Handsome young calligrapher Seishuu Handa heads back to Tokyo for a high-stakes competition, but the island's absence throws his creative flow into chaos. His brush can't find the right stroke when he's miles away from the quirky neighbors who inspire him most. Meanwhile, the islanders are hilariously lost without their Sensei, turning everyday life upside down in his wake. This volume serves up a mature, heartwarming comedy as city ambition collides with small-town soul. Autumn brings a bountiful harvest of laughs and tender moments you won't want to miss.
