Manga Artist × Big Romantic | Special Co-branded Project Start!

Make love into a T-shirt.

Have you heard any stories about

"musicians who want to be manga artists" or "manga artists who want to be musicians"?

Or have you heard such a story?

When creating, manga artists like to put their favorite music on the playlist, create a creative music box, and improve the concentration of their pen tip in the music melody.

When composing music, musicians are used to repeatedly reading their favorite comics and drawing inspiration from the world outlook of comics.

If you have heard of such a story, you should agree with such a point of view.

"Manga and music are inseparable and love each other."

Under the epidemic, the music industry has ushered in an unprecedented crisis, including us. We have faced many difficulties in the past two years.

But we still believe that the power that music and live performances can give us is irreplaceable, and it is still our mission to convey the charm of music and live performances.

So we started such a project.

It was born out of the love of music.

It came to a joint project with all these brilliant manga artists and Moonromantic (Tokyo Aoyama/Taipei), the offline performance space from Big Romantic Entertainment.
