This a fan-run, non-official Persona 5 zine featuring the pairing between the P5 protagonist (Kurusu Akira/Amamiya Ren) and Kitagawa Yusuke described using flower language.

Although primarily an art zine, we will also be featuring some written work in the book, as well as a bonus merch bundle that you can purchase for a full collection!

Basic info

  • SFW and will feature both writing and art (primarily art)
  • The flower language theme is abstract: you do not actually have to draw a specific flower, but only take inspiration from the meaning! However, if you want to take it literally and choose to include the physical flower, then please feel free to do so as well!
  • For profit

Flower theme?
