Barakamon, Vol. 6 by Genzaburo Yoshino

As life on the remote island rolls on, a high-strung calligrapher balances preparations for a crucial exhibition with the chaotic affection of his young neighbors, from impromptu lessons to local traditions and small-town mishaps. The laughter and setbacks push him to confront creative block, support a teen weighing his future, and inch closer to a looser, more honest style, finding inspiration in everyday bonds and community.
