This is a leap, and cats can do better.</p><p><br></p><p>Wakayama Electric Railway Company asked a designer to design Kishi Station into a smiling cat face, and tailored the unique Kodama tram. The Kodama tram looks like a tourist bus in an amusement park, with a cat-shaped front and 101 "kawaii" kittens painted on the outside of the car. Because Kodama is a tricolor cat, the floor of the car also has three colors, and the kitten's footprints are scattered all over the floor like petals.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/0356r12000cjjn6kg1350_Z_1000_0.jpg" source="ttd" imageid="12548117" sourcewidth="750" sourcehight="503"></p><p>Kuroshio Market is located on the seaside of Wakayama City.
