Chiisakobee 4

From award-winning author Minetaro Mochizuki, for fans of Wes Anderson, comes a poetic literary manga

After a fire burns down his family business and claims the lives of his parents, the young heir and master carpenter Shigeji vows to rebuild the failing venture with his late father's words in mind: "No matter how much the times change, what's important is for our kind to have compassion and dedication."

Shigeji's work rebuilding Daitome after the big fire as well as having to care for orphaned children may have derailed his plans for life, but with Ritsu by his side, Shigeji may realize that what he needed was right at home all along.

This bold and ambitious reinterpretation of Shūgorō Yamamoto's classic historical novel Chiisakobee is brought to life with the full flourish of Minetaro Mochizuki's bohemian brush!
