This zine collects the subtle differences found among ostensibly identical items. We observe those differences—different shapes but the same contents—through photographs and sketches. It also covers subjects ranging from urban structures to food, experimenting with layouts that unsettle the sense of scale.

Zindies, the online service that connects zines, creators, shops, and readers, is rapidly evolving! This time, four members of the Zindies project will gather in Nagoya to show everyone how to use it! We welcome creators, shops, and readers to join us!

This book was born from the daydream of "what if I opened a wagashi shop?" Drawing a little on my real experience making wagashi in a shop, I tried to turn the scenes and sensations I encountered in the seasons into sweets, one by one. The blooming of flowers, the steady falling of rain, the shimmering of light. I wanted to shape those ordinary seasonal moments so they could fit in the palm of your hand. I hope that as you turn the pages you will feel the daily changes and the presence of the seasons.
