The House Where Haru Lives

A story about a new type of family. After Hinata’s parents divorce, she goes with her mother to live with her grandparents, but then her cousin Haru also comes to live with them. Haru’s father had died of an illness, and when his mother remarried, his grandparents adopted him as an heir. To begin with, relations in this new family of five are strained, as conflicting feelings and misunderstandings arise between them. However, after Haru picks up an abandoned kitten one day, they gradually draw closer together and create a new family unit. This process is sensitively portrayed from Hinata’s perspective.
