Even though it’s the child of a Japanese immigrant in Europe and a French parent (PSA Group), Toyota sees no reason why the new Aygo shouldn’t embrace its Japanese side.

Toyota hooked up with Manga artist Sonia Leong and created a short animated film that follows the Heroine and her Aygo as they both suit up to save the city from a giant Godzilla-like monster that’s on a downtown rampage.

The video is part of a multi-level artsy campaign for the new generation Aygo city car that shares its underpinnings and mechanical hardware with the Citroen C1 and Peugeot 108.
