volume of Garasu no Kamen, Italian version.

November 2005: My fan art "Punch" was included in the Parody section of

forget that and I will always be grateful.

August 28th 2017: My website was mentioned in Japanese magazine AERA, in
an article for Glass no Kamen's 40th anniversary!
Ms Yuko Yanai interviewed me for an article dedicated to Glass no
Kamen's 40th anniversary. AERA magazine (August 28th, 2017).
Thanks to wonderful KATE for the translation.
Francesca Mancuso, an Italian woman (38), first saw the anime, and then got addicted
to the manga.
She runs the website "Maya's Glass Mask". She is known in Japan as an avid fan. She
is currently working as a designer in the UK. We interviewed her via email.
"Maya is full of passion and she is working very hard to chase her dreams.
That is what resonates with me.
And I love Masumi Hayami, who is Murasaki no Bara no Hito.
He is a secret admirer who supports Maya's career secretly.
It is natural for many women to adore him."

2018) was one of the 3 works chosen by Miuchi sensei to receive a signed postcard!
