CUTEG & Piah – Meganeko3 min read
Reading Time: 2 minutesKorean artists CUTEG and Piah jointly released a collection of glasses girls illustrations called Meganeko at Comiket 77. It’s full color, with everyone from Hatsune Miku to Yuki Nagato sporting cute and classy frames.
Unlike most doujinshi, Meganeko is A4 in size, 16 pages, and on thick card-stock pages. It’s staple-bound and a matte metallic printing is used through out the book on text and image outlines. It’s a nice little embellishment.
This may well have just been an of CUTEG’s Sweet Impact were it not for the addition of Piah. Piah’s illustrations really have an interesting range. Sometimes they’re exceedingly simple in detail, and others you may just mistake them for CUTEG’s.
Another beautiful Hatsune Miku by CUTEG. There was also one with Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka (in glasses) in Sweet Impact. I think it would have fit it perfectly in this book!
The two above are both by Piah. The left is Kino from Kino’s Journey and the right is Ryuuji and Taiga from Toradora! with photo booth style illustrations.
And here’s a shot of the index, where you can see it all. Meganeko sold out quickly on Toranoana, so your best option is Yahoo Japan.
