千葉ットマン

This is my translation of a Satori Reader news article.

A man disguised as batman and riding a bike through Chiba’s streets has become a topic of conversation. Because he is traveling through Chiba, people are calling him “Chi-batman”. He talso tried to model the bike to be the same form as the “Batman” movie (it seems).

Chibatman said he got his starting chance in Tokyo’s big earthquake in 2011. He said that he wanted to see everyone smile, and everyone else wanted to smile, so he started. Amazingly, when it was time to take attendance at work, he tried to have Chibatman’s form.

Upon investigation it seems that this man is 41 years old and unmarried. His name has not been revealed to the public. It seems he works as a welder. People on the street wonder when Catwoman will appear and talk about it.
