116 Pages of Raw Intensity. Trace the Vision of NUTS.TOKYO.

Thank you so much to everyone who’s been supporting my photography.

Because of your support, I’ve been able to do things I never thought possible—like showing my work at Taipei PHOTO, photographing the coming-of-age ceremony in Kyushu, capturing the Milky Way in Fukushima, and even documenting a rocket launch.

And now, I’ve turned those moments into something physical—I made the latest issue of 404 to share it all with you.

The latest issue is titled 404 CONTACT SHEETS – NUTS.TOKYO.
As many of you already know, I usually shoot on film. For this one, I put together a selection of photos I’ve taken over the past two years—centered around contact sheets.

It ended up being 116 pages long, making it the most substantial and in-depth zine I’ve made so far.

You’ll find street scenes, pole dancers, underground clubs, Ainu culture, abandoned sites, rocket launches, and yakuza festivals—all unfolding across Tokyo and Taipei.

It’s a raw, one-of-a-kind collection of photos capturing the pulse of East Asia.

Also, the very first page of the zine includes a 5x7 print tucked inside—signed, of course. You can even take it out and frame it if you’d like.
I personally love adding little extras like this, and I hope it brings you a bit of joy too.

I’ve made a number of zines over the years, but this one feels like a real milestone.
From the layout to the choice of paper to the final print quality—I’m genuinely happy with every part of it.

Pre-orders are now open online until May 14. Your support through this zine helps make future photo projects, new work, and exhibitions possible.

I truly believe this is my most complete work so far—and I’m confident it won’t let you down. If you’re interested, I’d be really happy if you grabbed a copy.

Limited Bonus: Free Rocket Launch Contact Sheet Print

As I mentioned in the last newsletter, if you place your order by May 14, you’ll receive a free 8x10 contact sheet print of the rocket launch.

Each one is hand-printed by me in the darkroom—so don’t miss this chance to get both the zine and a physical print straight from the source.

A Crowd Favorite at the May 1–2 Exhibition

404 CONTACT SHEETS was first released at my recent exhibition—and even though it was just a two-day weekday event, a lot of people picked up a copy. Huge thanks to everyone who came by!

From Tokyo’s darkroom to your hands. Get yours before they’re gone.
