For this design, we've incorporated the symbol colors of Akita Prefecture into the background and featured "Smile-kun," which has been beloved by many customers since the early days of A Love Movement. We've also added beautiful "eyelashes" reminiscent of Akita's beauties to the traditional design.

Background of Disaster Recovery Support NFT Project
Following an online meetup with the Akita Prefectural Government in December 2022, RokuBunNoni Co., Ltd. and Encrypto LLC have been actively working on contributing to local communities through the use of blockchain technology and NFTs.
In April 2023, RokuBunNoni Co., Ltd. entered into a partnership with the Akita Prefectural Government. As a result, we have embarked on activities to support disaster recovery efforts in Akita Prefecture.
Thoughts and Aims of the Akita Prefecture Disaster Recovery Support NFT
In this project, we aim to create a sustainable support system using NFTs, unlike traditional donations.
The NFTs to be sold this time feature designs by Tetsuzo Okubo, the representative of "A LOVE MOVEMENT," a recycling brand based in Los Angeles. The smiley mark in the design symbolizes the desire for the affected individuals to regain their smiles as soon as possible.
This initiative prioritizes disaster recovery and aims to deepen collaboration with corporations and individuals who share our vision. Together with all supporters, we are committed to helping Akita Prefecture recover as soon as possible.
