Hello! We’ve seen some really awesome Arashi doujinshi coming from Japan and so we thought we’d also give it a try by making one ourselves! It's 100% made in Canada, by Canadian fans :)
Lo and behold, in full-rainbow-fandom-glory, we present to you:
Kitto Cuticle, An Arashi Fanbook
Kitto Cuticle is an anthology containing comics, illustrations and fanfiction involving all members of Arashi!
The stories are mostly comical in nature (i.e. gen), featuring inside jokes and fan-favourite moments from Arashi's long career, with original twists courtesy of the creators. Recommended for all fans of Arashi, whether new or veteran, of all ages.
Please note: the book reads both ways, from left-to-right on one side and from right-to-left on the other, making it a charming hybrid of Western comics and Eastern manga styles!
SAMPLES:
The first fifty copies will include a bonus of two postcards from the artists! Reserve your copy now before they run out!

This is a bit of an experiment for all of us, so any feedback--likes, dislikes, suggestions and ideas for future plots--is welcome~ We’ve tried to keep costs low and haven’t printed too many copies--if goes well enough that we make a little bit of profit for the book, it will go into making a second one!
PLEASE VISIT OUR SITE FOR MORE SAMPLES OR TO ORDER. Books will ship from Montreal, Canada.
Books can also be purchased in person at the Montreal Otakuthon Anime Convention during the weekend of August 12-14th in the Artist’s Alley, for those who live in the area, or are planning to attend the con.
Anyways, I hope you guys get as much of a kick out of reading this as we did making it! Please feel free to spread the word and thanks for reading~
Love, Marin, Karen, & Kim
