One woman comes up with a plan to make her best friend confess his feelings for her--so she can get him to move on. A new novel from the acclaimed author of I Want to Eat Your Pancreas and At Night, I Become a Monster.

Chizuru is about to turn thirty--and get married. But before the wedding bells chime, she has one last mission: make Hibiki, her best friend from college, confess his true feelings to her...so she can finally turn him down and help him move on. Her wish is simple--that once he speaks his heart, he won't stay trapped in the past, but find the courage to step into the future.

Their longtime friend Karin rolls his eyes at such a childish scheme, but against his better judgment, he agrees to help. Yet this so-called Confession Strategy soon spirals in ways no one expected...

A bittersweet rom-com about unrequited love, tangled friendships, and unexpected turns of the heart.

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.
