What is ACE?

“ACE” is a fictional sports magazine featuring the characters from Daiya no Ace as athletes of various sports, and their journey to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

The zine dimensions are expected to be around 8.5” by 11”, fully colored with a softcover, and perfect-bound! It is estimated to be about 80 pages and will be strictly safe for work (SFW).

All content will be ship-free. We will encourage our contributors to use as many characters within the Daiya no Ace fandom as possible.
