Together, they will take back the power to define themselves in an inspirational fashion manga that asks cutting questions about what it really means to be beautiful--and what it takes to overcome an arbitrary system that seems to respect talent over hard work.

As Jun contemplates her dreams and goals for the future, Aia contends with his colleagues old acquaintances and their own formidable strengths. An opportunity to do makeup for dozens of new adults on Coming of Age Day turns into a chance to reaffirm what makeup means to him and regain his confidence. The stage is set for the U21 showdown! Softcover, 6-in,. x 9-in., 176 pages, B&W. Cover price $13.99.
