Originally published in 1995 under Shogakukan’s Big Spirits imprint, 100 gathers a series of short manga and illustrations that capture Taiyo Matsumoto’s early sensibility—introspective, atmospheric, and quietly surreal. Through minimalist storytelling and fragmented imagery, the book bridges artbook and narrative experiment, offering a glimpse into the themes and visual language that would later define his work. A rare, self-contained volume charting his evolution toward poetic abstraction.
