The sequel to classic manga Gunsmith Cats!

When mobster Goldie returns with amnesia, Rally is forced to help Goldie remember her past--for example, like that time Rally tried to kill her!

Rally Vincent runs Gunsmith Cats--a gun shop in Illinois with her partner, demolitions expert and former call girl Minnie-May Hopkins. But Rally's "real" job doesn't pay the bills, her hobby does. And her hobby is bounty hunting, bringing the most wanted men and women in the Chicago area to justice--dressed in her sharp suit and tie, and driving her Shelby Cobra GT 500!

In Gunsmith Cats Burst Omnibus vol. 2, an illegal road race exclusively for V8 freaks is underway. While big-money bets from the audience are flying fast and furious online, Rally's behind the wheel of her new Mustang II King Cobra to keep a tail on Bean Bandit. Bean's the favorite to win the race...but his obsessed nemesis Detective Percy is in the contest too. And Percy's not what you'd call a clean cop--in fact he's so dirty, he's taking a 10% cut of the bets...plus he plans to throw the odds by having Bean wrecked by hired mercenaries armed with rocket-propelled grenades!

Then it's back to Rally's side hustle of bounty hunting--but before she can collect on a Mafia informer who's jumped bail, he's downed by a sniper working for none other than Rally's own arch-enemy, Iron Goldie. She's been assumed deceased ever since Rally put a bullet in her head, but Goldie's not out for revenge--because she doesn't remember who shot her! There's more than just old grudges at stake; Goldie's also forgotten her valuable designer drug formula, and her henchman wants Rally's help in getting his boss's memory back. That might prove a little dangerous for Rally, but the Mob's hostage might convince her to cooperate...

The Gunsmith Cats Burst Omnibus is using the 2000s unflopped version of the manga, so that it reads in the original Japanese style, from right to left.

For mature audiences.

Collects chapters 22-50 of Burst, plus the final chapter "Faces of Chicago."

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.
