Overview

Cover art by Kami. World Trigger belongs to Shueisha and Daisuke Ashihara.

Trigger Off was a community-led, fanmade publication inspired by the series World Trigger by Daisuke Ashihara. The zine was produced during 2022-2023. It was released digitally and in print, accompanied by various merchandise designed by the team.

As the project's lead organizer, I was primarily responsible for website development, assembling the zine for pdf and print, illustrating assets, social media graphics, and product images for the online shop.

I was also responsible for packaging and shipping all of the zine bundles that were purchased.

Create a zine celebrating World Trigger for fans to enjoy.

Website

The zine website served many purposes throughout the production process, such as spreading awareness, providing inspiration for participants, providing information for both participants and customers, and acting as a hub with links to social media and the online shop.
