A dynamic, full-color manga that brings the Cold War era and modern history to life! Dive into the global tensions, pivotal events, and influential figures that shaped the world during and after the Cold War, all through engaging storytelling and vivid illustrations.

Explore the twists and turns of global history in this action-packed manga that takes readers from the aftermath of World War II through the Cold War--and beyond. Follow the rise of superpowers, the nuclear arms race, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the shifting world order that followed the Soviet Union's collapse. Along the way, discover how powerful movements for civil rights and human dignity--from the struggle for racial equality in the United States to broader global human rights activism--challenged societies to live up to their ideals during this tense era. This vivid historical adventure weaves together dramatic storytelling with real-world context, helping readers understand the forces that continue to shape international relations today. This book also includes rich nonfiction content featuring real photographs, historical timelines, political maps, and key facts that connect manga moments to actual events.

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.
