Synopsis
On a stormy winter's day, a great wave sweeps baby Naoki into a fisherman's boat. As years pass, Naoki remains small, prompting him to question his origins. A mythical fish offers guidance, leading Naoki on a journey of self-discovery. Inspired by Hokusai's renowned woodcut 'The Great Wave,' this tale explores themes of identity and transformation, complemented by illustrations that echo the artist's style.
