OTACOOL

Greetings to all OTACOOL fans!

My name is Yoshikawa from Kotobukiya’s Publication Department and I am in charge of planning and release of OTACOOL. First of all I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for supporting the OTACOOL website, and introducing such wonderful rooms to us.

We have gone through each and every room that you posted and through great struggle, countless cups of coffee, and sleepless nights have selected the rooms we will be publishing in the book. Believe me it was not easy! Since there where so many great rooms out there, it was very difficult for us to decide which room to publish. Honestly speaking if it was possible we would have shown all the rooms in the book.

We feel honored and delighted that so many of you have accepted OTACOOL and have felt that you are part of this project. We feel proud that the Japanese Otaku Culture has been acknowledged and loved world wide.

Please let us thank you all again for posting your rooms and Danny Choo for being such a brilliant bridge between Kotobukiya and the fans. This book would have never come together if it weren’t for you all!

OTACOOL is scheduled to be released in October. We have already received lots of great compliments/comments on this project and feel that there is really something very special about this book. Please look forward to see which rooms will appear in the book!

Thank you,
Yoshikawa Daisuke
Kotobukiya Publication Department
