Barakamon series by Satsuki Yoshino

Seishuu Handa is a young calligrapher who moves himself to an isolated, rural island to focus on his work.  Unfortunately, the local residents are not letting him do that.  The head chief constantly interrupts him to talk as does the school headmaster.  But the worst is the young girl Naru who believes his house is her base of play.


While the main character Handa is 23 years old, he comes across as a teenager in his awkwardness in dealing with other people.  He wants to be alone to focus on his work and yet keeps getting involved in the his neighbors.  I would recommend this manga series for older teens in interest.
