If we first seeSISTERHOOD: Selected Works of Men Xiaolei"Makes me interested in the characters in Men Xiaolei's works, and "Kylooe Trilogy", her story and the presentation of images directly and deeply attracted me!

I really like the design of this "10th Anniversary Collection Complete Collection". The silver spine of the book box is shining with iridescent appearance. I immediately grab my attention. Decorated with cute Kylooe. The three books use yellow, red, and pink as the main visual colors.

Surprisingly, there is also packaging inside the book box, and the little Kylooe is a small easter egg🙂

The attached postcards (9 in total) are quite commemorative, including the cover of the Kylooe set of calligraphy and the Hong Kong version of the past.

By the way, the postcards are neatly scattered (?) in the collections (two pages in one page and one page in the other). It is said that it is a postcard set and I thought it would be tied with a transparent bag. In a piece of XD, it’s also better to share the volume, and it won’t make the book uneven.

The Kylooe trilogy is composed of "The Melancholy Dragonfly. "Farewell to the Rainbow", "Green Tunnel", and "Goodbye Smile" are composed of three chapters. The only connection point is probably Kylooe, which symbolizes dreams (not too much thunder). I also really want to watch Kylooe's cartoons.

After reading the three stories in one go, there is no time for memorizing and rereading. Each of the three different stories exudes a unique charm, I can’t guess the feeling of the following plot is really good~

But my favorite is the "Green Tunnel". I was probably attracted by the Rin Fei in the story. She is cute and straightforward and reveals sexy inadvertently. I really want to be friends with her!

Different people will have different feedback after reading the same story.

只想說，日常生活中無法做到的，就盡情地在漫畫（插畫）世界揮灑吧！不管是創作的一方，還是欣賞的一方。

作者門小雷的其他幾本作品集，包括《SISTERHOOD: Selected Works of Men Xiaolei", "Collection of Men Xiaolei: SCENT OF HONG KONG"(Japanese version), "Men Xiaolei's Comic Works: Algae and Waves and Infinity"(Japanese version).

I really hope that Taiwan can also act as an agent for other publications of Men Xiaolei's paintings!

Official Introduction

"My real name is Kylooe, which means "dream". You have to remember my name and dream here again!"
The number of Instagram followers exceeded 800,000. Hong Kong's representative cartoonist Men Xiaolei's "Kylooe" trilogy 10th Anniversary Collection Commemorative Edition-Melancholic Dragonfly. Farewell to the rainbow|green tunnel|goodbye smile.

Kylooe, dream, is a mysterious behemoth that soothes lonely girls; it is a cartoon that I loved when I was a child, at the end of the tunnel to greet the empty me when I grow up; it is a world where expressing emotions is illegal, and people’s only outlet...

This set of "Kylooe" series of works was drawn and published by Men Xiaolei, commissioned by the French-speaking comics publisher Kana in 2010. Through three stories, with a unique and exquisite comic language, it accurately depicts people's affection and love. , Friendship and even the depression, loneliness and emptiness under the social system, and Kylooe, the fantasy beast that symbolizes "dreams," faintly reminds people of the possibility of being saved by "dreams."

In the first song "Farewell to the Rainbow", Lan Le, who has just transferred to a new school, is out of place at school and is regarded as an outlier; at home, she is also ignored by her parents and seems to never compare to her cute sister who studies abroad. , Making her fall into a loop of self-loathing. But one day, Kylooe, the furry beast on the record jacket, appeared in her real life and took her to the world of dreams, making her discover that she was also able to be happy and feel free. But after Kylooe "died" after a car accident, Lan Le once again lost her only spiritual sustenance in her life...

In the second part "Green Tunnel", Lin Sanyi recalled betting with his classmates in high school to see whoever got his girlfriend the soonest and then dumped the other party to win, so he and the taciturn and solitary Lengfei in the class With interaction. After getting to know him deeply, he discovered that Lengfei actually loves painting, and the temperature between the two of them quickly became warmer. But after an accident, Lin Sanyi gradually moved away from Lengfei, and the heartbroken Lengfei evaporated from the world until one day Lin Sanyi saw a piece of news on TV...

By the time of the trilogy "Goodbye Smile", the world was emptied in a society where just "showing emotions" would break the law. Even though the laughable and susceptible boy Miles was severely taught by his father, he still violated the law and was eventually sent to prison. In prison, he met Nath, a man who is brave enough to express emotions, and Lea, a pole dancer. But after he was released from prison, he discovered that his father had passed away unexpectedly and the "Emotional Regulations" had been abolished. Now this society has become a "only laugh" society...
