Nakasako san has sent me the Aki Sisters Anthology Project Autumn book. This book was published for Comiket 76 (Comic Market 76) Event at August. Two copies was sent using EMS, and I'm so happy with :D

What is this book anyway?
Machikado Mapoze circle member, Nakasako is loving so much to Aki Sisters, the Goddess of Harvest and Autumn. However, he found out if these Gensokyo Goddess area less popular than any other Gensokyo characters, so he decided to make this project.

Interested in multiple cultures from outside Japan, Nakasako, via Talka informing if this project will accepting submission from Circles outside Japan.
Since I also one of Touhou fan, I think I can give a shot. I contact Nakasako san, he replied and asking my drawing sample of Touhou characters. I sent it to him and he gave his OK.


Under the name of Nekoroid (Circle name), I sent six pages of Manga. There's some error in the grammar, but I think still readable (Talka mention it how dificult to translate this kind of error, sorry dude XD).

The participants of this project came from: Singapore, Portugal, America, Colombia, Argentine, Sweden, Korea, Indonesia, etc.

The book it self is designed to be opened in both side.

The other side

As you might already known, Japanese book was binded at the right side (read from right to left) while American, Europe, Indonesia, and other country was binded at the left side.
Nakasako use this to ease people in reading the book.

This project also came not without problem. Despite the deadline (where some of us are miss it, sorry about that too :D) I just know from the book if some of Circles also resigned from this project without any satisfying reason. And judging from what Nakasako has said, it seems those Circles resigning them self near the deadline or when all of arrangement has been completed for the book.

At the begining of the pages (both sides) there's some color pages.



This is the color page at the english page (mostly English). This page is created by Walfas.


And of course this is my work in this book :D

The story is about how Yukari Yakumo being angry because Aki Sisters and the other was invited to the harvest event. But it turn out, only a miscomunication. But, everything is too late, using Marisa's hand, Minoriko "punish" the gap demon.

This one is made by Happy Flame Time circle.
Their story always funny and make me laugh.


Short story also available in this book. For people who prefer in writing than drawing.


A DVD also provided the contents are: Music, Game, Mouse Cursor, Screen Saver.


With almost 2 centimeter thickness, this book also bundled with two cellphone strap. Minoriko and Shizuha Aki in chibi form. The strap is smaller than I thought, but the quality is in the top. You know, pictures on computer screen always seems bigger than the actuall item :D


Even I actually already download this book, but I must admit, holding and reading from the real one is the best experience!
Also this is my first work who ever published as a printed material.
I know, this is a join forces work, a doujinshi based on derivated work but still, I'm happy. To be able participating in the big event, Comic Market 76 is very proudfull for me.

For those who interested to get this book, you can go to White Canvas, Melon Book, or Toranoana online shop.
