new collaboration between Japan and Switzerland: an original moe character named Nozomi that represents the Swiss Rhaetian Railway company.
Nozomi is illustrated by Pixiv artist Nekogamirin_c based on a concept by Rayun (@rayunch), a civil servant in Zurich who moonlights as an otaku cultural ambassador. Nozomi's uniform combines elements from both the uniforms of Rhaetian Railway employees in Switzerland and from the uniforms of Hakone Tozan Railway employees in Japan.
The character of Nozomi was created as part of the promotions for the 17th JapAniManga Night convention, which will be held from May 26 - 28, 2017, in Davos, Graubünden, Switzerland. The event is a celebration of Japanese culture, including food, cosplay, and music events. Voice actress / singer Kaori Sadohara is scheduled to attend as a guest.
