For buyers at a first-come-first-serve basis, the bandana, which is also autographed by Nakagawa, will be included with purchase of an applicable product available through Beams. The special offer concludes when all stock is sold.

The design references an earlier collaboration between MMTS and Junji Ito, which spawned “Yon & Mu” yukatas and dresses, still up for grabs online.

One story I’ve posted about before appears in Ito’s new “Venus in the Blind Spot”. Called “How Love Came to Professor Kirida”, it was originally titled “How Love Came to Professor Guildea” and was written by Robert Hichens, adapted to manga by Ito.
