In Orisha, Volume 1, the world's most powerful human is a humble African teenager who has the potential to save humankind.

This African shonen manga fantasy features fun-loving teen Aboki, who unexpectedly receives the superhuman power of the Orisha, powerful beings imbued with godlike power who are born from celestial seeds that randomly appear throughout the world and can use their immense power for good or evil.

When Aboki gains a seed, he is reluctant to use the power at all. As he builds alliances with loyal companions, Aboki must also prevent those who wish to use his new Orisha powers for their own conquests. But can he trust everyone around him? Will his happy outlook on life be ruined by a gnawing cynicism that humankind is inherently corrupt?

Orisha, Volume 1 is an uplifting tale of how those with superhuman powers are connected with the planet--and to life itself.

Orisha is rated T for Teen, recommended for ages 13 and up.

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.
