No More Cry!!!
(Naku monka)
by Nobuo MIZUTA
Two brothers were abandoned by their irresponsible father and separated early in life. Despite their unhappy childhood, they keep smiling as though to convince themselves not to cry. But they don’t know each other’s faces or names yet… It’s the beginning of a story full of laughter and tears about a family no one has ever seen before!
