As announced previously, the design for the charity T-shirts of this year�s '24 Hour Television' was completed jointly by Arashi�s Ohno Satoshi and modern artist Nara Yoshitomo. In 1.5 months, sales of the T-shirts have reached 596,203 (as of August 9th). This surpasses the 458,306 shirts sold in 2008, and currently holds the record for most number of '24 Hour TV' T-shirts sold. With sales averaging at about 2000 daily, it is expected that sales will surpass 600,000 soon, if it hasn�t already done so.
This year�s charity event is titled �24 Hour Television 35 Ai wa Chikyuu wo Sukuu� and the theme is �Mirai (Future)�.
On the front of the T-shirt is a picture of a child with the words 'Mirai' in his eyes and two halves of a dicotyledon sprout, signifying a start towards the future,�on his head . The back of the T-shirts carries a calligraphic rendering of the words �Mirai�, written by Ohno in bold strokes. It is the first time multiple artists have collaborated for the T-shirt design.
The event will be broadcasted on August 25th and 26th.
