＼Savoring／ ZINE Appreciation Gathering
Wednesday, March 25, 2026 11:00〜13:00If you spot something that catches your eye, you'll want to savor it. That's all — a relaxed get-together. "I wonder what kind of ZINEs people read?" "I want to know ZINEs I haven't discovered yet." That curiosity popped up, and so... This is a gathering to simply adore ZINEs: the fleeting thrills you might never encounter again, impulsive ZINE purchases at events, or those that touched your "heartstrings." 1st dish "Admire your favorite ZINE" It's nice to read alone, but when you think "I want to share this with others!", please tell us what you love about that work or ZINE. How you found it How it felt to read it The world of deeply personal ZINEs — even if you don't know much about ZINEs or have never bought one, if you like reading books, you're welcome! If you're interested in making ZINEs, this could be a chance to learn what perspectives others use when creating them and how readers receive them. There are lots of ZINEs available to browse inside Kotokoto Shoten (provisional). After lightly admiring ZINEs... 2nd dish "Savoring deliciously" Have a hamburger lunch at "Oga-ya", next door to Kotokoto Shoten (provisional), and chat about ZINEs, books, or anything at all! (That said, the hamburger is by no means the main event!)
