Hello, sunshines! As a request from some of y’all, we have decided to extend POs for another two weeks. Now they end on September 7th!

Our Ko-Fi rewards are finally here! We have 4 tiers all ranging from $3-$15 depending on what’s included in them. Please read our graphic below to see what is included in all 4 tiers. All of our sticker designs are included below as well.

For our 4th ($15) tier, it’ll include the main PDF in it. We have decided that the main zine PDF will not be included with physical bundles and NSFW PDF, but may be bought with them as an add-on. If you are going to buy a physical bundle and/or NSFW PDF when pre-orders open, we will dm you a discount code. If you are not going to buy one with a physical bundle and/or NSFW PDF, then there is no need to pay for it when POs comes out.

If you are not going to buy any physical bundles when POS open, we will dm you for your address so that we can ship the stickers to you.

Stickers will be shipped at the same time as our physical zine bundles.

If you are getting stickers only and not the physical zine, shipping cost is already INCLUDED with the purchase so you do NOT have to pay extra when we ship them out!

If you have any questions, please go ahead and ask us in our ask box.

FINAL PRODUCTS WILL NOT HAVE WATERMARKS ON THEM.

Contributor Spotlight: Morning!

Please warmly welcome @kaggermite!

We hope you're all ready for your hearts to melt, Sunshines, because Toto is bringing the fluff in strong with an absolutely adorably heart-warming piece!!

★Why I Love KiriDeku: They’re both characters who just want the best for everyone around them, and gives everyone their utmost support! They’re such sweethearts and open to their friends, and always want a smile on everyone’s faces. Think about that x2. Such a wholesome and supportive couple ❤️  

★If you could have One for All or Hardening, which would you choose?: Definitely One for All. Hardening is a nice quirk in itself, but I’d feel more comfortable with long range attacks rather than getting real close and personal in combat. Plus, One for All has many different attributes to it! Increased speed, to point where you can literally fly across the sky, and increased strength. It’d be nice to have basic upper body strength in my weak body lmao 

★One Silly Fact About You: My ultimate goal in life is to one day have a Corgi and Samoyed at the exact same time and live my life happily knowing I have two adorable pups.

Contributor Spotlight: Afternoon

Here comes Reallycorking! Be careful as their piece will bring you to tears (of happiness) when you realize what is happening. Your eyes will avert everywhere to not miss any minor detail. Trust us when we tell you that the artwork is as beautiful as a starry night sky.

★ Why I love KiriDeku: They are both encouraging, earnest boys with lots of heart! They understand each other well but also have that competitive spark that keeps things interesting. 

 ★If you could have Kirishima or Deku's Quirk: Deku’s quirk would be so cool—super strength, speed, and the ability to fly would be so hardcore (and now that he has spoiler! more quirks that he can access, the sky’s the limit). 

★One Silly Fact About You: I once played “My Heart Will Go On” on the saxophone at a friend’s Titanic-themed birthday party

Contributor Spotlight: Afternoon!

The first person we’re introducing for the Afternoon section. Just like their art in the spotlight, @retrogradestarlight ‘s art will for sure make you have a warm feeling as the sunshines get married. Just pure cuteness and softness. You truly don’t want to miss what they’ll bring.

★ Why I love KiriDeku: One of my favorite things about this ship is the potential! It could go so many ways, but it’s always gonna be wholesome. I think they  understand each other because they have similar origins and have gone through harrowing experiences together. Plus I think even their differing traits compliment each other; they have very different ways of thinking and doing things, but have similar goals, which makes for a good dynamic. And they have so many great little interactions in the manga! For me their dynamic is built on friendship, loyalty, trust, understanding, encouragement, admiration, positivity, and mutual supportiveness. They can smash through any obstacle together, and honestly, what more could I ask for? 

★If you could have One for All or Hardening, which would you choose? Hmm I’d probably choose One for All because it’s so versatile! I can just imagine the efficiency lol. I like the idea of being super fast and being physically strong enough to deal with problems on my own. 

