The jacket for Sex Machine's 5th single + one-man DVD 2 CD "Shinsekai e" to be released on April 6th has been revealed.

The jacket design of this work is drawn by Tsuchika Nishimura, an up-and-coming manga artist who is active in various fields, such as winning the 15th Agency for Cultural Affairs Media Arts Festival Manga Division Newcomer Award in December 2011.

Sex Machine and Tsuchika Nishimura are both from Kobe. This collaboration was realized because of the close friendship with Tsuchika Nishimura even before her debut.
