About the project

In 2012, Corinthians won one of its most important titles: the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan. But the highlight of the competition went beyond the victory. Inspired by the invasion, we created a manga that portrayed the most exciting moments of the fans' journey. The illustrations and stories were designed to genuinely portray Brazilian fans. We sent the manga to influencers and fans along with the new jersey. The manga illustrations were displayed in an exhibition, along with the captain's armband, tickets to the match, and the title cup itself inside a container brought from Japan to Corinthians' home: the Neo Química Arena.
