The book Nanti Kita Cerita Tentang Hari Ini (NKCTHI) containing simple sentences and illustrations has attracted the attention of many Indonesian people and has become a best seller book since its release by Gramedia at the end of 2018. This study aims to reveal the meaning behind three simple illustrations of its characters named Ekso, Ego, and Emo by Marchella FP as the illustrator and author of this book. The approach used is descriptive qualitative using Charles Sanders Peirce's theory of semiotic analysis through unlimited semiosis. The results of this study illustrate that the characters of Ekso, Ego, and Emo are embodiments of the id, ego, and superego which are part of the formation of the human personality proposed by Sigmund Freud. After being analyzed using Peirce's semiotics, it can be found that the three illustrations contain meanings about human self-control in living a more peaceful life.
