Have you ever heard of the Manga Train?
It is a train running on the JR Senseki Line between Sendai City and Ishinomaki City, with characters from Ishinomori's works wrapped on the body of the train. Every Sunday, one of two types of trains runs, but you will have to wait until the day of the event to find out which train you will see!

You can also get a commemorative Mangattan Liner ride certificate at the Ishinomaki Station platform as a souvenir of your ride!

Ishinomaki City is promoting urban development utilizing manga, and this train was made possible through cooperation between JR and Ishinomaki City in order to revitalize the community.
The illustrations on the car body depict "Cyborg 009," "Masked Rider," "Goranger," and "Robocon," all popular works by manga artist Shotaro Ishinomori, making this train a must for fans!
The name "Mangattan" was also derived from the shape of the Nakase area where the Ishinomori Mangattan Museum is located, which resembles the topography of Manhattan Island in New York City.

The road from Ishinomaki Station to the Ishinomori Manga Museum includes a street called "Ishinomaki Manga Road," which is full of intriguing and fun contents! Please come to Ishinomaki on the "Mangattan Liner".