 ★One Silly Fact About You: Before I got into bnha, I literally thought that Midoriya's name was Deku because the fandom back then almost exclusively called him Deku...and I wondered why the mangaka would name the main character something so awful? lmao looking back it's kind of hilarious.

Spotlight Contributor: Afternoon!

Coming in with unabashed, bubbly and soft atmospheres, paired with soft colors and even softer expressions?! We just aren’t sure if you all are ready for @suntails piece, because we sure weren’t!

★Why I love KiriDeku: stronk sunshine boys!! they share a lot of similarities and the ship is so Soft and good, I feel like they have a rly sweet dynamic and could relate to each other's struggles, building each other up to be even stronger than they already are!! 

★If I could have Kirishima's Quirk: i'd punch walls more often, i'd be so ROUGH and TOUGH :0 

★Fun Fact: my name was spelled wrong in my senior year's yearbook RIP  

[kiridekusunshinezine-deactivated]

Contributor Spotlight: Afternoon!

We hope you enjoy basking in the all encompassing warmth of the calm afternoon sun, Sunshines, because when you get a load of @parientou ‘s loving and equally radiant piece, It sure will be hard to tell the difference! 

★Why I love KiriDeku: They care about and encourage each other all the time. They have this matching positive energy and I just know they'd be supportive boyfriends! 

★If you could have Kirishima or Deku's quirk: If I had Kirishima's quirk I'd probably cook more because I wouldn't be as scared of knives! 

★One Silly Fact About You: I have a really slow reaction time! Once I hit my knee on a sharp corner and I only screamed a full three seconds later.

Contributor Spotlight

Watch out because here comes Emi! We remember reading the piece she wrote for the zine and it brought tears to our eyes. You will believe that you saw KiriDeku’s faces and tears as they vow their love for each other just from her writing.

★Why I love KiriDeku:They’re two characters who I personally relate to, and it’s just so soft and sweet to see them interact. 

★If you could have Kirishima or Deku's Quirk: I would definitely have Kirishima’s quirk. I love his quirk so so much, and I’d have a blast doing really stupid things with the hardening, lol! 

★One Silly Fact About You:I can quote nearly the whole Lion King movie by memory

Contributor Spotlight: Afternoon!

Say yes to @neiljortsens as she writes out a proposal just for you to read the KiriDeku zine! With the burning passion of manliness, her story will make your heart explode in anticipation. Her writing made our hearts scream so please look forward to her writing for the zine!

★Why I love KiriDeku: They’re very similar in that they’re both incredibly resilient and have such a deep capacity to love and care for others. I also love how they’re both always cheering each other on. They’re a really feel good ship and, while they’re not always sunshine and rainbows, there’s just something about them that makes me feel like they’ll make it through any and all challenges. 

 ★If you could have Kirishima or Deku's Quirk: I haven’t broken any bones yet and I’d like to keep it that way so probably Kirishima’s! 

★One Silly Fact About You: I can wiggle my ears

[kiridekusunshinezine-deactivated]

Contributor Spotlight: Twin Suns!

Bringing in Pancake, we experience what it feels to hold the Twin Suns close, full of radiating warmth with an underlying, and coexisting, burning passion that will keep you wanting more with the use of their warm colors and burning passion put into their piece!

★Why I love KiriDeku: I love how domestic and romantic this ship can be! The slow moments are what really sell it to me, when the two take time to care for one another and slow each other down~ 

 ★If you could have Kirishima or Deku's Quirk: Uuuh, I think I'd want Dekus, but ultimately end up with Kirishimas lol I'm a taurus and very hard-headed and stubborn, so a quirk like kirishimas would honestly be perfect lol. 

★One Silly Fact About You: I love watching my dog attempt to shove four tennis balls in his mouth cause honestly goals same rocky same (its even better when he tries to take them with him on his walks lol)

Hey sunshines!! We're thinking of doing ko-fi exclusive stickers, but we need your help with choosing how much you all would be willing to pay for them. Doing ko-fi would help us immensely with merchant and shipping fees. The form above will explain more! And as always, thank you so much for your support! ~ KiriDeku Mod Team
