Acception, Vol. 1 - (Paperback)

About the Book

It's the start of a new school year at Apollo High and Arcus just moved from England to the Netherlands. With his rainbow-colored hair and love of all things fashion, Arcus is anything but your average teenager. He's an upbeat independent thinker, proud fashionista, and like the rest of us, is looking for a few friends to call his own. This won't be easy for Arcus, because his best options for friends are prickly goth Maud and self-centered queen bee Iris.

It's the start of a new school year at Apollo High and Arcus just moved from England to the Netherlands. With his rainbow-colored hair and love of all things fashion, Arcus is anything but your average teenager.

He's an upbeat independent thinker, proud fashionista, and like the rest of us, is looking for a few friends to call his own. This won't be easy for Arcus, because his best options for friends are prickly goth Maud and self-centered queen bee Iris.

Plus, he has to navigate being bullied for his unique brand of self-expression while balancing school life and his secret identity as a super popular fashion designer and blogger. But leave it to the always-optimistic Arcus to find the silver (and glittery) lining in everything.

This volume collects Season 1 (episodes 1 to 42) of the charming WEBTOON comic Acception.
