Our company endorses April Dream, an initiative to make April 1st a day for announcing dreams. This press release is the dream of "Gekito Sengokuden Honjin."
Gekito Sengokuden Honjin (Representative managing company: Physio Co., Ltd.) dreams of realizing the 'Golden Sengoku Soul Project (tentative title)' as a new development for their palm-sized art, the Sengoku warlord stickers "Gekito Sengokuden," by transforming all historical warlords into pure gold.
■ "Timeless Thoughts" Encapsulated in a Small 48mm Sticker
"Gekito Sengokuden" has, until now, expressed the lives and historical anecdotes of Sengoku warlords through 48mm square stickers. The core theme of Gekito Sengokuden is that when stickers are passed into people's hands and exchanged, "thoughts are connected across time and space." The bonus sticker culture of the 1980s was not just a fleeting boom; it is still loved by many people and passed down through generations. We strongly wished to preserve this charm and passion, born from the lineage of illustrators who worked on hit titles of that era, for an even more distant future.
■ From Ukiyo-e to 48mm Stickers: Connecting Modern "Warrior Paintings" to the Future
Sengoku warlords have been depicted in various media, such as ukiyo-e and warrior paintings, in each era, and passed down to posterity. We believe that the Sengoku warlords depicted in a deformed style on 48mm square stickers are also splendid "contemporary art." The artwork for "Gekito Sengokuden" is handled by Studio Melfun, which led the bonus sticker boom of the 1980s and created huge hits like "Gamla Twist" and "Ramen Baa." Children who were engrossed in them back then have grown up, and they continue to love this sticker art across generations.
■ Passing the Baton from the Past to the Present, and to the Future
We want to pass on this passionate baton, inherited from the 80s to the present, to the future. We strongly wished to preserve the wonderful techniques and illustrations of our current era in a form that will never fade for future generations. "Pure gold," which has continued to shine eternally and captivated people since ancient times. Our ultimate dream is to transform this illustration from paper to pure gold, engraving it into the future as a "timeless heirloom." We will pursue this romance not just as merchandise, but as a cultural inheritance that conveys the splendor of the present era for hundreds of years to come. From Taiko Hideyoshi Toyotomi to famous warlords and princesses, all characters will be given eternal life in the golden glow, and we will continue to run towards this dream until they reach the hands of people in the future.
