The White Sox’ Luis Robert is an anime fan, and his car reflects that.

TMZ Sports reported that Robert hired Alex Vega of Miami’s The Auto Firm to cover his Lamborghini in a wrap featuring the anime series Naruto. The flashy artwork also glows in the dark.

The job cost Robert $10,000, TMZ said. That’s pocket change, considering TMZ said the car cost $1 million.
