Minotauros no Omoibito

A massive and kind-hearted Minotaurus guards a forest when a group of humans intrude. He drives most of them away, but one remains—Captain Ruviné, a skilled and well-known female warrior. She stays behind to provoke a fight, confident in her abilities. To repel her, a forest spirit gives the Minotaurus a book of human expressions left behind by one of her soldiers. The book is unreadable to him, yet it proves useful, though in an unexpected manner. The story explores how these two figures, from opposing sides, gradually begin to understand each other through a series of miscommunications.
