An excellent comic about a JPN woman who left home at a young age & returns to Japan for a family tragedy. It‘s poised & intimate & softly explores complicated topics, particularly about being an ambitious woman in a socially oppressive society & the alienation that comes from moving away. The art is exquisitely hand-drawn sketch style with meticulous use of watercolour & muted sepia-style shades. Overall, it‘s beautifully bittersweet.
4.25/5.
