About the zine
What's this? Our favorite wandering samurai seems to have "wandered off" to other universes! Follow Kaedehara Kazuha as he journeys through different worlds in 放浪秋 [Houroushuu], a Kazuha AU zine.

Specifications
Houroushuu is planned to be a for-profit, A5-sized zine with a side ship zine. The main zine will be available in both physical and digital format, and will focus on Kazuha in different types of alternate universe settings such as: coffee shop au, urban fantasy au, and many more! Meanwhile, the side ship zine will only be available digitally and will focus more on Kazuha ships. Both zines will be SFW.

Merch items include: art prints, sticker sheet, charms, button pin (stretch goal), shaker charm (stretch goal), and enamel pin (final stretch goal).

Contributor Information
We're currently planning on having 24 page artists, 6 writers, and 4 merch artists to join the team! All contributors are guaranteed to receive at least a digital PDF copy as compensation. Since this is a for-profit project, all contributors and mods will be 18 years of age or above. Communications during the zine creation phase will be made via a discord server.
