Conducted manga interviews with 17 salt craftsmen
KODAKARAJIMAThe side story of the island manga Maharajima is salt.
Salt, the blessing of the mother sea.
The island and the sea are closely connected both physically and spiritually.
Salt is an example of a carefully crafted primary industry product that Japanese artisans excel at.
In order to draw pictures of the salt production site, I visited salt production workshops throughout Japan while conducting research on the island.

KODAKARAJIMAI haven’t been able to keep up with writing articles and creating videos.
I plan to post on YouTube.
If you are interested in Japanese salt as an art form, please subscribe.
Right? Japanese salt is amazing!
It’s just that the world prioritizes price. The footage itself is valuable.
