This is the first collection of paintings by Yusuke Nakamura. The number of pages and paper quality of the entire book are quite substantial!
The appearance of the album is designed to look like a music album, with a square book body and a promotional backing paper that looks like a CD. I personally like it~
When I listened to the song "ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION" before, I noticed the very well-recognizable album cover. According to Wikipedia, all their album covers are designed by Yusuke Nakamura. This kind of cross-border cooperation is great!
It also seems to add a layer of fun to the collection of albums (a whole row looks very coordinated) XD.
I often see the works of Yusuke Nakamura in various places, and the one that is more well-known to the public may be "Reasoning should be after dinner"Cover series illustrations, included in the second album "NOW"Among.
The work is really creative, marveling at the small ingenuity of many details!

", Akagawa Jiro’s masterpiece collection library edition, covers of works by Ishida, Koichi, Sakino, and Eiichi Ikegami, and the famous Yusuke Nakamura, with a retro and slender style, and an atmosphere in music and text.
