In Tokyo, where tradition and the cutting edge coexist in a chaotic mix, new cultures emerge every day, with distinctive scenes taking shape in different corners of the city. And in every era, it is the people who gather in these places who shape those cultures. As times change, cultures evolve, and so do the people who gather around them and the character of the city itself. Our new series, “FACE of TOKYO,” is a street-snap project that visits Tokyo’s real-life cultural scenes and documents the people living in the city right now—revealing sides of them that cannot be seen through fashion or job titles alone. This time, we visited the launch event for “COMET MAGAZINE VOL.6,” held in Harajuku.

COMET© is a creative crew attracting attention in Tokyo’s youth culture scene. A launch event celebrating the release of “COMET MAGAZINE” VOL.6, produced by the crew, was held in Harajuku on April 25.
The venue was “CC STORE,” a concept store run by YAMEPI© of COMET© and JIN of PAT MARKET. In this space, where fashion, art, music, and other cultures intersect, people shaping Tokyo’s youth culture right now came together.

“COMET MAGAZINE” is an independent magazine produced entirely by its members, from editing and design to printing and sales. Through their own perspective, they document Tokyo street culture and express the sensibilities of fashion, art, music, and the people who gather around them in the form of a single magazine.
The theme of the latest issue, VOL.6, is “THE SPARK OF CULTURE.” Through interviews and conversations with creators working across different genres and fields, the issue explores the moments when culture is born and how that energy spreads from one person to another.
