About pictSQUARE

The development of pictSQUARE began from the idea of holding a Doujin exhibition sale in a virtual space after Events being canceled or postponed due to the COVID-19.

It is currently available in beta and there are many shortcomings.
At pictSQUARE, we are committed to providing better services, and we believe we need to have a dialogue with everyone.
We have set up a window for direct communication between you and the administration via request forms, official X, etc.
We would appreciate it if you could share your thoughts and opinions.
