Asakawa Maki no Sekai (English: The World of Maki Asakawa) is the debut album by Japanese musician Maki Asakawa, released in September 1970 by Toshiba Records.^[1]

A number of the tracks were co-written with Shūji Terayama,^[1] though the album contains covers of the American folk standard "(Sometimes) I Feel Like a Motherless Child" and Salvatore Adamo's "Tombe la neige". She made her name with the album, and at the time of her 2010 death, "Yo ga Aketara" and "Kamome" (the album's first and seventh tracks) were among her best-known songs.^[2]
