It is "even more ordinary" among the regulars. But the interesting part is the doregular.
Regular T-shirt fans have been waiting for you. It has been about nine months since the last "Regular T-Shirt Exhibition III" was held. For our readers who don't know what happened last time, please tell us again what kind of event it is. This is the third time that I have visited ...... (laughs).
Nakano:(laughs). Regular T-shirts are the opposite of vintage T-shirts in the old fashioned sense of the word, and are items that can be bought normally. The "Doregular T-shirt Exhibition" is a collection of regular T-shirts with "de" added to mean "even more regular. In short, it is an event to "find value in things that have not yet gained value.
By the way, who was the first to sell out last time?
Hatanaka:Nakano-kun, isn't it?
Nakano:It's our home, after all (laughs). Last time, Kazuki stayed until the end, didn't you?
Izmt:Yes, yes. I was the last one left in the first round (laughs).
Q: Since this was your third time, was it difficult to make the selections in the sense that you had to surpass the previous and previous years' selections?
Nakano:Last time we prepared about 120 sheets of 40 sheets each, and it was the same this time. I thought about increasing the number a little, but that was the limit. In addition, in my case, I was not a regular ...... and there were many times when I was not a starter.
Hatanaka:I think I had a little bit of a problem with the size last time. That's why I was very selective this time.
Izmt:I also attacked a bit maniacal things like special disassembly bindings, ....... However, I have no intention of making use of my reflection and making an auspicious attempt to connect it to the next one (laughs). However, I'm trying to avoid putting out S-sizes as much as possible, and I'm selling the rejected ones as "anoraks".
(laughs). Now, the recommendation time, which we have been waiting for! One by one, please tell us about the T-shirts you have brought and tell us "what is interesting about them". As in the previous session, may I start with you first, Mr. Nakano?
Izmt:Yesterday, I asked Nakano-kun to turn it in first if possible. I can't even think of a good punchline. ......
All:(Laughter).
Hatanaka:In terms of flow, it would be good to start with Nakano-kun and end with Izmt-chan, wouldn't it?
Nakano:Well, let's do that.
