Pretty Proofreader (2016)

In the heart of the publishing world, emerges a vibrant, fashion-forward heroine, Kouno Etsuko. With her heart set on the glitz and glamour of the fashion editorial landscape, she steps into the publishing arena, only to be placed in the unassuming proofreading department, a world away from her dreams. Yet, this isn't your ordinary proofreading department. It is the unsung hero of the publishing world, diligently examining and rectifying errors in manuscripts, the guardians of the written word. In her signature flashy attire, Etsuko takes on the role of a proofreader with an unexpected twist. She steps beyond the confines of her desk, venturing into the world to meet the authors in person and diving headfirst into the actual locations that grace the pages of the manuscripts. Her end goal? Perfection. And perhaps, a chance to win a transfer to the coveted fashion magazine editorial department. In this labyrinth between her dream job and her current reality, Etsuko finds herself immersed in the art of proofreading, dedicating herself to the craft in her own unique, flamboyant style. Through her journey, she begins to uncover the allure hidden in the details, the magic in the margins, and the charm in the chase for accuracy. Unknowingly, she starts to realize that her unglamorous job might just be as captivating as the world of fashion she initially sought.
