In Japan's anime universe, ‘Belle’ seeks to rewrite script on female power

Tokyo — In her life in rural Japan, Suzu is a freckled and shy 17-year-old who is self-conscious about her looks and has lost her will to play music after her mom's death. But in the virtual world, known as “U,” she transforms into Belle, an enchanting global pop superstar with flowing pink hair and a mesmerizing facial design that resembles freckles.
