Your application is now complete! We will find your submission from the tags and repost it on the official contest account.

Our ACDC RAG design team and staff will discuss and select one or multiple designs from each category. While we used to take the number of "likes" into consideration for selection in previous years, we have changed the rules to prioritize fairness. However, we will still check the "likes" and "comments" for reference and appreciate your support for your favorite designs!

① Winners will receive ACDC RAG clothing products based on their designs.
② Winners will receive a 10,000 yen coupon that can be used for shopping at the ACDC RAG online store.
③ The names of the winners (artist names) will be featured on ACDC RAG's social media and online store pages.

We are accepting designs for T-shirts in three categories: Pop, Pastel, and Dark. You can submit a design for one or more categories, but please note that only one design per category is allowed.
