People appear on T-shirts. Artist: Centchihiro Chicchi

It's just a T-shirt, but it's still a T-shirt. Each T-shirt tells an eloquent story of the owner's life. We asked artist and actor Cent Chihiro Chicchi to tell us about his favorite T-shirt.

A legendary live concert T-shirt filled with memories from my student days

GOING STEADY has been one of my favorite bands ever since I discovered them in high school. The first song I ever covered was "Night Prince and Moon Princess," which was also by GOING STEADY. I was also really looking up to Ginkgo Boyz, who formed after the band disbanded, and when I spoke passionately about this, someone gave me this copy, saying, "I want to pass it on to someone who really loves them."

This is a phantom live T-shirt that never came to fruition due to the band's disbandment. Kazunobu Mineta's illustration was also featured on the jacket of the single that previously contained the song "Night Prince and Moon Princess." It's a piece filled with various feelings, so it's the perfect time to wear it.

I was wearing it when I met Mineta-san to write songs for my solo album. When Mineta-san saw the T-shirt, he said, "Oh, I remember having one like this." It was another memory (laughs).

"You and Me's BEAT War" printed T-shirt
This T-shirt is from the nationwide tour "You and Me ★ BEAT War" that was supposed to take place in 2003. On the back is the schedule that never came to fruition.
