Insisting on being called “Josee”, a character from her favourite book,
Kumiko Yamamura is stubborn, unruly, and not even her thick Osakan accent
can hide the sharpness of her tongue. However, she’s also trapped in a home
ill-prepared for her disabilities and hidden away from a world she’s been
told is full of hostile “tigers”. When she literally falls into the arms of
aspirational college student Tsuneo Suzukawa, however, the two start to see
the world and what they want from it in a whole new light
