The Castle of Cagliostro (also known as Lupin III: Cagliostro No Shiro) spins the fantastic tale of master thief Lupin III, traveling to the European province of Cagliostro (pronounced “Cal-ee-os-tro”) to pull off a huge job. When a chance encounter with the Princess Clarice, engaged to the evil Count Cagliostro, distracts him from his original plans, he also stumbles upon a secret kept for over 500 years and now struggles to keep one step ahead of Cagliostro. Torn between his professional objectives and his increasing affections for Princess Clarice, Lupin is locked in a race to solve the mystery of a fabulous hidden treasure, dating back to the Renaissance...

"cover to cover" show is on line. so please check out...and thank you for coming opening and giving me hugs and love.
here is my painting I did for the show,a little bit about my painting....
so..what does "cover" means to me...? I questioned myself.
I do not have any COVERWORK yet..so I checked dictionary...to know, if there are inspirational meanings of "cover",
and I got idea..
it is like this,"I am the leader as who i am, and my characters,SENA are my teams, I need to COVER them to protect them from evils or bad things, but also we are fighting as team to feel happiness..to make people feel happiness! that is what good side of "sekaiseifuku" means!..
so I painted them..they are also covering eachother...can you see? thank you for sena, kento, and my inspiring friends, without them..I am nothing..
thank you for Nucleus...without your support..I am not here ,...
