From an award-winning author comes this collection of four emotionally gripping stories about high schoolers' acceptance of themselves...and each other.

High school student Ichika has a secret. She allows Riku, her childhood friend and crush, to explore his interest in cross-dressing by acting as his personal dress-up doll: a canvas upon which he can present his ideal of feminine beauty. One day, an unexpected kiss upends this arrangement, sending Ichika fleeing in a panic. What was she really hoping for in their private meetings--and what does Riku want, deep in his heart?

And they're not the only students in their class who struggle with love and identity. In this collection of four coming-of-age tales, teenagers grapple with hidden fears and secret desires as they search for themselves in a complicated world.

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.
