Volume 1 of Karakaraen "Paradon", originally written by Ichiyōki, was released today, May 18th. To coincide with the release, a collaboration with soccer shop KAMO, a soccer equipment specialty store, is also being carried out.
The Story of Paradon
"Paradon" depicts the activities of a high school soccer club, centering around Yusei Harumi, the second goalkeeper who warms up on the bench as a substitute for his seniors, and his younger brother, Arashi, a forward who is also on the Japan under-15 national team. Arashi, who quit his professional team and enrolled in Yuharu's high school, declares, "I'm going to take you to the nationals," and in the Red and White match, he shows off his overwhelming ability to match his irreverent words and actions. As friction arises within the team, Yuharu suddenly participates in the match. He saves all of Arashi's shots, which he was completely unable to stop as a senior, and instantly gains attention within the team.
Collaboration with KAMO
In collaboration with soccer shop KAMO, we are running a campaign where 3 people will win a ball (No. 2 ball) autographed by Ichiyoki and Karakara En, and 10 people will win a postcard with autographs. Applications will be accepted on a special page from today until May 31st.
