SoftBank's collaboration with Kuroko's Basketball includes not only a mobile base station vehicle with a special character wrap, but also a roving band of employees wandering around the event with portable Wi-Fi hotspots. Customers signed up for SoftBank's Wi-Fi spot service will also notice that the network name will be changed to SB_IGNITE_, in honor of Tetsuya Kuroko's famous move.
The SoftBank dog is getting Kuroko-fied as well; the series' Tetsuya #2 will be guest-starring for the weekend.
Meanwhile, NTT Docomo will be offering a similar service, with a Docomo Anime Store's streaming service will receive a special clear file.
