Acquired from a collection of over 100+ individual shoujo doujinshi works, this is an introductory issue of the imprint ZEKKU by the circle AWSC. Known as Nagutsuke or “Zekutsuke” (なぐつけ), the imprint itself is called Zekku and more or less translates to an onomatopoeic "Smack!" sound in some ways. This work, published on April 28th of 1981, did not appear at Comiket, but seems to have been a fanclub publication considering. The printing is quite nice as is the paper considering, so some funding was quite evident.
Many works present feature early depictions of stylizations that borrow from Mobile Suit Gundam aesthetically in the 1st story. The artist was clearly inspired by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko to some extent. This work is the official vol. 1 vs the already uploaded test print, which was lead by a Tadokoro and Toshihiro Torishima. The group was located out of Machida City, Morino, Tokyo.
