the children yearn for the rice paddies

I love the balance between the realistic and hopeful tones of this manga. Reminded me a lot of Uncomfortably Happily, although that one was more depressing than this manga. How does it feel to live in the countryside after years of city life? This manga definitely showed that dilemma and how the human spirit is able to adapt to any situation with the right determination and courage to face the challenge.

Many thanks to Kodansha Comics and Netgalley for the e-ARC!
