Japan Has an Attack on Titan ATM Machine and It’s Pretty Hi-Tech

I feel like the days of “cash” are certainly slowing down.  I rarely if ever carry cash in my wallet and I personally think we’re only about 10 years away from a time where our phones will essentially be our entire lives.  We’ll be storing every possible important piece of information in our phones (if we’re not already) and using our phones for payments of every kind.  However, cash does exist and in order to get our cash we still use ATM machines.   I’m surprised this hasn’t existed yet but why not make our ATM experiences more enjoyable?  That seems to be what’s going on in Japan lately.

Just when you think you’ve seen every promotion possible, Japan goes and wheels out this Attack on Titan ATM.  According to Get News, the Attack On Titan is located at the Seven Bank in Tokyo’s Nakano Broadway. If you take a photo of the wall with a flash, it will reveal a Titan.

The Attack on Titan ATM will only be around for a limited time. After June 30, it will revert to a normal teller machine.  Frankly I’m not sure I want an ATM machine encouraging me to take photos (or anyone else for that matter) as I’m entering my Pin number.  Anyone else find this a little creepy and an invasion of privacy? At the same time I have to admit this is a pretty cool concept.
