Haikara-san ga Tooru
Benio Hanamura is a 17-year-old Tokyo schoolgirl living during Japan's Taisho period. Her mother died when she was young, leaving her to be raised by her father, a high-ranking military official. Growing up under his influence turned her into a tomboy—she practices kendo, drinks sake, favors bold Western fashion, and cares far more about reading than traditional housewife duties. She's also firmly against arranged marriage, advocating instead for women's right to choose their own careers and marry for love. Her closest friends are Tamaki, a feminine girl who shares Benio's progressive views on women's rights, and Ranmaru, a young man trained as a kabuki actor in female roles, which has made him adopt distinctly effeminate mannerisms.
