Takumi of the Snow Village

In the remote mountain village of Yukimura, life is as harsh as the endless snowfall that blankets the land. Fifteen-year-old Takumi shoulders the burden of his family's survival, caring for his sick mother and four younger siblings while resenting the father who abandoned them after the war. With every passing day, the snow grows heavier, and so does the weight on his shoulders.

When whispers of bandits in the mountains reach Yukimura, Takumi takes it upon himself to protect his family and his village. But the threat of violence is only the beginning. As winter deepens, secrets buried in the snow begin to surface-secrets about his father, about the war, and about Takumi's own strength.

Facing relentless challenges, Takumi must navigate betrayal, survival, and the fragile bonds of community. In the unforgiving cold, he discovers that courage isn't the absence of fear but the will to stand firm against it.

With each step, he's forced to decide: will he crumble under the weight of his responsibilities, or rise as the protector his family and village so desperately need?

Takumi of the Snow Village is a heartfelt coming-of-age story of sacrifice, resilience, and the unbreakable ties of family, set against the brutal beauty of a snowbound world.
