Monogatary.com is a novel submission site where users can freely submit “stories” to “topics” given by the site’s management every day, and have fun reacting to them in various ways, such as adding illustrations and comments. The past contest “Monogatary 2019” hosted by the site attracted a lot of attention, such as the birth of “YOASOBI,” a unit that turns novels into music, which has been extremely successful, with their hit song “Idol” reaching number one on the global charts.
We are pleased to announce that a reading video based on the grand prize winning work “Koushuu no Tsuki” (author: Kakuhara Shion) from the “Kusunoki Tomori Collaboration Contest Part 2,” a collaboration project with voice actor and singer-songwriter “Kusunoki Tomori,” which was announced on July 1st, has been completed and released on the Kusunoki Tomori Official YouTube Channel at 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 10, 2024.
This work, which is spun through “New Moon,” delicately expresses the real emotions and pain of teenagers, and Tomori Kusunoki’s gentle, enveloping voice penetrates deep into your heart as time passes. Please enjoy the worldview to your heart’s content.
