まがりなりの春

Synopsis

Hanagaoka Haru, a first-year middle school student. After transferring schools again and again, her “special skill” has become the ability to get along reasonably well with anyone, anywhere. Choosing a quiet, uneventful life without causing waves, Haru arrives at her fourth transfer school, in Kitami City, Hokkaido. There, she meets Kutsune Mashiro, a girl completely devoted to the sport of curling. The moment Haru encounters curling—and Mashiro—she feels a sharp, almost painful surge of passion and longing she’s never known before. Sliding, colliding, and pushing forward— This is a sparkling coming-of-age curling story about awkward yet earnest middle school girls!
