After an accident, Kyonosuke recieves a skin graft to his face, leaving him permanently scarred. This disfigurement makes Kyonosuke a target for constant bullying.   Akira, his classmate, is trying to come to terms with her gender dysphoria but is beaten by her father for saying she wants to be a girl. When they meet and fall in love, they decide to escape their toxic environment together. But are they strong enough to accept each other, and themselves, for who they are?   A stunning and heartfelt manga trilogy from debut author-illustrator Brandon Arias,  Scars deftly tackles childhood trauma, bullying, and the issue of growing into one's own identity.   This gorgeous, fresh, slice-of-life drama is sure to become a classic alongside such timely and relevant manga titles as  Orange by Takano Ichigo and  Our Dreams at Dusk by Yuhki Kamatani.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2026-02-03\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harry N.
