Plot

Just before his 14th birthday, On Izuma learns from his parents that he is descended from the legendary Tengu, and that he must follow their custom of living in seclusion for one year once he turns 14. Traveling from New York City to Japan, On meets his older brother and fellow Tengu, Motoi, who lives in a rural farm away from civilization despite being located in the middle of Tokyo. Together, with a mystical talking family dog named Mugi, On adapts to his new agricultural way of life.
