Geometric modern

Black-and-white Japanese manga. A large true-circle head with dot eyes and a short horizontal mouth. A triangle or rectangle torso. Each arm and leg is one thin straight stick; hands are small circles. Hard, even, ruler-like lines. Hair and clothing are few geometric contours and flat planes. White, grey and black only, no shadows. A few straight background lines and broad white. Lively and orderly. No text, speech balloons, panel borders, signatures or watermarks. Subject: A man and woman face each other with a small ball between them. Plain shirts, trousers for him and a knee-length skirt for her. Show both complete figures from head to feet, with only one ground line.
