Plot[]
Although Akira Ijuhin is a master of disguise and an expert thief, nothing could prepare him for his first destined meeting with the heartbroken Utako Okawa.
On that fated night, the famous thief has the only thing that he does not even think of (considering his age of nine) stolen – his innocent heart. The two fall in love, but what is Akira to do about his secret job?
The whole two volumes of the series is a melody of love between the renowned mysterious thief 20 Faces and a smart kindergarten girl Utako Okawa.
Despite their very young age, they also struggle through any obstacles in order to reach the heart of one another, to strive for each other's love.
