Quotes / Reviews:
A cute story by Tama Mitsuboshi centers on a girl named Mira who has a strange power that she thinks is a disease where the area around her turns into darkness whenever she starts to panic or becomes anxious about something. To control what she has, her parents send her off to a magical physician named Rei, who tries to teach Mira to open her shell. – Noisy Pixel
Mitsuboshi’s art style feels like a fairytale and a children’s book, which helps fit the whimsical setting of the story, as Rei’s cottage that Mira lives in feels like the kind of cottage that is found in old fairytales and despite this volume taken place in Rei’s cottage most of the time, it also shows a lot of fantastic detail from the outside of it to the in of the physician’s home and the cute small creatures that live around it. – Noisy Pixel
