== Plot ==
Butako seems like a typical 13-year old as she goes through life any girls her age would go through such as misogyny, sexual harassment, puberty and even her future but underneath this is her secret: she has a face of a pig and a body of a chubby girl (having been a descendant from other pig-faced people) and she keeps it hidden with her mask, hat and even fake ears.
