With an endearing protagonist and luscious art, this seaside slice-of-life story offers tranquility in the chaos of the modern world. For two years, Wakana Kinme has run a laundry service in the seaside resort town of Atami, where she's built a fulfilling life making friends with the locals and visiting hot springs. Although Wakana has no knowledge of her own past, her cleaning services safeguard memories imbued in customers' precious items.
In North America, Funimation released an anime adaptation of the English translation of Kodansha Comics' publication of Hattori's earlier work, Kenko Zenrakei Suieibu Umisho manga.

NisiOisin 's Imperfect Shojo novel was adapted into a manga series by Hattori. This series was then licensed and released in North America by Vertical Comics. Additionally, Hattori launched the Kaiju-iro no Shima manga in Kadokawa 's Monthly Dragon Age magazine in 2018, which is still ongoing. Finally, Yen Press will be releasing this ongoing series in English under the title Monster-Colored Island .
