ChainZoku is an interactive story in a fictional world that our team dreamed up. Inspired by our love for fashion, anime, gaming and great stories, we created Zokus so you can join this world and stand for your clan.
*We’re keeping some Zokus in reserve, so we can reward our community and collaborators.
