Chachagoma Illustration Works (Japanese only, mostly visual)

Chachagoma is an illustrator who works in the realm of Japanese 2D visual pop and anime culture – from music video and novel illustrations, to character design and album jacket designs, to merchandise for musicians such as Mafumafu, Amatsuki, and Matsushita. In commemoration of their tenth year working as an artist, this monumental collection offers a complete overview of Chachagoma’s work, and includes forty artworks commissioned especially for this collection. From adorable works featuring penguins, chicks and other birds together with little girls, to boys with jet-black wings like a demon’s, angels, and other anthropomorphized beings, this collection is full of charming characters. Chachagoma’s sensitively rendered translucent watercolour works, including forty artworks created for this collection, are now together in one volume. We hope you will enjoy these works of Chachagoma, a leading illustrator of Japan’s online music video world who is also tremendously popular among young fans from the Japanese anime generation.
