Are you ready for Summer? 😌🫶🏻🍋✨
Dear Team YTZ,
I’m back! 🥺💖
For those who may have missed my updates, I went through two spine surgeries earlier this year in February and March, and I’m now officially 5 months post-op. Recovery from spine surgery can take up to a year or even longer, so I’m still learning to listen to my body and take things one day at a time.
I honestly don’t know how long I’ll be able to stay each day during the event, but I’m just so grateful that I’m well enough to be back again. After everything that happened this year, being able to prepare for AniManGaki and see everyone again already means so much to me. 🥺🫶🏻
And somehow… I got a little ambitious this summer. 🤣🍋✨
I prepared not one, but TWO original photobook projects for you this time! This summer is going to be HOT. ☀️🔥
Pre-0rder ends tonight at 9PM, so if you haven’t placed yours yet, do check it out!

Because of my spine condition, I’ll be pre-signing everything in advance. That way, instead of spending most of my time at the booth signing, I can use whatever energy I have to talk, take photos, and spend more time with all of you. 💖
I’m not quite sure how my spine is going to survive a 3-day event 🤣 but I’ll listen to my body, rest whenever I need to, and do my best to be there as much as I can.
More than anything, I’m just incredibly thankful to be able to come back and do what I love again. Thank you for continuing to support me through my recovery, for being patient with me, and for always cheering me on. It really means more than you know. 🥺💖
