The concept of the collection is “A world filled with creator’s favorite & black elements! It will continue to expand and evolve as long as the collection lasts.”

Interview with Kuteko

『The Little Devil Kuroko』

We took the first letter of each word

KiraBlue

Kuteko, nice to meet you!
Quickly, what is the origin of the name “Kuteko”?

Kuteko

Originally, the park was called “The Park with the Black Balance,” but since it is long, we changed the name to “Kuteko” by taking the first letter of each word.

KiraBlue

So that’s the reason.

I was wondering why the name was changed to Kuteko, so that clears things up! haha

As I thought in the interviews with other creators, I feel that the way the name is given shows the personality of the creator.

KiraBlue

How did you get started as an NFT creator?

Kuteko

At first, I just posted my original illustrations on Twitter, but when a follower told me about NFT illustrations, I started working as an NFT creator.

I use only one phone for production, and draw all the main lines/colors, etc. with a single finger

KiraBlue

In what kind of working environment do you create your works?

Kuteko

The work environment is produced with a single smartphone!

KiraBlue

What? It’s amazing that you produce your work with a single smartphone!

What kind of procedure do you use to draw with your phone?

Kuteko

I draw only the preliminary line drawing in analog, and after loading the preliminary drawing to my phone, I draw all the main lines/colors, etc. with a single finger.

Therefore, I think the picture has the warmth of a hand-drawn picture.

KiraBlue

Even though the preliminary sketch is made in analog at first, it is very time-consuming to draw it with a single finger.

But I was convinced that the accumulation of these processes leads to the warmth with an analog feel that is unique to Kutsuko.

Pop & Dark theme

KiraBlue

How did you come to your current style?

Kuteko

My style used to stray, but once I had an axis for my paintings, I was able to unify them into the style I have today.

I think the theme of “pop and dark” had a great influence on my work.

A collection that builds an entire worldview from scratch

KiraBlue

Why did you start the NFT project called “Kuteko World”?

Kuteko

I have always wanted to do a collection that is not limited to single illustrations, and after some thought…

I have always wanted to do a collection that is not limited to a single illustration.

KiraBlue

The idea of a collection that is not limited to illustrations alone is beyond the boundaries of creators.

Kuteko

If the entire world is built, it is possible to create a record company setting within the world and add concept art and characters for the company, and then sell music NFT with jackets in the form of CDs from the company.

KiraBlue

It is true that once the world view is constructed, various developments are possible.

Since music NFT is becoming a little more popular, this approach may lead to interesting developments.

I’d be squeamish if the little devilish looking girl had taken pity on me

『The Little Devil Kuroko』Version with voice
KiraBlue

I understand that “Kuteko World” has a setting.

Kuteko

Since the core setting is a worldview filled with the likes of black and creators, we decided to make the first main character, “The Little Devil Kuroko,” work at a black company as a black element.

The recorded voice also includes expressions that are a bit dark and black corporate, such as the manager being overworked.

KiraBlue

That’s quite a black element. haha

The version with voice of “The Little Devil Kuroko” is posted above, so everyone can listen to it.

After the manager…
Hmmm, too black.

Kuteko

The visuals are completely crammed with the things I like about Kuteko, and the current visuals were created just because I would be so excited if a little devilish looking girl took pity on me. lol

KiraBlue

The gap between the appearance and the appearance makes me feel a little cuddly.

I hate hope and happiness and there is no light

『Black uniform-chan』Version with voice
Kuteko

The second main character, “Black uniform-chan,” was a black element that made me sick at heart.

I wanted to express not just sickness, but a masterful sickness, so I made the character think of humans as stupid and incompetent, and set him up to dislike both hope and happiness.

As a result, this character hates hope and happiness and has no light, so he can act without hesitation toward his goals (because he has nothing to lose), and even if he is harassed, he thinks that people are just like this anyway.

KiraBlue

Quite a bit, it conveys a sense of sickness.

But I felt that Kuteko’s ability as a creator was demonstrated by the fact that the story was well told and not just a sick character.

Personally, I like the combination of scissors and uniforms. haha

Kuteko

As for the visuals, Black Uniform-chan also has a look that is completely packed with the likes of Kutsuko, with eyes that have a somewhat psychopathic flavor and a slightly sexy uniform that shows her navel, which is a charm point! lol

I want to polish it up to the point where it compares favorably to the real world

KiraBlue

Do you have any goals you are aiming for at NFT, Kuteko?

Kuteko

I want to polish the world view and reality of Kuteko World to the point where it can be compared to the real world.

KiraBlue

As it gets more and more sophisticated and the “Kuteko World” becomes more and more ambiguous as to whether it is real or virtual, we are going to find another different world.

Quite, I am looking forward to it.

Betrayal of those who have some idea of the path ahead

KiraBlue

Is there anything else you would like to tell us other than the questions you have asked so far?

Kuteko

As a backdrop, creation and destruction are also important elements, so I think we will see some shocking developments and stimulating works in the future.

KiraBlue

What do shocking developments and stimulating works mean for the elements of creation and destruction?

Kuteko

This is one expression we do to add reality to the world.

It is a betrayal to those who have some expectation of the path.

KiraBlue

Certainly in the real world, unpredictable events happen, and things never turn out the way we want them to.

I can’t take my eyes off the future of “Kuteko World,” which is being developed to such an extent at this stage.

KiraBlue

We heard many interesting stories this time.

I would love to talk more, but time is running out, so please give a final comment to our readers.

Kuteko

Only those who are truly interested in “KUTEKO WORLD” after reading the article and those who can tolerate shocking expressions are welcome to participate in “Kuteko Ruins”!🙇‍♂️
