In Meiji-era Japan, sixteen-year-old Maria struggles with her appearance and the shame it brings her, especially from her mother. She wishes for different eyes and hair to be accepted by those around her. Her life changes when she meets Rintarou, a charming boy who sees beauty in her that she cannot recognise herself. Their relationship develops against the backdrop of Yokohama, challenging Maria's perceptions of herself and what it means to be beautiful. This volume introduces themes of self-acceptance and romance in a historical setting.
