The illustration, taken from the Tomie: Adopted Daughter chapter, appears to change color depending on the angle, evoking Tomie’s elusive beauty and eerie allure. Her clear eyes and lips are also boldly printed, making a strong visual impression.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1101.com\/store\/techo\/2026\/detail_images\/oc26_jito\/extra_02.jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe back of the cover is mint green and also features an illustration of Tomie.

Hidden in the pocket where the Hobonichi Techo book slips in is a disturbing illustration—a stark contrast to the beautiful Tomie on the front.
