FLOWERS & BEES (Hana to Mitsubachi), by Moyoco Anno. First published in 2000 and first published in North America in 2003.
PLOT:
Mosau Komatsu is a sloppy loser of a high-school student, and all he wants is a girlfriend. In desperation, he tries a makeover at a salon called The World of Beautiful Men. It seems to work, so Mosau keeps coming back for more. From that point on, he becomes the pet project for sisters and co-owners Kiyoko and Harumi. Through their patented system of fashion, style, and verbal abuse, they are determined to turn Mosau into a (reasonably) confident and attractive man of the world.
