"A special look at becoming who you want to be." -- FREAK SUGAR

"Packs an especially emotional punch." -- WOMEN WRITE ABOUT COMICS



It's 2002 in rural Rigsby, Wisconsin, and Bethany, searching for stability and an escape from her oppressive family, finds solace in new high school friends. But everyone is struggling beneath the town's idyllic surface, and everything is about to change.

Rigsby, Wisconsin: It's just another nowhere town, but Bethany has finally found some stability here, far from the baleful, watching eyes of her oppressively disapproving mother. Jeordie and Erik are welcoming new friends, and even Anna seems happy to make her feel at home, despite hints of issues even bigger than hers.

Amid the placid, scenic small-town beauty, the teens of Rigsby are roiling with struggles over what might come next, where to turn, and what's standing in their way. And when Bethany and Anna decide to go to the Homecoming dance together, the threads start to unravel.

SE Case's painfully beautiful Rigsby WI saga is a bracing, refreshingly genuine tale of life on the cusp of something new. And it all starts here.

Frequently asked questions

You’ve asked, we answered.

Visit FAQ Page

Do you offer free shipping?

We offer free shipping on all orders over $75.

As a small, growing shop, we partner with trusted distributors to ship books directly to you. This allows us to offer a much wider selection while we build toward our first physical space.

We also use tiered shipping, which means the more you add to your cart, the lower the shipping cost per book becomes. So that means, even if you’re not quite at $75 yet, it often makes sense to grab one more volume and save overall.

Why shop with you instead of big retailers?

Every order supports a small, Latina-owned manga shop built by real fans who care deeply about the stories, the art, and the culture around it.

We curate with intention, not algorithms, and we’re building something bigger than a storefront: a space for collectors, readers, and fans to connect.

What is your return policy?

Because of how we currently fulfill orders, we’re not able to accept general returns at this time.

The only exception is if your order arrives damaged or incorrect. If you experience either, please reach out to us at casitademanga@gmail.com
and we’ll be more than happy to personally help you with a damage/error return.

Can I cancel or change my order?

We move quickly to get your order on its way.

If you need to make a change, contact us as soon as possible and we’ll do our best to catch it before it ships. Once it’s on the way, we’re unable to modify the order.
