A coterie magazine / doujinshi from the circle Strange World. I have two copies of this particular book, one I purchased from YAJ and another given to me by M in 2024. M participated with this particular group, however, as he put it, this group was primarily comprised of college age SF and manga fans. This work includes documentation of a Mobile Suit Gundam fan film called "Departure", a film that speaks on Amuro's longing for Lalah post the One Year War among other themes, such as his relationship with Char. This film is considered lost, and to date, this is the only work that fully documents its contents. This journal was edited by the organizer Akira Yuki (sometimes billed as Akiyuki Yuki), Anri Eri and Jun Akikaze.
