an akuroku zine
focusing on memorabilia, letters & other sentimental objects

about

  1. Memories Burning Red is a free, digital Kingdom Hearts zine dedicated to the ship Axel/Roxas (or Akuroku) with a focus on memorabilia, letters & other sentimental objects. This theme can apply to both canon and AU works – there's so much potential there!

  2. There will be both SFW and potentially NSFW/problematic works, depending on interest check results.

  3. We're here to explore and expand an integral relationship to the Kingdom Hearts series, and we hope you'll join us!
